Ok, I've got to question this one. It includes "info" about 'how to make money online.' It includes all sorts of links to outside websites, which is banned in the reviews. It's basically an ad for several sites, which is against the 'your submission must not simply be an ad for your site' rule. The first 'page' of it has one of those 'complete these 'offers' to get a free iPad' scams..er, I mean, offers on it. I doubt tha Tom would approve of all these external site links, and I doubt he wants NG associated or endorsing this by hosting it here on Newgrounds.

The music is from Pegboard Nerds. The footage is from TF2. At what point does it switch from being created by the author to being ripped from someone else's work or vice versa? :\

Stencyl tutorials:

(The green mesh shooter guy tutorial)

(The black box as my character tutorial, visible on 2nd level enemies.)

He's had several Stencyl tutorials removed already, and I left a review letting him know that games from tutorials aren't allowed, since you're basically re-making someone else's game when you follow a tutorial. Yet, he's still doing it.

As for these next ones, I don't know if they're from tutorials, but he's submitting broken bits of games. Part 1 barely works and has nothing to do in-game but walk around. Part 2 doesn't work at all. He's submitting new bits and pieces before the others are even out of judgement. I'd love to see the NG community do their job and blam them, but that ain't happening, as they're starting to pass. There's supposed to be notable improvement between submissions, but since he changed the look it's hard to tell. Nonetheless, part 2 doesn't work. I'd say that's not a notable improvement.

Maybe a note from a mod would help clear this up for them.

BTW, the one that passed: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/623155 barely works too. If you go to the bottom level and kill the bunny, you can't get back out. Yup. They games need work.

I hope they remove it and send him a note spelling a few things out. He's had stuff removed already and plenty of comments in the reviews about his non-working games, but nothing has worked yet. Of course, if people would blam... aw, what am I thinking...

I've already voted 0 on all of them and I'm pretty sure others have since his games don't work. If one passes, I hope they remove it quick. I'd be pissed if it stayed. lol

Sad but true...and yet, the number of true "clock" entries is barely above average *sigh*.

I remember the good, old days a few years back when the Clock crew kept us busy with over 1,000 submissions in one day. But each year since, the totals kept dropping steadily - and now, other than random garbage from shovelware accounts, it's almost a non-event.

I guess they all grew up and got jobs IRL. Who knows, maybe in a few years THEIR kids (Clock Crew II - the sequel) will be back here, keeping us on our toes.

Well, back to the portal I go. We have shovelware to blam....

right back at you, school has been taxing of my time but the master is back. Lets clean up these rotten sacks of nothing.

wow too many useless and dumb people that will never do anything productive with their time have been ended at your hands and you must purge the filth in our waters and rest in the sleeping quarters.. I have enough power to take over 2 night shifts. They make me fucking sick

It's pathetic that people do this with their lives. We need as many people as we can get, so we can ensure that all the shit gets blammed.

Alright, not wanting to sound bitchy or anything, but I've reported this guy's Stencyl tutorials over and over, and the first ones were removed, but not the recent ones, nor his non-working games, but now he's submitting stolen content.

Stolen:

Stolen from Mausland and Crazymonkeygames:

Stolen from another stencyl user per Site-Lock white screen info that said 'It looks like someone copied this without my permission...'. It gave a link, but the user changed something and now all I get is a black screen:

As for his other games, I've already reported them in a previous post, so I won't retype them here. Please, will someone 'attend' to this guy?

I actually sent this guy a message the other day myself, but that was about his non working phillip story games that passed judgment somehow. He just doesn't get the hint that he's uploading non working and stolen content. I think the only message that might get across to him is all of his games being removed and him being banned.

Well. Shovelware is indeed abusive and gets unpublished. All commercial dress up games get instantly unpublished, with enjoydressup being the biggest offender. In other cases, accounts get "blacklisted" when they submit tons of the same stuff. 101cargames is a good example. The started with games that had some variety and then completely switched to submit parking games, thus being shovelware. Usally the portal mods will disuss if an account is a shovelware submitter and then take action.

You're destroying potential Newgrounds revenue when you eliminate low quality shovelware like Dress-up Games. The reason people keep submitting Shovelware is that it gets a lot of hits. More hits, more ad revenue, higher quality site.

The staff wants dress up games to be taken off and has declared them abusive, so I will unpublish them when I see them, since I am supposed to do that as portal mod. You are probably right that it would produce more money but Tom and the rest of the staff rather wants to see more original submissions and accepts less ad revenue to ensure it.

If you want to support Newgrounds though, feel free to tell everyone you know that they should join the site. There is also a supporter upgrade available that functions as donation to the site, if you want to get it.

Rojay again.

He keeps submitting, removing, and resubmitting as new. He did it several times with Rojay 1, and now here's Rojay 3:

Is a Stencyl tutorial game still 'someone else's game' when it's made by the Stencyl people (if it's truly them)?

Problem is that even if it is the real Stencyl people, it's still the same old thing that so many people have submitted. They didn't add anything above the standard.

Also, here's another unrelated tutorial per author comments:

Also, I remember playing this game some time ago:

After quick investigation I got to know author resubmitted the game because he thought previous rating was unfair. I don't know if you guys also chase these cases, but I saw the same thing happening to another submission, contacted Wade about it and he removed it.
