Dude, selfdefiant is a legend! How dare you report him!

Also for your question...maybe cuz he is a legit account and not a spam one?

That made me glad I didn't bring DeathTiger0 into this(though it did cross my mind),haha.I HAD to use someone as an example,so dang my doubts.Anyway,I have nothing against any of the owners of the accounts I brought up here(including knfgames) and thanks for your help!

I see,thanks for that.One question,when you said 'for the time being',does that mean that there's actually a 'time' to report shovelware?If so,does it depend on the number of past submissions or the frequency of submission?

If NsrEscapeGames starts spamming the site with games that are cut and paste material, then they will be someone to keep on eye on. Right now, they have only submitted four games since joining. It's not something to be concerned about right now. If they were submitting a game or two everyday that were basically the same thing, however, then we would take action.

We'll just have to see what the future holds.

. We don't want to ban someone who just found the site yesterday, just submitted their first game, and has no idea how we work here, or what rule they broke. Sometimes, you have to let people run for a while without consequence so you can build some history in order to know how to proceed.

I understand,man.Wow,thanks for taking your time to write that,I think I finally saw the light in that one question that keeps coming up when I report something here.

RECO here. You'll have to read a laundry list, spin around three times, bend over, and assume a position of broadened understanding -- not a wide stance, per se, just enough to confirm your understanding of the Manifesto, Code of Conduct, etc., as described in the archives here.

Note to RECO @EDM364 - It's been a while since we had our "informal" initiation ceremony. Please call those drunken midgets in that sketchy white van that we'll need their services again (of course, cash paid up front). Tell them to bring the goat, the whipcream and the assorted battery-operated power tools - and this time, don't forget the scary clown masks.

I still keep reading over this in confusion. I have that feeling we're forgetting something, like the 13 volumes of Lord Byron audio books to be played over the sacrifice of an animatronic, squirming effigy cemented in day old cheez whiz. That's where the power tools and the midget van comes in, if I'm not mistaken. The goat is purely for decorative purposes, well, aside from distributing the whipped cream.

Hey wait... Wait...

Those aren't the same midgets I had during my initiation, are they? And surely to god that can't be the same set of power-tools?

You would be correct. A little rusty, aye, but yet unclean. I'll have you know we Elite Guards are in possession of standards.

If they are, you may just have to count me in for this ceremony. Any room for an NGPD/EGB veteran? Gotta love me some midgets and whipped cream.

@Byteslinger, do I hear that we have a live maggot on the line?

I miss all of them as well; I can only hope that they have found success and happiness IRL, wherever they may roam.
As for you and your prior nom-de-plume, I never though of you as an ass - you spoke your mind and never took crap from anyone, especially through those rough spells you had. It made you a stronger and better person, and I am very glad, and honored, to have you here as an Officer in the EGB.

A superb idea, as always, Byte!
Come to think of it, I can't recall who had the idea first, @Byteslinger, or someone else. Either way, I'm happy to see it through.

It's actually an old idea; when the NGPD was dissolved, I had conversations with EGSC EagleRock and the other officers at the time. We were originally split on the idea, and ultimately, it was shelved. But time has passed and things have changed, and with it, so did the Barracks.

Oh, @lizzardis knows all about that... he's an old friend around here, and was a loyal and productive member of the EGB.

We had to stop the animatronic sacrifice when a few former associates of the Barracks got caught by Disney security during a clandestine night-op at the "It's a Small World" attraction. They didn't press charges - but they did force the 3 guys to sit through that ride 100 times as punishment. And you thought military PTSD was bad!

As for the goat...er, well, it was used a bit more actively than you may want to think. She's an old, gentle, loving creature that knows how to accept affection in many different ways - and we'll just leave it at that.

Yes, we are in possession of standards - and a lot of other things that may not fully be ours, but we've had them long enough to claim them anyway.

@Byteslinger, do I hear that we have a live maggot on the line?

Absolutely. If you do a bit of digging you'll see @Lizzardis had been quite active for a while, and he is one of my favorites. If he would like reinstatement, I am sure he'll check out clean and be welcome back. What do you say, Lizz?

Hey! I got tagged!

Don't worry about making an ass of yourself, I was pretty young myself and I said a lot of stupid stuff two :P It's sad that there is less activity around here these days, but it's been like that for the whole website :/

I still come by on a regular basis and vote of new submissions every now and then :)

Yeah, I wonder if any of those submissions would be considered "shovelware" because some of them use the same genre (3 guys rock paper scissors, etc due to it's theme)

Well there's two this morning, one yesterday, one the day before that, one the day before that for a total of 12 shitty escape games since your post
