Abso-fucking-lutely. If there's one thing I'll give credit to both both TikTok and YouTube for, its automatically watermarking everything that gets uploaded.

Hell, it was less than a month ago when a piracy site's watermark foiled an attempt at uploading pirated anime.

Speed Draw.

Gameplay footage from Death Stranding.

is this what purgatory is like?

This looks like gameplay footage to me.

Slideshow

Props to @gamejunkie for catching this one.

Live action short film, no animation.

If you're gonna flag this as a slideshow, you might as well add the stolen audio also. That kind of guarantees the outcome.

Here's the song that the submission within this report uses, for any further reports.

I don't know if YouTube does that. Certainly CringeTok does it, but I think for the later's case it's up to the users themselves whenever or not they wanna throw in any sort of branding while doing their thing in the video editors. Most of the big names will end up plastering their names all over the frame though, or do some sort of little intro cue. Remember when people used to do like minute to two minute long little introductions on Movie Maker that was just a montage of video game footage, set to Dreamscape?

... dem good ol' days, mang.

I think there is a feature to add a "watermark" to your uploaded videos, but that becomes part of the player in itself instead of being burned into the actual footage. Right now it's just a little icon that pops up on the bottom right of the video screen, but it would not surprise me if that gets changed or YouTube messes with that in the future. They always seem to have an agenda to make their website as torturous to work with as plausible...

No animation - still image

Purple Guy & Firey are 2 of my favOurite uplOads.

samanthaiscool.newgrounds.com Hmmm, not as cool as she may think she is.

New & Old. I'll take care of it IF it passes judgement, it didn't pass the first time.

I love how often this just blams out, and we don't have to do anything at all. x)

Indeed. Just an FYI, I'm monitoring everything in the Mod's Flagged Content page, letting everyone who's flagged have a chance of a Blam. If they pass I'll take care of them.

from discussions with exedor, this is a direction that I would love to see newgrounds go in in the upcoming days or months. Maybe it could be set as the unofficial standard that things that fall under a certain level of rule break cannot be or maybe recommended to not be removed for a day or 2 to allow them to die naturally

and then to prevent abuse of such a system the upload number per day or week be assessed again

this would work primarily for the movies and games portal but it would absolutely not work for instance for the audio portal

I also know (and agree) that this kind of idea will not sit well with individuals that are trying to increase their whistle colour

Salutes @tox from my experience the place that has the most faulty activity is the Undiscovered Artists - Audio Portal

It is more energy intensive to deal with, because there are so many bad actors.

Audio Portal Cleanup is a good place for people who would like to help!

Hai doods.

No animation production whatsoever; just music set to a still image. Seen this kind of thing reported within the past, so hopefully I'm covering this one right. As for the song itself... have you ever seen the Angry Video Game Nerd episode where he covers the Bram Stoker Dracula game on the NES? His reaction when he listens to the music in that game is exactly what is happening to me checking this submission out.

Recorded gameplay footage. Tried looking into confirming what the game is - of course I googled Plasmatron - but haven't come across anything. If it's a game the user themselves made,as hinted in their profile, this isn't the right format to show it off in... as described within the Movie Guidelines.

yes you are reporting that one correctly

No animation

Original: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/rip/917211

No animation.

AI cover of a song.

Have at them.

I don't know about this... These submissions rub me the wrong way, considering the "Zordon" of the team is just... well... A swastika for a head and no, I know for a fact that this symbol isn't necessarily a symbol of the Aryan race, various Eurasia and African cultures use it (In fact, there are people who call the Nazi use of it as hakenkreuz and anything else is just simply a swastika. ), and there is some evidence to why I think that.

For example, in the first episode, a character (0:51) suggests that the team should use mind control to convert either the Jews or the Arabians into Christians, then later on, in the explanation of Uranus, the whole planet was conquered by another planet called "Valve" which were exclusively women, then the habitants, which is the Happy Blacks (Yes, they call some of the habitants Happy Blacks, don't ask me why.) in Uranus prior to the conquer develop poisonous gas to kill ALL biological women, and these conquers are named after a slur against lesbian women.

While there's nothing much I can say about the second submission, I still need someone here to check if I'm on the ball or not here.

Going with my gut instinct here and saying this is reportable.

Sigh, I didn't go through the entire thing, it doesn't break any rules in the 230 seconds that I watched and it seemed to even have a really positive upswing around that mark

it's just poor/low-quality animation

Is this thread a catchall for guideline violating content, or is there a separate one for the art portal?

It's come to my attention there are a lot of submissions like this one violating the rules.

The thread's specifically for content in the Movie Portal and the Games Portal - there was one made for the Art Portal IIRC, but it got shut down pretty quickly.

Also, whilst the piece may have been made using assets taken from somewhere else (chiefly TF2), the author had used those assets to produce something original. You want my opinion, I'd let it stay.

In my opinion it should stay, but per @SourCherryJack 3D art submissions where the subject(s) are not modeled by the uploader are never permitted. As written this includes all ripped, purchased, and commissioned models.

I have been pinged. If the primary focus of the submission is made using assets not made by the uploader, then it is violating the Art Portal Submission guidelines.

As Bluemonday said this thread is primarily for games and movies, for Art Portal submissions all you gotta do is flag a questionable submission and the Art Moderation Team will get to it.
