Live-action commentary; no animation
Also, a question: are we still reporting videos like this and others (still image, gameplay, music visualisers, etc.) as spam? I noticed the description for the "Spam" reporting option recently changed to specifically mention "Promoting shady links, marketing schemes, blatant ad[s]", and so I'm now wondering if the spam reporting option is only meant to be used for those things.
Does anyone have an answer to this question? It would be much appreciated.
The flagging categories are much less important than the notes you write when you submit the flag. Unless it's really obvious, a detailed explanation of why the submission is rule-breaking makes our jobs much easier.
So I should keep on reporting things like blank screens, live-action footage, etc? Sometimes it isn't clear what should be reported vs what should be blammed.
I do my best to leave the obvious garbage submissions up so they will blam. This has a few effects that removing through the mod process doesn't:
- If a user submits too many submissions that are blammed within a short time, they get an automatic ban along with a nice message from @p-bot (I believe) explaining why they're banned and that they should do better.
- A blam is a direct representation from the community that it doesn't want this submission on Newgrounds
- Blams are increasingly rare, and I know you all love to collect them. A lot of really garbage quality submissions are getting past the judgment threshold recently.
That's my thought process, anyway.
