Group id #11406 : Neonazi Cracking Crew
Hi all, I remember when we wanted to register on CSDB. almost a year requesting to we be admitted (literally a year asking to be allowed to create an account) for we be able to upload our stuff... And suddenly, by magic, we see that a group that proclaims itself "neonazi" with only one release during the '87, has an entry in the database. Sorry guys, it's inevitable for us, to ask ourselves, which is the objective of giving visibility to a group called NEONAZI... also that it doesn't even have big productions to be considered of importance for the demoscene (not even mentioning them).
if you have a table with 10 people and a nazi. So, you have a table with 11 nazis ... we are not sitting at that table.
Without the intention of generating discussion.
Moderator you can close this thread.
Best Regards,
The Codeblasters. |

I don't think anyone of the members got account here. It was just added by a database user. Yes, it's stupid group name, and yes, nazis suck, but as far as the dabatase is concerned it's just entries and releases that were (if it's not fake content) released in past and documented here.
There is a lot of more or less controversial content (books, movies, tv episodes) produced in history of our civilisation, and I think it's okay to have them available for the sake of science, instead of burning them. Also it kinda sucks that I can't watch episode of Communityhseries called "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" on Netflix because some people are offended by Chineese guy having black painted face in that episode for the sake of playing character in the dungeon and dragons game. I really think we should be careful with judgements and calls for burning and removal of everything that offends us it's a slippery slope. |

Only single users have accounts. Groups have only database entries. If your group released any production, it should be here as valid group entry with list of members, releases etc. |

We still don't want to generate a discussion about this, what we have written was rather a declaration of principles but in any case, the question remains unanswered: for example, if we as a group, we dedicated to promoting Nazism in our releases (CSDB will surely ban us for ever) but CSDB would keep our entries to document what our group did in their database... then, the Nazi propaganda would be continue accessible on-line in the CSDB database, even if we, as a group couldn't continue uploading releases. Although the account is a single user, the purpose can be used for the same shitty behaviour. Therefore, what is that motivates giving visibility to these kind of groups? none.
Best Regards. |

The motivation is to document what the scene released and releases. No more no less. That includes the shitty releases and the good releases.
And that particular release doesnt even contain "Nazi Propaganda". |

You are mixing two different things. One thing is what you consider to be a good or bad release (which is totally subjective). Another is what is propaganda. "Neonazi" for us in the name of the group is enough propaganda to kick their asses to the fucking hell and obviously not to even mention them as content generators. They offend only with the name. We understand the purpose of the database, there was no need to explain it. The criticism is oriented to the fact that this type of content should not even be admitted.

Muzza: by your reasoning all copies of Mein Kampf should be burnt and forgotten but it's even available on amazon if you want it.
Documenting also the bad things helps not repeating the same errors, or at least that should be the intention =)
You would be surprised how many pseudo nazi/commies/racist/every kind of extremisms (and other human stupidities) are found in some old C64 groups, you only spotted just one that have a obvious hint in their name.
Don't make it ruin your day. |

hi Ian! If I'm completely honest with you, I think that the sale of mein kampf should be absolutely prohibited (not forgotten but prohibited). With a single copy available in a library, it's enough for any idiot to think of himself as belonging to a superior race. And to ruin my day...trust me, I have enough with the nazis who flutter around in Spain like flies...for that reason I clarified that it was a declaration of principles and that I had no intention of generating discussion. cheers! |
