Commercial games in CSDB
Is it just me wondering why all the commercial games are being added to CSDB? I wouldn't call "Firebird" a scene-group...

okay, maybe Ben Daglish was not a good example of someone who did NOT do demos but nevertheless had his work end up in some =)
but I totally agree about Thalamus... |

Let me butt in for a moment.
I think everybody here knows that the 'scene' we're talking about is the non-professional one, i.e. the demo- and cracking scene right?
So why put information about the professional scene in here?
I would really like to hear from the person (Matt?) who does this stuff. Does he even understand the meaning of the scene?

Okay then...
Don't tell me anything I don't know about the scene 'cause I have been an active (erm) scener for quite some years. (1989-1994).
Anyhow, if you don't feel comfortable me adding all the games why don't you just ask me friendly? Adding a release without adding the credits seem far more worse to me.
If the webmaster wants to delete all the stuff I've added that day (fokkin' raining outside that day ranning out of pot I didn't know what to do ;) ), that's okay.
Kick my ass

I'm much more interested in finding out if a certain group released a demo I didn't know about through this site, even though there may not be any credits added, than finding out which gamecompany produced a certain shoot 'm up.
And since you insist on mixing data from the professional scene with that from the 'hobby'scene for which this site is intended (unless I'm mistaken), you can't blame me for doubting your knowledge. Or for not giving a fuck how long you've been an "active member" since obviously you don't seem to share the same definition of the scene as the rest of us.
You might as well call yourself a scener because you play cracked games. |

There is a lot of incomplete data on sceneres.. our goal should be to complete those first. |

Since you're the expert, I'd better keep my mouth shut, right, mr. scene?
Oh, before you go on any further, I really do know what the scene is all about. I was editor of WOW's discmagazine Internal between 1990-1993.
I thought I made my point clear (read my previous posting) but you obviously don't understand. Leave it, okay?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to pick a fight here, I'm interested in your point of view. I never claimed to be 'mr.scene'. I do know a lot about the demoscene yes, but the cracking scene I don't care for. However I recognize its importance and the fact that it is as big a part of the overall scene as the demoscene.
I've never considered the pro scene to be part of it as well, so I was pretty surprised to see you do. And sorry, but in your posts above you never even tried to explain why you entered those games, apart from "I was bored". If you can supply me a decent argument, then I will leave it.
So don't be like "well, I was part of the scene as well, and if you don't like it just delete it", but try to defend your point of view instead.
Surely, as an editor of the world-famous "Internal" your discussional skills must be quite strong, right? |

If I were you I'd ask the guys here to add 'elite-smeller' to the list of professions.
Then you could have one more thing to be creditted for with the next Rock'n Role release. |
