dentro/onefile demo/intro/crack intro
what's the difference between dentro, onefile demo and intro?
i believe i know the difference between an intro and a crack intro but hundreds of crack intros are marked here as intros so i'm puzzled about it too. |

Bollocks to all of that.
Just have "crack" and "some other shite" and be done with it.

Yes, seems like everyone agrees..
To hell with Dentro and shitty names.. Those were only invented to lower the expectations, in order to appreciate the poor results! Real elite doesn't need such excuses ;) |

In the very early days you just had an "intro" and a "demo". I don't see any reason why other shitty names should be use on the C64.
"Fuck de hokjes" (partly Dutch), just take it as it is and don't try to explain something by naming it different.. that's lame :) |

"Intro" wasn't a term for demos in the early days. "Intro" was a term for intros (which introduced something). There was no "intro which are small demos" before Mekka/Symposium had "C64 intro competitions". And before that, "intros which are small demos" existed only on PC and Amiga. But also there they were a misconception because the first intro competition was indeed dedicated to REAL crack or bbs intros, not demos. They quickly became little demos though, just to beat others in that competition. |

ok so it looks like the majority seem to agree that this is a bit too many categories for single file demonstrations. is this going to be passed to the board of directors for further consideration ?
atleast it's good to see a footnote to the intro type to prevent further mistakes. |

I'm still waiting a reply from the mods concerning Groepaz harrassing me. Would you think they care about things other than database integrity ? |

I couldn't see him harrassing you in this thread, Oswald...?
Anyway, I still think a onefiler deserves its own category. |

not in this thread. anyway, changing categories would mean reviewing shitload of entries. thus database integrity wins. |
