Release id #23128 : The Model

Instead of me adding new comments regarding hacks of this, I started this thread. Feel free to add to it.

This one has been altered & re-released several times, f.ex:
Our First Demo
Kraftwerk
The Model
Synthax
Robert Helpline

what's the point of documenting these low-effort rips in the first place?

I think it's interesting trivia, to see how many claimed this to be their work.

I wrote a BASIC "intro" that loads Jumpman (the 1103 release i believe). Please add it!

You think they should be deleted?

The real question is... by the csdb definition, should those be filed as "crack"? =P

yes, because in my opinion, these rips have no scene value and also because the functionality to display them as rip-offs will never be made: like a tag stating it was ripped with just a line of text changed and excluding them from regular search.

The opinions about value are subjective. From time to time we get requests to just wipe out lame stuff like rips and stuff. To a random Joe looking for the original releases a lot of rips might be just irritating, and same goes for people that have strong opinions about what the scene should be, or was, and often just want elite stuff in the database, but of course there is a scene connection and value in these "less worthy" finds, lame or not. It all depends what you look for. Hiding them would be some kind of history revisionism. The goal for CSDb is "to gather as much information as possible about the C64 scene. The sceners, the groups, the releases and events, and as much information about these as possible.". This will include lame attempts from the dawn of time and also lame ass shit releases - as long there is a scene connection.
