Entries without files...
Taking the time to add demos with credits & screenshots without uploading the files seems strange to me...
Perhaps someone who's doing it could explain it to me? |

I totally agree on this matter, there are too many examples of this at csdb.

csdb is mostly about information and not files. |

Agree with Graham. I am particularly interested in the socio-metrics and (types of) projects people have been involved in.
Only recently I was adding some info on and demos by the Trays dudes. By googling I discovered they also made a game but could not find the game itself, I however added the entry nonetheless (so someone else can perhaps add it later) as I believe this information is valuable.

I agree with Graham, files are a plus but should not be required. |

My point was that there is an upload function so why not use it & upload the file as well while you're at it, it just takes a few seconds. |

If you have the file, sure ..
(ofcourse when you have a screenshot you probably have the file as well) |

I agree with Zyron here.
there's just no point adding a release without uploading it. lots of people come over here to search for wares and when finally found it they notice there is no downloadlink. it's frustrating sometimes.

that's exactly what I mean actually. it only takes a second to upload the release aswell. |

Come on, there is more to it; why would we bother about trivia and stuff if that is true.... |

I have to admit, that sometimes I have been quite lazy to search through my whole disk collection for a release, and then transfer and upload it. but I did this anyway, even if it took longer. (for Mozkit, it took a year, because I didn't retrieve the disk Mozkit #1).

In my opinion; no file = no release
Be careful with deleting unlocked entries; you might trigger the some automatic CSDb banning mechanism.
A trusted user and great supporter of CSDb triggered this just yet :-/
