Cracker Charts
I'm starting to get really confused now. Some diskmags, such as Vandalism news, do cracker charts with no points to any fake groups (Lamer Labels) however, Arachnophobia puts fake groups as well as proper groups on to the cracker charts. I don't think lamer labels should be added to the cracker charts, the lamer labels should represent the cracker groups, and they should get points. I think it is very silly the way Arachnophobia does the charts, and that it is right what Onslaught said in Vandalism news, regarding the charts. |

As long as people release cracks there's a cracking scene.
Ofcourse it's true that things are different now. It's called EVOLUTION. Look it up, pal. |

@cmr: why do you draw conclusions on things which are wrong? I have added Astrostorm and your groups's crack to my encylopaedia page a few days after it has been released, and there is not only intro code in front of the 2K game, but as far as I remember also a good amount trash bytes which give a good amount of the 45blocks, actually the lame intro cannot take 43 blocks, so please look at your own releases first, before you tell others to do, although they have already done. |

Maybe we should call it the Releaser charts then.
Theres definately only real cracking coming out from the oldie groups. Except the odd protected release which is normally coder by a scener anyways and thrown in just for fun.
Fake labels, I always though fake labels were to provide the non quality games to the gamers/collectors out there. And to have fun with other groups. (Hi Alphaflight)
Anyways, It tarnishs your own group when you release it under your own label and then some other person goes and throws it out as Bigpiss/Urine. Especially if the Urine version was to be better etc. Urine is just an example, as I mean any fake group in general.

Rough, you are right! This was a very bad release!!! I admid that (while many others don't dare to do this... or spread lies...). But look at this : some people got their chance now to put Role in a bad light now (especially Mermaid and Celtic, because this forum had another purpose than lighting up the Role release), does this mean that Role is such a bad group? Already some guys suddenly put a vote to the group Role. Well, it is all childisch!!! But like some people don't like to be called ELITE, they keep on doing their thing like in the past : annoying people!
Rough, you are right (for the second time), that's why I will probably try Role to stop releasing games. My apologies to Mermaid (who didn't dare to say what was really on her mind : she didn't like her game to be released by another group). And for those people who like to be childisch by suddenly giving Role a vote in this database, keep on doing your own ELITE-kind stuff (that's the thing which has destroyed the scene almost in the past, and I can know it, I have been there all the time).
Rough, thanks for being neutral and trying to be honest.
And for those guys who don't like Role or maybe me personaly, please be honest and tell it to me! Don't punisch the whole group because of... You know what I mean... It's strange that the old ELITE still get their hands on these databases and so... They don't earn to rule nowadays. The guys who really keep this c64 scene alive, earn to be honoured!

To be straight. i have nothing against role or you personally, you have been a good contact back in the day. I was just pointing out my opinion... Jesus Christ man, get all offended by it. |

Yes yes, thats where the problem is always is... Elite vs Lame... whatever...If you get offended, then you should be. I dont have a problem with you, or Role, thats just my opinion on it.
Why release something that is freeware on the net and FILECOPYABLE... this is what makes something crackable or not, can you copy it with a filecopyer. If you cant, then its not cracked right, or should not be IMHO.
Now, that doesnt go for ingame protections and you can go ahead and FIX something. or shortening or whatever applies.
Everything the last years has ben RELEASES, not much cracking involved, and not a T/S loader is really some protection... At least some people make thier games hard to depack and run.
I think release charts would be more applicable to the current SCENE, and using the cracking charts for the oldies.

Yeah, there's nothing new to crack. Any "Release Chart" should be for people creating new productions/games/etc, or digging up & repackaging lost wares of the past that can't currently be downloaded. Like I said above, if something's already released to the 'net, how can you "release" it afterwards? |

Hoth: Evolution also means ditching things that don't make sense anymore, hence we don't have tails (ok, agreed, with a tail you could type AND move the mouse at the same time but that's just an idea).
There is also a think called emancipation and liberation, throwing away old ideas and thinking of new ones. |

So if something doesn't make sence anymore we should just ditch it? I always thought that the scene was about fun!
Maybe you take things too seriously... |
