Being the a-holes we are we surely will check back on it.
I tried, but it was changed again by moderators. I dont dare to touch it again.
So please tell me, what field is ment for the real name of the entry? And how can I put it so it wont get wise assed again? |

Changing names is just bullshit. It's the publisher choice. Should not be edit by moderators.
BTW.. If title case is preferred, it can be simply done by script |

I think it is
No it's not. It's about CSDb, and naming issues here. Not this release per se. Trivia field should be about the release itself.
I have no strong opinions when it comes to naming, but for ten years I have added gramatically correct names in the aka fiels because it makes them pop up better when searching for it. If a demo is called "The devils tail" I put "The Devil's Tail" as aka. It has nothing to do with being a bitch or wanting to piss you off, it's simply to help people find the release. |

Again: Use the Trivia field: add "Real name of the entry is 'Mothers creation'". That's it. The rest of the discussion is more suited here in the forum. |

So aka field is used for moderator abuse and cannot be decided by "owner" of the entry? And trivia field cannot be used to explain why there is wrong names? |

Oh. You don’t ”own” the entry in the database. Noone does. I removed ”Mother’s” from the aka for now, until we have come to some kind of agreement for how the naming should be handled. And the moderators don’t abuse - they moderate. |

Funny nobody mentioned that true filename preservation is more important than web display. At least IMHO.
So putting the file into a .d64 with "proper" upper/lowercasing would be the most basic way to express the artists naming choice, no? *g* |

Ok, this case is solved then for me.
Please stop bullying in the future, even when its called moderation. |

You have a point there, I'll use .t64 in the future for this. |
