Group id #223 : Protovision

There are some entries from Protovision that should be deleted from the database.
Those entries are commercial releases (without a downloadlink) and not scenereleases.

I would say that every action has it's reaction. And every reaction has it's historical reasons and motivations.

But apart from that ^. According to the CSDB rules, commercial releases shouldn't be in this database so let's move them out isntead of talking about it.

The other thing is, that there also shouldn't be cracks of the currently sold games, if the developer (that is still seeling them) asks for that. I think it would be fair. And I don't say mustn't, I say shouldn't. So if the cracking scene and Perff decides to drive the illegal part of this database by the old (draconic (russian term for cruel ;-)) rules, that's really their decision .

Next! ;-)

Freeware originals would of course always be there. Introlinked versions are "available elsewhere", you know.

interisting twist you are doing there. for a second i thought you were implying that "freeware originals" don't have it's place here.

Is it that they don't, if the author rigorously denies belonging to scene? :)

doubtful, A Life in Hell has been denying it over and over, yet he is there :o) it's not yourself who decides wether you are part of the scene, the scene does.

In the rules you say quite clearly that freeware originals are admitted only exceptionally. This is unsustainable.

See and this is exactly the attitude I am talking about and that will probably never change. So be happy with your introlinking friends - I am going to stop writing here soon (after all it has been a good idea to stay away from this place all these years).
