How many pixels is one required to change in a converted picture for it not to be classified as a convert? 1? all?
What about colours?
Is hand pixeling from a photo a convertion? Is scanning and converting own photos acceptable? What if pixels got changed after converting?
Should we delete all sound sampled content too as this basically is also just a "convertion"?
Should all code containing code from codebase be stripped from the db as well?
Should code written in an assembler be stripped from the db, as this is also just a convertion?
If someone adds a lame ass scroll to that picture and releases it as a one-file demo, should we then strip the picture from the demo and keep the lame-ass scroll?
If this fictive lame ass demo was released BEFORE the picture, then I would agree that the picture as a standalone release would not be worth it's own entry, but then that opinion raises some entirely new concerns...

/irony on
what makes a cow a cow ?
how many genes must be the same of the cow to THE cow genes? How do we define THE cow genes for comparison, when we havent yet defined what genes are cow genes?
therefore we can never differentiate between cows and not cows.

If it looks like a cow, sounds like a cow and walks like a cow, it probably IS a cow... |

Quote:Why dont you make a poll, and let the users decide ?
what kind of poll? do you think a poll makes answering this question easier or even more sane than discussing it? this is no yes or no question - most people agree already that we do not want the "crap" here. yet i haven't seen good and applicable proposals on who judges and based on what criteria yet.
Quote:So if you want a glorious RELEASE, make sure it reaches a Party. Yet you can upload your current worktune, latest quick-n-dirty picture any time.
What do you guys think?
The Party staff will have to decide. This seems reasonable and will easyly reflect the Party too. Kickass Parties with lotsa top entries wont allow crap to be released. Smaller ones will have to.
thats a very bad idea which i dont like at all. strong NO
- can you name a single c64 release that did not pass preselection on a party in the past years? thats completely unrealistic. there simply aren't enough c64 releases, even on big parties, to even bother about it. most parties are glad to get enough entries for a decent compo at all.
- handling it like this would discourage people from releasing in between parties. bad idea
Quote:PS: I dont really think a "nominate for deletion" is such a great idea.
Just think of the drama we've got with downvoting. Now imagine what will happen if people can nominate something for deletion.
same here. it would be the perfect weapon for people to piss off other people. and the loudest group of people would "win". and then drama =P
i have another provokative approach though: disallow everything that wasnt released elsewhere, ie really make csdb an archive site. that would atleast force people to put minimum effort into creating a shitty website for their crap. or something. |

Actually, I'm pretty happy with the way things are.
We've had our share of rounds on discussing releases like these. And it hasnt posed a big problem in the past.
If the majority of us agree on deleting something, then away with it.
Trying to force more rules upon us than necessary is counterproductive.
Myself for example. I tend to release my stuff (outside of party events) directly onto CSDb. If your new rules would apply,
I wouldnt be releasing anything outside of partys since I couldnt be arsed to go around and publish my stuff by other means than CSDb.
What's the point of this discussion anyway? We've got moderators taking care of shit like this.
And we've all become used to the repressive gestapo methods (INSERT DIRTY GRIN HERE) of the moderators, deleting things as they see fit.

and i always have to laugh out loud when people first complain about the nazi gestapo moderators, and then turn around and say they dont want new rules, and want the moderators have "free hand" and do their decisions by "common sense". does not compute. |
