Banned from submitting Audio?

[Prid-Outing]

WHAT??!??!

I just got this new Music Software and I've been playing with it for hours since yesterday. And I finally made a short random song, and it appears that I am BANNED FROM THE AUDIO PORTAL!

HOW CAN THAT BE?

The only reason, maybe: I submitted a song one of my friends made with his permission on doing it, if I helped him with some Flash. It was a Norwegian RAP song, and I uploaded it. I don't really remember what happened, but it never showed on my account nor on the Audio Portal...

But, WHY would I be banned for that. Maybe there have been a mistake, I DON'T KNOW!

And what should I do now. Just sit and wait for someone to reply? I am waiting for a Moderator, or an Administrator to READ THIS, and TELL ME what really happened or please UNBAN me and let me upload that SONG I am waiting to upload, PLEASE!

if you were previously banned for submitting something and failing to read the submission agreements, then yes, that 's most likley the reason for your ban.

Submission agreements:
Please Note:

When you submit your audio, please be aware:

* You are making the legal claim that it is your own original work.
* Loops you made from existing copyrighted songs are not your own original work.
* If your submission is not your own original work, you will be placed on a rejection list and held responsible for any repercussions.
* You will remain the owner and credited author of the submission.
* If this is your first time contributing to the Audio Portal, you will have to be approved before your submissions are made available publicly (it's a quick process).

In addition, audio portal bans are permanent.

You mentioned you use Magix music maker in another topic. That's probably it.

Too bad Freddie Mercury was also banned, from life, otherwise I'd request he sing "Another One Bites the Dust" right now.

i see what you did there

[deathteknoX]

I have figured out how the moderators pick and choose audio submissions from an inside source....
The moderators rate subbmissions based on there user rank and current user level, so if your rank is very low, then there is a very good chance your submission will be temporarly banned. This is done to regulate how many good songs are allowed on NG's. please note that "good" songs are only rated based on the moderators decission, not other NG's user's votes.

So their slogan, "Everything by Everyone" is actually incorrect, The correct slogan is actually,
"Everything by Moderation", since everything you submit hasto pass thru the moderators before it even gets posted. however my sources idicate that some of the moderators may be corrupte, in the sense that they will form alliences with only the most powerful of NG users, and allow them too post just about anything they want to.

This is very unfortunite fore any new user that just happens too stumble into the wrong position, however if you are banned from submitting, you could always join a group account, but theise are mostly controlled by those "high in power" NG users so if you piss them off you can kiss your membership goodbye.

Newgrounds is no different than any other free networking site in that NG's picks and chooses what content, and who uses, the website.

If this would true there would be a lot less crap in the AP.

Have you got any idea what a load of bullshit you just wrote?
Your user level has absolutely nothing to with whether you first submission gets approved or not.
Moderators listen to the submission and check if it is original work (this means: not a midi-rip, not made purely out of loops, not containing any copyrighted samples). That is all that happens. They either ban or approve based on solely that.

So just stop with your silly theories and be glad we have the audio moderators, they're volunteers, and they dig through all your crap because they want to help out. They don't get a single cent for it.

Be happy that they are willing to do that rather than giving them a hard time and ranting about it while you don't know how the system works anyway.

yes, it is completley true that we have the time to form some gay-ass aliance and build some kind of e-ladder getting all "high in power", as you put it.
it is also true that when my superiours see this , they will delete you from the internet alltogether. The NG-ladder is only one of many networking ladders that reach up to the very top.
You are, however, not the only one who have noticed and learned this horrible terrible truth. You are not alone. You all should unite and make a stand for it. I suggest that everyone of you get together at a certain place at a certain time. Since you will be quite a few people, I suggest a military test-area where everyone can fit.
I will make sure that my superiours will not test any new kind of horrible bombs that very day you all smart and inteligent people get together.

Do we have a deal?

Correlation does not equal causation. You might be surprised (or not) to learn that most of the songs that are shamelessly ripped from legitimate artists and posted up here are done on user accounts that are level 1, with no BBS posts, no submitted flash, no flash/audio reviews, no news posts and no favourite flash/audio.

please note that "good" songs are only rated based on the moderators decission, not other NG's user's votes.

Really? Because I've let some absolute crap pass through. Stuff that, as a user, I would absolutely NOT hesitate to give a zero to.

Man, I wish, what a beautiful dream. Half of the time the audio files we have to approve are so astonishingly horrible that the only ethical thing to do would be to ban them (to protect the public's ears from death by awfulness). Some times, I can't look into the mirror the next day, because I know something died inside the soul of an innocent listener who had to endure the incredible pain caused by the submission that I, personally, approved.

One time, not very long ago, I approved an abnormally terrible submission, and a bit later this guy listened to it. He committed suicide a few days later. If I banned the submission, he would have lived today. Normally, I wouldn't be able to handle the shame, but regularly listening to all these criminally dreadful submissions have slowly transformed me into a cold-blooded, inhumane monster.

no, i can't deal with it anymore... i have to get this out... it's all just too much... the banning, the buullying that leads to the suicides... the coldblodded murder we are forced to execute... it's too much, and i'm setting my foot down right here, right now!

looks like my time is up too, a few of my superiours is online right now, as the image below will prove... i'm sure they're investigating my prescense here, and will remove me from what humans call "existance" very soon...

So fare thee well, everyone. i hope that in the future, the world will learn to love again, and everyone who have power on NG can walk hand in hand as equals with the ones who have no power.

BYE BYE EVER

Rucklo! You have options! We can make this mess go away!!!

Then tomorrow, we can go back to harping on about how it's a completely "fair" and "just" system, whilst flicking m&ms off each other's dicks in gay bathhouses with the rest of the mods. Once you've experienced the levels of hedonism that we've achieved together, you can't possibly go back!!!

[Mich]

You guys ruined it all. I guess it doesn't matter anymore now that I tried my best to hide your secret alliance. Seriously Rucklo.... why.

It was bad enough already that you told me about all this over pm... to me, just a regular user. I was going to keep it secret to save your ass, but you've ruined it for all of you.

And I just realize that they'll finish me off too now, because I apparently know to much.

BYE LOVELY WORLD I'VE ALWAYS LOVED ALL OF YOU

my sense of humor is coming back yay.

As a moderator I should find out and annihilate all those inside sources... but first I have to find those inside sources.
After a long and exhausting detective work I finally found the inside sources.
HERE THEY ARE !!! the infamous inside sources.

Actually you have no idea how important is eye color, skin color, race, religion and mafia affiliations.

So their slogan, "Everything by Everyone" is actually incorrect, The correct slogan is actually,
"Everything by Moderation", since everything you submit hasto pass thru the moderators before it even gets posted.

Actually, the old slogan was "Everything by Aliens" but got replaced with the redesign.

however my sources idicate that some of the moderators may be corrupte, in the sense that they will form alliences with only the most powerful of NG users, and allow them too post just about anything they want to.

Many of us joined "The Dark Side". Some are even not hiding anymore, look at him.

Newgrounds is no different than any other free networking site in that NG's picks and chooses what content, and who uses, the website.

We control also what TV programs you watch, what you feel and what you think... well, for now is just experimental.
Anyway, thanx for the "great information". Because of you I just bookmarked this thread.
LOL of the century.

[deathteknoX]

Rectal thermometers? Is that the BEST you can do, p-shaw, I was certian somone of such high user level would shurly be able too dig further, but I guess I was wrong.

[Repansniper]

Its actually best not to try to make music about other games or movies and doing remixes about them. Because most people can get banned for that but you just have to watch what you say when you write in the description of the music.

[deathteknoX]

But what about flash! how they control how we use music and sound clips when there are soo many users that do just that. have you seen ]sprite TV[ or ]Mortal Kombat Mis-haps Gold[ and dont get me started on all the movie porodies around the NG's website, Do THEY have the same rules? meybye, mabey not, of course you could try posting a song that was banned in one of your flashes and it would probibly pass the moderator's attention span. Of course, that's just a theory.

Because when they upload a song or sprites created by someone else they arent claiming them as their own. when you upload audio you are claiming it as your own.

i dont get what is so hard about understanding this
no copywritten material
no remixes of copywritten material
no overuse of premade loops, (dont make an entire song with them)
{{{{it is ok to use some cut up drum beats and samples but dont overdo it cause then you cant call the work yours}}}}
no midi rips
no stolen material

just make your own songs.. its not that hard

[SymbolCymbal]

and there are no flash moderators. when a flash is uploaded it gets saved or blammed BY THE USERS.
So if you really have a problem with it then go blam and save flash.

Flash artists are allowed to use sprites because they are animating them
t is like us using an amen break and cutting it up and adding effects... its the same premiss.

Using popular songs is allowed because they do not claim it as their own when it is used in a flash...
they are claiming the animation and the animation alone is theirs. BUT sometimes you have users that steal animations. when this found ... YOU CAN BLOW THE WHSTLE on it. then a message is sent to the admins and if they do see it as a stolen animation then they delete it from the system...

But im not sure if the user gets banned... i would guess if you submit stolen flash then you get banned but to tell you the truth i have no idea what happens to the users after a whistle is blown on a flash.

I'm bookmarking this thread, because I know, no matter how stupid I feel at ANY given moment, this guy is a bigger idiot then me. Seriously, how does stuff like that happens? 4 generations of family inbreeding IMO.

Yes, a very ominous figure indeed gave you that information. The FAQ! ZOMG NOES!

The moderators rate subbmissions based on there user rank and current user level, so if your rank is very low, then there is a very good chance your submission will be temporarly banned.

You have no IDEA how much people remain in level 1, just because they think that the lollipop icon is the win. Also, there are no temporarly bans in the Audio Portal. If you try to smartass your way around the rules the first time, you're banned for life.

This is done to regulate how many good songs are allowed on NG's. please note that "good" songs are only rated based on the moderators decission, not other NG's user's votes.

There are 6 buttons, underneath the info box. See them? Really? Great! They give NG users the ability to Vote. If your score is high, people will listen to your stuff. Mods can't give you listens. They can't fake reviews. That's what music in here is about - feedback for improvement and getting listens.

So their slogan, "Everything by Everyone" is actually incorrect, The correct slogan is actually,
"Everything by Moderation", since everything you submit hasto pass thru the moderators before it even gets posted.

Because if we didn't, 99% of the Audio Portal songs would be spam. And commercials. Is that what you want? It's not like they block who they don't like. Garbage gets through all the time. It's if it's illegal. And NewGrounds is their playground(s). They make the rules in here. Don't like it? Fuck off to another website.

however my sources idicate

Haha! What a tool.

that some of the moderators may be corrupte, in the sense that they will form alliences with only the most powerful of NG users, and allow them too post just about anything they want to.

By powerful, you mean high-level and well-known, right? Yeah, it's really outrageous for mods to trust users who have been here a while, who uploaded legal things to the website, and are a part of a community.

This is very unfortunite fore any new user that just happens too stumble into the wrong position, however if you are banned from submitting, you could always join a group account,

No you can't. THEY DON'T EXIST!

but theise are mostly controlled by those "high in power" NG users so if you piss them off you can kiss your membership goodbye.

Or... You can try to NOT break the rules. A-hole. Yes, you can piss them off. But they can't ban you, unless they are mods. If you piss off a mod, he still can't ban you until you break the rules.

Newgrounds is no different than any other free networking site in that NG's picks and chooses what content, and who uses, the website.

If you're looking for a website that doesn't screen ANYTHING you upload into it, you're looking for an upload website. Not a community website. Do you think people would surf in tons of spam, commercials and porn in order to find a song? NO. We do music here, mate. It's a community. Without rules, moderation, and screening, we would burst from the amounts of crap people like YOU would upload.

Facepalm

[Chronamut]

actually you're all wrong - every mod has a gay-o-meter that they measure each new user on - if they are below it - I personally rape them after they ban them.

More than that, some users are paying very much money to fake the results of the gay-o-meter. Contrary of what you think, they fake results to be below so they will get (willingly) raped by Chron.
Some make even more alt accounts to get raped more.

How ever would you explain uploads of "Linkin Park" tracks so much ?
