The difference is they can afford to not do that and still do it because they don't care. Tom does care, and most of the time leaves stuff untouched when he can. Sometimes you have to think of the bigger picture.At 11/18/13 04:13 PM, SickDeathFiend wrote:Great point. Flawless logic.dude, it's not 1999 anymore.It's hypocritical for Tom to say that games based on school shootings aren't allowed on his site, since he uploaded just that, in 1999. It's wrong to say that such games will ruin the site, since games in the past based on other similar tragedies did not ruin the site.At 11/18/13 03:46 PM, Sammy589 wrote:
Wait, what's your point? Were people less offended by things back in 1999? Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
I notice you completely ignored the comment about the Vtech game. Made right after the tragedy, it really was just exploitation (unlike this game) and the site survived without censoring it.
Again, the things you are using to defend this act could be used to defend the constant removal of youtube videos because of silly copyright claims. It's their site, they can remove whatever they want. The only difference is that this site prides itself on not doing that and it apparently it has a loyal fanbase that will attack anyone that ever disagrees with the infallible Tom Fulp.
Yes like talking to a wall, not matter how much you insult me I just don't seem to agree with you, surely I'm not understanding yet. There's no other possible reason for me to have a different opinion than you.
I didn't claim "every" was childish, I said you and Wade were acting childish. That's not trolling.
My "insults" were hardly hyperbolic.
Excuse me, youtube doesn't have to censor anything? So youtube is capable of running with zero ad revenue but newgrounds isn't? How do you expect youtube to make money if all of it's advertisers pull their funding of the site?
Bassically what you said is youtube sucks and shouldn't censor things because they pulled something you put on their site. The only difference I see is that newgrounds hasn't pulled your content so you have no reason to care if they do it to others.
Lets not kid ourselves here, this site is about making money, just like youtube. I'm sure tom cares about giving people a place to share their art, just as I'm sure the founders of youtube did when it started. Bashing one just because it's become fashionable is kind of, what's the word? Childish.
