Having an account allows me to post on the BBS, and vote with 5x the power of someone without one, as well as save favouites.

Why wouldn't you get one?

Someone who actually creates quality stuff can judge better aswell as give much better advice to a fellow author. I love how no one feels the same way.

Well, opinions are like butts, everyone has one.

Back when I first started here on this site, I made a couple of audios and submitted them to the audio portal. They're not astounding-they're not really all that good, to be honest. One of them may cause serious brain damage if you were to listen to it. But I did it because I felt that I would be looked down upon if I didn't have anything to contribute.

As I spent more time on the website though, I began to realize that the validity of your opinions is what counted, not the amount of flash or what not you may have.

You don't have to create flash to realize what's good and bad. Your mindset is the same as a person, who when faced with a logical, honest, constructive criticism of their flash, goes "Flash by XXXXXX: -none-".

It's also a very condescending mindset, that just because someone doesn't bother to throw together a quick, crappy flash, their opinions can be ignored or downplayed, regardless of their validity.

So often times it happens, that we live our lives in chains, and we never even know we had the key...

I don't think everyone has to. I just like to watch and I don't see why that would be a problem to anyone.

we would crash NG- 1,000,000 users times 2 (some submit more than one) *2MB (i think the average flash size)= 4,000,000 MB or 4,000 GB. or 4 TB or 4 terabytes- thats ATLEAST 4 terabytes which would need tonnes of memory adding audio and BBS and stuff would make it anything up to 8 TB which would take infinite comouters to store

d00d, the last time I remember an admin talking about bandwidth, they already have 8 Terabytes of bandwidth transfer.

In fact, you're little piece of shit 8mb flash is a much bigger waste of webspace then the few fields in the database of a user.

Not to mention that other users post on forums, vote, write blogs, reviews etc which is also contributing.

I don't submit anything to this site and I'm proud of that why should I to be honest I'd rather not waste my time making shitty cartoons for a bunch of teenagers who won't respect the time put into them anyways.

People who don't make flash don't have the right to beat up an author in their review, only a few people do that, but the rest are fine.
