Lol, I know what a review is. But I didn't know you could leave one to remind yourself to try and find out the source lol.

You can as long as you don't make it obvious. Did you see part 2 above? Make a review and ask something that'll make them think you're interested and want more info. Sometimes, they'll incriminate themselves with a reply like; "It's actually by a guy named Skrillex. His music sux but I post it here for GD! Everyone likes it and the mods haven't found me yet!! :D" ...Love those replies. >:3

Examples of good and bad marker reviews:

GOOD: Cool stuff! What software did you use to make this?

BAD: You stole this and I'll report you as soon as I find out where it's from.

GOOD: I like the [insert comments here]. How long did it take to create?

BAD: This is not yours!! I just don't know whose it is. TELL ME!!

GOOD: [Comment about the music] Do you have more music posted anywhere? I didn't see any links in your artist profile.

BAD: FAG! FAG! FAG! FAG! FAG! FAG! FAG! And, you're a thief, too! D:<

GOOD: This is good. Did you make it yourself? If not, where did you find it, and is there more?

BAD: This is stolen and I'm going to report you as soon as I finish masturbating to this hentai porn.

Oh boy, Theory of Skrillex? That's the name of a Geometry Dash Level with a song that got banned (it was a Skrillex geometry dash cut, if i recall correctly). This is a re-upload of that song.

Reuploaded? Re-removed. ;) Keep 'em coming.

I don't think I need to even provide a source on this one. This is just Turn Down For What.

All removed between @Mich and myself. One guy you found had 12 stolen works so that kept me busy for a minute. The last one tried to pass off "Owen Was Her", not actual proper name, but if I recall correctly, it's a Touhou song. Man, listening to memes pays off. Watch out for the niconico douga renditions of that mp3. They're even more popular.

@Jackho @Cank @BlueAlpha14, I think we have our proof that the removal from Steam has done no good. HOWEVER, the birds are chirping that change is indeed going to occur in the GD app itself, which will (hopefully) make it VERY difficult for stolen music to get into the game without the users pulling the "play any song over the game" trick noted in my last news post, as well as give submitters the freedom to choose whether they want their music featured or not, which has purportedly been in the works for months.

People are still stealing songs despite the way Newgrounds and Geometry Dash songs now work.

What about removing the custom music privelege? Because, these guys have done more than just steal songs, and I think the majority of them shouldn't be rewarded with a privelege for their disrespect.

We could, but that would do more harm than good, as well as punish the people that actually aren't harming our community, but have come here in peace, so to speak, whether to share their craft, inspired by GD, or otherwise. I'm hoping in the future NG artists start getting rev shares for track use in NG, but at the least, we will all be able to disable our songs for custom levels until that happens.

Ugh, disregard most of my reports. Realized that other guy reported them :/

Yeah, that's true. Although, I can recall a few times where priveleges were removed and most of us didn't do anything in other sites.

I don't give a shit if you use copyrighted music on your own tech. It doesn't take a lot of "Brain Power" (ba dum tiss) to figure out how, sure, and we can't stop you, but more importantly, it doesn't leave us liable for your idle ventures of ill repute and legal stupidity, or cancer. Just don't use lime wire for your MP3's or you'll probably get arrested and fined if you leech off of the wrong peers. Now that that's out of the way, thank you for outing yourself as an immature individual probably none of us here would like to associate with, and have fun playing the same shitty levels that weren't even made for the tired, cliched, overplayed excuses for music you're going to be jury rigging. Content ID is going to ream you if you start doing let's plays, too.

also, you're basically publicly admitting to breaking the law

I'll be bringing up that "use removed songs" issues so that it gets fixed, rest assured.

On business, @BlueAlpha14 and Tebiri, stolen songs removed and users banned. One guy had like 14 submissions so that took me a little minute.

You're one of the reasons the Geometry Dash community is generalized so much. Too bad most users who don't steal content don't speak up here. The bad part of a community is usually the loudest.

I guess my work isn't done, but we may have a lighter extent of stolen audio.

You'd thing people would have taken the message that they can't really steal songs effectively anymore.

JK, please tone it down. Again, this is not a thread for personal disputes or backseat modding. We've got a job to do, and it isn't dragging ourselves down to troublesome users' and abusers' levels. Pun pun pun. If you wanna help us kick some rule-breaking/shitposting ass, keep an eye out for stolen shit and keep a modicum of civil discussion going in here. Same as you would the EGB. We don't want this turning out like the NGPD thread, going down, for lack of a better euphemism, in flames.

@Tebiri, I'll get right on that.

Bad language, and bad advice. We all know that dubstep is not music, and therefore cannot produce something called a "song." That's why dubstep "songs" are called "things," as in, "here's a new dubstep thing I made." See?

Hahaha, I beg to differ. Sure, most dubstep is a bunch of distorted noises all thrown together. But there's many melodic parts to it. Just because it's got heavy mixing and unusual sounds doesn't mean it excludes itself from being music.

And because I don't know how to respond to multiple posts at once and so I'm not making multiple posts at once @cank I could not find the source of that submission. I've tried googling snippets of the lyrics and I couldn't find any songs that matched.

Indeed. It's common knowledge that dubstep was the result of a yellow pixel thing's gastric problems caused by the excessive ingestion of a wizard's magic jam.

Well, now that GD and NG got their stuff fixed with the stolen music, I guess I will be disappearing from here. I might pop in if I find stolen songs, but the possibility of that happening is tremendously lowered now.

Apparently, people didn't get the message.

Well, considering the amount of people that are still going to try to hack the game, it's not going to be abysmally low, but you know. At the very least a lot of good fixes are coming to the AP as a result of all the abuse.

And if using sample packs is not allowed these days, boy am I screwed for having using them.
