While it is possible the user made it (since they don't upload everything posted on G55, just mostly shooters), the rate they comes out at the least makes it spam-shovelware (also malicious since the game tries to force a Facebook login to mine your personal info)

Thank you for clarifying, so should I report it as stolen or malicious?

I went with stolen. I did mention the shovelware and fb login request as well.

User admits to finding video on pavu.com, description supports this. If you go to pavu.com, you get the video.

This is also fishy, it was submitted by the same person who doesn't have any previous shown experience with these things, as well as the thumbnail being a random computer screen, which is something the author of this would not put as the thumbnail. If anyone knows where it was taken from, please reply.

As a heads up, I went looking through the Pavu site to see if I could find it (since the first one is from the main page. Some of the links on Pavu will automatically download media to your computer if you have that enabled, and I can't guarantee the content of it.

I'm not sure the second one, but I would put a stolen flag and justify it with your concerns.

Thank you. I'm using mobile so I only saw that one page. I guess the site isn't mobile-compatible. Guess I got lucky
'cause I didn't get anything downloaded. I will go flag the other one now.

Relatively suspicious, because the author is named after the game, has no profile pic, and the credits say it's allowed to be hosted by albinoblacksheep.com, and doesn't mention any other sites. Could someone give me their professional opinion?

I would agree with that. I think it would be worth flagging for review as there is reasonable doubt. I think mods have the capability to see email and other normally hidden details which may confirm legitimacy.

This one is a slideshow. The uploader says nothing about creating any of the art, and there is no art on their account page. The artstyles vary as well. Also no music credit. What would the flagging category be? Stolen?

Yep. I screenshot one of the images and reverse searched. Couldn't find the actual original, but one of them is used on a Sandy X Sponge fanfic. This image links to a dead dA account.

I now know the term "spandy" and feel dirty. I'm gonna go have a drink...

Nah. Whenever you post something in the forums, you have a window of time to edit your post; usually like 15 mins.

You'll see a red pencil icon in the upper right side of your post, and you click that to edit.

My supporter edit window is 30 minutes. I don’t like double posting when I can help it, in that case the two things I linked were found like 5 minutes after the window had closed. Sorry for the confusion.

Mobile edit so I’d like input. The author of this submission:

Left a review on this one saying it was their game:

Non-mobile edit to say they are the same, one is a college submission in smaller frame.

Quick check of all that user's content shows they just reupload other people's hard work with their name slapped onto it which is very rude of the con artist. Maybe they do not understand stealing and slapping their name onto someone else's the rules is against work and in some places illegal...

Radius College is a legit place in the Netherlands, so I guess it would be determining who has the most rights. If the games were developed as part of a program and collected under the college account (as it is, with the author named in the titles), does that preclude the authors from submitting them on their own? If someone knows Dutch and wants to have a chat with them maybe?

Just seems to be a bunch of gifs put together.

It's a movie; stolen from somewhere. It pops up every so often. I've seen this before, tho I can't remember where. Still, gone. They said they did the audio, but we have an Audio Portal.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2018-05-31 15:30:39


I think we all know where this music comes from:

Then again, I guess the audio portal wasn't a thing when Madness Depredation (if it's from depredation, I'm bad at remembering music and comparing it) was made, so the author couldn't specify whether it was to be used with proper crediting (was Cheshyre making the music then or was that later), but still, no one is credited so I guess it has to be flagged.

It's from cheshyre - Calliope (2007), used in 43 different submissions which credited properly. Never actually used in a Krinkels Madness submission.

It's not a stolen audio (not Big Label) but it is rude to not give credit.

Uses openings from Klasky Csupo.

Barracks Roster as of June 1st, 2018:

Another good month for all the fine members who serve the Barracks - lots of milestones hit, and overall increased activity for everyone.

A special commendation for @Peregrinus this month - besides being our newest top gainer, he's been promoted to Praporshcik, and leads the Barracks in the most forum posts. Certainly, he's a man on a mission, and every month he's setting the bar higher and higher. Well done, soldier! *SALUTES*

And let's not forget our other shooting star, Commander @Guthrie, who's right behind Peregrinus and working hard every month. He just bumped up to Rank #8 in the EGB, sliding past Commander Decky and not looking back. At his current rate, he should reach Supreme Commander by the end of the year! Keep it up, Commander! *SALUTES*

I know we're heading into the summer months, and some of us might actually go away on holiday or (heaven forbid) spend more time outside and off our computers, so if we drop off a bit, that's understandable. Everyone here has been giving their best and doing their part in keeping Newgrounds safe and clean, so to all of you in the Barracks, I am honored to serve by your side, and couldn't ask for a better crew. *SALUTES*

Milestones::
Asandir - 46K total B/P
Big-Boss - 38K total B/P
byteslinger - 16K blams, 130K saves, 146K total B/P

Because kids don't know how to read simple rules I guess. I took that one down, but in future audio should be posted in the Audio Portal Cleanup thread rather than the EGB, which is focused on the Game/Movie portal.
