What is being hidden: Rips. Yes, the rips, which is about 99% of the fan-games, suck it up. Your games suck anyway, there are no good rips. I do not care if that was my opinion or not, "you're fucking wrong" if you think there are good rips. So no one gives a shit if your game that scores a whopping 10-20 -fucking- players even exists except for your special ed down syndrome rejects that are being led to your game for the pretty fucking colors of the HTML encoded names for your admins (which is about 50% of the player base).

Fan Game Listings: Alright fucktards, the fan games aren't being hidden...

"Good original games are bumped in the listings through a special "featured" designation. To promote originality, fan-based games cannot be featured, but they can be listed."

Woah, hold the fucking phone, did you read that shit? Hell yeah you better have, THEY AREN'T BEING HIDDEN, they won't be featured, now for your dumbfucks that don't understand that shit because you didn't pay attention in you special ed classes better listen up, because your down syndrome excuse isn't going to help you here. Featured means that it will be in the first some numbers of the listings, which means you'll have to put that extra effort, that so little of you can, into going back further into the listings to find your fan games (that aren't rips).

Hubs: You don't need to be a member, to make hubs.

"only Members are allowed to submit their hub entries for search & listing, and those in turn must be approved."

Oh my, isn't reading fun!? No? Well fuck you, read it. You can make hubs until you die, but you have to be a member to SUBMIT FOR LISTING, well, not even you. Maybe a friend, you know those things you probably made by giving people free GM- oh wait Rips can't even be submitted for approval, so hey fan-games that aren't rips, I'm sure you guys have actual friends and fans, get them to submit if you are not a member. Cool stuff.

Them final words dawg: Chill the fuck out, this isn't the mother fucking Holocaust (proper nouns daaawg). This is just a new organizational method. If you're going to be the #1 member with down syndrome, fine, but shut up and go back to being a wal-mart greeter or some such shit- wait, no, because they have a bit more sense than most of the people complaining all over the forums that get their topics deleted.

Main Points:

Advertise: If you're hung up that your rips won't show up on the listings, learn to fucking advertise. You're lucky BYOND gives you hubs in the first place. Network that shit.

Hub Submission: $18 isn't hard to make, get a membership if you want to be supportive and be able to submit your games yourself. You're paying for better advertisement so you can be lazy and not do some big promotional stuff (if you don't want to).

Fuck you: See: Fuck you
