Hey everyone, recently due to the new site update, i have been manually going threw as many games as i can.
I am deciding on what is a rip and what is original, i am also setting tags for games such as rpg,fantasy,anime,fangames,arcade etc,
There are many games to test and a lot of games to download and even more games which are not recently hosted for me to make a decision on.

My Process Mostly consists of:

I will look at the games hub, the games screenshots and comments.

I will then log into the game where possible and test the game and see how unique it is and if i feel unsure i will do my best to question the community on it's originality, and try to contact the owner of that game via the pager.

I can fairly easily spot certain rips from games such as Bleach souls of chaos, Db Zeta, Naruto Next Gen, GOA and others.

If i feel i have no clue about an inactive game i will have to either leave the game as Pending or move it to incomplete and wait for the game to gain progress before re assessing it.


I really would just like to say
I am sorry to everyone who feels i have done them wrong, I will likely make mistakes, and i will likely become hated, but none the less i'm doing this for byond and all of the community as well, So i guess i'll have to take on any burden and anger from my mistakes and even bitter responses due to maybe making a correct decision.

Also
If you do feel i made a mistake, could you somehow contact me with some full evidence to prove your statements please, Also if your game is still in purgatory and it's status and tags has not been set, then you may contact me with details about it, if you can and i will try to judge it the best i can.
Very appreciative to this Teka :] I'll try my best to help you out!
Well for the BYOND community I say, Thank You.
Keep up the great work, man!
You're holding in strong so far! [:
Agreed
You're doing a lot better than I am. When the system first came out and nothing was tagged, I strutted all through there tagging everything, since it was easy.
NEStalgia = rpg
Decadence = action
etc.

But now there's just the slush pile left, and I can't tell one anime game from another since I've never played any of them, or watched any anime at all. They all look the same to me.

Best leave that to you for now and just wait until Tom has something else for me to do, like the bug tracker.
You've got your hands full. Thanks for all the work!
I love that the good games are finally climbing to the front of byond and the popular re-nammed rips are being shoved to the back.

Brilliant job Teka, keep it up :D
i really like how your helping get rid of the rips on byond awsome job :D. but u did get one game mixed up with what was ripped and what wasn't. Naruto Final Battle is a ripped game. The orginal verison of it is Naruto Blind Spots of the Soul. please help me talk with byond administratives to get things settled

No it isn't getting ruined it's being fixed leave if you don't like it I'm sure no one will care.
Okay I have one question now. If any game is rip but the coders of that game added lots of unique features in game to make it interesting and look somewhat like original game , will it still be considered as rip game? I don't have any idea why Rebirth Unleashed is in list of non ripped games.


It would be kind of you to help me out solving the confusions.
I think this is one of those iffys that the mods are having complaints about. Thing is, even if a lot of new features are included, the basic game play is still the same.

In my opinion, a rip is a rip. Period.
Most the games which are still in non ripped game list , use the same idea of game play that rips used so in my opinion removing even rips doesn't matter.
Well your opinion is void of meaning to us.
Teka, you're the man! Awesome job. I hope you know how much we appreciate your hard work and dedication to byond and its community.
