I assume it's Tom that responds to the support emails (it does say Tom...).

I've reported a fangame that has subscriptions twice, and it still has a hub. The previous times I've done this, the fangames were removed pretty fast.

Does the fangame have to be up (aka, hosted) to be removed for it, or something?

It's any site admin, of which I ballpark there being 4/5, probably a few more though. If they sign it, then obviously you know who dealt with the last requests though.

BYOND got popular only because of Fan Games. !?

Thats my view anyway. According to my study Fangames are more populated than non-Fangames.

What study?
Could you cite this study?
Does it properly use statistical methods so that the data is an accurate representation of what it was studying?
Was it done by an accredited individual or group of individuals?
Was this individual/were these individuals unbiased observers?
Did they conduct the study in a way that was unbiased? I.e., they did not use loaded questions or cherry pick data?
Are you just using words you don't know exactly how to use to appear like you might possibly be smart?
Can I has round number?

Ohhh no! Not you again


I mean like I did not even talk a bit about you, you came biting by back, your Avatar really explains you.

Really from the Heart

And what the Hell does that Topic has to do with this?

To your Answer tell me any successful non-fan game?
By the word 'successful' I mean there is a population of more than 100-Infinity Players at anytime.

Examples - Naruto Goa(approx) and the Best DBZ Heroes United by Falacy. etc..

I need your examples to state that non-fan games are more successful than fan-games.




I do NOT want to Argue with this Guy

I pray that some god closes this thread cause I feel he is gonna churn me with his teeth like a dawg.

The amount of players doesn't matter if:
1) You can't make money off subscriptions.
2) Players are too young to send you money.

There are BYOND games that are not fan games that have grossed over hundreds of dollars. For instance Proelium, and Teridal. Compare that to your fan games and I think success has a very different meaning.

Why do you Capatalize Random starting Letters of Words?
Player-base does not equal a good game, Naruto GOA and any game by Falacy are quite terrible.

Btw, you can't deny that Fan-Games are more attractive than Non-Fan Games......

I came to BYOND through Falacy's DBZ HU, and a lot of people came to BYOND only because of Fan-Games...

+ I don't think BYOND advertises itself, the one major gateway of more people coming to BYOND is fan games.

For instance - Some Bored guy would google 'Online DBZ multiplayer Games' and whoa BYOND pops up.

On the contrary - Some Bored guy would google 'Online multiplayer Games' they would be lead to other sites.

Doubt it?! Try Googling yourself. That is why I said Fan-Games are more successful than Non-Fan-Games.

Player-base does not equal a good game, Naruto GOA and any game by Falacy are quite terrible.
And saying that DBZ HU and Naruto Goa such suck would be really non-logical .

Teridial and Proleim whatever
their population > is less than 10(both combined)(now)
on the contrary other population >150 (now)

Why do you Capatalize Random starting Letters of Words?
I call that emphasizing

You may say that non-fan games may be better than fan-games, but =P. BYOND players subscribe to BYOND when they find games they like, the games talked about everywhere, the games liked by everyone, the games related to popular stories or magazines or movies or TV serials blhaaa...

On the other hand I don't think Falacy is that poor enough, He's got loads of Subscribers which makes me conclude

Fan-Games More Successful, Fan-Games BYOND's backbone, Fan-Games BYOND's advertiser, Fan-Games BYOND's financer!

The Whole Post is the study I made (to Dawg) .

You have no idea who my avatar is a picture of, do you? It's a minor character from Futurama named Seymour Asses, who is a focal point of one of the best episodes of the series, and is the cause of one of the saddest episodes of a comedic cartoon in TV history. He is not an evil dog, he does not bite, and you're an idiot for making assumptions like that when it doesn't at all look vicious.
