CliveBarker Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Maybe we should retake the discussion about making public who changes what and who adds what and so on. Pros: It provides a sense of responsibility because by seeing your name displayed on a change, it is more likely for said person to be more careful and dedicated. Cons: This puts some pressure on people and in some cases this could lead to drama and verbal violence due to know who rejects what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestate Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 @Jason Carr Yeah Jason, because these new superfamicom issue, i've seen adding duplicates on superfamicom entry like the rushing beat saga, i've been deleted time ago and now the 3 games are now again in their japanese titles despite i've adding the asian cover info on their super nintendo entries.

Stop doing this. If you persist, we'll need to take action. They're being rejected, repeatedly, for reasons that have already been explained. It's going to happen, just chill. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestate Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 The noise is on, and the debate. We wait for oficial response. Apologies for the inconvenience. I've feel the same when i see dragon ball z games (released on europe) moving to super famicom tag and reemerging duplicates that i've erased long ago.

Zombeaver Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 You're not a crusader for organizational justice @Freestate. These things absolutely should be discussed... in these forums. Tying up valuable moderator time to send some "message", knowing full well that it's going to be rejected, isn't the way to do that, and it isn't going to continue. Trust me, discussions like this do not go unheard. Jason is probably one of the most receptive devs that I've ever dealt with when it comes to listening to and actually implementing changes based on the needs of the community. It will happen. You don't need to bludgeon people over the head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestate Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I say, that i'm the responsible. You don't need to seek internal info. If in the guidelines say platforms are merged and the asignation are, as i say, plenty of errors, no documented in guidelines. i've think that the correct option is going back to snes tag. If you see a mistake over and over, you don't correct it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. you're right, i've overeact because in the last months i'm contributing with lot of work on the snes database and i've saw that still remains more than 500 games to add, i've feel a little alone in this task and i've feel a little angry for this issue, because i'm really concerned to complete and really impatient waiting for alternate names and regioal info. As i say, apologies for the shitstorm. I wait for oficial response. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GamingOldGuy Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 what constitutes re-constructed art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Artwork which looks like the original art but was completely redrawn from scratch. In other words: If it looks similiar like the original but not exactly the same it goes into reconstructed. If it's completely custom it goes in to fanart.
