This hardly seems tocorrespond with the reality of things.
Posted by ElDavid Jul. 17, 2008 @ 11:09 AM EDTBoth blam buttons used in Newgrounds (for flash submissions and for audio submissions) are pretty harsh. I quote: 'BLAM THIS PIECE OF CRAP' and 'I HOPE YOU DIE IN A FIRE'.
But, oh! Try saying something remotely close to that on a review and you'll very likely get called on it. But I'm not gonna talk about that now. I wanna talk about the messege displayed when your blam vote is the decisive one for a new flash submission. That messege reads:
'CONGRATULATIONS! YOU JUST DESTROYED SOMEONE ELSE'S HARD WORK! THIS FLASH HAS BEEN BLAMMED'.
Now, let's get real. A good portion of the flashes submitted to this portal daily are indeed carp, as described by the blam button, and could not be honestly depicted as 'hard work'. There seems to be a love/hate opinion towards crappy flashes here.
I certainly do not appreciate it when this messege is displayed, as if I were to feel bad for blamming crap.
