Now, again, I remember reading some rules about submitting content to FFR but unless this is dug up, the step artist is in their full right to remove any files at their wish regardless of any other opinions.

Re: Need some opinions
Except for the fact that we're talking about a completely un-monetary based system, built with no copyright in mind. By submitting the file, FFR was not being 'granted' permission to use it. More like FFR waits for file submissions so that files are more original, step artists want their files to be on FFR so they make them for FFR.
If FFR was making money off of files, this would be an entirely different story, but it's not. (Which is why the previous rule regarding forfeit of rites existed.) This isn't a 'breach of legal' situation. At all. There are no legal grounds here. |

Re: Need some opinions
iirc it actually used to be in the rules and i cant seem to find it but i know it was there and tass mentioned it on several occasions as well. this isnt like it would be hard to fix though. just add it to the rules in the queue batch discussion thread and there will no longer be any question.

But seriously, it's going to be hard to agree on this if we can't find proper info in our logs. If psychoangel is reading this, I'd like to know what's the update on the discussion, as he agreed to anything or is he maintaining his position? If his position still doesn't sway, I support removing the content he asked for, but not the entirety. I mean, he's basically asking for us to improve his files. |

One can consider FFR as more of a museum. It's a host for creative content, but does not necessarily create any on its own (aside from game engines and the site itself). If an artist no longer wants his work on display, then take it down and move on. Until there is something set in stone saying otherwise, that's what needs to be done. |

Re: Need some opinions
If a music artist gave us the right to use their music I'm fairly certain we can hold that right to keep it in (Unless we breach the agreement such as starting to make money on the site or allowing people to download). They may be able to revoke for newer stuff that comes out, but I think once the permission is granted and the content is in it's in. If there's something in game we don't have permission for that's a different story, which has happened.
@crazy I haven't talked to him since last night. |

Whatever is ultimately decided, the rules for adding and removing either stepfiles or music should be similar if not the same. |

Re: Need some opinions
I haven't seen you post in a while, is it bad that I thought maybe the person wanting them removed was you? Kinda realized it wasn't once I heard how many files and the timeframe they were released.

Re: Need some opinions
imho I say let them get ripped out, it's for quality over all. As long as one is asking for their older files to get taken out anyway. This goes for everyone.
We need to do an overhaul of all the old files anyway. *this is my opinion without reading the tl;dr 6 pages* sorry if it's been said before. |

A lot of people have been trying to make the argument of quality or liked/disliked files but that's really not what this is about. It's either yes any simfile author should be able to remove any or all of their files if they wish, or no they shouldn't be able to just take their files out. |

Re: Need some opinions
I think you misunderstand, I was saying only IF it's a Legacy file or similar. Maybe the simartist should have a panel vote?
edit Otherwise the artist shouldn't have any right to remove it imo |

+1. I agree that requesting mass removal is selfish, but retroactively applying a newly created rule would be wrong in my opinion. |

Most of the users that have been here a while are pretty sure that there was in fact a rule previously that may have been left out of the new thread. Once the site returned a lot of things were a bit screwy in a lot of ways. |
