I was unable to follow through on that situation because the forum's administrators did not support me and instead blamed the situation on me. Forum admins have to support their moderators instead of blaming the mod who gets threatened with violence and supporting the perpetrator.
None of what you said excuses threats of violence, sexual harassment and smurf-trolling. None of those transgressions require the moderator to be overly polite to the transgressor. They just require a swift ban, which I helped deliver (Solecord was the one who actually did the banning). You have some strange ideas, and again, you are inherently blaming the victim. I was on the receiving end of graphic threats of violence, which I proved to the admins, and the admins decided to not support me. In short, you guys caved in and threw me under the bus, then unbanned the perpetrator. That's crazy behaviour for an internet forum. Hence why I gave up the moderator and news editor post. I tried to deliver content for your site, I stood in the line of fire trying to make it a friendlier place. You don't have the balls to ban toxic people from your forum, and you don't have the balls to back up those who do your dirty work. That is why you earned the excellent reputation you have. You can lecture us about alpha males and freedom of speech and politeness and kitchen psychology all day long. Doesn't change a thing. Sincerely. I think this is what happened.
Graphic threats of violence? I told you to stop fucking with me or I would make you regret it. This was AFTER you chased me around locking my posts and publicly chastising me.
You a turd, GB. I stayed true to my word (making you regret it). Who really lost all of their efforts in the long run? That would be you. I made it really fucking clear I would remain standing regardless of the advantage you took of your privileges and position and I did just that. You're just Butt-Hurt that your Nazi moderation techniques have no shelf life. You are also a total pussy. You let your "friends" determine who your friends should be and fell off the map when you realized I WILL fight for my opportunities. Your methods and ideals were/are garbage. They fell apart at the first sign of resistance.
The next post on that matter goes in here: http://celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=16069&start=252

Their quake recorder is FTE, so it'll capture vanilla+fitz+dpp7+qw etc demos. Getting the maps onto the server is more of an issue. FTE (and I assume DP but I don't know the details for that) has a fun trick that allows it to play back demos at a variable framerate, such that you get one frame exactly every 1/60th or whatever a second regardless of resolution or performance sapping rendering effects etc - it just takes a bit longer to capture every frame (or possibly less, capturing faster than realtime), otherwise known as offline rendering. FTE also has an ffmpeg plugin that can be used to directly capture the video to pretty much any format you want, in theory. It doesn't really allow for commentary though (unless its pre-embedded into the demo with voip). Not sure about that. It sounded like it was an old map fragment they found... may just have used TB1 to look at it and take the twitter pic.
Can music made using a GPL sample be released under CC? I also used several CC samples in this track and they require that I use the same license, so I was wondering about possible licensing conflicts.
Creative Commons is not one license; it's a set of several licenses with significantly different restrictions and liberties between them.
I tend to avoid CC-licensed content like the plague because of this; it's not rare for authors to not understand the differences between CC0, CC1, CC2, etc, before licensing their work under one of them. It may be possible that they think it's like GPL v2, v3, etc, where the number simply denotes an update. Some CC licenses are compatible with the GPL, some are not. IMO, it's not worth the trouble, but you can analyze each license of each sample to see if any of them uses a GPL-conflicting CC license. Well, the CC-licensed samples are CC0 (I misspoke when I said they required that my work used the same license, it's another track of mine which does). The GPL sample is from Tenshihan's GPL Soundbank, which I think was released in 2003, so it's likely to be GPLv1 but I'm not sure. My work is intended to be released under CC-BY-SA 4.0.
I've read on the CC wiki that this CC license has a one-way compat with GPLv3, meaning that a work released under GPLv3 can include CC-BY-SA 4.0 material but not the other way around. However, it doesn’t say anything about previous GPLs. No one reads license agreements.
Pick one that works with your situation. Then find something productive to do. Quoth has hipnotic scorpions, many popular Quake maps have textures from non-Quake games, Arcane Dimensions got booted from Moddb for having monsters from a different game. Possibly the best secret map ever in a single player releaes has Legend of Zelda music in it. License agreements are paperwork issues; something for a readme. No one reads them. I guess you're right about no-one reading license agreements. The thing is, in due time I intend to release this work commercially on my Bandcamp, at least on a pay-what-you-want basis. I just don't want to be cornered into a legal feud.
I suppose I could keep mum about the source of this GPL sample, I doubt anyone would recognize it anyway, considering how I modified it... the best secret map ever in a single player releaes has Legend of Zelda music in it. Really? What release? |
