Question about Newgrounds profiles

[The_Coolest_Water_Bottle]

Well, just ten minutes ago on a thread Sera Ex said that Newgrounds profiles shouldn't be allowed on this wiki.

Are they allowed or not?

If not, why they aren't?

 

[GojiBoyForever]

They probably aren't for the reasons provided in this thread.

[The_Coolest_Water_Bottle]

Thanks. I'll wait for more staff input though.

 

[Sera_EX]

I made a thread for the staff to discuss redefining our standards for profile creation: https://vsbattles.com/vsbattles/3463394.

 

[GojiBoyForever]

Also this likely will be more relevant as this issue needs to be solved immediately for all profiles.

I mean

Is it original fiction or is it just like, Super MARIO 63?

 

[Sera_EX]

I just posted that lol.

 

[Agnaa]

I have no idea why they shouldn't be allowed, they don't seem to have the same issues other controversial profiles of recent have had. If they're not allowed I might need to look into removing some pages I've made, and some pages I know of.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Doesnt that include stuff like henry stickman and madness combat? I don't see why they wouldn't be allowed

 

[Sera_EX]

Because they're no different than an OC verse from FC/OC. Anyway this should be continued elsewhere.

It tends to vary. Newgrounds is fan-created, so you can find practically anything there, from parodies and games to music and animations. Heck, even hentai has it's spot in Newgrounds.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

By that logic any fictional character can be considered an OC...

 

[Agnaa]

No unpublished verse is different than an OC verse from FC/OC, if you want to go that far. But deleting all unpublished internet-based works seems like a bad way to go.

 

[Wokistan]

We actually have a few already.

Henry Stickmi

Madness Combat

Xionic Madness

 

[Sera_EX]

Guys we have a thread to address all this at once

https://vsbattles.com/vsbattles/3463394

I even moved it for everyone's convenience

 

[Agnaa]

On top of those 3, I'm not sure if Versus Umbra was published on Newgrounds (I found it on Kongregate), but it's heavily Newgrounds-inspired, featuring Hank as a secret costume.

Delet SCP

 

[BigSmoke4269]

I originally asked this question on a report thread because I wanted to make a profile for Beebo, since he has multiple feats such as digging his way out of Hell with his bare paws for a month, falling out of a window and being completely unfazed, bursting out of a human chest, and decapitating, ripping apart, and tearing in half multiple humans. He even pounced on a man's head and completely obliterated it in an explosion of blood.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

SCP and RHP would fall under that as well

 

[Sera_EX]

Check again, I just moved it

Since Agnaa was one of the main participants in the discussion it feels wrong to single him out to just staff

 

[BigSmoke4269]

Imma just make the ******* profile and see if someone deletes it.

 

[GojiBoyForever]

Not a good idea.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

How come? If it gets deleted I'll defend it, if it doesn't, ok, if I defend it and it still stays deleted, then it's exactly the same as if I never made the profile in the first place.

 

[Sera_EX]

N o

 

[BigSmoke4269]

Me: How come?

Sera: no

 

[Agnaa]

Me: How come?

Sera: no

Because there's ongoing discussion about it and making a profile amidst that is in bad taste, adds to workload, and generally makes people more annoyed having to deal with it. You could think of it as adding fuel to the fire.

 

[GojiBoyForever]

Also you were kinda told not to post it so it would be disobedience.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

Ok.

I disagree with the "in bad taste" argument, though. Why? Peter Griffin.

 

[Agnaa]

Ok.

I disagree with the "in bad taste" argument, though. Why? Peter Griffin.

I disagree with the idea that we don't care about bad taste. Why? We don't have profiles for figures from active religions.

 

[ZacharyGrossman273]

That's more because of controversy than taste.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

I'm not saying we don't care at all, but there are plenty of people a show like Family Guy would disgust and offend.

And I'm, like eight billion percent sure Family Guy's made jokes about modern religions.

 

[ZacharyGrossman273]

I mean comedies on religions are allowed. We have South Park profiles, The Good Place, Hell, we have ******* YHVH

The issue is actual profiles based on religious interpretations

 

[BigSmoke4269]

Ah, yes. Our lord and saviour, Beebo the cat from ******* NEWGROUNDS.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

Beebo isn't a religious figure. The series may have made some religious jokes, but we sure as hell don't worship him as an almighty god.

 

[Agnaa]

Can you two please stop ranting about religious profiles? The point is that people think it's a dick move to make a controversial profile while revisions are ongoing.

 

[GojiBoyForever]

Yeah chill out.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

I'll just make a userblog and copy/paste it if Newgrounds characters turn out to be allowed.

 

[Agnaa]

Great idea.

 

[BigSmoke4269]

So...how do you make one?
