It's reasons like this why I have a hatred towards humanity in general.
Hi there! In case you didn't know, I created newgrounds. No, it wasn't made by some giant company - just some dumb kid who now has help. I also co-founded the Behemoth; we made Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Icon by Pegosho, banner by OmenaKettu.

I can understand why you hate Digg now, lol.
Yeah I saw that yesterday in downtown, some guy was watching it and I noticed there wasn't any credits at the end.
You should send a polite "FUCK YOU" e-mail and get it down.
Man, I hate jackoff's like that.
But, I'm calling this one a conspiracy.
WHAT THE HELL!?
Tom what happens if i export 3D on flash and it gets ripped?
( i mean...not like ill become famous or anything >_>)
you cant use watermakrs for that can you?
l8s
Damn that is gay.
It's not even like a 13 year old using a webcam than putting it on youtube, it is a grown man, I assume.
I think in the wiki section you should talk about digg and how they steal from NG.
Hope you had a good saint patty's day tom!
You should boycott them.
Bunch of hacks that can't create their own shit! Fuck 'em!
Hey tom.

Should totally get front page, I literally orgasmed and broke my computer when I played it.
Another thief on the Internet
man, that is so wrong..>:(
can't utah claim it or something?
Why not just add a big newgrounds tank or something in the background of the flash?
The best solution really would be to get more proactive on other sites. I don't see us really posting a lot of YouTube vids linking back to NG, but I do see almost every NG flash I watch on YouTube. Watermarks would also be good.
Also, I don't see NG people protesting a lot when stuff does get stolen. We should organize ourselves and actually work to point out that flash X is being ripped from an author from NG.
Just for that, I will never visit Digg nor Break. I hate when artists get ripped. We work hard for just a little bit of recognition, if not just the plain satisfaction that comes from releasing something we're proud of. It really makes me miserable that people will steal a damn video just so that they can be the jerk-off that posted the link that made front page. Whoopty goddamned doo; learn Flash.
Do you think that artists releasing their own stuff on other sites will affect the amount of stolen content? I mean, people will always mirror stuff; look at how many videos of the Dramatic Chipmunk exist. What would the best deterrent, if any, be?
Releasing stuff on other sites kind of takes away from the exclusivity of the Newgrounds creative community, which is a little bit of a minus.
thats fuckin' bullshit
Oh and Tom, I don't think using code will stop them, because they still got hypercam or all those other programs, just put like the Newgrounds Logo at the bottom left or right, so they know its from Newgrounds. A crap load of sites do it, so you should. But I hope you can resolve this.
Damn. Stupid stupid people.
Tystarr
wasn't there a Newgrounds watermark once upon a time?
