What in the world is SRB2 Workshop?

Fuck you.

Completely wrong but suuuuure. whatever makes your heart flutter. Meanwhile Portlegs are a thing because 2.0 and 2.1 content doesn't play nice with 2.2's Engine (meaning it's like playing jenga in a earthquake) if it hasn't gotten some kind of offical 2.2 port (seriously when the fuck are we gonna see the sugoi trilogy properly make the jump to 2.2 or is it just "Fuck off. We aren't porting it. Get bent."). Plus Gamebanana has some REALLY low effort mods here and there.

I know.

I want to slap you upside the head from my screen SO GODDAMN BAD because you're being a complete moron.

I mean it was also kind of founded because you guys kicked a russian out of here. But that's my understanding and I'm not exactly one to comprehend full situations before jumping in head first. yer a bunch of racists for doing that shit though.
What even... why would you say that?

I agree with this, portlegs are just low effort in general, but wait! why not remake the entire mod to support the OG creator!

Maybe asking for permission would be nice... heh...

why am i acting like a dumb piece of crap on the message boards :sad:
Remaking a entire mod with your own assets shows that you care about the original way more then just porting over someone else work without even asking first.
 
SRB2 Workshop is a (NOT) supposed to be russian community at all, but They decide that this site is bad for them to stay. Which is why the are doing it againist us by not being nice to them, it also means that we might have to find a way to shut it down. Otherwise, we might just be dommed. The only thing is to stay in the message board community. And also do not be with the russian community since they make portlegs that are just off step in the rules, and there also might be a vs to mb or workshop. If it ever happens... Who knows, we might not know until the future comes by. Then we will know what happend to this, or if not. Still until the future comes (again).

Ignore them and move on. They'll have their 5 minutes of fame. There have been much more pressing things that could've ended the community eons ago, but for now, it's not worth treating like it's the end of the world.
 
I don't think an elitist us vs them mentality is something we should be striving for.
Game Banana's SRB2 community want's to work with us. The Work shop community want's to work against us.
I don't think an elitist us vs them mentality is something we should be striving for.

Agreed. I believe they want this aggression toward them so they can find a reason to not like us. Also, I'm pretty sure some of the people on there genuinely believe for what they stand for. They don't understand respect, sure, but they have good intentions, and they'll probably never understand WHY we don't like portlegs. They think that we're trying to shut them out for petty reasons, (partly true for SOME people here, if yk yk) and trying to take their freedom away.
We should probably just leave them alone for a bit instead of being petty. (if yk yk)

Ok, Imma head into this discussion. Ok, so we dont do portlegs (allegedly) right? But what about a mod someone made, say in the 2.0 or 2.1 era, and the guy or team who worked on the mod arent around anymore (i.e. creator moved on from srb2, team disbanded, etc.) What are we gonna do about that. We cant recreate anything without permission, but we cant ASK them bc theyre gone. So, that mod is lost to time. And, before I get a potential ban for this, I've seen both sides to this situation, and one of the reasons for the banned work is that they claim you shouldnt delete a banned person's addons just because theyre banned. And they have a somewhat smart point. Ok, so I do something racist and I get a ban, and lets say, my addon, the best addon of all time, has been deleted. Well, some people enjoyed that addon and now its gone forever. So someone explain that. I genuinely wanna see what the MB has to say about this situation.

Another thing, on Sonic 1983's YT channel, he ported Inazuma to 2.2. But the major thing to me is Frostiikin, one of the staff here, said this,

So do with this information as you please.

I searched up sonic 1983 on YouTube, turns out he was banned for porting srb2 top down, the addon page never had the portleg thing mentioned,
and the chance of an "official" port is never, sometimes I wonder with this site.

making an outdated Mod that people find nostalgic work properly on a newer release regardless of source is still quality work, unlike creating a forum so that you can cry about something not being how YOU wanted it to be.

yeah, there is no way around it, the original stuff isn't really that good, there is a mod that stops time but other than that it's just eh, like a horrific love child of mb and gb, and we are the abusive parent. :)
We ban people from all around the world all the time. We didn't ban anyone for being from Russia. That would be stupid. To quote Tatsuru:

[yer a bunch of racists for doing that shit though.]

[I want to slap you upside the head from my screen SO GODDAMN BAD because you're being a complete moron] Just want to take a moment to clarify for anyone reading that this user's ban was due to their aggressive and threatening recent posts (one of which I removed), not due to defending the alternative community in question.
once again, I can't help but agree, maybe it's just how it comes off as someone to trust, a team leader if you will.
unlike the person who made an entire forum because of a Kirby srb2 level.
The SRB2 Workshop should be avoided at all cost, talking about them in general is just giving them what they want.
you made an entire forum to cry about a video game and are probably proud of it,
[insert quote]
I just wanted to point out that scarf the wolf is on the workshop, do with that what you will, unless it's bullying, banning, and or being a horrible person in general.
to end things on a better note, I think it's better to see effort and quality on the same level, someone's first project won't be as polished as their best, the better they get at their craft, the more they can do, if you want to take anything in this mess of text, let it be this part, together as a community, we can make a better tomorrow, but if we fight amongst ourselves, there might not be a tomorrow.
 
srb2 workshop is litrarly the unoffical garage of the srb2 mb
people take goated 2.0/2.1 mods and yoink them on 2.2 or even port 2.1 luas
this is litrarly what the guy needed dont over complecate it

Yeah, THANK YOU FOR THIS. Why do we have to look down on the Workshop? The only reason it exists is because they believe people work shouldnt be banned. Trust me, I've been following Domikoto, one of the founders of the Workshop, on YT, and thats the one of the main reasons why its up to begin with. Theres some other reasons, but Im not gonna go into them, at least not here. And its a fair point. Why should my work be gone when it didnt contribute to the ban? And I've seen new people enter the SRB2 community, videos on YT with low views, btu they use Workshop addons. They dont know any better on this situation, so should they ge banned if they ever decided to join the forums? I myself use some Workshop addons, and theyre great.

Just wanted you to hear my argument above. And before I get banned for using Workshop addons, why should that even be a problem? If I get a ban for simply using addons that arent from here, thats hwo I know the community is in trouble.

It shouldn't. We don't remove people's work from the Message Board just because they got banned. We have removed work that was found to contain code or assets reused without permission or broke forum rules after the author was banned, but removing people's work just because they're banned would be a waste of time. I don't know why this argument keeps coming up; it is simply not based on reality. If you want proof, here's a link to one banned member's addons, which remain publicly available to download.

And before I get banned for using Workshop addons, why should that even be a problem?
Assuming you are referring to using hosting games on the Master Server, it does not matter where a mod is from. If it is reported to contain assets or code reused without permission, your server can be delisted, since this is in violation of Master Server rule #6. As long as you use mods made with assets and code that are fully original or that are reused with permission, or you choose not to host your game on our Master Server, you have nothing to worry about. (You can still get people to join your game without advertising on the Master Server, by the way.) We will always recommend that people only host on the Master Server with mods found here, since we strive to ensure all files are safe and plagiarism-free, but we will never require it -- to make it crystal clear, there are no rules against hosting on the Master Server with files not found on SRB2MB. You can read the full MS rules here -- just click "Hosting? Read the rules."

Remember, we don't care what you do with mods in private. You can make and play all the unauthorized edits you want as long as they're kept off our Discord server and Master Server, and not otherwise publicly uploaded. We just want people to respect mod authors' wishes within public spaces. That's it.

Just ignore the workshop. The way it was made is to have this kind of discussion and you fell for it. Don't forget that all advertising is good to take even bad one.

I actually visited the Workshop and I disagree with some.

I understand the reasoning behind the workshop but it was poorly done as it's too similar to the official MB and bad moderation(some removal request are ignored and some edits slip into safe mods). Also they tend to promote a lot of the mods on the platform, including "portleg".

Not everything from the WS is to throw away. There isn't as much mods as you may think that are problematic. There even a "safe" section that try to get closer to rules from here(but some mods slip) and it's bigger than the unsafe section with mods that can't be put here. Problematic mods still exists however.
The official community is also to blame. People tend to react badly notably because of some moderators taking copyright too seriously and community passing the words without doing proper research. Not telling everyone is bad or anything, just some overreact and take it too personnally.

About "portleg", while I don't like the word(it was made to make fun of them), I understand both sides.
Some mods authors don't want their word to be shared without having control over what is shared, and they don't always want people to edit it.
On the other side the community may lose from that notably when it's simple ports. Some just want to play old mods but can't as they aren't officially ported.

Unofficial ports shouldn't be posted in a place where anyone can randomly stumble on like the official MB or the MS. However I am fine if people do simple port as long they say clearly that it isn't supported by the official author, that said author isn't against it and that people actually need to search for it to find it and are aware of what the mod is.
Also mods shouldn't be edited or reused in an unrelated work without the author consent.

That don't clean it but it shouldn't have as much backslash as it have. It to trigger the official community(it actually work considering the existence of this thread) and are a bit lack on their standard but it have a reason to exists.

Don't remember that SRB2 exists because Sega is fine with unauthorized use. Outside of that this game is illegal.
 
The blue sphere section is just the normal message board, and then its just like
"why not just use the message board?"
the srb2 workshop is only appealing to people that are ban, or people that make unofficial ports without permission.
 
You already mentioned this several times. You're just trolling this person now, knock it off!
