New rules discussion thread

[moonflow43]

hopefully as you already saw, sensay recently posted some forum rules: www.guitarzero2.proboards78.com/index.cgi?board=news&action=display&thread=3345

the new rules thread is just so we have some guidelines. we don't really have a problem here with people not following the above rules even when they weren't posted and we're not trying to scare off anyone. most of the stuff is common sense anyways, haha

so.... what do you guys think of it? just curious if people think it's too strict/kind. if anything should be added/removed. give us your feedback on it as it's not really 100% final yet and may be changed accordingly.

thanks

to add to what moonflow has already said..

The rules really shouldnt need to be enforced here with anyone, there main purpose is that on the occasions when we might have to do some rule enforcing, there are clear guidelines in place. To make the whole process nice and simple, and cut down on confusion at both ends. In an ideal world, we will never have to use it though!

I just have one question about the 2nd rule. Does this apply to just the official chart & audio tracks? What if someone wants to chart "Bark at the Moon" using a random mp3? I say this mainly because with the large amounts of RB/GH DLC that comes out each week, eventually some songs are bound to overlap (whether we do it first or they do).

One could argue that the charts are different, but you never know what Activision might think.

no, we won't be doing the scorehero thing, they go to extreme precautions to make sure they are great friends with activision. we just don't want any official rips here.

makes me question my god of war chart though, haha. i guess it's not REALLY a rip but plays just like one... hmmmm....

Yea, if two charters do the same song AND actually know what they're doing, the result is gonna be pretty similar. Though, if one of the big heads do have a beef with certian songs, it'll be a bit easier to fix that than what you guys are doing right now.
