Do not upload music you did not make because you want to use it in Geometry Dash.

Do not upload audio that you did not create and have full rights to.

I was banned for uploading a remix of Blocked. This remix got banned because I sampled the main melody of the original song, the rest was entirely original and made by me. I only sampled the og song for the instrumental.

I even sent a dm to moldy himself on NG, but he still hasn’t responded cause I’m sure he doesn’t use Newgrounds a lot

I was banned for a song I made minutes beforehand and looked up the song it said I stole from and neither it not the maker exist anywhere online. Maybe mine is similar but I can't even find who they are

I don't want to appeal anything. I just want to remove a song.

Because apparently, we are unable to remove our own audio anymore...



Edit: Found the un-publish button, nevermind

Hello! Please unban me, I got blocked by releasing MY song "The WishHouse - Syeet Endy" on Newgrounds and I don't understand, how to post my songs, that also exist on other platforms??

hello! i accidentally canceled my appeal but i've been falsely flagged. my track was fully original and i can prove it by providing recordings of my project's file.

Appeal


Have another track being hit by the bot copyright infringement program. Still just as funny a song published in 2021 is trying to pin it on one published in 2013.

At 8/23/22 12:05 PM, LAsthmatique wrote: Hi ! I recently tried to upload a song that I made on Newgrounds, but a copyright infringement was detected. Twice.

So, 10 days ago I uploaded a song on this website, which was the first song I made and therefore my first submission, but a copyright infringement for these songs was detected :
"嵐の中の航海" by Ryo Matsushima Music
"Ebenezer Ó Ceallaigh Suite - Voyage" by Bdrg
Since I didn't use these songs in any way, I filed an appeal, which was closed 4 days later, without changing anything. I'm pretty sure I didn't close it myself.
I then tried to reupload the same song 5 days ago (I didn't know that it was a bad idea), but again, a copyright infringement was detected, but this time with only the second song. I filed another appeal, and once again it got closed without changing anything (and I didn't close it myself either), except that now I can't even upload any audio file anymore.

Since then, I read the rules related to the submissions (I know that I should have done it earlier, but again I'm pretty new and I didn't think this kind of situation would happen), where I learned that if a third copyright infringement was detected, I'd be banned. And I don't want that to happen, obviously, so I'm trying to get some help here.

Here's a link to the song I wanted to upload (I believe it's not advertisement in this situation. And I know it's not great, I'm just a beginner), in order to prove that it has nothing to do with the other two songs, except of course the genre. I'd be happy if anyone could help me.

Also, another thing. Even if my song is very different from the original song by Symphony of Specters, it's a remix of this song. So technically, I should have the author's consent. Therefore I sent a private message to them, but like, they don't exist anymore, it'll probably take a lot of time until someone answers me, if it ever happens. Could I just upload it nonetheless, knowing that both their song and mine (if I somehow manage to upload it) are Royalty-free, that I'll send the authors a message telling them to just contact me if they want me to delete it, and that my music is really different than the original ? If it's not the case, well, I won't do it, it's not a big deal.

That's it, thank you if you can help me. I hope it's understandable, too.


Well, it's been nearly 4 months and nothing has changed. The incorrect copyright infringement is still here, and I can't submit my song again or else I'll be banned. And no one ever replied to my message here, so this might be useless.


So I don't know if it'll change anything, and I'm sorry if I'm disturbing you, but I'll try mentionning @Pingu. Can someone please make it so somehow I can upload my song on Newgrounds ? I mean, it's not even that great of a song but still, I'd like to put it here and there's no reason I can't, since I didn't do anything wrong. That's it, I hope that this time someone will be able to help me.

Not sure where you found that interpretation, the automatic checker levies a ban automatically.


Anyways, I've reviewed and sorted it. This appeal came up while I was away over the summer and must have been missed in the pile of appealed appeals. A mod had closed the appeal but I think there was a misunderstanding on the source material.

Do not upload audio that you did not create and have full rights to. Do not upload music you did not make because you want to use it in Geometry Dash.


The two first rules you agreed to when attempting to upload the media

Hi :)


Thanks for approving my audio!


I had a look through the rules and googled around a bit, but couldn't really find an answer to my question. Figured this would be the best place to ask


If I upload other songs from my EP, will they also need to go through the appeals process? I'd like to put them on here but I'd feel bad spamming you guys with appeals

The auto-checker applies to unscouted users. Tom scouted you, so you shouldn't get any grief from the machine.


Rules still apply :)

Check the comment on it.


Reminder for random lookers on that closing the appeal means it is no longer disputed and accessible. Like closing a case, or closing a door behind you.

Hi, recently I post two songs (one of them) which were banned because of "Uploading copyright audio in a mashup". I guess, the copyrigth audio I used is this track. But, this track is NOT copyrighted: it is not available on digital stores (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) and was distributed freely to all comers. I want the moderators to talk to me about this topic

The only mashups allowed are your own music. Using other peoples works is against the guidelines and the spirit of Newgrounds

I don't have an appeal because I was scouted. I posted remixes for the track COSMOS but I got banned until 2028. I would like to ask, that is not under copyright if I have permission.

The fact is that one of the members of one group that broke up wrote on his page on the social network VK that everyone can make their own remix of the track COSMOS from Sleeping Hummingbird?

I just noticed that almost everyone had these remixes removed, but there were others. Among them there are non-original works, that is, re-uploaded from another account.

Examples:

This is a reupload - https://w ww.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1167488

Hahaha, this is a re-uploaded of MY remix from g2961 account, which also deleted, but re-uploaded remained- https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1182552

This is a low quliaty version of KOCMOC - https://w ww.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1183672

This is remix with a AXUIS LINK original remix - https://w ww.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1186243

How could it not be blocked? - https://w ww.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1185663
