RMN4 INCOMING

Media weirds me out, is that for public use or for game specific?

EDIT:
A new media tab for gameprofiles to allow users to submit music, trailers, Lets Plays series, etc. to gameprofiles. Note: any user can submit media to a game.

Hmmmmmmm now that I read about this, isn't this why we have blogs? I would understand let's plays but musics and trailers seems weird?

It is so that people who have no actual connection to the game can submit Let's Plays and stuff like that and connect it to a gamepage.

I don't know how this works yet (not enough media), but I hope there's some distinction between media created by the developer of the game (or submitted by him, making it "official") and media created (and submitted) by people not on the dev team.

So for example a non-dev shouldn't be able to post original soundtracks and concept art for a game he/she has no connection to.

What's wrong with you? There is no true reason you wouldn't want a script section. You're game designers. A script section only HELPS make games. Unless you're the type to want people to make their own scripts. "Welcome to the Internet". Nothing is private.

Well one thing is kinda weird with it though. There's a script section but no graphics or music section (unless that's what media is supposed to be, but it doesn't seem like that's the point of that). I really can't see any reason why it is like that except possibly the fact that scripts don't really take up a whole lot of space while images and music might.

With plug'n'play scripts it seems the site is saying "It's okay not to know how to script but god forbid should you be unable to make your own graphics or music."

I had some rudimentary plans for resources on RMN4, but they didn't make the cut.

As for media, I didn't make it so that Media submitted by the game's developer was auto-accepted. (but, as I see media in the queue by a game's developer, I accept it right away).

While there is nothing built-in to prevent someone from submitting a media marked as Trailer for a game they didn't make, it still has to go through the submissions queue. If I saw anything like that, I would be immediately suspicious, and probably PM the game's developer and ask "did Darken really make a trailer for Blue?" (if I didn't deny it outright)

A developer has no power of media directly, just like Reviews. However, if someone PM'd me about a media they didn't want on their profile, I'd deal with it.
