Here, maybe this might change your opinions a bit (should've done this sooner--if only I'd know how to insert images):
Looks a tad cluttered due to the dates, so I'd modify or omit them if necessary. Otherwise I think this looks hardly any different than before--except now we know who made the game immediately beneath its title, and on ALL the game's pages, not just its main page. I also think there's enough room to list at least two developers with really long names up there.
Is this such a bad idea that we've spent four pages arguing against it? How can that be!

I already told you why I keep responding: I have to stand up for my idea whenever you guys miss the point. Otherwise, what's my guarantee that the suggestion came through clearly? One person thinks this, another thinks that... And few people hear what I'm actually saying.
Dude, that's fair. You like your gamepage, I hear you. But again... Ugh, AGAIN, you don't HAVE to bump the details section just to give me peace of mind. What I want is a link to the author somewhere near the name of the work so that it is accessible on the gamepage, blogs, and while viewing images. Does any one else think this may be useful? Just an aye or a nay, please.
What, you don't like that because the title may look crowded on a game with multiple developers? Well here's yet another idea for you to shoot down:
Game X
By various developers (AznChipmunk, tardis)
The two names can be chosen at random each time the page loads. You have an issue with this, just say so; I can come up with alternatives all day.
I won't address anything else in your post because they give me a headache and a euphoric sensation simultaneously. Although I will say you need reading glasses becausenowherenohowdidIsingleoUTDARKENFO--*transmission cutoff*.
...Or anyone else's posts for that matter. I just want my idea be clear to everyone at the table so that when it is denied it is denied in all its glory.
post=125886I wish you would stop making this sound complicated when it's not.
And once again, your analogy is a gross oversimplification of the argument. The backpack analogy addresses convenience, but it doesn't touch upon other issues I brought up, including page layout and practicality. Many people, including myself, want screenshots to be a big focus of the gamepage because that is always what people look at first and what makes people play a game. There is no convenient or practical way to move the details section higher up without bumping the screenshots preview section down, potentially out of view.

--TRIED TO SEVER TIES WITH THE LONDON SKIES / YOU GOT THE WHOLE THING WROOONG!!!
Edit: Alright, I tried. I just have to get this stuff off my chest. Seriously, you fellows are missing the point by far. Laziness and convenience are not the same thing.
When you put on a backpack to go to school, are you being lazy? No, the backpack is simply providing you with a way to carry your books. That's convenience. It would be lazy if you yourself got in a backpack and let someone else carry you.
You don't have to get rid of the details section. I don't have a PROBLEM with the details section. You also don't have to add the author's name anywhere else BESIDES the details section. It's all functioning perfectly well.
But you also don't have to put your books in a book bag. You can carry them by hand--and I'm sure some people are fine with that. I, however, in the interest of those who aren't fine with it (particularly, ahem, myself), would like a book bag. It would help me out in so many ways! You guys can still carry your stuff by hand; no one's stopping you. And my bag isn't going to jump out and attack you in the middle of the night. No one loses here!
Granted, not many people are siding with me on this, so this is all coming across as a self-centered suggestion--and as democracy goes, right? I agree that my idea is relatively insignificant and self-centered. I'm fine with being denied; not all suggestions get approved. I'm fine with going back to the main gamepage and scrolling down every single time just to find the name of a developer. (Don't try to pretend like this isn't true.) But quit acting like me making a suggestion is a fundamentally wrong thing to do. This is how "feedback" works. If you don't like it, you're welcome to say so. But every time one of you comes at me like I'm some retard who doesn't know why I made the suggestion in the first place, I have to stand up for myself. It is unfortunately making matters worse, but...a man's gotta have his pride!
"Are you by chance blind?" "If you are too lazy that's not our fault."
Only a picture of a blind old cat rubbing its belly after lapping up a bowl of milk and honey would do your ignorance justice. Sadly I don't know how to insert images.
Darken (despite bringing good points to the table, some of which I agree with), Azn, tardis, and Lennon: if you guys like teamwork so much, I SUGGEST you start working together on the formidable task of pulling your heads out of one another's asses. I keep saying "Hey, I guess no one agrees with me, oh well!" and you all keep beating the dead horse by trying to make me sound stupid for actually having the balls to make the suggestion regardless of its triviality. What are you accomplishing by calling me lazy? By declaring matter-of-factly that no one cares about my suggestion? By shooting down all of my alternative ideas and stating that I know nothing of teamwork--which, by the way, WAS NEVER AN ISSUE? You elitist pricks. The argument is done! If WIP keeps the idea at a red light then OKAY. That does not make me wrong for bringing it up, nor any of you right for derailing it. It just means people have different opinions; that we're all individuals who have ideas, big and small, worth sharing. Kumba-fucking-ya.

Is the name of developer that important that you need it right in your face all the time? (The answer is no)
No, the answer is it's convenient.

How is it hard to understand that A) The description area is perfectly fine, and B) There can be more than one person "leading" a project (think Knights Of The Round Table).
Because A is subjective and B was never the issue.

I'm getting a headache. It feels like I'm arguing about putting the eraser next to the chalk and everyone in the class thinks I'm stupid because of it.
"Dude, we can put the eraser wherever we want, it'll still be there."
Okay, fine. I'll just leave it on the floor and go back to my seat. Thanks for shutting me down guys, I really feel the love!

post=121999post=121997Ho-ho, you gave me a good idea! Why not do like Newgrounds does and include avatars next to the names of the developers? You don't have to move your detail section anywhere, and I get to identify the developers the fast way: by face.
...Newgrounds, submissions are a single page, and you have to scroll down to see the developers just like RMN. :)
Compromise!
Or here's another idea: insert the avatars (scaled down by size, of course) below, next to, or somewhere near the title--I personally think it would be cool if the avatar was sitting on a black bar like the ones with the game's genre and engine. Also, you can stack 'em side-by-side, one atop the other--whatever--when there is more than one developer. This would work in the game listings as well.
Compromise B! Am I brainstorming or what?
