alright, normally i try and keep my nose clean of adult material, but reading this i guess ill say something
for the newgrounds slogan... yeah, that is a little... left wing (and i'm not using the word lightly) and you bring up a good point that there should be awards for different genres... but, i'm going too play the devil here... doing that equals crap loads more work for them, more bandwidth, etc,, i believe you would realize that, being an animator and a skilled artist from the picture you have here. He might be listening, but can it be done? ...maybe, maybe not, perhaps he needs someone too be an adult category moderator, or a bot for that, like P-bot, A-bot, etc. it's a very strong and valid argument and, siding with the slogan of this website, everyone should have an equal shot at achieving prizes, as for the stolen art... well, the website 'wilderness' is changing so that might one day be a thing of the past... hopefully

Hes not deleting them he is simply not going to allow them to gain daily awards. This allows for a seriously amazing game or movie to not be overshadowed by a pornographic flash voted high by a bunch of horny teens.
The movies/games will remain, and still be stolen for ad revenue(which isn't a bad thing) and gaining views is probably still more successful for a hentai movie anyway even if it's never front paged

I don't recall mentioned the word delete..
I will ask you, what happens when the adult flash is seriously amazing?
this type of general method of thinking about adult content is what I'm (foolishly -.-) trying to prevent. All of it is not trash galleries of copyrighted crap. Though a lot of it is.
What will happen is it will get overshadowed. I'm not saying it should be in the spotlight. But it can still have it's own niche. maybe like the adult flash of the week or something. How can spam get awards and this not? lolwut?
Again if you coded it yourself or collabed, did all the art yourself or collabed and sfx yourself or through collaboration with others, and the characters are not copyright, your own music or audio portal. It should be able to compete for something.
like bam this is the best of something. maybe not a daily or w/e but something.
Also what of the users just looking for a cheap laugh. Lots of overshadowing going in that area.
