One thing about newgrounds that pisses me off is the fact people can literally post a copy of a popular song and it not get filtered at all, like bro. If you put “forsaken” in the tags you will literally find people reuploading songs from forsaken to newgrounds, somebody literally uploaded “Compass” by Milli and it somehow got bypassed, like bro…
and then the people who reupload songs do it for the purpose of it being used in GD (Geometry Dash)- LIKE THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS, YOU DONT JUST POST A SONG THAT WAS ALREADY MADE, GET SCOUTED AND WHITELISTED JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT IT TO. (let me digitally calm down)
they don’t understand you have to be making a cover or a remix of the song for it to be scouted (unless it’s your song)

What you can do if you notice one of these cases would be to click the [Flag]-Button and write a short report. The tracks in question will usually get removed within half a day, if you were correct with your assessment.
