Add a new rule to post only acapellas as examples

[woven burrow]

Some people still post fully made covers of some songs, with instrumental, which is kinda risky, so I suggest that we add a rule to post only acapellas as examples in #1159289700490694666

Vote for this suggestion!

[loud creek]

how is it risky?

[woven burrow]

some people still post copyright songs in a form of their ai covers, and that might get the server banned again, but if people will post only acapellas and voices without the music then the risk will dissapear in my opinion

[loud creek]

oh risky in that regard

i guess

[short chasm]

I think this is should be fine

[weary hornet]

or just use non copyrighted songs

[woven burrow]

if only it was that easy

[short chasm]

how do you know if a song is copyrighted or not

[loud creek]

dont post non original content if that makes any sense. so if youre making a cover make sure its just an acapella

and if you are not sure if its copyrighted, just assume it is

[weary hornet]

Just use a minecraft parody

@weary hornet has reached level 7.

[short chasm]

anything “belongs” to someone who can claim it, unless it is your own creation 100%

[loud creek]

yes, i just mean to mitigate the risk

[mystic canopy]

media uploads should be removed instead. External links are okay, as long as the content isn't hosted on Discord CDN

[woven burrow]

i think it will be too uncomfortable, uploading audio is fine as long as it's just an acapella

[mystic canopy]

It's still a risk and it can be exploited + it needs 24/7 moderation

If it was up to me, attachments would be only available above lvl 100

Shouldn't be "too uncomfortable" to click a link tho :)) Why?

At least it's not posing a risk of copyright infringement

[urban shore]

thats a crime

[mystic canopy]

Yeah, I know... That'd be the only way to prevent reduce certain exploitations

[dusty oriole]

idk, at least shazam (the app to detect music) is detecting acapellas anyway

[woven burrow]

Shazam doesn't count, because it's made to recognize songs

[dusty oriole]

if you upload an acapella to yt so meny times detect copy

I've posted a similar suggestion, but for keeping singing samples short so as not to reveal the entire song.

It was eventually rejected but will be revisited if there's a need for it.

[grave isle]

Deviate away from that vocal's pitch bends, and Shazam won't recognize it anymore, even with the original singer.

I had a sawtooth wave sample that followed it and was recognized.

It doesn't have to be a sawtooth wave, just a harmonically rich one should be sufficient.

[weary gyro]

personally i just make it a youtube video and post that

[plucky violet]

It's in the rules tho

[woven burrow]

i think they added it after my suggestion. i made this suggestion long time ago, many things have changed since then :)

[plucky violet]

Rules were sent 10 / 10 / 23
Your suggestion 10 / 9 / 23

[woven burrow]

[woven burrow]

i wasn't even a helper at that time

[severe escarp]
