Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

I am away from jj2 but want to comment to this any ways.

We hold no grudge against CC. But the user Black Energy was given low status because of account abuse, and thus should not review at all. Same with ShadowXR.

If we see a level with an average rating between the 5.2 and 5.5 we do suspect something is wrong when a friend of Craccoboy suddenly gives a 9.2 review. As the rules say: “2. Rating levels obviously unfair(give a level with an average rating of 2, a 10, or one with an average rating of 10, a 2, or something like that. (try not to rate your own friend’s levels in a biased way)”.

I have said this a lot of times, but I am NOT biased towards GPW or any clan. If you want to know why Black Energy was banned, just PM me.

Craccoboy, I don’t think your argument about Disguise’s tilesets is right. The situation is not comparable. Disguise’s files generally get high ratings. When we suddenly see friends of Disguise rating his levels high, while all other non-friends rate his tilesets high too, why should we suspect something? If everyone gave one of his tilesets a 5 and a friend suddenly rated it 10 we would remove that review just as well. You see, everyone holds different opinions. Some rate less strict then others. Because of this, different people rate levels differently. One rates it 7, the other 8. This is only a small margin, however. We simply don’t trust differences of 5 points. Such a difference has nothing to do with one’s own ‘opinion’. If you truly rate things for their eyecandy and gameplay, or whatever factors, you can’t have such huge differences in the ratings, because while one may dislike the level for the gameplay and another one might like the gameplay, even someone who dislikes the gameplay will see that it has quality, even though it’s not his style.(Compare it with music. You may not like the classic rock genre, but it’s still good, it’s just not your style). This is called objectivity. If everyone rates objectively(and there is a lack of people who do that) you won’t have 5 point differences. Or are you accusing Disguise and Flash of being biased against you? ;p

[——-EDIT——-]
No, Craccoboy, you can’t be held responsible for Bolt and ShadowXR. It’s simply so that as they were banned they weren’t allowed to review.

And it’s the high rater’s side against the low rater’s side. The difference between the sides was that the people who rated high were your friends. Friends generally are a whee more biased. I have reason to think Flash and Disguise aren’t biased. I have enough reason to think the two banned persons who have a history of biased ratings were biased. And Jackass, suddenly started to review, starting with the level of his friend. This does not help make his case more believable, still, maybe his review shouldn’t have been deleted. The reviews of the two banned persons would have been deleted even if they had given one of Shadow’s levels a good rating.

I am sorry that I thought the 5.x reviews were earlier then the biased ones. I still think that it was just to delete the reviews for the reasons I mention here.

I am also sorry that we made the rating of your level go lower, but that’s just how we work. Let’s see if the next people who rate this level (unbiased) will make the rating go higher.[This review has been edited by FQuist]

You can also host serers unlisted using xjj2..Just make one and then click the button ‘Click here to delist your server’. And ofcourse like the others said. So pretty useless.

I dun like it, it’s just difficult to play.[This review has been edited by ShadowGPW]

WHATTA!!!? Why are the most reviews ( the ones higher as a 5.5 I mean) deleted??? If a person has an opinion I don’t think somebody else can just say: ow, I don’t agree with that …Let’s just get it away!!
I don’t think that’s normal!!
And now I know you all will say things like: But it were all friends who gave the good points and blablabla…. But that’s not true!!! The leader of JOL gave a high rating to ( and JOL aren’t really the biggest friends of CC).
I hope you all know what I mean and will change something about this.

[admin]okey now make a good review and rate it FAIR, Just press the Edit button and make a good review. [/admin][This review has been edited by ShadowGPW]

[Admin warning] Rule 2 abuse, rating 1.5

This certainly isnt what I expected from a tileset with an average rating of 8.7 at all. I’m very suprised that it got that rating in the first place.

I can see that you’re all friends of shad.

Don’t rate your friends tilesets in a biased way, read the J2o rules!

These levels are below average. Download them and see for yourself.

No download reccomedation!![This review has been edited by ShadowGPW]

(original rating 3.5)

I can see that you’re all friends of shadow.

Don’t rate your friends tilesets in a biased way, read the J2o rules!

Bad levels. Too boring, not useful at all. The eyecandy isn’t really eyecandy, it’s more eyepoo. I expected something better from you!

No download reccomedation!![This review has been edited by ShadowGPW]

Hmmm, I really like Alien Homeland. It’s one of Disguise’s best tilesets ;-)

RockyG is not bad either, but the others aren’t that good. There just aren’t enough tiles in each one, maybe you should try to merge these 5 tilests into a multi-theme tileset, then I would give it at least a 7,5.

For now, I’ll give it a 6.[This review has been edited by CraccoBoy]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bows before Reddy!^^[This review has been edited by Piccolo]

MUST… DOWNLOAD… VERY FEW… PROBLEMS… AWSOME… BOSS MUSIC!

sw33t

Normal installation.

INSTALLATION RATING: =

Good eyecandy to keep the level playable, but that is not the focal point of the level.

EYECANDY: 2/3

Weapon and carrot placement are great! The navigation makes inventive use of triggers, and the gameplay is innovative (and ported to Jazz quite well, I must say)!

WEAPONS: 1.8/2
NAVIGATION/CARROTS: 3.8/4
SUBTOTAL: 5.6/6

The level that pioneered Assault. Enough said.

OVERALL “FEELING”: 1/1

Download! You are certainly missing something if you aren’t downloading this.

TOTAL SCORE: 8.6/10
ROUNDED SCORE: 8.7/10 [This review has been edited by SteelTalon]

I’ve tested this pack fairly extensively over the internet, and I’ve enjoyed it. There have been problems with levels going to each other but I’ll review what I can.

No problems with installation. There was a readme to boot.

INSTALLATION RATING: +

Obviously the strong point of the pack. Shadow obviously knows what he is doing visually, and it shows with his appealing style of mapping.

EYECANDY: 3/3

Weapons and gameplay are the downfall of this pack. Weapon placement is mediocre and level navigation is poor. Carrot placement is awful.

WEAPONS: 1.2/2
NAVIGATION/CARROTS: 2.1/4
SUBTOTAL: 3.3/6

Feels like a solid, polished pack to me; but it lacks the charm of a classic.

OVERALL “FEELING”: .7/1

Pretty decent levels overall. I’m borderline on giving a download reccomendation, but since a good deal of others like it I’d reccomend you download it.

TOTAL SCORE: 7/10
ROUNDED SCORE: 7/10

Wargh! Too nice for words.. Now, a few then.

Eyecandy is the best. Top. Super. Total good. Verygood use of the tilesets, nice that “blah nice blah super blah good”.

Gampplay is good, but not so nice like the eyecandy. Let’s upload it.

PU&Weapon Placement is pretty amazin’. Here and there some Bouncys, There and here what Peppys. Nice.

Music rocks. That’s the only what i can say. Let’s say it. I say it. Yeah?

Overall: Tha best battle pack (Err.. Blade’s BP have that too.) ever. Download this now or you are a chicken leg.

I think the pack was fun, but the lvls were a bit confusingly long

Hey, this is good but there are so many mistakes
1-Use the 3.layer for only secret goodies.
2-Don’t put so much enemies.
3-Don’t use backgrounds like foregrounds.
4-The lvls are confusing as you said in Tubelectric.
You must work more to make better lvls.

I loved that pack. Especially the Carrotus level was fun!

download this!

realy cool idea,
realy cool level.[This review has been edited by _Jaws]

Jackass, bolt and ShadowXR
Just to be clear we still have rules (press view rules) but to make it easy i just copied and paste it

“The following things are forbidden at J2O, persistently breaking the rules may result in banishment from the site:
1. Rating one’s own levels.
2. Rating levels obviously unfair(give a level with an average rating of 2, a 10, or one with an average rating of 10, a 2, or something like that. (try not to rate your own friend’s levels in a biased way)
3. Using multiple accounts to influence the rating

When trying to review, try to be fair. Don’t rate too high. Don’t rate too low. Rate objectively. Rate the level on all aspects.”

I’m bringing everyone down or lower the rating if its unacceptable. no matther from who.
Also user B0lt (B0lt EL and BlackEnergy) isn’t even allowed to review sinds he has 6 warnings, 2 accounts mis-used but to be honest I didn’t wanna be a pain for them so i didn’t lower his status.
User ShadowXR (Originally ShadowJOL) Has also a low account so offically he cant review/rate/post a level, but agian didn’t want to spoil it but perhaps we should have done that.

User Jackass, he is your friend and has never reviewed anything else, Accept yours.

Perhaps the last one was Questionable and perhaps a mistake to delete his comments. But his rating would be how ever not be fair compared to the other more experianced reviewers and raters[This review has been edited by ShadowGPW]

Hmm. At first, I see that all high raters are friends of CraccoBoy. Hmm.

Okay, my review. The tileset consists of snowmen, ripped tiles from the epic tilesets and ripped tiles from other games. Some tiles are made bigger (bigger size) than the original tiles so they are ugly and pixelated. The snowmen are nice anyway, but with only snowmen you can’t make levels. There is some stuff to make platforms of, some weird animals, some ice and some pole stuff. Also there is paint-drawn stuff, and since paint isn’t that great, the tiles aren’t great. The textured backgrounds are ncie anyway. I would say this: Concentrate more on drawing platforms stuff instead of snowmen and ripping tiles and the tileset would be much better.

Add: I agree a bit with Craccoboy, but I’m not really a “friend” of Disguise and I rate his tilesets high too. And when I see that members of your own clan are rating your tileset very high and me and Disguise are not, I think something is wrong
