It says "Ouch, you just hit one of the brand new noise generators! These generators are available to contributing visitors first, then become public after a while."
I say, "Ouch, I've never heard of your site before and just followed a link here. I'll probably never come back. Bye."

- audiosampling 12y agoNice find. I put a lot of efforts, indeed. But I can't take it bad when pros like you are finding workarounds, to make the generator play despite of my poor coded restrictions. I know that you are the same people that are contributing anyway, once you have realised the amount of work behind the scenes. FYI, all generators turn public after a while. Including the Star Trek one. Unfortunately (for me), the link has been shared a bit to early. I may reconsider displaying such a message. Because, I totally agree, it is very frustrating for someone who doesn't know the site, and hit such a page as an entry page. He probably will go right away, without noticing that 90% of the generators are already available to him, for free.

- leorocky 12y agoWho ever developed that site has probably never heard of the engagement pyramid[1], you always have fewer contributors than non-contributing users. That kind of crowd sourced content mechanism is only hurting the site's growth. Consider imgur and reddit as examples where it's done right. They're defying reality. You can't turn that pyramid into a column. [1] http://i.imgur.com/y2Kuz1S.png http://i.imgur.com/y2Kuz1S.png
