** Three years later, Newgrounds finally took the fight to the game itself. A user lodged a complaint against Geometry Dash, resulting in it being removed from Steam. The result is an ongoing war between a community whose [[SturgeonsLaw 10% is coming out of the woodwork]] and a media platform being represented by a... rather hostile audio moderator.[[note]]Despite the AlphaBitch shades the posts have, they're not completely unjustified. After all, anyone being told they're going to ''[[SerialEscalation die or get raped]]'' would probably snap. Though some have started to claim that it's 100% their fault after DramaticallyMissingThePoint with regards to the effects of their attitude, effectively demonizing those attempting to negotiate, and placing the points of the defense next to the truly guilty to invalidate them. They may be right.[[/note]]

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: [[OneHundredPercentCompletion beating the full game]] is pretty hard to do if you aren't at least 12, because of the difficulty of some achievements (such as getting a star - rated level, beating 50 demons, collecting 4000 stars etc). It was relatively easy in old updates, but as the game progressed, there were more unlockables for different things. Then again, this isn't the type of game that one plays for a short time and quits upon completion

** The admins added a patch a couple of years after the game's release to prevent users from automatically downloading copyrighted music which helped slow down Geometry Dash dumpers a bit. Although, it did add a slightly different problem to the mix; the Geometry Dash dumpers going to the forums begging to be scouted just to use the music for Geometry Dash. [[BigNo Everyone usually has the same response]] towards them regardless of if they can scout them or not.
