Every time I go look for a flash I wanna see, I see a lot of the same one uploaded, like older versions of it or another uploader. Can we PLEASE get so many deleted?

If it's an EXACT duplicate, the newer one can be flagged as a duplicate of the newer one. The url gives you the id to enter.

It may be various fixes or subtle changes, so it may be worth it to list what you're referring to so we can determine if they're dupes or not.

Flash games are actually one of those thing that should be cleaned up at some point, but with especially games it actually requires some knowledge and/or changelogs. Also some level of pooling with more information for version history in pool description.
But if you see flash which is direct update, in a way that there's only extra content and fixes in newer version and it doesn't break or remove anything, please do flag old version for deletion as inferior. Like said, having all versions makes browsing much harder and it doesn't make any sense to preserve objectively inferior versions.

If it's exact, then site should prevent it from being uploaded. Usually with flash something can get fixed, so make sure that newer version doesn't have anything done compared to older version and usually it's safer to keep newer version - good example jasonafex flash files, all of those were updated, but with most you could see difference only when scaling the content.
