Thanks for voting, PenisFromHell! Your experience has been automatically deposited!

With that vote, you now have 900 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 10. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 23 hours, 41 minutes, and 41 seconds.

The more experience points you have, combined with BLAM and PROTECTION points, the more your vote is worth!

also, pen0r!

Yeah, plus Fernando rocks. But there's only 2-3 songs I enjoy on there, and that's not enough for me to call myself a fan of a GTA station, alas.

In San Andrea, I prefer K-DST to Radio X...

Indeed K-DST was good. Along with Radio X those are like the only two stations I ever listen too when playing SA.

Usually, yeah. But drive-bys/gang warfare in LA are always best set to Radio Los Santos.

No way. Chatterbox is teh shit!

Well, IIRC, that is a Lazlow channel, but I'd rather listen to him in VC or VCS. So far in 4, he's only on the ZIT! song indentifier number for me, I haven't gotten to Manhattan/gotten his radio station activated yet.

And in 3, I'm only on the 2nd area, so I haven't listened to the stations there as much as in just about any other GTA save LCS, which I don't have.

You'll be there as well, soon.

Yeah, ever since I got the GTA pack on Steam in September, I no play the PS2 versions no more, so I mostly use my own mp3s, too. Specially in GTA3. In VC, I'll probably use a mix, like I do already in GTA4, where I alternate between my mp3s + Broker + LRR + a few others every now and again.

Granted, NG appeals to a wide age range, and a lot of new users are going to be starting in on the ground floor, age-wise, so to speak... every single year. But plenty of 20somethings and 30somethings find NG every year, too.

The only two times I will ever again really celebrate a stat achievement on NG, most likely:

1) when I get to the top 50
2) when I get to lv55 (and just cause of the nifty sword icon, the final icon worth getting for me, personally...)

3) ... eh, maybe I'll go crazy when I hit 36k exp, too.

Just snag 2 blams, man... and leave it for good. 28282 and 33333's pretty swell and the total b/p count ain't so bad, though it's not as nice a pattern. Congrats on the 33333.

Violent drunks. Hm, not exactly violent, more like very very very very very conservative catholics.

Not a big deal. I made up that little list as a guide for No, who at the time was having some trouble understanding this thread, as I recall. ;)
I'm not about to say that what I wrote there covers everything, especially since much of what is considered "congrats-worthy" is opinion based and varies from person to person. If anyone wants to use or add onto what I started, feel free. :)

'Dag' means either day or bye, but sometimes it´s used for hello as well (when you are familiar with someone). It means bye in this context obviously.

I'm getting really sick of these throwing stars. They were cool at first, but now they're just annoying me. 240 experience ... I can't wait until the next levelup. Anything to get rid of these.

I really don't like my current level either but we all have to go through the levels that we do not like, but i level up tomorrow and that level is better than this and i'm going ''back to my roots'' and going evil on your asses.

He is learning at a slow pace and hopefully he will get better in time... but what you said is funny and correct.

I liked level 25 for the few days I had it (redesign level switch), but I hated level 26, kind of the opposite of what you're thinking. Level 27 makes it all worth it, though.

Wasn't he nominated for Most Improved in the year end BBS awards? I could've sworn I saw him on there. Either way, I strongly disagree with that choice.

Level 27 and 28 are worth it for me then level 30 comes along and well it looks like a cheap plastic toy if you ask me. After that i like mmost of them. When the redesign hit i was only a level 11 not to say least its one of worst levels....

I don't think that was him I think it was Corky52. He still needs alot of work yet if he is to be nominated for next year, but i made that change in only a few months it is possible.

Yeah, level 30 was horrible. Level 31 made it a little worthwhile, though. I don't even remember 32 and 33, since I was gone for so long and harryjarry just deposited me through both of those. Doesn't look like I missed out on much, though.

True, but then there's also cases like shadowchaotailsevil3. He's been here for a while, but he never got better. This could just be another repeat of that.

Nice, not too far off then. Hacsev entered the top 400 a while ago, but he's still got at least 1000 B/P to go before entering the list.

A while ago or weeks ago? And, yeah, like 1,000 B/P to go.

Wait, what?

Huh!? :O

Why did you thank me twice?

Because I didn't thank you on my previous list.

I always wondering, what exactly is the 'thanks' for?

Well, really, it depends on the actual person. I, myself, along with a few others, thank anyone who makes a list. Possibly because others' lists can be useful to you when making your own list..

Some of the other users use the thanks list to thank people who congratulated them on some achievement that they posted..which makes sense as well..

Guidelines

Exp Levels & Milestones
Level 10 or above.
1,000 exp or above.
Any level or amount of exp. below these levels are typically disregarded.

Blam/Protect Levels & Milestones
Police Sergeant or above
1,000 b/p or above
As with exp, any amount of b/p below said above are not valid.

Posts
1,000 is the limit here. Though there are exceptions for special numbers that fall below 1K. Such as: 666, 123, etc...

Reviews & Review Responses
100 is typically the cutoff point for reviews, so don't post anything lower than that.
Review responses, on the other hand are harder to collect, therefor 50 may be acceptable.

Whistle Level
Any level up in whistle status is congrats-worthy. But congrats is not given if the user is REgaining a previously obtained whistle level after being demoted.

Other Stuff
RL (real life) birthdays and Newgrounds account anniversaries are good. (Also called Newgrounds "Berfdays")
Also "Total Stat" achievements, which are ALL your stats combined. (EXP + B/P + POSTS + REVIEWS)

Thanks to Metal-Therapy for writing these guidelines. Please help out and try to add these guidelines to the top, or as close to the top, of every page possible.

Granted, NG appeals to a wide age range, and a lot of new users are going to be starting in on the ground floor, age-wise, so to speak... every single year. But plenty of 20somethings and 30somethings find NG every year, too.

My point exactly. I was 19 when I joined 5 years ago and I don't think the 99er, the 01s or whom ever really cared and I don't really see why it should now.

Well Hacsev is a B/P machine, and I bet that assuming something doesn't come up for him he will have Sup. Commander by the end of the year, or will at least be very close. I mean, he has about 14k now, and won't have even been an NGer for a whole year until April!

WHY YOU BRING GFOX INTO IT? ;_;

Because I thought that you were not going to be on the baords for a long time again after said posting spree, so I hedged my bets :P Clearly, I lost.

The only two times I will ever again really celebrate a stat achievement on NG, most likely:

1) when I get to the top 50
2) when I get to lv55 (and just cause of the nifty sword icon, the final icon worth getting for me, personally...)

3) ... eh, maybe I'll go crazy when I hit 36k exp, too.

That's really quite sad :( I can't personally imagine passing milestones and not celebrating them. What about 36k Saves?!

Also, on a stat related note, I've just dropped a streak of 10+ Blams per day, which I've been able to sustain for a whole 24 days. Total Blams gained over that stretch - 388. Average Blams per day 15.52.

That's impressive. I can't even manage a combination of saves on gfoxcook and blams on gfoxclock that nears 10 per day....

Yeah, but I'm still not putting up the sorts of numbers that you put up in your heyday. I'm roughly about a 50/day average for B/P, but it's a struggle to maintain this pace :P

Mostly alcoholics... yes. Yes, they are. Best example is the Oktoberfest. XD

That and the comparrison to Scots was where that assumption came from ;)

Violent drunks. Hm, not exactly violent, more like very very very very very conservative catholics.

Try telling them that you approve of abortion and we'll see how violent they can be :P

But, it's nearly impossible to understand their accent. At least in certain areas of bavaria.

I think that might just be a regional thing - I havbe trouble understanding Cornish and Geordie accents, as when the locals get going, it's pretty much non-stop gibberish. Glaswegian is probably not helped by alcohol, though.

Yeah, the problem with the situation is not lost on me - I've had to go through it as well. But look on the bright side, you won't get throwing start until you're a hell of a lot higher leveled next :P

For you, that's 1,406 deposits away, so a long time ;)

It's pretty unlikely that someone will check back that far to see our Guidelines, especially if they don't know that they exist. If they're at the top of a page then people will see them regardless of when they post it, as you need to scroll down to the posts to click the 'Post Reply' button.
