Try pressing F5 if your not seeing it. I updated it within minutes of leveling up.

Well now you gotta reach level 61.

I see the level 59 icon not the level 60. You might want to update it again. On and congrats on reaching the final level. Had it been the old system none of us would be anywhere near the top level.

Level 60 isn't the final level.

Level 61 is.

Really? I'm seeing the level 60 icon.

I see it now I had to do a hard refresh seeing as the normal one wasn't doing it.

Over 140,000 medal points!

Seriously all you need to do is press F5 and you'll see it. If I can see it and others can already see it, it's not a problem on my end, it's on your end. F5 and see for yourself.

Oh and thanks very much by the way.

I guess I should of came into the thread and read this. I just read it from my feed. Ooops! Oh well, thanks anyway.

Ouch. That's always annoying. Glad to see your face around though, Washu. You might not remember me, but I remember when you'd come around the barracks in '06/'07.

Grats on level 60, @gamejunkie!

Actually I was in the barracks since I believe 2005-2006 seeing as I remember I was still a silver whistle user back then. But to be honest I miss the way the barracks used to be compared to how it is now. Back then it was a chill place where we could actually talk with friends as well as help keep the portal clean.

However now it is just a spot to report abusive flash so the portal mods can unpublish it.

Agreed, although at least the portal gets cleaned immediately instead of the stuff being removed post judgement and our B/P removed. The Barracks working with the mods is a good thing for NG as a whole, similar to how the audio abuse report thread is good for the AP.

The EGB had already started to become a bit empty even before now, when EagleRock and the others disappeared. I still miss users like @HeavenDuff, @Sentio, etc., and the long paragraphs we'd all trade about our days -- you know the drill -- salutes, protocol. That was back when we could get ourselves banned for encouraging a zero/five, and now, as the saying goes, "v0te appropriately". @Byteslinger pops in now and again with a salute and a roster, and you might remember @idiot-buster, formerly buster1, from that time period. I'm glad at least the EGB didn't die out like the PD did. A sad place, that is.

Newgrounds is running very slowly nowadays... The same goes for pretty much all the clubs and crews these days...

Haha! Thanks for remembering me :P But hey, I was one of the guys who'd encourage people to vote zeros :P I was a repeat offender as they call them!

But yeah, it was pretty cool back then. But the BBS is kind of dying slowly, as is the website. But the website as a whole is surviving better then the BBS. There are countless websites with a bigger membership, so it kind of shows in here, with most of the clubs being slowly abandonned. The Metal Hell used to be very active, but lately it's been very slow, like the other clubs you mentioned.

Hey, glad to see you back here! I didn't even know you were still alive! But I agree. The only thing that seems to still be kicking is General. I bet this is why Tom is asking everyone to contribute as a Supporter. Sadly, my school blocks CPMstar ads. I'm very upset about that.

I shied away from it, but it wasn't 'cause I didn't sway to the left side of the panel. Truth be told, I hardly got any B/P because I'd usually vote 1 instead of 2 on those KK spam flashes we used to get. I still don't get much B/P, and I'm fine with that. Anyway, how could I forget you? We went through the Barracks Under Fire and all those other little tales on the Barracks forum, offsite. :P

It seems to be slowing down, especially in the C&C. Hardly ever see a yellow icon next to a forum any more. All people use most of the forums now for are to post their music in the AP, post their art in the Art Forum, report flash in the C&C, and talk shit in General. I'm not sure if people are getting discouraged from over-moderating or what, or if it's just because they don't like changes to the site. For one, I hate the voting overhaul, and that you can't vote as an anon anymore. At least I think we used to be able to do that. I think we need to go back to the settings that worked in the glory days and hold over the news features and feeds. That'd help a lot.

Level 61 is an unknown. Nobody has reached it yet.

Yeah, I'm still around. Not quite as active as before, but I do visit the website often. But I don't understand how the fact that your school blocks CPMstar ads stopping you from being a Supporter. Care to explain?

Haha, the Klock Krew. I remember when we had like three or four of the spam flashes crew who'd upvote each other through to the portal. What were they called again? One had the word syndicate in it's name. One was a word play on klock... the glock crew or something, and they'd make animations like the KK, but with glocks instead of clocks. Omg...

But the barracks tales! Where are they displayed nowadays? Because there is still the semi-official barracks website, but the tales are not showing there. At least not in the Barracks tales section.

Yes, we used to be able to vote even if we were not members. But I think the website is just getting slower traffic and is less popular because flash animation has become less popular. I don't think it has much to do with the moderation or the changes. Flash animation and flash games used to be big. Miniclip, Shockwave, and the greatest of all... Newgrounds. Mini-games are now more of a portable device thing. People who want to play mini-games download them on app stores on their cellphones or iPads. As for flash animation, it also seemed to lose popularity. And with other huge broadcasting and streaming websites like YouTube and Twitch, websites like NG aren't getting much attention anymore.

And when it comes to the "community" aspect of the website, there are other websites with a bigger and more active community like Reddit or 9gag. As for the Metal Hell, since it's so damn slow, I've decided to look for more specialized forums when it comes to music.

I don't know if the admins of NG are to blame. They initiated the big wave of flash animation, they rode it like real pros, but maybe there just isn't much of a wave left anymore :/

What goals do you have now that you've reached the pinnacle?

100,000 B/P, 10,000 BBS posts might even start doing Reviews again.

With that vote, you now have 19,580 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 43

Took forever, but I'm there. Level 43.
