It can happen randomly, and sometimes it happens to you on purpose by a hater mod. Either way it can be a real pain in the ass. If you want to have something of value here, you have to be willing to fight for it. It also reminds us all, that there is no escape from NewGrounds. NewGrounds can literally consume your life if you allow it.

I know right. I have tried to escape NewGrounds twice, but both times I was dragged back in by petty hater mods. I would have loved of to have left back in 2017, but a certain rubbish loser prevented it. Said loser, has left the website since.
Oh well, what can you do?

Online time stands still taking a year to attain a goal appears to be unrealistic. Instant gratification. Level 60 or 61 needs to be dynamic or double the levels. I prefer the former trying to reach the -1 final level brought back lots of nostalgia

I doubt any mod knows I am here so I think locked or spam threads get deleted. I was a self-proclaimed shit poster. So lots of my posts are spam. I am valueless here I am only here to entertain myself. I agree I can't escape NG either damn. I was there it cost me unmeasurable amounts.

Are you sure? There are literally two mods arguing over sucking cock a few posts above this one.
Yes, I do agree that NewGrounds can be addicting. The entire website is built in a way to drag you in. Almost, like a giant video game with no end. I have been on NewGrounds since 2002, and on this account for over 17 years. I have had to regain lost posts, reviews, and medals over and over again.
Luckily, I have been able to accomplish almost all of my goals so far. Once I reach them all, will I finally be able to rest?

Of course I remember you man. I can guarantee you that we aren't deleting your posts though. They're absolutely from old accounts wanting deleted and then losing everything attached to them, even the threads they make.
They aren't obnoxious and hated by the general community like other users.

Well it's not as bad as FB is. The difference between both websites is that one makes you seriously addicted to it and the other one, is that it doesn't hold you back, it let's you do your own thing in here (as long as you follow the rules of course).
I find that FB is more addicting than NG is (but that's my opinion). If you have a goal in mind, then take it. As long as you're happy and having a fun time, then that's important. (I wanted to go with the most details, but I lost my thought on it).

FB can be seen as a time sink. At least, on NewGrounds you can actually being adding to the website with posts and submissions. Most things on FB just vanish away and have little to none lasting effect.

Mmm, though it's nice actually being able to reach the top level too. If the last one was still dynamic I don't think I'd be anywhere near it at this point, I wonder if I'd still be fighting for it...
Double the levels would be cool though. Could for simplicity maybe just maybe copy the first set and upgrade them somehow, get all the lesser levels in more valuable golden materia. :) Could even have that as an unofficial; secret kind of continual level upgrade, where the next level of levels isn't even mentioned the wiki...
I think too high EXP requirements might just dissuade new users from trying entirely though. We've had the benefit of being here since the early days, but it can't be so fun to try to get in on this game now. When it'll take decades to catch up, if you ever do, only if older users ever stop depositing.

Totally agree though. This place feels like freedom, FB not so much...
This feels like an expansion on life as well, whereas FB seems more like an alternative to it. More there to get you hooked on self-gratifying responses, and comparing yourself to others, than to really contribute anything worthwhile.
Life's good as it is, and NG's an entirely different kind of realm to dabble in if you want to, IMO.
