Well, I was browsing through General, and I came across this thread.

I was too late in writing my reply, because the topic was locked. Here is just a little exerpt from my "almost post"

Irony. At it's finest.

You see, while Neph and Asdf are talking about bans and what not, they have not only disregarded the original topic, but have failed to see a perfect example of what the topic starter had originally complained about.

The fact that you two are volleying irrelevant conversation in a thread that was designed for users to talk about feeling non-important, you have disregarded the topic starters comments, and by doing so, you might have amplified his concern about not feeling important.

What the fuck is going on? Why did asdfsdfg want a ban so badly? Why are people challenging our new Mods? What the hell is happening???

Anyway, shine some light on the subject if you can.

Well my guess is theyre trying to push the limits of the new mods, see how far they can go with them. You never know some people are sick like that.

Congrats Ramagi on getting 45k, man thats a sweet number.

Haha. I read through that topic and never picked that up. The topic starter was nothing to me. Perhaps they were being ironical on purpose?

Why did asdfsdfg want a ban so badly?

Maybe asdf was testing Neph?

Why are people challenging our new Mods?

Dunno. The new mods are always the ones who'll give out the bans easiest. Gotta make it known they're the new kids on the block.

What the hell is happening???

Another major spam fest. In the spirit of pussy, it's penis. If a mod sees this, before it's been taken care of, please delete that guys posts and fix up the General board.

yay.

And I took up the call!! *waits for pat on head* Nah but seriously I reckon that by modding Nephthys 90% of occasions like that will be cleared up tbh. That said, it wouldn't hurt for deck_head or you to be modded, it's much better IMO to have too many mods than too few... Anyway I'm going to stop talking about GMT mods now, I reckon it's gonna start pissing people off pretty soon.

Yeah, I reckon SCuD (as I like to call him :D) would make quite a good mod. And at the rate we're going, all the regulars will be made mods anyhow!

although my eyes it shouldn't be top of Ng's list of 'things to do', i feel a new GMT mod is much needed as the ammount of english users is increasing.

On a different note iv noticed the LUL is slowing down on posts, not that iv been around for all that long, i like it this way : ) especially being British myself i tend to miss the 'prime posting times'.

Hey, I suggested that long ago! I said that it would be a good idea if we had more English mods because there are certain times in the day when there aren't any (or not very many) mods around. And I put someone's name forwarsd, but I forget who it was.

Maybe they're jealous?

And I also think SCD would make a great (if often plastered) mod :D
And I agree with delteated that more mods is a good thing.

Hey, anyone ever watch Little Britain? It's one of the funniest TV shows in a while. It was on BBC1, I think. 1st series is finished, but they're making a new one soon.

It would help if people didn't post in the bumped topics, or then make another topic saying "STOP WITH THE ______ TOPICS!!!!!!!" But people are idiots.

There's so many topics on 'Person would be a great mod', and it's almost becoming spammy from the way I see it..
Sure, there are new mods... so there have been a FEW topics about Ozcar and Neph the past little bit, but there are so many newer threads for nominations.... not like they really get a say in the decision anyways.

It's almost sad that people are making topics about themselves using alt-accounts.
The 'Hulk for Mod' topic is made by a Level 1, whos sign up date was only yesterday, I think I saw a cool_penguin_0 for mod, an Earfetish one, a Rabid-Echinda one...
AC500BELOW made a 'Appreciation thread' for himself, TWICE, using different alt-accounts. Just search Topics including AC500BELOW in the bottom corner, read the threads, theyre pretty funny.

But... yeah, back to the mod topic, I dont think there should be any new more mods for a while.... the additions of Ozcar, Alastor, and Neph are plenty, because they are on quite often.
But the topics nominating others to be modded are quite annoying....

I read through this topic since my previous post, and the only person worthy of congratulating from what i see is ramagi for hitting 45K B/Ps, great job!

Well, you can't prove they made alts but if that's true, then it's really sad. Just think about that for a moment. You'd have to be a complete numpty to do that. And I agree that posting "_______ for mod!" probably has no effect no mod nominations but some people just like to make their appreciation for another BBS user known.

*leaves to check out those appreciation threads*

They're all spammy. Someone should just make an 'Nominate the next mod!' topic, although I think I might have seen one of those in the past.

Those were two pretty stupid mistakes. If you're going to make an appreciation topic for yourself(wich is sad already) at least do it right :P

I hate it when there's a new acronym on the block and you've got no idea what it means. I first saw AFAIK in a post of gfox's, accompanied by JSYK. I sat there pondering for a while and managed to decipher AFAIK (as far as I know, as has been explained) but I had to ask about JSYK (just so you know, as it turned out). It seems there's a new one every month.

New acronym on the block? AFAIK and JSYK are two insanely ancient, in internet time, acronyms, man. They were both heavily in use when I got online in 1994. Hell, they've probably been used since you were born, dude. "New one every month" my ass. I haven't learned any new acronyms in years.

Even if you don't, you'll get there eventually through deposits. That way you'll hit 10.00 even too, which is awesome. Poor D0GMA skipped right over it.

Indeed. Highly preferable to skipping over it. I am so glad I didn't skip over 10. Especially because I'd skipped over almost ALL of the even VPs from 6 to 9. :::nods:::

Hopefully that URL will work for ya and anyone else. It's the path of Tropical Storm/Hurricane Ivan since it moved into the Western Atlantic in the first place. It goes along, passes Cuba, sweeps up along the west edge of FL, it smashes into Alabama... it moves up into TN and NC and then up to Pennsylvania, I think (it's off the map at that page, unfortunately), then it somehow CURVES BACK DOWN INTO THE ATLANTIC, goes down the coast... crosses through FL and gets into the gulf again... crosses its path from the first time towards the USA's coast... and comes up to Louisana. Once it enters Texas, I've heard it will either curve SW and go down the coastline (but over land, not over water like it's mostly been doing everywhere)... or it will curve NW. We'll see.

It's not going to be anywhere near as bad for the Houston area as Tropical Storm Allison in early June 2001 was, that I can assure you.

Even if there's a ring of truth in a criticism, correction, or whatnot that I give someone, all you have to do is ask yourself this question:

From what I've seen of gfox's posts to me, is there even a 10% chance that gfox views me as a friend on NG or in ANY sort of favourable light at all?

Um... man... topics on NG BBS, if you haven't noticed, do one of three basic things:

die out right away.

live on forever for their original purpose (like this one... kinda).

are about one topic for maybe half the first page, then change subjects.

It may be kinda sad that a topic about a guy feeling neglected or something (though the job of the other people on this BBS isn't to make that guy feel accepted here because he needs attention or whatever...)... became more about other things than it was about him.

It's just a designed-for-NG-BBS notepad.exe, basically.

Notepad on steroids! :-O Besides, like I posted earlier, even Microsoft Word couldn't have caught that mistake. "Our" and "your" are completely grammatically interchangeable. (OGM big words!)

I stand corrected. Oops. I read the second link, but missed the 2nd page. When I read the 2nd page, I had to laugh. What a complete arse. His only defence after being exposed was, "you've got your head too far up your ass"

Yea, that's like taking a shit and pulling up your trousers before you've finished.

And well done on your rank up _Amir_Basit_Aburabi_ :D

Heh, yeah... though I dont visit the C&C that often (and Quikfox does), we usually manage to spot out hilariously ridiculous stuff that morons post on the BBS....
Using alt-accounts and such, being incredibly obvious.

I don't talk to him much on Newgrounds, but Im a mod at his forums... so... yeah, we usually just have our own mini-conversations in the mod-forums there... seeing as theres no-one else to interrupt our fun =O.
Together, we managed to harass AC500BELOW enough that he had to cough up the facts about his alt-accounts.
Quikfox was also the one to discover the e-mails being identical at the time....
I dont think they like eachother that much.... =O

-------------------------------

And I see gfox has gone on another posting frenzy... Im sure this page will hit a new page of responses to posts in no-time....
Well, maybe not... seeing as theres an absense of a certain somebody...

And what if you would have been banned for posting in the topic? Consider it a GOOD thing, sometimes, that you didn't get to post a flame before the lockage happened.

Na, I was just joking :D
I didn't want to put a smiley face in there, it just didn't look right. But sometimes, if the spammer has shown an unbelievable level of retardedness, you just can't help but flame them. Oh, and speaking of acronyms, I've heard of In My Opinion or In My Humble Opinion but does anyone know what IMAO means?

Hey, anyone ever watch Little Britain? It's one of the funniest TV shows in a while. It was on BBC1, I think. 1st series is finished, but they're making a new one soon.

It's here in the US on BBC America. I saw a little bit of it. Seemed like a newschool Monty Python of sorts. I prefer my Canadian Kids in the Hall, though. #;-}>

Kids in the Hall? Haven't heard of that. Little Britain is a bit like Monty Python, yea. I love all those movies! But the best British comedy in the last few years is definitely The Office. A work of comic genius. Everyone should watch it.

An irrelevant post to Newgrounds...
but my god... is Retrogade down AGAIN!?

Seems Bedn must be having some serious troubles keeping the website up and running, not like theres anything to new or interesting there though.

IM GUNNA MISS A DEPOSIT! Now ill never make it to level 8!

Heh. Well, that can happen when gfox posts one huge 6k chunk, then tries to post the next and finds out it's a bit over 6.5k.... and then has to clip out a few little bits and repost it and then posts a third 5k-ish chunk... and boom, SK's replied to the first bit but now there's stuff in one of the two other bits he wants to reply to. #;-}>

Now... once I go and DL your new update of the post editor, I should be set without having to use two separate .txt files and multiple instances of notepad! WOO HOO! #;-}>

I'll definitely have it DLed and in use by the next time I catch up in here (tomorrow night, most likely, after I do the VP list update and all).

... heh. I didn't mean anything negative by the "just" up there, but anywho... yep.

I like notepad's font and dimensions better than your program's, though, unfortunately. #;-}> The ONE drawback.

A mini-frenzy. Of sorts. #;-}>

Anyway, have fun with all the replying-to-gfox's-huge-3-posts, guys. I'll be around tomorrow like I said up there, hopefully I'll keep up on this topic a lot better for awhile longer... we shall see.

Yes, but which is worse:

Not sharing your opinion of the spammer with the spammer (and BTW, it's 95% that the idiot will never read what you wrote to him)...

or...

Getting banned for replying to a spam topic?

I'd take A over B any day of the week if I was a mortal BBS user like you. #;-}>

Kids in the Hall is the greatest sketch show, aside from Monty Python... EVER.

It was produced for several years in the 90s in Toronto. It featured five hilarious Canadian bastards. You gotsta love it. Go search on google and find some fan site or something. You may find a scene description or even a video clip or two.

And yes, I've seen the Office. The characters are quite rich, but... in a way, it's kinda like the British attempting to make a more dull version of Seinfeld (the prototypical show about nothing). The plots don't often have that much to interest me, considering how interesting the characters are... but anyway, my gf loves it, so I've seen some of it as a result.

I've apparently seen more British TV shows than you've seen Canadian ones. #;-}>

Whoops.

Seems Bedn must be having some serious troubles keeping the website up and running, not like theres anything to new or interesting there though.

Probably because of all the advertising of the site he's trying to do to get new users (Which proceed to swamp the site in views and fuck everything up for teh bandwidth quotas).

And he was all happy with the new hosting and all. Ah well, let's hope it doesn't last two weeks like it did lsat time.

IM GUNNA MISS A DEPOSIT! Now ill never make it to level 8!

hhahahahah. Anyway, I was considering catching up on the RG BBS topics I like to keep up on, and maybe doing some more PS portal reviewing.... guess I don't gotta worry about that this weekend after all. I'll stick with posting here and trying to get some reviews down in the flash portal instead.

Anyway, 6942 is a nifty number. I AM OUT FOR TONIGHT. See you guys tomorrow, and I'll be bringing teh VP listness with me. WATCH OUT!

Late!

Hrm? What font is your Notepad using, then?

Jesus, this topic sure did grow an incredible amount since I last posted! O_O
Well, congrats to all who leveled up!
Thanks to some “young” upstarts, I have been bumped from spot “46" to “48" in blams and saves. No matter, they will give up soon enough. At least, I hope they will.

Also, I wanted to tell you guys about my new Club I opened in the Clubs & Crews section of Newgrounds, "Philosophic Tentacles".
If any of you are into Philosophy with a side of debating, please join, the Club is just starting, so the more members to help kick start it, the better.
Thanks!

Mike

I just posted there, and I dint even know you posted in here =O
I think I kinda joined... with that post I made in there....
It should be a successful club... my only concern is all of the opinions given, it may turn into a massive argument, and soon become a flame fest.
