Congrats indeed to you all. Keep it up!

Now I'm off to ring in the new year by going out and getting absolutely pissed.

Happy New Year!!!

I'm on probation so I won't be drinking tonight. Everybody else have a happy new year.

Huh? I never was prompted...I just figured out if you skip the animation by going to /home.php instead that it lets you log in. If I watch the animation and go through there, it just tells me I'm typing the wrong password.

Username = TRA, by the way.

Told ya, go to this instead. It causes log in problems if you dont. You won't need the activation code.

Possibly, are you into fireworks and photoshop?

Here's the link you want:

Make sure you go to home.php as you can skip the animation. Also,
it was causing log in problems for some users.

LOL What the hell??

At 12/31/04 05:12 AM, RedCircle wrote: Why apologize dude? Everything is fine =)

Actually...I got banned twice...that's how this started.

Well, if you like RG better, than that's fine with us. Many users here are also a part of RG so you will have friends over there from here.

After I was banned, I started posting on RG. Already I'm at lvl 7, in the top 50 for cash users, in the top reviewers, and have changed the folder icons in the BBS.

Heh, seriously, what are your goals for being on this website? I know at some point I wanna do some flash work, I like helping people, and I like doing lists. Have you ever thought to yourself why you come on NG in the first place?

I came to newgrounds to succeed. I'm ultra competitive. I can't help it.

Is it:
-To pass the time, relax and shit?
-To make friends?
-To let people see your flash and/or audio works?
-To be a Mod?
-To be part of the Wi/Ht Members List or Regulars List?
-To watch great movies and play fun games?
-To be popular on the BBS?

All of the above.

Seriously, I think most people go through that phase a few times, and it's ok. Hell, at some point, I was considering abandoning the Versus thread because I didn't feel anyone was into it, but instead of give into those feelings, I told myself that there were people out there that I was helping (giving credit to) and no matter how my feelings are, that still shouldn't come in the way of my passions.

Well, I'm not like that at all. After two years of posting, b/p, depositing, flagging, and reviewing....what? I've been banned 3 times in the last two weeks or some. Everything I've done commands no respect, and gets no recognition what-so-ever. I said I'd still deposit and post...I just give up on trying to be a 'somebody' on this website.

Find what you like, and do it to the best of your ability.

Makes sense.

You think depositing makes you into a better person? Trust me, it doesn't. It's always your attitude.

Well, yeah, lol. It commands respect. People will listen to what you have to say and recognize your contributions.

You have a girlfriend, and she even posts on the BBS. You have a car, and it's faster than mine =)

^_^

SeeD. Don't let anything get you down. There are plenty of people here that enjoy your company. If you feel people don't quote you enough, then don't worry about it. I feel the same way, but I know that I'm not changing for anyone, because I like the way I am. You should as well.

I'm sorry if I sound like a morbid bastard. I've been having trouble with my girlfriend, my car keeps breaking down, I stay up for 2 days at a time, and I've been drinking a lot lately. *Sigh* Hopefully, I'll get back into the swing of things soon enough. Thanks for cheering me up a bit though, red.

I'd go for all of the above, except for the Flash/Audio thing, since I suck the major ass at both categories.

Heh, more people showed up after you left believe it or not. We had around 15-17 at one point. It was an interesting, yet fun combination of people.

+++++

Excellent stuff to report myself.

I hit 36,000 b/p earlier today and also passed bila in blams to become a Top 5 Blammer.

Marry new year every one and a happy saturday to you all!

Thanks to SCD, DareDevilGuy, Bahamut7, Eldarion, Mazza, MPA and Kiba and no Kiba, my posts aren't wasted space... except the madness I did with Bonus BUT THAT DOESN'T COUNT, OK?

Congrats to MPA for 36000 b/p pts and passing bila on top5 blamming list.
Good luck at passing Dogma.
Congrats to Snowy_Beast for his nice ranking stats which include a lot of 7s.

Oh okay Ryan, I didn't realize (or shall I type: I temporarily forgot) that it was difficult to pass people in the exp ranking when you are that higg, especially because most of them deposit every day. 2 people in a week is indeed a huge step for you but entering the top50 will be better which will probably in 1-2 years :D

((And yes EK, I know, sarcasm is your friend.)) :o

Congrats to anyone and everyone for anything. And happy soon to be New Year over here. *Is on NG time.* ;)

Me past 3,000 saves now. =D

Let's all eat, drink (not me though )': ), and be merry this fine New Years/New Years Eve. =P

I'm hungover big time. Pounded back 4 litres of cider and spent most of the night playing the PS2 and watching movies. Blah. I'm on my 6th glass of water already (lol).

I was going to e-mail you...I'll try.

The question is did you receive the e-mail I sent on December 17th, the one with the quote by Albert Camus. If not I can send it again Alkador, this gmail is awesome the way it organizes and archives everything. The story you're writing is great so far buddy however I'm partial to raspberry cider as opposed to whiskey.

Happy New Year everyone (less than 5 hours to go).

Still more than 6 hours to go over here. Where do you live anyway, Australia?

When I've been drinking I am in the swing of things SeeD419 ** oh God here come the withdrawal symptoms ** It's okay to get hammered now and then, and it helps keep the blood thin. If the toilet seat keeps hitting you on the back of the head every morning then you could be overdoing it ;-)

I could've made this milestone last night (that's when I made the gif) but New Years Eve will work nicely too.

BANGARANG!!!

9000 b/p's. Whee!!

its taken exactly one week to get to staff sargent so excuse the crappy screeny.
Happy New Year folks

Woo! Finally, I'm an Elite Guard Private!! 1,504 blams/protect! I was couple hours later, and if i only reviewed 20-30 reviews i would've been in top 500 reviewers =[ I feel sad right now, i got school couple days later!! Nooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO!

Congratulations to all who ranked up on this page! Way to go!

Hey, I didn't say whiskey sucked SCD, I just prefer cider. I was partying with three buddies several years ago and we all got hammered on two 40's of Jack Daniels. One of my friends just happened to be an inspector for the S.P.C.A. and they let him use an onsite two bedroom suite for free! Anyway, sometime during the evening I passed out. Big mistake. I woke up the next morning with my head shaved completely bald (they used a razor) and found myself on a cot inside a locked cage.

The bastards stuck me inside the bloody dog kennel.

I'll put that in my mental notes. By the way, what's your favourite type of drink?

Evil incantations by hordes of hell like demons making a man losr his dignity.

If that was me, I would pay them back...slowly. And yes, I'm out too. I just realised that I kept making new e-mails to send to you. I'm just going to make a conversation from now on. I like your e-mail and I guess it makes sense for lots of things as I have always been a 'person in the front' type person.

Congrats on your 14,000 saves. How do you make your own GIFs? Do you have your own computer?

SCD, I don't think Marcus can really tell you what I you told me to tell him via Wi/Ht? as some people would not be happy. I can tell you in a few days though...or he can.

Happy New Year everyone (Australia rules...especially the eastern side, where all the Wi/Ht? members, regular and posters seem to come from).

My resolution: learnt to touch type. Why? I can touch type with my left, but not with my right. So I'm practicing with my right hand so I can get as fast as Gfxcook!

May those who love us love us,
and those who do not love us,
may God turn their hearts,
and if He cannot turn their hearts
may He turn their ankles
that we may know them by their limping.

hell yeh.
im suprised that competition on this site isnt tougher... like, we have 600k members, but once you get to level 3 or something, you're already like 80 thousandth.

If you stop depositing because the gap is too big, it'll only get worse, since the gap will become bigger.

damn straight.
and anyways, i dont know why anyone would simply stop depositing. maybe if you had to vote on 10 submisions... but 5 takes like 2 minutes.

you were forced?! how?
eh, around 1 year ago i just started typing a few words here and there without looking at the screen, and what do you know, now i can touch type.
however, i still find that on occasion when i dont 'have my eye in' (well, literally i mean my 'feel' of the keyboard, but you get what i mean) i can type quicker when i do look at the keyboard..
but tonight im typing pretty fast... not looking at the board at all, its fun :) haha.
anyhoo, ive listed my level ups. later.
