I have a little notepad document on my computer that I use to keep track of daily starts, ends, and gains. I use a calculator so I don't make any mistakes, lol. Simple but effective. :salute:

Egads, EagleRock has started off a new trend.
*Staff Sergeant Salute*
Anyways, this is what is used to protect the computer I use (note I didn't say it's mine, since it's really the family comp, but meh. :P):

- McAfee VirusScan

- McAfee Personal Firewall Plus

- McAfee Privacy Service.

- McAfee Security Center.

- SBC Yahoo! AntiSpy

- SBC Yahoo, Comcast, and Google toolbar pop up blockers.

- Comcast Spyware Scan.

And I use an Internet Explorer browser with Comcast High Speed Internet.
Not sure if that's well protected or not, personally, but I know no pop up gets by unless I let it. :P

I had McAfee once, not bad at all but I had a trial since it cannot be bought here any way. Though Zone Labs is just as good for me and I managed to get a full version.

Soldiers, my latest Intel report has been posted. I ask that you please read it over and post any comments.

*Gener- (oh, sorry) Corporal Salute*

I read through your report sir, it was very detailed and I can tell you put alot of time gathering the information. I probably am being too soon in saying anything, as I only joined yesterday, but it there anything else I can do? I mean yes, I b/p all day, but is there any other job I can do. It can be something no one else wants to do. If there isn't, then no problem, it would probably be given to a high level officer anyways.

Good news, I was wondering where you were.

I figured something was going on because your post history just stopped, I thought you might have been banned. : )

i never got banned here. i never did anything to be banned.

This is just my opinion from small posts [...]
Thats just what I think, so I know parts of my theory will be false.

Wheres nimmer I want his opinion on that.

honestly, i really don't know. i never saw a post that gave me any numbers. What i heard was that the whistle-scale was some sort of gliding scale (so the number of flags needed depends of the top-whistler).

Excellent to see your devotion, Private. I'm not sure if there are any official openings yet, however until there are you can be my advisor. If there is any info u have about possible Portal threats, just PM me the info and I will add it to my report. Of course, you will be credited. This will help me out as I can't scan every part of the Internet at once. Talk to EagleRock about any official openings, however I would be glad to have you backing me uo in terms of Intel Ops :)

*Salutes*

Excuse me sir for my absence I seen to have missed alot. Seems like getting b/p points is not the only thing I must obtain but miscellaneous stats from other locations. The B/P for me has bene going slowly but so far im less than 30 from the sergeant position which is nice but sad as then starts the 1500 per rank. (sigh) oh well thats part of my life. The other is wondering what went wrong.

Don't worry, it's only 1000 point gaps after Sergeant. 1500 doesn't start until gold ranks, lol. It's not as bad as it sounds. :salute:

If it is at all possible, I would like to help out. Gathering from the name, it is getting information on portal threats, but is there more detail on that? You can email me with any thing that i need to know, and thank you for letting me help out.

Hmm...well, my job is to gether intelligence on any possible Portal threats (and BBS threats, but they come second) and then file reports on them.

Should you be assigned to helping me out, your job would be relativelty the same as mine. The only difference would be that instead of filing a report to the War Room, you would file a report to me VIA Private Messaging.

Using the combined info, I would then compile a report to be placed on our forums. Any info u gave would credited appropriately.

Hopefully this gave a little more deatail.

Easy whistle points here http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/292343 this was blammed yesterday and the guy submitted it again that is all

Mitsubishi sir, this doesn't sound like a big threat or anything, more like an actual day, but april 30th has been deemed "pico day".

The instructions are to submit something with pico in it, and to be creative with it.

Don't get me wrong, this was created by a mod and approved by tom, but I thought you guys might want to know.

*salutes*

Thanks for the info, Private. Yes, Pico day IS a sanctioned event so it by itself is no threat. However. as Clock Day teaches us every year there are some indiots that try to use the mass amount of protecting to get their shit onto Newgrounds.

Thanks again,
*Salutes*

that sounds interesting it sounds like an interesting day were people will spam abusive reviews as well I will be ready that day. unfortunetly we can't do anything about clock day that day you have np choice but to vote to protect because it is impossible to blam on that day due to mass voting clocks :( oh well

End of day report:

A total of 95 b/p. 2 reviews, 8 responses (NO WAI!), 3 posts.

But more importantly....

...

What about more Blam/Protect ranks?

3 more B/P ranks. With all the talk of more levels there has never been an idea of more ranks. Until now.

Everyone knows that Elite Guard Supreme Commander (EGSC) is that last and final b/p rank which requires 30,000 points. That was created years ago, and to me it's out of date.
Theres now almost 50 EGSC and that number is inevitabely going to grow. I'm asking the Barracks first because we are all active b/pers.

What do you guys think of this:

Rank|B/P required|Bonus %

EGSC , 30,000 , 60%
XXXX , 35,000 , 65%
XXXX , 40,000 , 70%
XXXX , 50,000 , 75%

*XXXX - represents the initials of the new ranks.
- Maximum voting power is now 17.50
- The number 50 is an NG icon (top 50 exp/blams lists) 50,000 is fitting.

Heres the original thread where the discussion first began.

What do you guys think of this:

rank stuff

I think that's a great idea. Gives people more to shoot for...plus I think rank should play a bigger part in your VP than it does now. I really, reeeeeally hope the admins consider tinkering with stuff like that soon...

even the 4500 gap for EGSC is not as bad as it sounds.

Well put it this way, by the time I get to EGSC theres gonna be like over 100 of them. To me this has to be done eventually.

It's incredibely easy to get deep into the b/p rankings compared to exp. Hell EagleRock got into the top 300 in 2 months. Compare that more then 2 years to get into the top 300 exp.

NG members with the last rank will grow very quickly to me it seems theres one new member a month. The EGSC rank is losing it's importance. It's not such a big deal anymore, it's still important... just not as rare.

By almost doubling the requirement, as of now there would only of been 9 members with the final rank. Compare that to the current 46.

Just throwing the idea out there hoping for comments.

I think they should make it to where we can get more than 10 exp per day. Maybe they could make to where you can put like two people who you showed this site and they made accounts and every time they get 10 exp you would get 1 exp. Now you might think two people only that's not a big deal but then your two people have two people as well and when they get 100 exp your two people would get 10 exp each and you would get 2 exp and it would grow like that. Well new ranks would be nice as well as updating the pic of the current levels and ranks so they look better.

Well that is just my opining on the matter.
*Salute*

now that RS (i dont know how to spell his name ='( theres never any new post in the NGPD. I feel loney there. Sometimes I have to wait for hours for a reply. But I will have to get use to it

Day's end report:
Prepared to be amazed, as I amazed myself big time. 186 points!!! I knew today was going great for me, but I didn't realize how great until I was updating my records and saw that number on my calculator (causing me to nearly drop it). Awesome. This ties Christmas Eve for my biggest point gain ever. ^_^
Time to go on the portal for another few hours. Tomorrow, a Monday, will likely not have the same vitality as today, but I still have a quota to maintain! Good hunting, everyone! :salute:

Day's End Report:
Today was a very good day, 111 b/p points! It's been a while since i've broke double digits. For some reason though when i put my experience points in for the day my experience stayed the same. It didn't go up at all. It confusing. Hopefully some can eventually shed some light on that but intil then happy hunting everyone. :salute:

my end of day report

B/P 55 points

flags 700 :(

Hm, maybe it'll update the EXP later in the day. I hope so, because that would suck otherwise...but at least you got a very good b/p haul today! Good work, corporal! :salute:

Nice b/p haul...don't worry, Captain, I doubt anyone else got more than 700 flags today. And besides, the new illwillpress movie is sure to generate a good number of abusive reviews for you to flag over the next few days! ^_^ :salute:

Would you like to find a great review? Well don't look here for one. This is a great simple whistle point... I don't whistle but when that review popped up I laughed...
