HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!

Your reviews check out as ok but if you wish to join you must have 2,500 blam and protect points and a silver whistle, then you have to read the elite guard barracks manifesto. You also seem to have a lot of one liners, try to improve with how your posting overall as well. After you reach all of the required stats you may feel free to try and join up again.
Actually you can have a bronze whistle and still be considered to join. To quote Slash on this:

I'm the Barracks Recruitment Officer, Supreme Commander Slash Firestorm. While I'm glad to see your interest in the Elite Guard Barracks, I must regretfully inform you that you do not meet the admissions requirements.
To be considered for the Elite Guard Barracks, you must be of Private rank or higher (2500+ B/P), and have an advanced whistle (Bronze or higher).
Anyone over the rank of Security Guard (400+ B/P) can apply to the Newgrounds Police Headquarters, where they can work on their B/P'ing, whistling, and other skills until they reach Private.
If you have any questions about Newgrounds, the NGPD/EGB, or anything, feel free to PM me.
He still doesn't meet the B/S ranking requirements though, but he does seem to fit the NGPD's. Why not try them first, and then when his requirements are apt to par he can come here.
Congrats on the level up Idiot-Finder. I rather liked the battle axe to say the least. Now I'm gonna have to adjust to the gold gauntlet. And here I had gotten used to the scythe, ah well.
Also, Kaizer, you need to read our regulations. 2500 B/P and a bronze whistle with a good amount of quality posts. We may not have a set number of posts, but 1-liners are a big issue here at the EGB. Try going to the NGPD and work on your B/P rank and post quality.
Hey Slash, I've just finished reading chapter 3 or arc 2 of Sinners, how the fuck can Gyarados learn fly?! Sure it may be a water/flying type, but it cannot learn fly!! You'd think you would abide some laws of physics. Oy! Gyrados can learn flying type moves, like aerial ace, but not FLY! HE HAS NO WINGS!!! YOU'VE FUCKED THE ENTIRE LAWS OF PHYSICS!!! I know it's a fanfic, but still, science is still science!
Ah, whoops. I really only read through the first few pages, and i guess that wasnt enough. I'll search for that "Newgrounds Police Force" topic that someone suggested.
Thanks guys. :)
Congrats on the level up Idiot-Finder!
Oooh Shiny...

Um, not over here on this side of the pond, Liz. My screens look just fine - even did a refresh / cache reload. Sounds like you need to give the PC a rest - you're tired and need a vacation. Your eyes are playing tricks on you - just like they did on the NG Logs page! :P
Oh, wait - you ARE going on vacation tomorrow! See, just what the doctor ordered!
Have a great trip, BTW...
Sadly, I'm gonna be gone from 5-8 NG tonight, my vacation is over. And I'm working again, the only good thing is I just may be able to procure myself a tablet like the tuesday after the 17th(my birthday, which is a friday and I'm WORKING THAT NIGHT AND ON THE FOURTH!! FUCK!)
I have served only for a couple of days, sir! It would be an honor to me sir if I could join and make my posts here, sir!

I noticed that the numbers disappeared on my computer too. I recently upgraded to Firefox 3.5 so that might be a possible cause for the number of the disappearances. As a matter of fact, I used IE8 to test the site, and the numbers appeared just as they appeared before the upgrade. Possible glitch on FF 3.5.

Please read the requirements; you are currently not eligible to apply for a position. Work on your stats...and grammar, and someday you too will be a proud member of the EGB. :)

Wow that is great! Congratulations to you for getting the highest whistle level possible. I bet you had to flag countless of reviews for that achievement.
Today was a great day for the EGB as two members have upgraded their status. Lizzardis got a deity level whistle and Idiot-Finder leveled up to level 47.
Once again, congratulations and keep up the exemplary work!

I know its not about the whistle points, but this is a great achievement for me!
It is a great achievement. As far as getting the majority of them, you might say that for now, as there will be many more abusive reviews to flag in the future. They are like cockroaches, as soon as you stump on one, ten will pop up.

Original by Kerb:
Love your level Idiot-Finder its looks so cool I would have been level 43 sobs!, and have had the lovely Black Mace you have the mighty Golden Gauntlet. Anyway congrats to Slash for his level up too. I did not notice the glitch. Well I was looking through my old posts from November 2008 and that was when I reached Sergent! fuck I did not know it was that long 8 months.
Congratulations on Idiot-Finder's successful level-up/gold find, hope I can get there someday. Also congrats to Lizzardis, always good to see someone get to Deity (especially remembering the trouble a whole bunch of people had getting out of Garbage). I think I've been at Corporal since December, you believe that shit? That I haven't found time to level-up yet in 2009? I blame 71chan, sucked the NG will right out of me from January until May.
Also, I just revealed the cause of the recent celebrity death string on my userpage, some of y'all might want to check it out.
I'm using Firefox 3.5 since two days ago, and yeah there are no numbers in the portal listings. It's a small glitch and I'm pretty sure the admins will eventually fix it.

Congrats man! Use your new deity wisely :D
Sorry for my absence, but i have not been on newgrounds in a few days so thats why i have not posted...
But on to why i'm making this post... i got a pm from LegendaryRobot with the subject as "Amazing Wade Fulp video" and it linked to this flash and its a guy wagging his penis around... its from the Barney Bunch? Slash what have you been up too :::jokeing:::
****POSSIBLY MALICIOUS****
This flash says you must go and vote on their website in order to view it.

Looking at LegendaryRobot's userpage, I see references to the Robot Rangers as well. Given that SomeNick was review-spamming a few days ago, I'd say he might be up to some of his old tricks again. Of course, that's just one of many possibilities, maybe not even the most likely one, but SomeNick didn't really stick around long enough after the RR thing to prove that he had actually moved on from spamming and mass-reviewing.
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY EVERYONE!!!
Cue Lynyrd Skynyrd's "FREEBIRD"

Well that sucks. Ah well, if you just lost it you're probably still near the border, so the idea would be to do whatever got you your Deity in the first place, but a bit more cautiously.

Well the same thing happened to me when I had gotten my bronze whistle the first time around, then I mis-flagged some reviews and within minutes, boom, right back down to normal. Luckily I was right on the borderline. But these things happen from time to time.

After all that effort to get to Deity? Ughh....
Like everyone else said, you should be on the border so getting it back should not be that much of a problem.
I thought you were going to take a break from flagging and whistling. What happened?
Hey Slash, how do find the energy to write well over 16 thousand words in Sinners Arc 2 and not end up with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? I mean really, I can write 1-3 thousand words if an assignment calls for it, but most of the time it's gonna be around 1 thousand. I'm trying to increase the length of my stories and knowing that the average word is roughly 4-6 characters in length and having 32,768 characters per post, that equates to about 5461.3-8192 words per post.
Well, there is that possibility as well. When we do somethings at an earlier point in time, humans as a whole tend to think that it would never hurt them later on. Well, we're dead fucking wrong. What goes around comes around.

That is rotten you lost your Diety whistle since you just got it. I had mine for almost three years its annoying but I'm sure you will get it back Lizzardis. Looking at Today's Best I noticed that DD has was number 3 but they got deleted http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/50 2086. Thanks got the rotten bastards never give up do they. Well happy 4th of July.
That's because no-one died on the 4th that was overly famous.

I was referring to the recent spate of celebrity death flashes. When was the last time you went to the portal and actually viewed what you voted on.
