Sure, no problem ;)

It's the same as when people trying to sell a product will always be kind with their customers, whether they are serious or not about buying something. If you enter a store, and see the store clerk being rude with someone in the store: even if you don't completely know what's going on, you will prefer going to another place next time you need to buy something. Or at least I would.

It's the same as when someone comes in and sees a reply like that. They may not know whats going on or whether the person who asked to join was being serious or not, but they will probably feel intimidated.

But of course, we're not trying to sell something here. And yeah, it's a pretty stupid example but it just came to my mind, lol :P

They both think to the same game either way. I was going to link to that one, but the game on that website didn't work for me, so I looked elsewhere.

It makes sense. Anyway, the evidence should be enough for that submission to get deleted.

OOOH NO, YOU GUYS!! GUYS!! It seems a pack of award thieves have slipped through our fingers this time, next time we should scan the portal deeper for more suspicious activity!

Not to derail the topic, but a while back somebody thought that the requirements were a Bronze whistle and a 2500+ B/P rank. Well, you were right. I lurked the EGB forums, and this caught my interest.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2009-08-12 13:17:33


Sorry, but we're not a blam club.

Also, if you haven't already done so, you need 2500+ B/P points, the rank of Private and a Bronze whistle or better.

As far as post quality is concerned, you need more than one liners and can at least be mature enough not to butcher and kill the English language. I mean, I'm all for getting rid of unsuitable/stolen/malicious flashes as the next guy, and trying to stop the spammers, but by no means are we a blam club.

No. Just leave it alone. There is no point in explaining something to someone who isn't going to listen. He is a troll. Just leave him alone and he will go away.

Sorry. I should have realized. Besides, I checked his posts, and he is for sure a troll. Also, Elite Guards, sorry for using your barracks like this.

Stolen:

Anyone noticed that it's taking a lot longer and a lot more views to get stuff through the portal? Is this a measure to make up for the lack of submissions recently or am I crazy? Did something get changed without me noticing?

Yea, I've noticed that as well.

Also, there are other watermarks from ebaumsworld.com, yourdailymedia.com.

Alright, after having seen it start to finish, I'm calling this

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2009-08-12 15:40:32


It's good to see your enthusiasm, but, rules is rules. You need to have 2500 B/P points the rank of Private. A bronze whistle or better and your posts, must be coherent, contribute to the topic at hand, and not a whole shit-load of one-liners.

You must be a mature poster as my fellow Barracks members and myself. We all contribute to the topics at hand in any and all threads in which we have posted. We have helped out various NewGrounders along the way.

Once you have the rank of Portal Security(400 B/P points), however, you can apply at the NGPD and you meet the basic 50 post requirement, however, they're just as picky about post quality. Please, lurk more and do your part to get blams and saves. Then go to the NGPD when you've achieved the rank of Portal Security and worked on your post quality.

Then come back here when you meet our standards.

Good luck.

I lament having replied to you so hastily, and if you'll pay attention to the posts made by my fellow comrades, you'll find that were not just about the stats (though as Ismael and SInt mentioned, there is a minimal statistical requirement). We do background checks when the admission process begins to see if inductees have the right qualities of an EGB member.

Again, I'm sorry if we've come off at the wrong foot.

*Salutes*

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2009-08-12 16:01:26


Thanks for backing me up yet again A-Wahl, you're alright in my book. And yes, we didn't mean to come off on the wrong foot, but the rules are set in stone. This isn't called the Elite Guard Barracks for nothing you know.

To further clarify, since when has any police department had a barracks? Aside from Highway Patrols. The answer is never, at least I'm not sure there are. Krev might be able to clear this little point up for everyone. Now the Barracks part is primarily MILITARISTIC hence the names of the B/P ranks. So please do as some of us have suggested and do your part for NG.

salute.

Cobra, chill.

He was making a Beatle's reference, A bit before your time, but still no reason to insult someone who WAS NOT insulting you.

The reason you see more views now, is after the redesign of the flash pages. Unless you change your settings, it all plays automatically.

Nothing to worry about.

Are you referring to what I was asking about? If so, I'm well aware of the redesign (and have long since changed my setting back to pre-redesign settings), but my questioned concerned the apparent revamping of the judgment rules that's has become noticeable only in the last couple days.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2009-08-12 16:41:07


Woah, did I just step into a flame war? Right as I was browsing this crew, a troll comes in and derails everything. Well, he mostly ignited the fire, but it still caused a domino reaction to happen nonetheless.
I did have the same problem with the madness mod as you two had; the sound wouldn't load worth the crap, and his flash was a dead weight.

KRev, I love ya for the way you set everything out so well and organized <3

Oh, While I was viewing the portal earlier this morning, I stumbled upon this flash:

I think the author renamed it since from this morning, but it's still a good view. The song choice could've been better, but the graphics were outstanding. Opinions?

I know about the Beatles, Krev. If I didn't, would I know how to spell Paul McCartney's name correctly? Also, if McCartney were dead, where's the link to the news story? There's nothing on AOL, nothing on WRAL.com, nothing on CNN.com, nothing anywhere.

I listened to The Beatles on an old radio station called Oldies 100.7, which is now 100.7 The River here in The Triangle in NC. I'm a big fan of The Beatles. So I know about them, and I know that Lennon was assassinated, Ringo is still alive, so is Paul, and Harrison died of Lung Cancer in 01.

That guy reeks of spammer. In fact... *sniff*, might be Levon? Yes, yes, that account smells like it's been yeeked, has the marks of Levon all over it. Maybe it's someone else covering his tracks, but either way, yeeked is yeeked, and spammers are bad at hiding it.
