Don't know about official, but I personally use either Newgrounders or NGers depending on how much of a hurry I'm in. I'm sure if you looked through some of Tom's posts he uses a mixture of the two from time to time, so I'd take that as official enough

Ever since I saw the username Newgrundling, I like it as a sort of Norse-reminiscent term.
We're all Newgrundlings!
or Newgroundlings, but grundlings sounds neater.

newgroundlets are the level 1-6 users.

Yeah I've read somewhere on this site, that originally, the term was NGer, but it inevitably spawned racial slurs, so he extended it to "Newgrounders," as the term we all know and love today. And, because of the racial confusion, the actual slur, and the forms of it, have been banned from the system.

I'm guessing that SlntCobra saw the term, "Newgroundian" from Leffler's page, where even he questions its use. Luckily, he's helped out in the proper term by Jakbaronking.

Hmm, I always heard that it was Tom and Wade trying to hide from Al Sharpton. Of course, the source was a spammer who was angry at the Fulps for selling out or something, but since I had heard no other possible explanation, I just kinda thought that was why.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2009-08-29 22:05:17


I have seen on the forums the term you used for us users, I would use Newgrounders but the short version is quicker to put down. But I guess it could be seen as racist. I like Newgrounders the best the one Newgroundians is quirky. I have seen some topics about it. Well I got a PM from Tom Fulp himself about many flashes I reported as stolen, and now they have been removed cool! I sent the PM on Thursday and got it today.

Ah, yes. Like I said, I've forgotten so much over the years. Around 2004, I would have been able to remember the exact name, and probably the release year too.

I have seen it on YouTube, and it looks like the worst game ever made.

Sorry guys for not posting for a long time but I've been extremely busy with university classes...next week are mid-terms.

I recently uploaded my latest game and wondered what the good fellows at the Barrack would think of it.

Here it is:

P.S. Switched back from Linux to my Windows PC because the support for Flash is rudimentary at the Linux side...I was testing Linux and that is another reason for my absence from Newgrounds

We should really inform someone about these phishing attempts. Even if they are stupid, someone may fall for it. Or at least it would be good to make a thread in the General forum.

Don't you worry ismael, General is ALL over this shit. Haha. There's about 3 threads going on right now about him.

Thankfully this is one of those "you kinda deserve it if you're stupid enough to fall for it" things. Minimal threat, and no threat to anyone with even the faintest knowledge of internets.

A newer user i could see this happening to, but the accounts that they want are ours and the mods even high level users. Thoes are the people who are least likely to fall for the poor attempt at stealing your password. The user has been deleted and the problem was solved. If anyone fell for it, the user was a dumbass.

Im a very very raw recruit sir, but I am also very interesting into joining the Elite! I know I may or may not yet qualify to join your elite ranks, if I am not yet experienced enough, please inform me the minimum standards to joining, sir!

2500 b/p points and a minimum of a bronze whistle, then you have to be voted in by the members of the barracks. If you're serious about it, you can go to the Newgrounds Police Department thread once you've reached 400 b/p points. You're at 10 right now, but the points come in pretty quick when you actually try. Best of luck, and hope to see you back here in a couple months. :)

Agreed, if he want's to be back here in a month he would need just over 80 b/p points per day. Now at that i would say someone would just hit 5 on every submisson and thats not what we want to see here. That's what it would take, since there are days where the blam count is very low. Just wishfull thinking here. B/p at your own pace, and get to know the forums better. Post around :::not in the general, they will screw you up::: try the Wi/Ht? get into the conversations. I'm sure there are guys there :::including me::: who would be glad to help you improve.

Still at that it would be 40+ a day. Thats still more then most users can do. I would give him 3-4 months at most to see where he is at.

I totally forgot how long I was in the NGPD, but I know I didn't get to see too many roosters before I ranked out.
I wonder if any of my buddies or the old rooster keeper remember(s).

Nice to see enthusiastic users, but you need to have 2500 B/P, the rank of Private and a bronze whistle or better to join. If you want you can check out the NGPD. To join them, you need to have 400 B/P, the rank of Portal Security. And 50 good posts. Stay out of General, your posts will be shitty one-liners.

Try to hang out in the Wi/Ht forum, other threads in the C&C, and you should do fine.

Salute

Thanks for teh luff Krev. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
