It's been my observation that the majority of the EGB suffer from some sort of insanity, neurosis, psychosis or just have plain behavioral issues.

Obsessive-compulsive over here, how do you do?

I beg to differ - the only thing that means I'm still at NG as opposed to WoW, is that I don't have to pay for NG :P

Most of us could stop coming to Newgrounds if we wanted to, but unfortunately most people who play WoW and other MMOs can't stop playing.

I couldn't stop coming to NG - almost 6 years and I've still got the same passion for it (if not more)

Yeah that would be awesome to have something like that, But im sure you would have to have some like fast connection or something to be able to run that. Something which I sadly don't have.

I would like to join the EGB, for the sake of the Happiness of NewGrounds, our motherland, Sir!

If any requirements are to be met, I'll take my time to fulfill them, to become a great private, Sir!

I hope you meant that, because you have to actually be of a Private B/P rank (2500 B/P), and have a bronze or higher whistle status to join here.

I'm pretty certain this is the hardest club on NG to join, but all it really takes is patience (and a bit of maturity) to do. Good luck getting where you want to be! :)

The NGPD is always looking to gain new recruits that they can help make it to this level. So check in with them and good luck :).

Well I have some news regarding my fanfic. Other than the fact that I haven't written anything else on it since mid-December, and haven't posted anything in my story thread since late February, I've decided that I'll make the sex scene the following part in "Version 2.0" and have an interruption which then heads off to the conflict in the main line.

I think I'll have to make another thread for "Version 2.0." Coop, don't go gettin' all banhammer happy on me here. :P I'll be posting the whole update soon. The update is still in the works, but I assure you, I do have something. I just need to flesh out my thoughts, that's all.

It's good to see some enthusiasm.

You must first have at least 2,500 Blam/Save points, or BP, and a Bronze Whistle or higher to be considered eligible to join the Barracks. However, you should ask the NGPD if you may join their ranks. It'll be good practice plus you get a feel for what being in the Barracks would be like. Good luck!

It's always good to see young and enthusiast people like you, don't feel discouraged just because you don't meet the requirements now. As I-Love-Caitlyn said, you can join the NGPD once you work your way up to security ward.

It would be nice to see what you think of it so far.

Also, how in the hell are you an EGB member when you don't have a bronze whistle!? Or did you have a Silver or higher whistle and did yours get affected during the whistle system hiccup a while back and just never got reset? I'm not trying to be offensive at all. I'm merely surprised, that's all.

Speaking of whistles, you missed a fair amount of abusive reviews I found this afternoon. Had I known you had a normal whistle, I'd have been more than happy to help you.

Yeah it's funny how when your busy or something and ya want free time, But when ya get it it's all boring and uneventful. Bout how it is with me right now and really nobody to hang out with. But always got beer and my 360 lol.

yo everybody how ya been?

I think that I already had a deity whistle when I joined the EGB (or maybe it was gold, I don't remember). And you guessed it, I lost my deity whistle some time ago when many people's whistles went back to normal, and Wade didn't reset it to deity (it's partly my fault, I didn't even contact him about it, though I posted in one thread assuming that he would read it).

Don't worry, I'll eventually get my deity whistle again ;)

And yeah, I'm never on AIM. I log in to MSN much more frequently though.

Why isn't there anyone to hang out with? Is it because your friends don't want to? Because I hate it when that happens :(

But always got beer and my 360 lol.

God bless videogames and alcohol. Unfortunately I'm not old enough to drink :(

Dante-Son-Of-Sparda hello are you really 79 years old? Sorry hello again. Well talking of disorders I have got OCD or Obsessive-compulsive Disorder that is all I want to say about it. But I'm do sometimes think I'm slightly mad LOL just joking. But anyway off topic my b/p been a bit crap of late slow and not very good. It will soon be April 1st I wonder what this years Aprils Fools Day joke will be? The China one last year was so clever.

Yea, y'all may think it was clever, but I assure you it probably gave a lot of people a splitting headache. I was one of them. Sure the main color palette is RGB but seriously, I really don't think the human eyes are supposed to see that much red in one sitting. >_>

Also Phantom, you may want to check your grammar, punctuation, and spelling. I'm not trying to be a
Grammar Nazi or anything but, you do tend to miss some very simple mistakes before you post.

Just a thought, nothing more.

But still, sex and / or erotica is a very grey area, so just be careful to get it right. None of this "wham, bam, thank you ma'am" stuff, unless you're using it as a direct link between [before] and [after] scenes, which works really well with no real descriptions needed.

On the flipside of the coin, Afro_Stud is worse than me - he hates the BBS, despite the mods that he fell out with having been removed and with the way that he constantly B/Ps at the top and he has no time to write responses to his reviews, which is slightly annoying.

Addicted. No...not me...I could go a whole...HOUR... without Newgrounds - maybe even two. I could stop whenever I wanted to. It's just that when I do step away and wander around IRL, I begin to imagine things - like being able to blam slow cars out of traffic, or look for the "whistle" button on bad advertisements in the paper. Sometimes, if I'm away too long, I even think I see the characters in real life. Just yesterday, I swore I saw Steve the Tankman and SaladFingers riding on the back of a garbage truck. They didn't see me, though. They never do....

Oh, Cobra, if we can't have a little fun here and there, when can we? Besides, picking on you is fun - you get very passionate with your answers and point of view, and it makes for some very interesting - and usually entertaining - responses.

It's all in good fun, and if you can't enjoy life, why bother living?

Pardon the double post - I had half-expected someone to chime in by now, but...it's been too quiet.

ANYWAY....

I know it's been a long wait, but I finally finished Chapter 22 - Tapestry Frayed. It has a foreshadow of things to come (that already happened, or should have) and an interesting explanation of society 700 years from now, after many world wars and a period of enlightenment. But we all know that if something looks too good to be true - well, it probably isn't that good after all.

Enjoy - and as a hint, Chapter 23 is going to start twisting back in time again. Think about untangling fishing lines and hooks - how hard could it be?

I didnt know you needed a bronze whistle too! I mean, Ive got one, but Ive been in this crew for at least 3 years and I had no idea lol. I just thought we had to be elite guard or higher.

I think it's a new thing (well, newer than most of the EGB crap anyway). Could be wrong on that though, since it was here before I was, so I have no idea exactly how long it's been here for. <_< >_> <_< >_>

He doesn't want Newgrounds, he should leave. That is my opinion, not that of the owners, affiliates or anything else to do with newgrounds.com

He'll fall eventually, but I'll just carry on climbing at my rate and we'll see how this works out.

In the past, the requirement was to have a clean whistle (Normal or better). But some time ago it changed, and now you need a Bronze whistle to join.

(Ain't I a stinker!)

You're not so much a stinker as you are a giant tease! :P

Oh dear my grammar again! I thought my posts were fine. Not the first time its been brought up. I will be honest I don't understand grammar, I get the basic idea. But it baffles me somewhat. I cant really be perfect at it. But I do my best cant all be great at it. Happy Birthday byteslinger.

What mistakes do I miss by the way?

Happy B-day Byteslinger! And commenting on what phantom is talking about, Good grammar is something that most people don't have and really is not a big problem just can get annoying to some people.

Well Phantom, the most common mistakes you miss are spelling (cant, when it should be can't), ending your sentences with periods. You tend to make run on posts quite often.

To be honest, it sounds rather funny that an American is telling a British gal she might need to work on her grammar and spelling. ROFL!

Overall, for the most part, it's your punctuation that you miss most often, Phantom. Not quite sure how, but it is the punctuation. Just keep an eye on your grammar, punctuation, and spelling and you should be fine.

Yeah really that's all having good grammar is, is just watching where you put things and how to spell everything correctly. But I can be pretty hard for some people to get it down when they have been using a certain kind of grammar for their whole life.
