Barracks Roster as of January 1st, 2017:

Happy New Year 2017! I know it's just another day on the calendar, but for a lot of people, it signifies the opportunity to start over - to make this year better than the last. 2016 was a roller coaster for so many reasons, especially for yours truly. Despite its ups and downs, it did end on a positive note, and other than chasing off this cold that's been passed around in my family, things are looking up.

Here, at the barracks, we're starting our 12th year of serving Newgrounds; while many of the original founders, including our beloved EagleRock, have drifted away to deal with real life, we still have a good group, old and new members alike, keeping up the values and traditions of the Barracks. It's like a good baseball team - over the years, some players leave, others join, and your roster changes a little bit every year. Different folks, but always the same goal. I am proud to be part of it, and honored to have all of you as my compatriots.

Speaking of honoring, let's all congratulate DeftonesFan665 on becoming our latest Supreme Commander, and Jackho is now a Master Sargeant! Well done, indeed!
*Salutes*
And there are many more achievements we can celebrate:

Milestones::
Asandir - 9K blams
byteslinger - 115K saves, 130K total B/P, Rank #1
Decky - 27K total B/P
DefTonesFan665 - 30K total B/P
Jackho - 6K saves, 7K total B/P
Jolly - 10K blams

My hope is that we can add more members to our roster this year - maybe invite some of the users who have been steadily posting for us to join, if they qualify? Any ideas on how we can make things better around here? I'm not against change, and as long as we stay true to the ideals of the EGB, we can make adjustments if that will help us succeed.

It's odd, but it's alright. He wanted to to be considered art, but not all art is stationary and static.

His other was too. And, his audio as well. Removed. :)

Thanks and I hope it isn't too late to wish you a Happy New Year!

Thanks for the recognition, commander. A few years ago when I first joined, I didn't think I'd make it to Supreme Commander.

Also, congrats to @Jackho for reaching the Master Sergeant rank.

Woo, Roster! Also (on a slightly belated note) happy new year barracks.

27,000 B/P is starting to get a big old pile.

Congrats to the other milestones this month and especially @DefTonesFan665 for her becoming the newest EGB Sup. Commander. Hopefully, I'll be next.

Kind of suprised that I got into the top 5 gainers with very little gain/effort. I can't complain.

All the best for 2017 fellow EGB members.

It loads for me so the problem is probably on your end. If you're using chrome, that's the issue. Try opening it up in firefox instead (and make sure it's not blocking unity).

Evidently not. We can' fix what's not broken. The game works. It's the user that's broken. You need to pay attention, son. And so far, you've shown that's not your strong point.

unity games are finicky, and sometimes, they take a few moments to start after loading, which can sometimes make them seem broken. This one works for me. I even earned 2 medals I hadn't gotten yet. I'm using Firefox on XP, but your browser and/or OS may affect how it runs. ...or, doesn't run. But yeah, this one does work for me.

Exedor, I think we have to come to terms with the fact that we're never going to get through to this one. Let's just get a couple of pieces of bread then hold them either side of his face instead. Gordon Ramsey makes it look rather fun.

Hello? Anyone here? It's been a long 5 years since I last posted here on Newgrounds. Life just gets in the way. Perhaps in 2017 I can be a bit more useful in protecting the Portal. Though I am admittedly more active on Facebook, but I still do firmly believe that NG is where I started learning how to use "Social Media", if you could even count NG among social media. :\ Anyway, Captain SilentCobra reporting for duty!

P.S.

I still have access to my old whistle guide, should anyone need it. :)

Holy crap! Look what the cat dragged in! Welcome back, stranger! (and, yes, they don't make them much stranger than you!) Good to see you back online. 5 years already? Wow... Guess real life is finally more interesting than this place!

By the way, the reason why you haven't seen me on FB lately is that they closed my account - you no longer can have anonymous accounts, and I am not giving them my real name or any other information. However, I am reconsidering creating another account that, although fictitious, will look like a real person. So, if you anyone out there gets a friend request from Regis Bently, that's me! (which, for those of you who are sharp eyed, is an anagram of byteslinger).

Things have been quiet here - not to many new names recently, but the crew we have work hard to keep the portal clean. They're good folks, and an honor to work with here in the EGB..

All of the high command (Coop, Phantom, Eagle, etc) have been AWOL for years, leaving me to run the place. It's nice to be the leader, but I do miss them. Have gotten a few cameos from Lizzardis , PorkChop and a few others here and there, but as life goes, they have all moved on to real relationships, jobs and even kids.

Anyways, welcome back - you gonna stick around for a while this time?

See ya around the barracks, old friend!

Sure, shoot me a link. I've written an audio flagging guide, myself, linked in my sig. If I keep coming across valid resources, I may make a masterpost.

@byteslinger, lemme know if you manage to get "Regis Bently" online and past FB's kook sensors. Really screwed up how they close anon accs, but I understand why they do it -- pedophiles getting to children, blackmailing people, and just in general using FB for crime. Happy new year, by the way. :)

Well it certainly has been for me. I'll probably make a post about on my profile. I even started a reboot of my old fanfic a while back.

Ah, that explains that then. I was wondering where you disappeared to.

Sad to see Pahntom and Coop have gone AWOL. The other, you know my thoughts on him. Glad to know Lizz and Porkchop still drop by from time to time.

Anyways, welcome back - you gonna stick around for a while this time?

Gonna try.

Best places to find abusive reviews:
1. Turd Of The Week
2. Any submission that has a score of 1.71/5.00 and lower
3. anything in the Emo collection. Reading those reviews, most of them are so damn funny really. They're trying to defend themselves and failing miserably. :P Silly Emos!
4. Any submission from any of the following people:
A) [BB] -- Barney Bunch; Sadly SlashFirestorm was involved with them. :(
B) [DD] -- Worst of the worst. They're the Duck Division. They submitted CP (child porn) in the Art Portal back in June 2009. They are led by Chris Beer. His known names are Creb, Credz, Creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeebz, and any variations thereof. He also hacked Egoraptor and a few other mods as well.
C) [OO] -- Owl Orchard; they're your run-of-the mill trolls
D) [FFF] -- Food Face Force; not much is known about them
E) [TT] -- Trash Troupe; spammers
F) [HH] -- Heap Houlf; recently came into being in the last couple months, not much is known about them either.
G) Retarded-Revolution

W) LordZeebMork -- spammer
X) Zacied(Gaycied) -- his track record speaks for itself.
Y) [KK] -- Kitty Krew; they've come back into being; why? I haven't the slightest.
Z) [FF] -- Faggot Federation; they've been dissolved, but so was the [KK] so, there's a really good possibility they'll come back sometime as well. :\
AA) TomsFrulp -- he's involved with the [KK]
BB) [SS] -- The Star Syndicate; they've been doing those DailyBee submissions. They flooded the portal with spam 6/18/09 in a rush to get the 500,000th submission. Can't say I blame them, but that was just ridiculous.
CC) Genderless-Hooker -- former co-leader of the [DD] and a known fileswapper.
DD) [LL] -- Lock Legion; while in recent submissions, their work is very well done. Just keep vigilant. Most of them are reformed from what I can tell.
EE) [SS] -- Socom Squad; has been incative but it's still a good idea to keep an eye out. They're your basic trolls.
FF) [UU] -- Uzi Union; they've been around since late 2006(Thanks Eagle for the info), more of the basic run-of-the mill trolls.
GG) [CC] -- Clock Crew; reformed spammers. Still doesn't hurt to keep an eye out.
HH) Spamer621 -- he has used this http://www.fallensword.com/?ref=64514 1 in all of his reviews
I know his account has been deleted, but that doesn't mean we can't keep a watch out.
111122223188 -- His submissions are all less than 1.71 in scores. Save for 2 of them. So not a bad idea to comb through them once in a while. Also, it seems that Wade had already deleted his account once before?
II) {LL} -- Luger League; recently came out of the woodwork. Just more of the run of the mill spam.

No, sorry. I honestly don't remember you. Unless you had a name change within the last 5 years. :(

I'll just give a short synopsis of my life since August 2011 up til now and a more in-depth on my personal page at a later point.

Sept 2011- June 2012: Working as a 3rd shift grocery stock clerk
June 2012: Moved to Saddle Brook, NJ to live with my then girlfriend
June 2012 - 12/31/2012: trying to find work

1/1/2013- Mother's Day 2013: working at Whole Foods in Paramus, ultimately got fired over stupid bullshit
Mother's Day 2013- Mid-Sept. 2013: trying to find more work, found out how get a security officer license and started looking into security gigs

Sept 2013 - Dec 2013: worked two jobs, one as a Stocker/Small Pet Car Associate at the PetSmart in Paramus. I was a seasonal employee. The other was at the NA BMW HQ in Northvale, NJ. It was only a temporary job. They only needed someone to guard a door until it was fixed.

Jan 2014 - Oct. 2015: working at another security firm, the office is total bullshit, it needs a major restructuring, had crzy hours, I was working at a Western Union for a short while at the start of 2014, then that went belly-up. Then I was working nights again at another spot in Union, NJ. That went belly-up over some bullshit in late 2014. Proposed to my girlfriend on
10/11/2014. Was going to a Food distribution warehouse much closer to me in March 2015 and was there for a long while until I was moved from there a few months ago. I started going to an old water company HQ building in the summer of 2015 and all the while my then fiancee and I were planning the wedding for 10/24/15. Took some time off in October, I was under the impression I had paid time off. NOPE! They screwed me over on that.

Oct. 2015 - Sept 21, 2016 was going to a place in Pompton Lakes, NJ for a while. Total shitshow for a shift. Fucking sucked, especially in the winter. January 16th and 17th last year when NJ had THE ENTIRE WINTER SEASON IN ONE FUCKING WEEKEND, they tried calling me DURING THE BLIZZARD to go the water company place. I COULD NOT LEAVE IF I WANTED TO. THERE WAS A STATE OF EMERGENCY IN PLACE! THAT MEANS STAY HOME! DO NOT GO ANYWHERE! They offered to pick me up, they would've gotten stuck as well. Thankfully I didn't go. Started going back to school for the Spring Semester last year. Grades are excellent. Started going back to the same place water company over the summer and fall. Had to go to their treatment plant a few times during the early spring and summer though. Not too bad.

10/24/2015: My wife and I got married. :D

SEPTEMBER 201ST, 2016
MSRP: 26,400. Our price: 22,375.
I GOT A NEW CAR! 2016 Dodge Dart GT, Laser Blue
LEATHER INTERIOR
HEATED FRONT SEATS
HEATED WHEEL
8.5" DISPLAY TOUCH SCREEN
SIRIUS XM FOR 1YR
5 YEARS OF TRAFFIC ALERTS
MOON ROOF
2.4L ENGINE
DUAL EXHAUST
Gets great mileage on the highway(though thanks to my job, I'm in my car for 8 hours. Last year, i.e. 2015, I got an earful from my office saying we were using too much gas. So I figured I'm better off using my own gas and not having to hear bullshit from the office. Also, I was back on nights for a little while in the summer of 2015.)

Took two summer courses last year. Had a hard time in the fall semester because I was juggling an internship, and 6 class credits. I had to withdraw from Criminology class because there was no way in hell I was gonna pass that class with a 20 page paper to do WHEN WE WERE ALREADY HALFWAY THROUGH THE SEMESTER. Juggling 9 credits plus a job where I don't have access to internet or a laptop so I can write a 20 page paper!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE! That was too much. So I'll have to take that course again this coming fall.

Spring looks to be a little easier. A Communications class and intro to theology. Should'nt be too hard. Summer, my wife and I are getting out of this tinyass apartment and moving into her parents house, but it's a two family home. It'll be fully renovated too.

So yea, that's been my life since August 2011.

I thought that was you! how long ago was that?

Life, love, and work, it keeps moving forward. Nice to see you got married and hopefully this year will get better for you overall.~

Here's hoping. Especially since I've been looking for a new job to get out of this security gig, cause it's reached it's deadend point. I had a tour of the NJ state ballistics lab...........................................OMG! IT TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD NOT TO START NERDING OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE! SHIT WAS SOOOO FUCKING COOL! That's where I want to end up, but to get there, I need to go through 17 weeks training with the ATF in D.C. Kinda hard to do that when you live in NJ. -_- I'm gonna try and get an internship there over the summer and if it bleeds into the fall, so be it.

@SilentCobra -- good looking guide, if a bit old. I'm glad to hear you're doing well, and congratulations on getting hitched!

Sorry I fucked up your name btw. Cut me some slack though; it's been ... how many years? Hahah. I think ten or so.

Me, I haven't really done much. I graduated HS and college, got a bunch of awards, my dad died, and I'm currently waiting on university.
