112 points today! Not bad at all considering I slept until 2 in the afternoon, lol.
Not bad at all. I am current at 120 B/P, which has shifted my schedule a day ahead yet again. Just in time for the new rank, too! I was supposed to make Praporshchik tomorrow, but I was lucky enought to catch it today.

Captain Dream_of_Duke, you've gone a long way to convincing me you'd be good for it. I'm glad to see everyone being nice to each other again. ^_^
His efforts were the cause for my impulsive behavior before. Again, I hope my respect hasn't gotten down, as I try to do everything for the best of the Barracks.

Well, today was decent on the portal, although it did slow down a few times. Also there was that BB fileswap...hopefully that was just a single occurance and they're not going to go back to the 2-3 fileswaps a day thing. I was hoping they were finally gone...
I'll head back to the portal for a few more hours (thankfully it seems that those...anti-phallic flashes stopped and I don't have to worry about them, lol)...good hunting everyone! :salutes:
I think we're in the clear, but the Portal is rather active for the time, which is causing me to delay the shift back down to DEFCON 4. We'll see what happens, Staff Sergeant!

Double posts seem to be well-warranted here. Indeed, I am one of the many that does it as well...

Thanks for the kind words, Staff Sergeant! And at the rate you're going, I'm sure you'll make Praporshchik in a week... :-)

I did update it, Police Captain. Perhaps you need to clear the cache of your browser to see it. (Control + F5).

Congratulations on the Promotion, youve gone far since we first met.
As have you!

I appreciate that, sir. My intentions are only for the best.

If there are enough people posting single post saying that they want to join and never returns, the overall quality of the barracks will take a big dive in the ocean since the place will be floated with sub-par posts.
True. However, if we take time to address them like we have (especially Praporshchik Major_punk), I think we will be perfectly fine. We also have to make sure that we post enough here and not migrate fully to the other forums. Otherwise, like you said, sir, we will have a bunch of "requesting to join the Barracks" posts.

I agree with Major_punk's inactive police which is very helpful to the barracks. In addition, I believe that there is no need to maintain people who never post after they say that they want to join. The spaces should be for those active Elite Guards and NG polices who work hard to get enough points (1500) to quality to our barracks.
That is indeed why Praporshchik is our Barracks Records Officer. I fully trust his recent policies on what is considered inactivity and stand by him all the way on it.

Thankies


Frankly, anything I would try to do to add to our inactivity policies would only get in the way of Praporshchik Major_punk's work. If you want my opinion, my opinion is to follow his policies. He is a self-proclaimed stat-whore and an excellent judge of inactive members.
)

; He also has courtesy enough to keep an inactive list behind the scenes to reactivate members that wish to return. I'm sure we'll be fine, Captain, sir!

Well since theres been so much talk about it, Im gonna post it.
I have on record everyone who has ever posted in this topic. (unless a mod deleted a post that I havnt yet recorded)... on the right side it shows how many posts they made. Also I have when their last post is, but im gonna try to keep this simple.

If the moive turns out to be a BB fileswap, I suggest Eagle to raise the DEFCON level to 2, even 1.
I don't think that raising DEFCON to level 1 is reasonable if its just one flash. 2 maybe. More likely 3, but thats just my opinion

As do I, Police Captain. Indeed, there is an upswing of inappropriate flash on the Portal right now. However, I am considering keeping the DEFCON at DEFCON 3 overnight rather than reducing it to DEFCON 4, which would be a normal level at this hour.

I wouldn't worry, sir. Indeed, that list is really for your own reference and is not really needed here. I'm sure we all trust your judgement in inactivity and will help keep our roster active and up-to-date.

That flash DOES appear to be file-swapped now, and it's another malicious one that spawns numerous pop-up windows (I closed it really fast before it could overwhelm my computer). These ones are, in my opinion, much greater threats than the merely annoying typical cartoon porn ones...I haven't seen malicious flash like this since I first came to Newgrounds...so everyone, keep an eye peeled, and I HIGHLY recommend you don't open the flash...the title of the flash lets you know you wouldn't want to, anyway...
Well, now I'm paranoid, so I'll be on a little longer. Good hunting everyone! :salutes:

DEFCON Update:

In light of the more drastic fileswaps seen on the Portal recently, the DEFCON will not be dropped for the night but will rather remain at DEFCON 3 until morning. Please be advised that the Portal could be under a serious attack.

Thanks for the report, Staff Sergeant. Indeed, I shall not venture near that entrant.

Well, I am off to the bunks now. It is 0300 hours, and I am exhausted. However, I will be on the Portal tomorrow morning!

I tried to flag it for stealing when it was still under judgement. However, I did not get enough support as it passed the judgement anyway. As a result, it turned to be a BB crap. I am sorry that I did not report it in time. If I reported it 5 minutes earlier instead of shaving my beard, it could be flagged already. :( As an Elite Guard Captain, I feel sorry that I did not protect the portal well this time. :( Anyway, does anyone has a clue how those BB users steal other authors' flashes which passed the judgement already? Any clues?

I remember a Wi/Ht question by a person who later turned out to be BB. He had wanted to know how you could get the .swf file from a blammed flash. I cant remember what the answer was. I'm thinking they email the .swf's to each other. They may even do their work from public computers (some libraries have public access computers, or schools etc). Using public computers, they wont really be affected by IP bans, as it wont be their computer anyhow.

They probably have set tasks too, like person (a) makes a good flash. person (b) makes the swap flash. person (c) submits it.

Thats just my thoughts. I dont know if its right.

Well, I live in the UK. When I get online fiorst thing in the office, most of the US is still asleep.

When I log on again at lunchtime, you're all just beginning to wake up

I do log on at 7-8pm, which produces quite a bit of BPing, so long as I hang around MSN messenger, otherwise it's online gaming, which stops me from viewing the portal.

Then at about 11pm, I log off for the evening and hit the sack. I do always go and check the portal, so that we can protect it from attack.

And K-pingu, I've noticed according to your own calculations have a little under 50 points a day... Don't worry, once you make Elite guard will glues your self to the chair.

I've been hearing about these "pop-up spawning" flashes lately. Usually, I'm quite upset that I have three or four pop up blockers because they interfere with basically everything I do, but I tested them with the flash that Second Lieutenant Ghost_Phantom linked to, and I must say that for once, I'm glad I had a pop up blocker. :D

I think it's something that can only be dealt with via the lesser known tradition. Email Wade (My clone father) and take it from there.

Nah... It won't really cost any money... just continually piss me off. It sucks but won't cost me because it won't ruin the computer and I'm too broke to pay for these minor repairs...

Don't be silly, the more emails he gets from different sources, the more likely he is to do something about it. Especially if they are credable, which yours certainly is
