Don't worry about it.

Eaglerock, sir, I know I am not an official member of the eg, but as long as I keep my posts good, theres no problem with me posting here, is there sir? *salutes*

My policy is, has been, and always will be that anyone with vested interest in the Portal may post here. I am not planning on changing such policy anytime soon, so never feel unwelcome here. As long as you give each post a quick think as to whether it is necessary or if it will contribute to the topic, all will be well. I appreciate your cooperation in the matter.

Heh.

About me having an official position...I think I'm still really too new here to have that much responsibility.

I want to remind you, Staff Sergeant, that respect and ability to serve is not a matter of how long you've been here or how high your rank is. Indeed, when I started the Barracks, I was a Sergeant. You are a respected member of the community here. Indeed, I would have already appointed you a position if one was clear that you would best serve in.

However, your response to Captain Dream_of_Duke's position shows you have the wisdom to realize something I forgot recently. I was petitioning people to be part of positions that they were not even showing credibility for! That is what got me in big trouble earlier and screwed everything up. Now, my new policy is that for anyone to get petitioned for a position, they have to already be serving in such a position. For instance, take Praporshchik Major_punk; he was making Barracks records before he was even the officer! Officer positions are not for appointing just for the sake of appointing, they are for recognizing soldiers' contributions to the Barracks!

Indeed, I'm sure the policy I'm holding now will make the whole Barracks Officer situation even easier to deal with. I am not one to slip-up and not learn from my mistakes, so this is my way of rectifying a once screwed-up situation.

Egalerock how long did it take you to get to your rank Its taken me like 3 months to get a police officer. Also hows your game coming along. I hope its going better than the NGPD flash cause I dont even have people voices yet. (I draged this out so it was more than one line)

Well, it was at least a pertinent question, so don't worry... :-)

Anyway, I really seriously started B/Ping about 2 1/2 months ago...When I first joined NG about 3 years ago, I got about 30 B/P in total over a month. When I came back about 3 months ago, I really tried hard. By the time I made Police Captain, I really got into the swing of getting 100 B/P a day. Since I started that, I haven't missed any day. At the very least I've made it up over the next few days. In fact, I have skipped 6 days worth (or 600 B/P) since Police Captain, and I don't intend to stop anytime soon.

As far as the game, I haven't really had a chance to work on it at all, even idea formulation. Sorry.

Snarfclock, you are making an ngpd flash? I ould offer to do a voice, but I havent got a microphone. Maybe I can borrow someones. Anyway, I have often wanted to make a flash for the ngpd. In fact maybe I will describe it. it sounds corny, but i thought it would be cool to have a flash where a bunch of police officers and elite guards are in a sort of army looking trench. In my mind they were sticks. There would be a battle between them, and bad flash. The bad flash would be represented with certain icon, eg barney, flash icon labeled crappy entrie.swf ect. I guess it needs some more thought, but I still think it would be cool =) If you have ever seen the massacre 2, revenge, toughluck's part is a bit like it, except fighting flash, not germans. I can't beleive I have gone on about this, it must sound pretty stupid to you guys.

yessir, sorry sir. The ngpd thread seems sort of dull, you have to wait some times up to an hour for a response, and members here seems much more dynamic. For Now I will try to refrain from posting unless I have something usefull to say, or someone asks me a question.

Thanks for your reply, Eagle. I've read the rules carefully and I promise that I will not ask to guards to mass vote again. :) It is also so good to see that snarfclock has some decent posts here. I've learnt a lesson recently which is when someone comes in and starts to insult the club, do not bother to reply, or insult back which will only keep the heatness. There are many mods roaming around here, and they will get the issues done. I also advice the fellowing Elite Guard not to bother arguing once someone comes in and insults the club or spams around. We can tell him what the club's purpose is and invite him to join if he qualifies. But if he continues to spam around and insult our members, do not bother to argue. The mods around will get things done. Thanks for taking your time and reading my post. :)

I've also noticed activity in the portal has mushroomed up to about 18 under judgement flashes from like just 5 or 6 under judgement flashes in like less than half an hour. To me this is good, i'l get in some more hunting before i get off Newgrounds later.

Happy hunting!

The portal is indeed on fire. Eagle, you may consider to raise the DEFCON level to 2 for a while. :)

Officer, i am sorry to say that that was not sweet, in fact it was quite pointless and i hope to god you did not expect that to pass. No offense though, but don't submit stuff like that again, make a quality flash that users will enjoy with a preloader.

Sorry for the double-post, but I hope Praporshchik EagleRock gets here A.S.A.P. and i highly recommend to increase DEFCON to level 2, as the portal is getting hot with around 23 under-judgement flashes now (DEFCON guide says level 2 is anywhere between 20-25).

If we did that, we would be no better than the SS and other mass voters. I dont give high marks based on knowing the author, but based on the quality of the submission. Sorry snarf! Keep working at it though!

yeah, that's very good. just because you know the author, doesn't mean you should be willing to put bad animatoins in the portal. always vote fairly and give it what it has earned.

BB fileswap attack! Watch out themoive "death to the ms dog". I saw it last night and it was protected with a high score. I am sure that it has been stolen by BB for passing the judgement. Please blow your whistle before too late!!!!!

I agree with the posts of Captain K-Pingu and Sergeant Grizzley, just because we know the author that shouldn't affect our vote. When whe joined the NGPD and the Elite Guard Barracks we made a promise to protect the portal no matter what the cost and to vote fairly on all the flashes.

Why the hell is the BB fileswap still alive? Guards, check the recent entries list, you will find a moive called "death to the microsoft dog" which passed the judgement already. As I said on the previous page, it was a BB fileswap. The author has no profile and personal website either. Please whistle it before it passes the judgement, thank you!

Thank you for your understanding, sir. It is appreciated. Also, thanks for your comments. I believe keeping our mouths shut and ignoring the perpetrator will just make our lives easier.

Sorry I missed it, sir! However, the Portal seems okay. Please note though that for DEFCON 2 to show up, the Portal must have that many submissions, but it also must be moving at a fast rate. Surely it was, but note that for the future. Again, now it seems to have died down and can be kept at DEFCON 3 for now.

That is indeed an admirable way to work, Police Captain. That is the premise of the Elite Guard. We are impartial in our voting, and plan to keep it that way. Thanks for your excellent remarks, Police Captain!

Did you contact Wade yet about performing whistleblowing on fileswaps, sir? Granted, we can hold a candle by whistleblowing on multiple submissions, but I would still rather having his permission to flag pre-fileswap submissions. He may be against the idea, like I said. It is really his discretion, not ours.

110 points. By the time the current UJ queue is done, I should be SFC!!! ^_^ I'd likely have made it if I hadn't been out tonight. Speaking of, I have a story to tell that I'll put in the General section of our forums, lol.
Well, I'll put a few more hours on the portal so I'm Sergeant First Class by sunrise! Remember that lately some malicious flashes have been coming in during these early morning hours, so stay vigilant! Good hunting, everyone! :salutes:

Forgive the double post, but this:

is a flash recently submitted and fileswapped (it was then called "swanky hotel")! I'll add this name of it to my list. Figures they wouldn't give them the exact same name every time...I'll officially add descriptions of the flashes to my list, to make up for that.

DEFCON Report:

Despite the recent Barney Bunch sumbission that will undoubtedly fileswap (unless successfully flagged), the DEFCON is being reduced from DEFCON 3 to DEFCON 4. The Portal is at a crawl, and even the occasional attack on the Portal will be slow to take and can be dealt with easily.
