I don't believe users will do what you just said. They are just too blind or dumb to notice that by leaving their abusive reviews, the Star Syndicate futher finds the reviews amusing in some way. I have seen the same user leaving reviews for KK crew saying in every review "Please stop this!" Why? Why say this. This only encourages the people behind all this crap to post even more spam so that the reviewers will get more pissed off at the end. It is a never-ending cycle.

I'm starting to get a grasp on my social life, starting Bass lessons/ Tae Kwon Do, Reading, and my school work. Anyway, I promise to return to The Egb as an active member soon. If however, I am not doing much for the Newgrounds community, and If I can't make time, I'll have to resign : ( .......

Don't worry. The Elite Guard Barracks are not leaving anywhere so when you feel or want to become an active member once more, come on back. Good luck with everything you want to do in life! :)

I'm never away, the fact I slept for some meaningless hours is irrelevant. Now, seeing as the SS are making an effort to return, I think we should best counter their mass voters with more drastic votes. By that I mean, show no mercy, for every 1 given they have lots of 5's by assholes of a new variety, so make sure you vote in a measure suitable to get off the portal. and no one download any god damn plugins.

Damn SS assholes, you just know Tom and Wade are gonna have to take action this time around.

Hmm... I Don't know. Use the Newgrounds Log by Casualty and estimate it. That should be much more easier.

By the way, today I finally got a silver whistle. And I am not going to stop once I get a Deity one!

LOL i got silver yesterday.

Ha, interesting. It seems that most of the members of the Elite Guard Barracks have either Deity or gold, so I want to catch up. I used to have a normal whistle, but then I got tired of having it so I started flagging and marking submissions and reviews.

I literally miss the days where I always had my Silver Whistle. I feel so bored having the Diety Whistle. I felt like I didn't earn it. :/

create an Alt.

Creating an alt would be a waste of time in my opinion. Getting my whistle to Silver was fun but I don't feel the need to do it again.Also, I only need one account to be happy.

Well, it depends on how you got it. Did it like miraculously appear before your profile one day when you checked it, or did you mark and flag stuff? Because I remember there being an incident of some kind where users got Detiy Whistle one day without even flagging anything.

If you mean about the day where the Whistle Configuration was fixed, then yes. I got my Diety Whistle in a one day when I checked my profile. I did flag a lot because I wanted to become a Gold like Joe and Tannerite. Also, The Gold Whistle would of looked really good in my profile back then when the whistle system was messed up.

When the Whistle Configuration was taking place, did that system change make it much more easier to acquire different whistle levels much easier? Because I remember that before the configuration was done, it was somewhat impossible to have a Deity whislte.

#1: That is correct. It is way too easy to get your Whistle levels to higher extents. For example, if I was flagging for a good week non-stop, I could of gotten my Diety Whistle.
#2: That is correct again. It was impossible to get a Gold and literally impossible to get a Diety.

Seamonky, did you like forget the "e" when you typed your name back in 2005? And don't start with that "Happyfeet" crap.

Anyway, I noticed that you are approximately three days before becoming level 13. Wow, I guess this new year has been great for you. You became a Supreme Commander (I know that was last year, but still...) and now you are going to be holding a baseball bat. And here you are complaining about your Deity Whistle...... =)

Hahaha! No, this was my original name when I first joined Newgrounds. No, I didn't forget the "e". The ending e is worthless in my name. :/

I am not really complaining about my Diety Whistle. I'm just stating facts about how I feel about it. Yeah, I know. EGSC, Diety, and the upcoming Level 13 feels great. The new year is going smoothly so far. What about you?

At 1/4/07 03:24 PM, Seamonky wrote: The new year is going smoothly so far. What about you?

Me? Well, I obtained a silver whistle just today, I became an Elite Guard Sergeant Major, some two days ago I believe and I will reach level 12 in 26 days from now. Not as great as your stats, but I'm coming along. :)

#2: Congrats on the Silver Whistle and becoming an Elite Guard Sergeant Major.

Thanks!

That's one step closer to EGSC.

Huh? Tell me you're kidding. I am in no way closer to becoming an EGSC from the rank I am right now. But thanks for the encouraging words!

#3: My stats are ok. There not the best.

Yes I agree. You still have a lot of work ahead of you if you want to reach the top 50's list. So get crackin'!

Speaking of stats, I'm just pushing on in the top 50 and am 20 days away from level 14, assuming the new layout will take some time more, I'll have fun with it.

I'm not joking. You really are ONE step closer to EGSC.

Will do. Also, when the new layout comes sometime this year, I will be on Newgrounds more often. I have been getting much lazyer these past couple of weeks. :(

You're #29 in B/P which is awesome. I believe the new layout will be here so you might not get your level 14 like you wanted. :/

That's if the layout gets delayed even further.

Yes I noticed. You passed Bahumut the other day, didn't you? Have fun with with the candy cane, pole, tube thingy! (I'm assuming this description was that corresponding to Level 14)

If by candy cane, pole, tube thingy, you mean the blood dripping water pipe, then yes. And I did pass Bahamut, and I expect to do the same to a bunch of others too, main target being, ADT
( only one to have ever passed over me in B/P rankings ).

I still remember when I was one of the three gold whistlers months ago. Now that everyone is starting to get gold/deity, it makes them both less deserved, and makes me feel less special.

Dream-of-Duke thank you for stating the obvious. Most of the SS member do this stuff just to piss off the masses. Sadly even if the regulars don't review, The NG Noobs will not only leave abusive reviews, but give the SS what it wants in the process. This will only hurt the NG noobs not the SS. Since the whistle system has been changed those review get flagged faster and even deleted before the movie even passes or get blammed and said user might even get review banned.

It was the same thing with the BB back in the day when they used to make their low quality movies ( I don't call them crappy because the movies themselves were funny to me) I even spoke with a BB member in the past and he told me the exact reason why they would do it and it was for attention. They even told me if people didn't give them attention they would quit and go elsewhere.

But on a side note though I think some NG users take the Internet way too seriously in some cases. If the NG Newbie's looked at the original flashes of NG, they would see that some of the stuff that is low quality is actually just going back to NG roots but this isn't with all cases though.

Well later for now people I don't know when I will get back online though >_<

Smooches ^_^
