Whistle Alert Do not watch this flash if you do not have a pop-up blocker because you will have millions of pop ups if you don't I don't know if there is no flash because i closed it when my pop-up blocker said i had like 20+ pop-ups saved by FireFox.

Remember, your votes (if it is not 0) could be the reason why the SS craps passed the judgement. I know the EGB policy, but it will be a slap on everyone's face to see their shit passing without doing anything. The SS use mass votings to protect their own craps, and there has to be a solution to teach them that they do not do whatever they want and get whatever they want. Unfortunately, I cannot find another way rather than calling everyone to vote what their craps deserve. Washu, if you can give me a single reasonable excuse for their craps deserve anything better than a 0, I am going to call off the action against their craps.

Whoa, hold on their buddy! The Elite Guard Barracks do not hate or are against any crews! Why do you speak for all of us? You said all of us here hate the SS. That is your personal opinion, not ours as a whole. It seems like you didn't listen to what LittleWashu told you. These kinds of comments are what makes us look bad. Crews will think we are against them and think therefore that we vote 0's on all their submissions, believing we are some mass voting idiots just like them.

mmm...I still think that there is a way to stop the SS's raid. Washu, maybe we should post a thread about voting fairly in the general forum so that more people will realize the imporantace of voting fairly and quit being statwhores.

Young man, you are incorrect on this one. Before you joined the EGB, there used to be a place called EGB war room in the forum segment which Eagle made it clear that we would act AGAINST the Barney Bunch which had the habits of swapping files during their heydays. I am not against any crew. In fact, I love the SS entries WHEN they are serious. But what we cannot bear is crews submitting entries without putting efforts and mass voting on their entries with the purpose of pissing off people. If the SS can quit their recent raid in the portal and take flash as a serious business, we will open our arms and support them.

EagleRock said you should act against the Barney Bunch, but did he say hate them? Dream-of-Duke, no offense, but are you blind? Recall your first sentence on the previous post you just made. It says you hate the SS PASSIONATELY and their craps. Meaning, you hate the crew in general. I don't know why you mix EagleRock's words on saying the Elite Guard Barracks should act against a crew, with your personal opinion towards hating the SS. It actually seems you are contradicting yourself

I cannot help you if you and others have problems understanding me. Like I said on my previous post and what we against and say hate in a strong manner is their ACTIONS of making craps on purpose and mass voting. By consistant doing those things, the SS MAKE THEMSELVES the enemies of NG, no wonder why Wade deleted the account of one of their major members. Just in case you did not see what I said already, I will repeat again. I am fine with the SS and any other crews and love their entries when they put efforts. However, what I hate is their intentional spams and mass votings. If they can stop the current raid against the portal for good, I will treat them with respect. Here is the bottom line: if you want respect, you will need to EARN it.

You honestly think that will work? a community service thread is going to make all those fanboys vote fairly? i don't think so, and really isn't that just giving the SS more attention anyway? Most people will probably use the 0 or 5 system for as long as their on NG. The same how those who vote fairly will probably continue to vote fairly for as long as they are on NG. People arent going to change how they vote just because you tell them to.

It's a good idea but I just don't think that forcing people into B/Ping is going to work, B/Ping has always been individual, and despite the fact you set an easy figure to maintain, some people will struggle with it, we don't want people thinking twice before joining just to see if they can maintain the pace, this club is for all B/Pers, slow, fast. All kinds merge here. So despite your offer, which is actually pretty good, I'm afraid not.

Now...... This is important, DoD, for countless times now you have stepped out of line in the conduct we embrace here in the EGB, we know you only mean for the best but your conduct can no longer pass like that. I would like to Ask all officers to enter here.

Our FAQ and our rules are there for a reason, and no one, not even I, get the privilege of ignoring the rules so bluntly. DoD, you are now charged with violation of official FAQ clause #7.
Your destiny remains at the mercy of the EGB Officers.

I once again remind every one in Officer position and I will also PM you all, to enter the presented link, of course log onto the forum, and read very well.

Mercy? Hahaha...that is so freaking hilarious. People like Socially-Failed DREAM to get a chance to kick me out of here. Yes, I admit that I think and do post in a reckless way sometimes. Yes, I do cross the line more often than anyone else. However, I dare to say that I am a person who care about the place that I have been for over 1 year I dare to say that all my intention has been for the sake of the portal. Compared to those "members who remains inactive after they first posts, I am very involved in the EGB daily discussion. Put it straight, I want to show my influence here and make the EGB the best club ever. If I really do not give a rat ass about EGB, I would never waste my time and enegy posting here. I can choose being a quiet sheep like some people here and make sure that I will never be in trouble. (because I do not post) But for me, I want to be a flame, a flame that can make this place living up Eagle's expection. Being a quiet sheep may keep my membership here. However, sitting out of any discussion and affair is not the way of making the place honorable and enjoyable in my book. Also, I will NOT beg for mercy because even if I have to leave, I will have my head up. If I am voted to stay, I will continue trying my best to contribute everything I can do/think of to make EGB an elite club. If I am forced to leave, it is the people's choice and I will not complain a single word about it. All I can see is that it has been a nice ride with you people since I joined EGB. Best of luck for you all if it is my last night as a member here. I will drop by as a guest to see how you people are doing with my head up!

Yes, they do. But those are not the officers, the officers were nominated by Peter and selected to join. The Officers are and will always be the authority here and they know best. Let me just remind you that it does not matter how good your intentions may be, the way you put them is a burden and liability to the entire club. You've had countless chances and the FAQ contains a huge part about neutrality, and I'm afraid this will have consequences soon. As soon as I get a reply from Peter or at the point 5 Officers PM me back with their answers about this situation as that would make a majority, so far we have 2 votes and soon a third.

I would just like to remind that the EGB is not usually this harsh but we can take measures as we are now and as we did with Bonus Stage when we couldn't bare him longer. And nothing is a free escape, not club duration, or anything else for that matter.

Hmm, let's see...checking the officer list...I don't see you on it. Therefore, before you get the balls to tell my members how they should vote, I'd defect to an Officer to make that decision. If Phantom nor I are around, collaboration of the other officers are next.

Good question. Dealing with inactives is under the jurisdiction of the Barracks Records Officer. As our Records Officer is a much bigger stat-whore than me, I defect to his knowledge on this matter. Major-punk originally set up an inactivity policy based on your post count in the Barracks and whether or not you have an officer. I ask Major-punk to address this issue.

I will say this again. You are NOT a Barracks Officer, and you CANNOT tell others how to vote. And, for the record, even if Phantom said this, I'd be pissed too. You're really pushing my limit this time.

At 1/6/07 12:53 AM, Dream-of-Duke wrote: Washu, do you TRULY think that their craps that can be done by a 3 years old in 5 minutes DESERVE anything else but 0?

She has a complete right as a Barracks member to have her own fucking opinion on a flash. If she finds it worthy of any number, she has all the right to do so. And, last I checked, you're not supposed to say how you vote at all. When was the last time I said how I voted on something? NEVER. Why? Because I don't want to influence others. Let's say someone thought that a flash deserved 3, but I mentioned it deserved a 1. Maybe they would second-guess themselves and re-evaluate the flash with a biased point of view (namely, mine). Then, they start to search for flaws in the flash, as they are trying to justify why I would have voted a 1. Afterwards, they end up voting a 1 themselves after searching. It's a psychological effect that I've studied not only in my psych classes, but my graduate management classes. A manager's bias is so powerful (and yet so subtle) that an otherwise excellent employee can be set up for failure within the first day of his or her employment.

True, this effect will not be as strong here, but it is in the end a version of mass-voting. We are AGAINST mass-voters, and employing any method they use will only make us as bad as them. If we purposely vote 0 against their flash, they basically have won. They have forced us to succumb to their practices, which makes us hypocrites. I am NOT a hypocrite, and I do not need to be labeled one because of certain members who like to stir the waters.

If not, then there is nothing wrong to vote 0 and encourage others voting 0 on them.

Please see above for my explanation on this.

Okaaay. This paragraph is a bastion of equivocalities and contradiction. First off, he's not incorrect. Second, I specificially said not to mention the war room outside if it, especially in this thread. Third, I NEVER said I hated the Barney Bunch, I simply stated we need to find a way to stop them. If you remember, it was not voting 0 on the flash, but rather tracking down what flash they used (before the fileswap) and determine if it was a double-submit. Then, we were able to flag it based on that rule. Nothing wrong, nothing mass-voting, just pure justice.

Lastly, your contradiction is that you have nothing against the SS, yet you tell the Barracks to openly vote 0 on all their flash. What kind of a fucked up mentality is that? This is exactly why I say take every flash as you see it, NOT to develop prejudices against a group. If the Barney Bunch, in the midst of a crappy submit-fest, submit a great flash that deserves to be protected, then it should be protected! SIMPLE AS THAT.

Those of you that know me know it takes a lot to piss me off. However, let me make this clear:

WE ARE NOT FUCKING MASS-VOTERS. I WILL NOT TOLERATE PEOPLE TELLING OTHERS HOW TO VOTE OR EVEN HOW THEY HAVE VOTED. I have had to deal with too much shit from moderater because of people fucking around on this thread. Do you get it, or do I have to write it in crayon?

And DoD, you better fucking straighten your ass up. If you want to stay here so bad, get the fuck in line and quit going against everything I say. I've set up rules around here for a fucking reason. If you have some reason to doubt what I say, you better address it to me now.
