Well, I'm happier now that I've got my account halfway back to normal, thank god it isn't much like the what was promised in the April Fools joke. If it was we'd be looking so much like myspace it would be utterly stupid to come here anymore. Well, back to my project that I'm working on, or maybe I'll check out the portal and write several reviews to see if my vote power bumps up any, hehehe... I'm starting to get used to the redesign, but it will take me a little while to completely drink it all in. I noticed that about the icon that you can choose for your profile, not the pic, the icon, doesn't appear by your posts like it says, or atleast I can't see that it does right now.

Why must I never be quoted by more than half of you people?

Well, I'm home and checking out the site. So far, very pretty. Lots of shiny things!

I noticed we can upload a 46X46 in our profiles. It says it'll show up next to our posts? I would imagine that means on the frontpage, eh? ANyway, I tried and it is insisting my GIF is seethru which it is not, so that's annoying.

I also checked out that hovering your mouse over mad icon. haha, very funny.

Oooo... "Clear Form" is in a bad spot.

Yeah well the redesign is good cause got all these new little shiny toys to play with. But it came with alot of glitches and bugs. That mainly gets annoying because they effect your stats currently. But hope all that gets worked out and i can make my climb to Supreme Commander active again. Well best of luck to everybody.

Looks like we'll have to start calling ourselves just "The Barracks", now that they've done away with the whole Elite Guard part of the badge system.

The only other problem I can see is that the stat-listers (myself included) are going to struggle for a little while to get their lists working properly, as all of the links in their forum posts were dead last night :'( Hopefully only a glitch, that will be fixed soon.

You have now been officially quoted by me. :-)

Incidentally, I asked up the sigmakers for a new sig, and I got two! The one by madknt is in my profile already, but I also have one by fahrenheit (below). Help me choose? They're both awesome and I'm not sure which I should use:

Well with all of this Redesign craziness going on, I've found it hard enough to B/P, but I've done my best. And was happy to find that I've entered the top 300 users. So I've finally made it onto one of the "lists" in Wi/Ht?, but it'll probably be a while till the list is sorted, ah well.

And as NG Log is down too, I can't see how much I've made over the past while, so I don't know how well or not I'm doing.

*SALUTES*

I'll be honest with all of you, the redesign is nice but as most of you might have noticed, there is a problem with the flash portal, and that is that UJ submissions never seem to appear as seen, the link doesn't change color and it's harder to vote, or is it just me?

Hey guys, DaRk here. I haven't been to the EGB in a while and I know I went inactive, but I had some personal problems i was taking care of. I was wondering if I would be allowed back into the EGB. If so, maybe some info on how things run around here as of now.

Thanks.

I don't think there will be a problem with letting you in as long as you think you can fit in now. And I don't have anything more to say but even I won't make a one line post.

I've been having the same problem. I was trying to downsize my old profile pic, but it didn't want to let me. I'll need to have a play with the features in there at some point, possibly gaining the help of a taleneted NG artist as I am beyond hopeless- I'll wait for things to settle down first though!

That is all fixed I think. There are a few new levels in the B/P ranks, and the amounts you need are different, so some people will have changed rank. You haven't lost any points though, so just get back to it and you'll be back to where you were in no time!

That is possibly the only thing I am not happy about with this redesign. Supreme Commander just doesn't have the same ring to it without Elite Guard in front of it!

That is going to be a real pain for a while, but hopefully everyone involved will get used to it soon.

Welcome back! I see you meet our new requirements of 2500 points, so I see no problem with you rejoining the Barracks, and evidently your posting was good enough before. I'm gald that whatever personal problems you had seem to be behind you :)

No, its not just you.

I'm having some problems due to the problem your talking about.
But I just try to remember what was the last flash I was viewing and hope that a flash doesnt get blammed or added while I'm watchin a flash :^)

Thanks for the warm welcome back guys.
I'll do my best to better this club and NG as much as possible.

It is not just you. My B/P experience is affected by this. I think they should have the text color change if it was viewed for the day.

My recommendation to help: always keep a Portal page open. Shift + Click (in Firefox) and open all the flash on the page that you need to judge, and judge them tab by tab. When you want to recheck the Portal, note the top two in the list and refresh. Find where the top two are and continue. It'll help big time until they figure something out.

I am leaning to that one myself. While madknt's new minimalist style is nice (especially for his own), I like the whole big background. I'll probably end up taking fahrenheit's one. Thanks for the opinion!

That's why I look for the top two flash. That way if one gets deleted, you're still covered.

SORRY OMGWTFBBQDOUBLEPOST!!!!111oneoneeleven

What happened to my obscenely high (and just as sexy) Voting Power? Its back down to 11 something. Was it just a bug that gave us all the extra VP?

I noticed that as well, I think it was a bug but I'm hoping not. :/ If we do all have more voting power than whats the highest now?

Sorry for the double post but I just realized something, my B/P rank is #666!!

Like anyone ever calls it Elite Guard Supreme Commander any more. Everyone refered to it as EGSC, or EG Supreme Commander at best. NG got wise and dropped the Elite Guard

I think it was glitches and they're on the way to being fixed, according to Bob.

Yeah it was a bug last night. All fixed now, but you should ahve got a change in your voting power, as it's now affected by the number of reviews you have as well.

Good point, but the problem is that the "Elite Guard Barracks" kinda isn't a correct name anymore. At this rate, the official name needs to be implied. If you consider that the "police officer" ranks fall under the implied "Newgrounds Police Department," this would imply the armylike ranks fall under the "Newgrounds Army." I'd prefer a response from Wade or someone to what the armylike ranks fall under now, if they are still the Elite Guard. Oh well.

I wouldn't call that a bug, per se...that was a "feature that performed massive endowment on your VP." Too bad it wasn't intentional and didn't stick around...

Yo! Looks like they fixed this site up a bit more as I am now seeing it correctly from work. I couldn't post or anything just a few hours ago.

Man, this place is beautiful. I can even see my mainpage of rsqviper.newgrounds.com from here now! It would be cool if you guys/gals checked it out. I did a news update that went to frontpage with a nice little update-e-poo of my 2 upcoming projects.

Sure would be nice if the rest of this site wasn't blocked from here. =( Now I actually have to WORK! dammit...

Well, I just found out that Bob is quite an asshat, either that or he forgot to drink his coffee tonight, when I reported some bugs (most were legit and not fixed until he replied) and he got totally pissed over nothing. I feel so misunderstood now... Well, no sense crying over spilt milk, right?

I'll be in the portal or lurking around here to see what's going down and cool off from the serious steamer of a day/week I've had lately.

Well, I think we should stick to the name Elite Guard Barracks... our club could still work correctly that way, and I don't like the idea of changing a club's name.

I do agree with HeavenDuff, but you can make the arguement that change is good. Yet in this case, I don't think changing the name would work out that well. Why change something that has worked for so long. I mean, sure the name Elite Guard is not part of the titles anymore, but the current name for the Barracks could definitely still work.

* Salutes*

Yeah, I still ike Elite Guard. I mean, whether it's our name or not we're still the Elite Guard of the portal.

Yes?

Yes.

Hi everyone!

Its been a while since I have posted (a week in fact). The update has arrived YAH!!!

I'm loving the look if now, although I just realised something last night. I am going to have to completely change the barracks update now. The links will all have to be changed and I will have to individualy go into each profile to find out their stats. GRRRHH! not looking forward to Tuesday!

So what are all your thoughts on the new NG?

I think the submissions in the portal dont stay UJ for very long now, but that just might be me.

Also, I've noticed that there are no new secrets! and the ones like normal some dont even work, the link is stuffed.

Anyway, sorry for not being around lately, I cant seem to get on as often as I want lately.
