I'm glad it's gone. I wasn't all that into the crap theme. Spent most of last night on other sites, actually, because I disliked the crappy joke.

Thanks for the advertisement :P

Indeed, I'm hoping that the NG Screenshot Archive will turn out to be a worthwhile project, so if any of you guys have some nice screenshots of NG (especially stuff from before the redesign, for nostalgia's sake), please do post them there.

And I got inspired by that thread and brainstormed a little.

Glad you were inspired by it.

No what i meant was its was playing up early on and was a late April fools day joke. Which it felt like its seems to be ok now so figures cross it stays that way now to do get some more b/p!

Looks like I've found a rule-breaking Flash.

It's the copyrighted music video for Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up".

So my B/P pace has pretty much dropped in the last couple of days... I'm hoping that I'll be able to make it to the Top Gainers for Tuesday's roster - I really don't want to break my 8 in-a-row string! Still, this week is my 'slacking week', so that I can have a little bit of a break before thundering forwards to Supreme Commander. I don't want to be too far behind Joshiwa when he gets there!

Hope all is well.

Meh I am sure you will get on the Top gainer list again so no worries. As for the pace you may catch up some next week because I got a promotion at work --- rank up IRL! --- and I have new hours so I don't know how it will affect my B/P pace. I can't wait to get Supreme Commander, as you already know, and I can't wait for both of us to be ones, then we can talk about the old times and reminisce about ranking up. :P

Thanks to everyone who made a comment on the roster - it's nice to see mine and Stero's efforts to being you a weekly roster aren't going amiss.

You're welcome. Every Tuesday the Barracks gets more active because of it. It's also motivating, I set some goals for myself, such as passing a certain member or getting a certain amount of B/P in a week... it depends.

I'm sure that you will make the top gainers list. You got more 150 B/P since the last roster, and I got only 80. Well, but it's my nature.

I think that, somehow, the time difference between countries affects me in B/P. I have to go to sleep at 11:00, so I don't get very tired the following day. What I'm going to try is to B/P a little before I go to school. That might help me.

And you've already passed half of the needed to get to Supreme Commander, so you're alright.

Sorry about my prolonged absence. You have no clue how busy and mentally/physically tired I've been for the last week. Luckily, I had a field trip today, so I didn't have to use my brain, and I slept on the way there and the way home.

I'm just wondering; how did I go up 1.7 points on my B/P average, when I wasn't even B/Ping for like 4 days?

Well, there are two possibilities, either:

A) I made a mistake this week with the figures, or Stero made one last week.
B) You made enough B/P on the days that you were active in the portal to make the 1.7/day rise.

Compared to the way I have been absent from this thread yours absence looks like a person falling asleep for a few hours at the keyboard. Also as for my blam gun I almost put the thing down completely except when I am depositing EXP hell I might just voted on already passed stuff to stop it completely at one point.

The same can be said for believe it of not My whistle. That is right the one unstoppable flagging Princess (No matter what anyone saids ramagi will always be the flagging queen even though I did past her in whistle points) has gone into cruise with that for several reasons.

1 I don't have to time like I used too otherwise I would post regularly like I used to in this thread or in the Rage thread

2 My favorite thread (the Rage thread) has gone to hell I remember when it was a thing of beauty but now it has become nothing more then a 1 post up thread and it is now a shadow of it's former self. (If you don't believe me take a look at the at the posts from 2004-2006 in that thread and compare them to the ones you see now.

3 Thanks to some idiots out there you have to watch out for stupid little spam alts. I mean come on it is not as hard to get a deity whistle or even a gold whistle as it used to be trust me of all people I would know this (as well as the New X-Naut since he got gold last before the system changed) since it took me 7 Months since I started flagging to get a gold whistle and I had to flag thousands of reviews for several days and hundreds others to get this. I never had encounter a spam alt back when I was flagging in 2005-2007 and back then the whistle system was on a sliding scale. But now that it is easier then it was before little pricks want to try and cheat to get whistle rank it is a disgrace.

4) I don't agree with it myself but it is one I wish that wasn't created. there are limits on what you can flag. Now you can only go back as far as 2005 to flag reviews. While I can't do anything about that one since the Admins made this rule, It leave plenty of holes. I mean not everyone is going to find every abusive review made. If it keep going like this evenually certain abuse that would have been normally deleted if it was back in the old days will be immune to flagging due to the resent flagging rule and many people will be discouraged from flagging them due to the constant mod posting of "Don't post/Flag any reviews that are older then 2005.

With this I am saying this. I am retiring from the EGB (and no this isn't an april fools joke like the last time for those of you who do remember.) For reasons stated above. Have fun Protecting the portal from spam (even though due to stat whore and other people who are too lazy to watch the flash crappy flash is getting protected instead of blammed) as well as flagging to keep those whistle shiny

Smooches ^_^

Talkling about the big push already? You've got over 10k points to pass through yet. I never talked about reaching Supreme Commander seriously until I hit the General or as they were called in the Old Skool, "Salad" ranks.

Not that I'm trying to put you down, but you've got smaller milestones to pass first. Concentrate on them, and the climb to SC won't feel so arduous

Heh, Salad ranks. I wish the General ranks still had some sort of foliage around them like the old ones did - the leaves were what made them that extra bit more special.

I'll be the janitor. Janitors are awesome.

Portal seems reasonably busy tonight. I'm quite pleased that the TANKMEN imitation that passed yesterday (unbelievable) was deleted today. I can't believe people fell for it.

It is. More than usual. But I got about 50-60 B/P today, which is way higher than my usual 30 B/P per day.

Also, is this movie unsuitable? Watch it, but be careful... I flagged it as unsuitable, but was it correct?

The NGPD would be more appropriate for your rank, Police Officer. The minimum rank to join the Barracks is Private (2,500 B/P).

No like you I also Have life getting in my way. A job, Bills to pay, as well as sleep. Before My house a
caught on fire back in 2006 I was ver active in this thread as well as NG but when that happened I had
Lost my First labtop with caused me to be less active in this thread. After that I had to get a job to help pay for the damage thee fire caused to my house. I still work at this job even though th e damage has been repaired which as I stated before eat my time.

Also as for my blam gun I almost put the thing down completely except when I am depositing EXP hell I might just voted on already passed stuff to stop it completely at one point.

Happens to me all the time. I A.) don't have enough time to judge the UJ flash fairly, or B.) have a lot of other shit to do, making depositing exactly what it is; a 30 second job.

I feel the same way but I did decide to keep depositing by voting on movies UJ so even though I am not an EGB anymore I will still be using my power to help the portal.

I am retiring from the EGB

Holy shit. Now I feel like I incited you to retire.

No you didn't this has been coming for a long time now when I was removed off the top B/P list in the EGB due to absence that was the near breaking point it made me realize that I was getting old even though I am not even in my mid 20's yet.

And that is quiter talk. We face the same problems as you with Rage's thread and the portal, but we tough it out. If I didn't believe in doing things honestly, I wouldn't be here; I'd be making alt reviewing accounts right now

I have my reasons for slowing down with my whistle. But when you see yor favorite thread take a turn for the worse in several ways it tends to hit yo right in the heart. I loved the Rage thread even more then I loved this thread (for all those who didn't know that now you do don't hold it against me)
It kept me out of trouble back in the day before I got into this thread here ( The mods back then had itchy fingers when it came to using the destroy button as a result I would always get banned since I couldn't tell the difference been good and spam threads)

Also I never said I stopped flagging I said I slowed down I won't give up flagging no matter how bad it gets that is a part of me as well as this account. I just will flag roguely ( In other words I will flag abusive reviews I find Looking though flash and then post my links in the thread I won't flag anyone else links) because lets face it like a lot of people told me in PM the rage thread isn't as realible as it used to be.

Smooches ^_^

Sorry but in order to join this club you will need the following

1 2500 B/P total (which will make you an Elite guard private)

2 A decent post history (if you are a spammer or made crappy posts it will hurt your chances of getting in)

3 At least a normal whistle (if you have garbage then you will have to go to the Rage's give to you abuse reviews thread and flag until you have a normal whistle)

When you get to the second B/P rank you can go join the NGPD

Have a nice day

Smooches ^_^
