Hey, just stopping in to congratulate everyone on 900 pages, and to show I'm still alive. Also, anyone see the Night in Hotlanta flash? I know you know about it, but it's pretty big, so I figured you skipped over it. It's not bad; it was pretty funny, although not as awesome as a final flash should be.

Also, Hadcore porn

I thought that since this was their last one they would go out with a bang, but it's more like a slow trickle. There isn't much stuff they've submitted today, but star day in combination with regular submissions it has been quite busy. Well now that I'm a private I'd ask to join as a full fleged member but I know the whistle thing I'm working on it as hard as I can at the moment, but if you all are willing to accept me now that'd be great too!

You can still be a Guardsman, but true membership requires teh repaired whistle. Just take your time and build it back up---we're not going nowhere, heh.

Alright I figured as much ;P I'm working my ass of tryin to get this damn thing back to normal.

what really pissed me off about this whole spam/review/garbage whistle thing was Bob's attitude. On his profile after he mentioned this new rule (probably the stupidest one ever to curse NG) some one commented about how their whistle went from diety to garbage in one fell swoop. and his response was and i quote "stat whore much?" That is ridiculous. Hmm bob, how do you think he got that whistle? Maybe by helping to keep NG a better place free of abusive reviews and submissions? Ever think of that? Also the higher whistle power you have, the more attention is called to the mods when you flag something. more than someone who has uhhh i don't know A GARBAGE WHISTLE?!?!?! So people who work that hard to upgrade their whistle are trying to help not STAT WHORING.

Whew, that felt good. I think I am starting to develop a reputation here already of being the ranter. :D

I got my new rank! :D

It took me so damn long since I am gone from Thursday night to Sunday night and when I am home, I have class every night and am off doing shit most of the time, if not doing work for class. It sucks but I am trying my best to find time to b/p now. ^.^

Happy 900 pages as well!

Same from me everyone! We've really come a good ways since we began all that time ago!

*Salutes*

Congratulations to our new Master Sergeant FBIpolux, and our new Sgt First Class Lotus. I'm coming close to my next rank, as it happens, which is nice. It takes a while for me to rank up these days.

Anybody who hasn't already, read my post near the top of this page (9th down form the top). Important barracks readings. I might make a thread about it in our private forums, but TBH, even less people look at those than look at this thread.

i am giving myself a promotion sir, what do you think about that!

Urgh, I'm sleepy!!! And it's only 9:37 here, damn. I started studying today for my tests and it's quite tiring, because I also have to read a book for next week. So don't expect me to be that active here, school will take my time for the next couple of weeks.

Finally you made it! But you have to fix that garbage whistle of yours. I started making some lists on the abusive stuff thread again, and I'm pretty sure of what I flag. So if you see them, you know what to do.

Still, congratulations!

How the hell does one acquire 120 B/P in a day?

More congratulations! Promotion day, from what it seems.

Not a good idea, soldier. Self-promotions are not allowed (are they?)

If you want to join the Barracks, you must have at least 2,500 B/P points. You can try joining the NGPD if you want to, but they will check if you can join or not (just like we do, but with different criteria).

So, goodnight sirs and soldiers! Nuts, over and out.

He already asked the NGPD and i do believe his application was denied and didn't he ask to join here a few pages back but there was some complaints about him...

Lol. I remember back in the day when B/P justice was just a bit better, blams were worthy and so were saves, and as Slash can remember, every now and then, sometimes, for the hall-of-famers of us (I got in once) even 140 a normal day...Those were the days. Now...it's possible, but you'd probably have to betray most of your morals to do it with all the spam going through.

Those days were fun, back when I was #20 at B/P and showed no sign of stopping...meh. Life.

Well, I had managed to get into the top 60 B/Pers, but I've just been passed by spam voter Dakka942, so I'm outside the top 60 looking in again. Maybe I can pass Dream-of-Duke once I get back from my week off, but who knows.

Meh sometimes its possible, just this Sunday I managed to get 138 in one day where I had 61 blams and 77 saves. I blamed a ton of spam that day, it was pretty nice.

Yeah I know how you feel.

Sorry guys that I haven't been very active here lately, its just hard to type and I have had to deal with different things since the wreck, its just been a mess. But hopefully in the next week or so I will be able to be more active in the portal and on the BBS.

oh and NEVR, looks like you are going to get me in B/P pace this week, congrats man ;)

We'll see... we'll see. I wouldn't put it past you to pull some crazy ninja shit out of the bag and kick my ass as per usual.

Get back on MSN when you can type - it's totally boring being signed in on my NG MSN account when you're not around.

:::Salutes:::

Tomorrow i on the end of my 10 day probation so hopefully i will pass. i agreea bout blams and stuff.

Sad to hear about Stero,but hopefully he'll still be around

Anyway say hello to your new Lt. General as of not long ago, bout time I went up a badge

Stupid paint jpeg >:(

I hope so too. He said in his PM that he'd drop by this week to do all the resignation shizz, so I guess he'll probably say then whether or not he reckons he'll be around.

Congrats man! I thought it was about time you ranked up. I'm coming close to Brigadier General now, but you still have a decent lead over me, and you're even keeping Joshiwa at bay for the time being.

Speaking of Record officers being around, YOU need to drop by here more often! :P

Hello sirs! Still have a garbage whistle so unfortunately I won't be officially joining you yet. Although on a different note, at the moment there are quite a few high quality submissions and it looks like today was a good one not much spam at all. Several of the submissions that were under judgement recently I voted five on. Yeah they were that good! And as you can seen my aura is dark, which does indeed reflect my voting disposition (althogh the actual numbers of b/p points suggest otherwise).

So in general I hope that there are more and more days like this here at NG "The future place of all quality submissions!"

My Official Resignation Message

As you may have heard from my good mate NEVR, I recently decided that I could no longer create the barracks update. I am now at a point where I no longer have the time to enjoy creating updates for all of you great people in the barracks. For the last 10 weeks of so creating the update has just seemed to be too much like a chore instead of a privilege. I no longer feel that joy when you finish an update and get to see all the great comments people respond with to it.

Ever since I first started creating updates I felt that it really helped the barracks and kept it alive. I would make an update and a day later there would be 2 new pages to read through all commenting on it. It was truly great to see, especially when the barracks started to become fairly inactive.

Nowadays thought it just doesn't feel right. With the limited amount of computer time I have now and the new hobbies I have found on the computer it is hard to enjoy doing both when I have sufficient time to do both (if that makes sense).

I also feel that I don't have the same feeling towards b/ping anymore. With the portal become more and more pathetic and inactive (when I am online anyway) I don't feel that same statwhoreishness that I used to. I still b/p (and will continue to) but it just doesn't feel right for someone who is only managing 8 points a day to be doing the update.

Over the last year of creating the updates for the EGB I have created over 35 updates, added several new features, created the first semi-automated list creator and pimped out the updates look to what you know it as now. I am really happy at what I have achieved in the last year and I am really glad I did take up the challenge of records keeper taking over from Major-punk who sadly cannot isn't with us anymore (RIP). He truly was a great person and was an inspiration to me when I joined the barracks and he was the records keeper.

But enough about me, if it wasn't for all you great people of the EGB I would have never started this journey. It is because of all of you that I wanted to create the update in the first place so THANKYOU!

I will stick around the EGB, I probably won't post much because of time restraints but I will pop in occasionally to say high!

I hereby resign from my role as the Records officer of the EGB and declare NEVR to take over for me from this day forward.

I'd just like to personally thank you for all the rosters you've done, before and after I became involved in updating them. I've had a great deal of satisfaction out of the rosters, and man, you've done an awesome job with them. It's been great working alongside you and I'm definitely going to miss it.

I will stick around the EGB, I probably won't post much because of time restraints but I will pop in occasionally to say high!

That's good to hear. Of course, everyone has different amounts of time where they are able to post and be active - I've just been lucky in that I've been on my gap year, which has left me a fair amount of time to hang out on NG.

I hereby resign from my role as the Records officer of the EGB and declare NEVR to take over for me from this day forward.

I promise to completely rock out the rosters until the day I pass them on to someone else. :)

I'm sorry to see you go. Not because you made some awesome rosters, but because you were an awesome guy. I feel you when you say that you don't have enough time to fully enjoy Newgrounds, let alone make up rosters.

I'm just glad to see that Newgrounds hasn't taken over your life, and that you prefer to have other activities to do. I'll see you around.

Also, The Beatles Band is back. Not sure if you remember these guys, but they seemed to have cleaned up their act.

Yeahhhhh Finally promoted to corporal! and I did it with all blams! I think this my b/p is as even as it will ever get so I am gonna go back to legitimate voting. Oh and congratulations Noss on your promotion. Sigh I think i'll take a break today though so I can work on a speech.

First of all, they must have been s fairly small thing well before my time, because I've never even heard of the Beatles Band (though I have seen that "beatlesband.senseiman.com" link in the past). And second, you might want to take a look at the news post of that TheBeatlesBand account. It claims that the account BEATLESBAND (which looks to be the old Beatles Band account) is an impostor... So it's not the old Beatles Band, whoever they were.

Congratulations to TheNossinator for being the first Guardsman to *officially* graduate to the EGB. I hope to see you making some good progress through the ranks, Private. ;)

Thank you for your hard work i did not know you and its really sad to hear your no longer doing it anymore. I have checked the updates but i never thought about how the list was done, but i appreciate the hard work you have put in. I hope you will still be active here. Dont let the people who submit spam put you off there is plenty of quality on the portal.

He's not in the EGB yet due to his Garbage whistle. He's technically still a Guardsman - at least until he restores his whistle to normal status.

Didn't do that to me. So I don't think it's malicious. Plus, Zeeb just got his account unlocked; he wouldn't be dumb enough to submit a malicious animation right away, would he?

Although he was talking about a Flash timebomb...
