Frankly I don't care at all about my grades unless they can help me get a job or something. I just feel that the education system could be so much better and it's a waste.. i spend like half of my time at school sleeping, or at least trying to do so, and i don't say that because it's too easy, but because it takes them so much time to teach one single thing. Also i think that 30+ students in one class is too much if they are at all concerned about their education.

User Mini Pictures
I noticed that the user mini-pictures are being used a lot, now in the reviews as well. Do you think it would be a good idea to somehow implement those little mini pictures into forum posts, to give the posts a clearer connection to the person who posted them?

EVERYTHING I HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE WORLD OF FLASH HAS CHANGED. BLACK IS WHITE. UP IS DOWN. LUIS IS NOT A MEXICAN AND JAMROCK IS A PRO. DEAR GOD, THIS IS SO WRONG!

I certainly do. There's actually lots of stuff that's very common on other forums that I miss here, personal user pictures is definitely one of them.

Gorgeous visuals. Corny, but gorgeous.

userpics

I like that they arent in posts.. the level system on newgrounds is sort of its unique shtick.. for some people its the whole point of coming to newgrounds. I think replacing that with the user pic would just make it like any other forum. I think the level icon is important to what makes newgrounds unique.

It was pretty good.. i didnt watch it all cause the music was too lovey dovey.. and it wwas very anime. Filter use kind of hindered its performance in the first part...

It's easy for you - you've not got an icon that's ten-a-penny for regular users :P Plus you get that awesome mod aura. I do agree that NG shouldn't be spammed up with level icons, though. I'm not overly fond of the new review look.

I think it'd be best if the top review or so was one of the ones with the closest score to your average. Right now I'm stuck with a top review of '1 - sucks!!!' on some of my stuff >.<

holy shit score graphics

Thats fucking humongous... i think a pixel font that large looks ugly. I woulda used arial or tekeku (or whatever its called)... the review thing along the footer is pretty good tho.

I completely agree with you. I love having numchucks next to my name. They're better than anything I'll draw, not to mention it usually sorts our those who know stuff from those who don't.

JUST WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY! LEVELS DONT MEAN ANYTHING.

I do like the minicons on the reviews though.. in that scenario it makes sense.. cause the level system has no impact on your review.. yet in reviews its sort of nice to see a users 'signature' on the review .. u dunno if i speak for everyone but im always like AMAGAD *insert name* reviewed my movie... i dunno i think in the reviews its kool.. it may encourage new users to actually make a mini pic... i hate seein that gray tankmen pic.

Maybe you should make better Flash submissions...

JAYYY KAYYY <3 <3 <3

Userminipicthingys
I enjoy seeing them in the new review. Doesn't make each person seem the same no more.
But in the forums? Hmm.... maybe but I don't think it would be the best idea. Waste of space. Besides the lvl icons are great for identifying a user. Higher the level the cooler the dude.... unless he's a mexican or somethin. <3

New reviews layout thingies
More reviews showing is nice. Gets ya more incite into the flash. The font of the scores sort of works. Give it more of an ol'school gaming theme which I like. NG-Techno-ish junk is classic. :3
Though I'm still waiting on the custume userpage layout and/or being able to show which flash of yours you'd like to showcase on it instead of just your 4 recent ones.

Ending sysmister and my jealousy..
Ouy.... I got like 46%, 40%, 52%, 48%, and 88% in my classes right now and got 2 weeks to get all my "I" work complete. I ain't doing as bad as I usually am but it still annoys me how I got to work to do and not much free time for flash.
Anyway one thing I'd like to admit because I'm bored and in a sharring emotions to random dudes mood, is that I get jealouse of some of the guys I see on NG. I read their blog and they'll be multi-award winning authors with like 2-5 submissions only(some not even that good in my opinion) and they'll have their huge ass fanbase, some good, some just overatted, and anyway the thing is I'll be readin' their blog or somethin' and they'll be going on about how their in this college doing this and got this for this and I'll just be sayin' to myself "Yeah, yeah... your bloody wonderful ain't ya? Smart and successful." I guess it annoys me cause I'll never see college or anything and sometimes I feel like no one acknowledges me (but they do of course ^^ ). Anyway ya... just rambling right now. Sorry - I tend to do that when I'm normal. :P

Dead babies.
I myself love dead baby jokes as much as the next guy yet I don't laugh when I find out poeple I know had miscarriages or lost a baby somehow. Yet when I see pics of dead babies and junk I lmfao.... am I a bad person? :/

Also: I'm single again. Roar ;P

They could perhaps co-exist. Like the usericon on the left side of the name of the person who posts. I certainly don't think the level icons should be completely removed

But that's where I can best express my emotions...
Like right now I.. uh.. I feel... like yawning or yelling or something... Those are my true emotions and they are vital to Newgrounds! >=[

Oh youre right. i forgot all about that.

Yeah i agree with you... perfect opportunity for me to express how fucking enraged i am.

i fucking HATE when my roomates eat my shit... i dont mind people having a taste of the things i buy but i fucking found an almost empty bottle of ice tea i bought last night that i didnt even get a chance to taste. I'm going to raise hell when he gets home i swear to god... my wrath will be felt.

Also dont get in my way ill ban you. I'm so pissed.

Fridge Etiquette
I am more against the whole "I'll eat all your food except one little crumb and then I'll leave the box in the fridge" sort of thing, or when someone leaves one cracker in the box and puts the box back.

It's insult to injury. They just wanna be able to say "I didn't eat the whole thing". Around my place, I have a policy that people can yank my shit if they're out, but they've gotta replace it as soon as possible. There's a convenience store at every damn intersection in Toronto - ain't no excuse.

When you first started reappearing, it seemed like you were just passing through, but it now it looks like you're taking up residence again. Good to have one of the original loungers still around

Re: Fridge Etiquette

My roommates and I had an agreement that if it isn't labeled it's up for grabs, but if you kill the none-labeled stuff you have to replace it. I'm a vegetarian and my roommates don't like a lot of what I eat so it's pretty easy for me.

Also 2000 posts :)

New Review
I haven't been on in a while.. so this is new.. personally I like it much more than the old reviews. Now with the icon the review seems much more 'individual'. Like before when i read a review (for my submissions) I just kinda though "ok some guy I dun know, k, review etc... Now I actually can associate a review with an icon so it seems much more 'personal'.. like it means more.. like that person was kinda enough to give a review for my submissions :D (even if it was a "I HATE JOO NUB" review)

Level Icons

I noticed you guys mentioning the level icons before and I just wanted to make a quick comment about it. I feel like the level is one of the key determining factors of status on the BBS for Newgrounds. I mean, like usually you'd expect if the Posts are greater, then the Level should be greater too. I just have so much trouble because I feel as if some guy whose level 40 would have been here longer than most level 9s. But then if you look at their posts, there are like level 30s with about 40 posts and many more 9s have 2000+ posts. It's very weird how it works.

Fridge

I also hate it when I'm thinking that there's one thing in the fridge that I'd want to eat, and then I get there and someone's like _______ finished it. Well fuck that! I wanted to eat it!

Wrestling

Anyone else wrestle? I got lucky and for the second time this week had to wrestle the #1 in the state again. God damnit that pisses me off. I got through 5 out of 6 minutes though, so that was my accomplishment. Along with that, this kid whose 12-0 or something lost his first match 'cause the douchebag ref thought that just since those two seconds were lost it didn't matter....he needed one second left to count the extra winning points...STUPID REFS! They're all 80+ yet they think their eyesight is a 20 year olds.

It wasn't my intention, but I have gotten sucked back into this place. I don't know for sure what it was but something rekindled my fascination with animation and Flash lately and I seem to be spending more and more time back here.

Plus, some of you guys are actually a little cooler than "bastards who think they know the shit about being regular lounger". Cuz leik that is totally what I thought you all were like when I saw the rebirth of this thread.

New Review Layouts
Yes, I like this new one very much, easy responses? I think not. I have a problem with responding, whenever I click in the (yes I knwo it should in the WI/WT forum but while I'm at it already) respond or edit button, nothing happens.

So I finally got an email back from that mike-designs guy.

It simply said,

"Get a life nerd"

What a jerk.

Send one back and be like..."I'm thinking about getting a life in law, sound good?" Anyways, his site's down right now, so hopefully you're good, unless it was by you.

Healthy (NGer) just sent me a link to this.
