I can't patrol the forums 24/7. I periodically stop in to check the forums while I'm visiting other sites on the internet. The troll ended up getting deleted and I removed his posts. Sorry if I wasn't quick enough for you.

We were all new at one time. Just because you have an early or later sign-up date doesn't make you any better than the next person if you act like a troll on the forums.

Chopping logs into firewood.

Chain letters are spam, kid... Don't fight the system.

It's probably because you're 13 or under.

Whitekingdom is a review mod since when?

Sounds like a spam ban, which = a permanent ban. Most review mods including myself will ban for posting such rubbish as chain letter spam and the such. It's very annoying, even if it's only done twice.

That account is very mind boggling. It is possible to get B/P and not deposit, simply by only voting on four submissions per day. But after some quick calculations, it's impossible for him to have that much, especially in just only two years.

The site was redesigned in July 2007. There were originally only 30 EXP levels, and you had to click a link to deposit your experience instead of having it deposited automatically for you.

Stop giving everyone reasons to hate you.

The room has been too quite for too long, someone join me, I'm lonely.

Just like most people here pick / flame on the new users on here.

"Locked thread smoke."

Don't breathe this.

As much of a waste of space you might think it is, the video thread helps conserve space on the general forum instead of having 20 different ones on the first page.

It's there to inconvenience potential spammers like yourself from flooding the comment boxes. If you're getting that message there is no way your comments are worth anyone else's time.

What a terrible way to start this thread, with a unfunny picture which is totally contradictory of this topic's title. Look on the bright side though, at least this topic will end on a good note, knowing that we won't have to view a thread full of overused cat pictures 99% of us have seen on google.

To answer the original question

Seems like most alts now are just gimmick accounts.

As far as reasons for making them: (not that I support these reasons)
- before the redesign, we were able to change out user names, the alt serves as a nameholder so someone else doesn't take your original alias. This also being the reason why I made my alt, Sanjay.
- A way to get past the 4 posts per 30 minutes reply in a topic. Most notably used in sig threads or rating threads, which are often locked or deleted now
- To get around a ban while your main account is banned. Doing so and getting caught may result in a extended ban, permaban or even account deletion
- Gimmick / troll account, people will make these accounts to mock other users or to make a complete ass out of themselves, usually with the intention of getting banned
- And on a much lesser extent, some users may make an additional account for statistical purposes, such as a notable calendar date, to blam or protect only etc...

Now I will re-lock this as the discussion in this topic so far has been pretty lame minus a post or two.

I've posted it before but I think it's fitting for this topic. One of the few times I have been legitimately drunk.

Hurry up and throw something together. Handing in a last minute mess is still better than nothing at all.

I cannot foresee any intelligent conversation in this topic's future.

This almost looks like a ripoff of my appreciation topics, but nonetheless, fountain pens are dandy.

Probably some of those balloons they have at the circus. About 20 of them fit into a pretty smal bag, but once they're blown up they're about 100x their original size.

This thread fails to meet the minimum entertainment level to allow for additional replies.

Feel free to continue this convo in the official chrome thread which has been on the 1st page of general for quite some time.

Mine would be Patellica.

My audio submissions I've uploaded to Newgrounds are under that artist name.

With the times I'm seeing in here, I would think Newgrounds would win several gold medals in the olympics, and quite possibly add new world records. Not what I expected from a forum where cock jokes and hentai are mainstream.

My fastest mile ever was just a little under 7 minutes, but I don't think I'd be able to do that again. I may still be able to pull off an 8 minute mile.

Less than that actually, Typically I won't ban if the review is more than 2 weeks old unless the reviewer was obviously spamming.

This topic looks more like a chatroom with all the +1 posts in here. Locked for great justice.

It doesn't matter how old the review is, if it's abusive it will eventually get deleted. However, you shouldn't get banned from reviews that are that old.
