That's probably why they didn't make a big news post announcement about it. It's only for hardcore fans. I can't wait for the day that I'll finally be able to give back to newgrounds.

It's been like that with a lot of shows and I was wondering if it's an unwritten rule or something.

I actually like this new season of South Park TBH, allot better than last season and it seems to change up the formula slightly, which is good.

Well, I'm a strong believer that there's exceptions to everything. You can't assume a rule of thumb is for everything. For instance, you can't say "Every show ever will degrade in quality" and expect it to work all the time.
The fact that the newer season of south park is not that bad, proves it.

Although the previous seasons have been shit and stale which means that they "ran out of ideas" at some point. So I'm at a loss here.

I emailed them asking to have it removed.

Should've sued 'em and use the money to give everyone free wacoms.

I'm lying right now.

I made an account before Newgrounds even existed. But then I forgot the password and made an account yesterday, then i lost the password again and made an account tomorrow. I'll probably lose that password as well.

No you're not. You're calling her a bitch because you're an edgy-ass 13 year old who thinks women are nothing but lust-objects.

Wow amaranthus, where did that come from? I always thought you were the edgy one and now you're putting people in their place? I trained you well I see.

From what I understand, youtube gets pretty much moderated by the users. If a submission gets enough Flags it'll get overlooked by the admins and then taken down.
That's why it's unpredictable and theres no clear line to cross. You might just be pissing off the wrong user at the wrong time and get taken down.

Just be subtle with it, that's all I can say.

I think it's more important that his power supply can handle it. If he has a fairly modern computer (2009 - now) his mobo should be compatible with a lot of popular graphics cards.
The REAL question is what kind of budget OP is going for. Seeing that graphic cards are very versatile. If OP just wants to play skyrim then I guess the GTX Titan should do.

Have fun playing skyrim on ultra with that card OP.

Being part of discussion in the forums is still a form of contribution, vs existing on the site as an account.

I like the idea of it being an unlock after 100 posts or something... We could even consider a default "Forum Lurker" option and then once you have x posts you could choose "Forum Reg" .............?

Yeah I don't think that would be a good way to go. I see a lot of forums that have stats based on how much you post. Then theres those forums that review your posts before you're even accepted.
People are already comparing post count for no reason other than to brag.

@liljim We should go back to the old system where your aura changes automatically. Didn't they get rid of it because people would blam mindlessly? Now that the aura doesn't reflect your voting anymore, we can bring that back.

Start out with blank slate and then when users:

Post in the forums a lot: Forum Reg
Submits movies a lot: animator
Submits games a lot: programmer
etc.

No? It could motivate people to submit more based on what they want their account to reflect.

Well the verdict is in. Even though the arguments for mp4 are better than swf (which are nostalgia based).
Does everybody agree with this? Keep in mind this is for MOVIES NOT GAMES.

It was kind of a shitty poll, especially since you forum people don't seem to care about the movies. But the animation forum wasn't too interested in my question.

I guess it's bye bye for SWF format from my point of view.

Just a little survey to see if what I should upload my animations in. I like the fact that I can adjust the volume from within the player but I also love creative preloader menus.

Anyone want to give their opinion?

it depends. if the movie is fully interactive, flash. If its just a film, mp4 because of the timeframe bar.

What would constitute "fully interactive"? I'm obviously not talking about a game seeing I posted this in the animation section.

Would links to tumblr/twitter/facebook a replay button, maybe a cool little game while the game loads (which would be pointless because internet speeds are so fast nowadays), count as fully interactive?

Water is pretty much free over here thanks to taxes.

JUST SO YOU CAN STEAL EM RIGHT

Do you prefer it when they're in the mp4 media player or do you prefer it to be the traditional flash player?

Oh I beg to differ.

Doesn't take much time to copy messages into just one reply box as you go through them one after another... a practice introduced to me by the veterans of the ancient BBS, back when I used to respond to each post individually. Back when that kind of thing was frowned upon. Back when I don't think admins were doing it. :P Anyway, personally I think it's a pretty easy process, but something like checkboxes for individual posts and then a button at the bottom could be useful too...

Oh yeah I bet everyone has their little ways of doing it. I myself have been doing it for so long it doesn't feel like a burden anymore.
But it's like you said, double posting is frowned upon even though there's no way to avoid it seeing there's no "easy" way to reply to multiple people.
Then theres the fact that this is a very specific community where a lot of interacting with a lot of people occurs.
It's just that now that they finally added that edit button (which I LOVE using), it makes me wonder if theres more they can do.

Anyway, it's a small thing and I wouldn't throw a fit if it didn't happen.

Right now the best way is to just list their name with @ in front of them, like @Damien @liljim if I wanted both you and Liljim to see my response. That will continue to be the best way for the foreseeable future.

Kind of a nuisance if their name is AbCdF45_xxxJoNhardcore or something. But ok, I guess it'll do for now.

I think that "Random" should be an option in the Sort By drop down menu in the portals.
Or there should be a random buttom on the portal views that randomises the currently displayed submissions.
That way in the Art/Audio and other portals it would be possible to see a whole group of random submissions at once.

I agree with this.

Cool features Tom! Can't wait for the eventual redesign of 2015! Or 2016! ....Probably 2017.

But while we're on the subject of upgrading the forums.....Is there a way to reply to multiple people in a thread? Because what I always end up doing is copy pasting quotes and replies into new replies. If you know what I mean.

I don't know how other people do it, and if I'm missing something. But it would be nice to be able to reply to multiple people without having to;

Copy typed text
Press back
Find the other person I wanted to reply to
Press reply
Find the right placement of where I want to paste
And then do it all over again for every person that posted in the thread.

It would be nice if there was some sort of overlay that pops up when you click reply. Or a quick reply box at the bottom that updates. Or maybe the reply page remembers your text and theres a button that says "reply to someone else" etc....

But thats just me. If no one else cares I guess I'd be in a minority. Maybe you guys are already working on that. Maybe I'm talking to much and should get back to work. Maybe I should come more often instead of telling you people what to do. okbye <3
