Hey Peace kid here you go. This is courtesy of MuffDiver102 not me, he only asked me to post it becasue he's just been banned on some bullshit call by a mod. Anyways enjoy!!!

Uhhhh that is the exact opposite of an abusive review. Just because he gave it a low score and called it terrible, he gave many reasons why the score was given and also suggestions for the future.

Hey guys! How is everyone?! Well I apologize in advance if I'm breaking any rules by posting here, but it is in regard to Phantomlassuk's last post. I looked into this problem and contacted sevensize, a review and forum mod, and he is going to contact an admin to have the stolen submission removed.

I miss this place, but believe me I'm working my ass off to fix my godforsaken whistle. It's really hard to tell if what you're doing to fix it is working, because it takes forever to raise it, and it can't get any lower. Not to mention the obvious problem of being able to see your whistle points.

Anyways, I hope everyone is well and I'm always reading the goings on here so eventually I can jump right back into the swing of things!

It passed, but all the reviews that mention that it's stolen are abusive

They do have whistle points, but no one can see them. Yes I agree that we should be able to see them, and a clear guide line is written on how points are assigned rather than: if you flag it and it's deleted = +, if you flag it and it's cleared = -. Not even the review mods can see the points.

That is all one fatty promotion, for several other flashes. He has that in each review. How is that not abusive?

I don't know, they seem abusive to me as they do break the guide lines. did you flag them and they were cleared? or have you not flagged them yet?

Dear all Elite Guard Barracks members,

It has recently come to my attention that some of my prior actions or posts, were misconstrued as disrespectful to members of the barracks. I would first like to take the time to say that these said actions were all unintended to cause controversy or insult anyone, and second of all I apologize for these actions in the most sincere way possible. As a result of being alerted to this information, I have decided to resign my status/membership as a guardsman here as to fix my whistle in order to achieve full membership status, and to right any wrongs I have committed. I also wish to do this to become more familiar with the BBS as a whole, for a few of my past actions/comments were technically against the rules. Again I apologize to all that may have been annoyed, insulted, or feel like they have been disrespected in any regards. I have the utmost respect for all members of this fine establishment including officers, members, and fellow guardsman.

I hope you all continue your well fought efforts to protect the portal as I will, but from the sidelines.

Corporal DBlach signing off.

*Salutes*

Haha I'm so devious! I was right about the plug thing, and it turns out that my dad has to disable the internet connection to the entire house, just to keep me away from here; but no worries I have found the cable he unplugs and can be on more frequently, however he will eventually notice that I have figured out how to correct this situation, so i regret to say that my b/p pace will most likely slow down.

Well gotta go!

Hey guys! I apologize for my inactiveness lately, my dad has developed an annoying habit of disconnecting my internet connection when ever the fuck he feels like it. I've figured out he doesn't do it through his computer, but literally pulls a plug somewhere in his office. Now I just gotta sneak in there and figure out which one it is :P It's probably attached to the modem or something.

Anyways thanks for the roster update Joshiwa, again I'm still looking forward to finally seeing my stats as a guardsman back up there. Congrats to all rankups and top five!

What I don't get about this whole Suaron thing, is I'm not sure why his account hasn't been eliminated yet. This is the second time all of his "movies" have been deleted. I don't know why Wade still puts up with it. Plus all the, again "movies", are just like tests of logos or explosions, nothing with any hint of a plot. So if he's tired of deleting all the pointless submissions, then I would just delete his account.

Sorry i haven't been posting.

To make up for it here's 4 pages of abusive reviews.

This isn't the place for that, in fact there is a whole thread containing 1,160 pages in the Wi/Ht section of the BBS. It's called Rage's gift to you: abusive reviews. User's post links to abusive reviews so that others can flag them, thus earning whistle points.

Check today's obituaries!

All those Andrea364 movies got deleted, except for this one. No authors were deleted, although.

The question is: were they deleted because they were spam or Andrea herself requested them to be deleted? Andrea, could you answer that for us?

*Salutes*

Yeah thats nice they got deleted but I am mad that I didn't get any blam points from them being deleted ( that is if they were deleted by Wade). I 0'd them all. But oh well at least they are gone.

*salutes*

I was waiting for that to happen, there wasn't a difference between this new selection of "test" flashes from the lot that was deleted on pico day, except that they were all andrea themed. Still not sure why that is.... Well anyways, I'm glad that waterlollies and NG rumble won; although i feel that waterlollies (although good) is over rated and I would have liked to see something a little less known around NG win.

Anyways I just got back from playing with my jazz band at a dinner dance at a swanky restaurant for about 175 people. We played really well and i think that everyone in the joint danced at least once, we did play about 50 tunes, so now it's off to bed with me.

Yeah I mentioned it at 12:40 this morning. It has been a fairly busy day in the portal, I already have over 100 B/Ps. I have seen a few really good submissions and few really bad submissions, I am just happy people are not going save happy because they think its suppose to be like Clock Day.

Yeah Clock day is way different, EVERYTHING gets saved, rarely any exceptions correct? Sorry I missed your post this morning, I too have about 100 B/P for today and I'm not done yet! Only 6 more till my rank up I can't wait!

Sorry to hear about your upcoming downtime FBIPolux. It seems like you are always on from dawn till dusk, hopefully you'll be active again soon :)

Not all of it, it used to but NG is starting to realize that spam is spam no matter who made it, be it clocks, locks, socom squad. But on Clock day (August 15) everything passes, sometimes thousands. And like it was mentioned earlier, a small file size is a dead giveaway most of the time (with the exception of B) that it will be blammed. As for saves, become familiar with the well known and prolific authors. Stuff by them usually passes too. Hope that helps! PM me with any questions!

Yeah, but what everyone has said is right...noone should post level-ups here, as that is considered spam by mods. We've almost gotten locked several times because of posts like that, so watch it.

Alright, alright i'll never tell any of you guys when I'm excited about leveling up ok? Jeez didn't know it was such a huge deal, I've seen people do it before...

Vent is good for voice chatting. Its most popular usage is in WoW, but it'd be good for people to either chat or talk at night. Either way, it'd take me 2 minutes to install and configure so why not install it?

Well if it's so easy , then I might have to get it as well! I've already got a USB mic from my PS3 i could just plug that in and be ready to go! One question though, is it free? Or is it one of those things where the manufacturer wants to charge you for it, but you can get it for free somewhere other than their official website?

I actually just got back from Microcenter, and got a new surge protector and a battery backup system for the server. Now all I need is a new hard drive for file storage, and we're good :-)

Alright, can't wait till its all up and running!

sorry for the double post, but isn't there a rule about submitting without making notable changes? If so than this one breaks it for sure. He even says so in his comments. Here it is.

:a lot of stuff:

Wow nice post, I will gladly apply to the NGDD. You're completely right about the shortened flow of new applicants and decrease in post quality. The post quality hasn't changed much in here and i can't say for the NGDD, but definitely in the NGPD; the majority of posts are oneliners. And this worries me greatly for a few reasons. First, the NGPD is our primary source of new recruits. If they continually post oneliners and dick around all the time (with a few exceptions e.g. SoulMaster71, BobbaQ, and a few others), and get away with it, they will think it's okay to act like that if they apply here. So I see where you are coming from.

So as I mentioned before, I will start to watch the NGDD thread and once i feel like i get the gist of things, I'll apply, so expect to see me around!

Hahaha, thats not what were talking about but thanks anyway. Its called real life catching up with you.

Yeah i know trust me, but NG helps me escape school and home and all the shit that happens at both. That's one of the reasons i like this place so much. Anyways I'm looking forward to hearing the NGDD report tonight it sounds important...

I've been posting in there a little bit today, so meh. Normally I try to avoid it and post in the C&C and Wi/Ht, but both of my preferred forums have been fairly slow today, which is why i ventured into General. It's not all that bad I guess, as long as there's one or two interesting thread going on.

Also, my B/P sucks lately.

Yeah I have been off and on all day today.

I know how you feel man. my B/P pace is a let down to me personally. I just don't have the time/ don't want to give the time I use to anymore. Maybe I will get out of the funk but who knows.

Dunno about yesterday as I wasn't around, but it seems slow-ish today. I've actually resorted to posting in the General forums... :(

Oh no! That slow? Well as long as you bring some intelligence to that part of the BBS I dont mind. All one has to do is browse through the thread titles to realize how hellish the general forum has become. What makes me laugh is when people ask for girl or relationship advice. Ha! What losers. Oh well NG has been quite slow this week, maybe it has something to do with Tom being gone...

I think that would be a great idea. Although the choice is up to EagleRock, I think it should be something military like.

:: : I'm liking this podcast idea, I'd like to see (or help) it develop.

Anyone we can gather is fine. I'll set a time once I get more time and we can flesh it out. I usually record for about 60-75 minutes, which is plenty of material for the full podcast. I can cut out the pauses and the BRB's and all that crap, then add my little stuff. In case anyone wants to know, here's the format I use:

Intro Song/Blurb (1 min or so)
My Blurb (5 mins or so)
Barracks News with all attending members - (15-25 mins)
Intermission featuring song from Audio Portal - (3-5 mins)
Barracks Discussion with all attending members - (15-25 mins)
Outro Song/Blurb (1 min or so)

My own blurb I didn't have fleshed out yet. The one I used for the first episode was just introducing the podcast. I'll probably have my own quick rants or whatever in it. The part I actually record with everyone else listening to is the Barracks News and Discussion segments. The News section is all about current events on NG, whereas the Discussion is about certain topics that we pick beforehand. Last episode was all about mass-voting and how to stop it, and about how to vote fairly and all that. This time, I'd probably choose something a bit more interesting to mix it up, but still keep it in the grain of NG.

I am also psyched for this podcast, I think updating everyone about the current goings on in the barracks will only help and increase communication between all of us, and also those who believe in what we do. I have a pretty nice USB mic I use for my PS3, so I'd love to be a part of this! (If you'll have me!)
