Are you referring to Moonwalker? There may have been a Flash version created recently, but the original was back from 1990, and was created for the Sega Genesis (or, that's what I've been lead to believe).

Anyway, if it was in the Flash portal, then I'd check the Portal listings
.

According to the game's Wikipedia article, it is rumoured to be released six months after Operation Anchorage on the PS3. Apparently OA is scheduled for July or later, so it'll be a while until it is released.

Oh god, Dr Pepper fund running dry again, after my 2 bottle-1-can-per-day streak. I'm going to have to borrow Sysko's personal assistant and shank up bare manz foar a fillup.

You have to be thirteen to have a profile/account on the site, however Newgrounds is free for everybody to use, regardless of age, as long as you keep to viewing age-suitable content.

If you're using Windows XP Professional, then you can do so by going to:

Run: gpedit.msc -> User Configuration -> Desktop -> Show recycle bin on desktop -> Double-click -> Disabled.

I may have left out a few stages, since I did this a long time ago, but that's the gist of it. Keep in mind that it only works in the professional edition of XP.

Right now, the only way is to ask either TomFulp or PsychoGoldfish for the scripts required, so you can apply them to your Flash, but unless the game is of a very high quality, the chances are that your application will be denied. If you really want to request it, and feel that your Flash is good enough, then send a PM to one of them.

When the system's out of it's beta stage, it will take far less waiting to have them added, and the quality threshold will be a little lower.

Yes, they were very short (and generally completely shit) but I didn't apply for the NGPD until a good 1500 or so posts later, when I had improved on my quality a lot. As an apointed member of the NGPD, I judge new members on their recent posting habits, rather than their posts from a good few months, or even years ago, and your recent posts are not quite up to the standard that users are usually judged on.

Looking at them, it looks like most of your posts are just ways of getting closer to that milestone. The large majority of them are just one line long, and show no effort whatsoever. Try to improve on your future posts, and when you've made another good few posts of a decent quality, and you'll be free to request membership again, but for now, I'm afraid that I have to reject you.

I doubt this. The chances are that it's a load of bullshit that Beer's made up for the attention. Also, he was part of the FFF, not FF.

Also, Regarding the CP issue, He's now posting anti CP videos in the portal. Quite ironic, no?

My initial thoughts about that is that Chris is trying to make a reputation of himself as the top spammer, and now that the Ducks have moved on to strictly illegal spamming, he feels compelled to so he can remain as public enemy number one for the admins.

What a shame. It seems that the DD's activity has been going up again recently. Looking around for things that break such strict rules as that definitely wouldn't be a waste of time. If you, or anyone in the EGB find users who have submitted CP, then make sure you alert us.

It's great to see that there's some interest in the club, but you're probably going to have to improve on your post quality. There are walls of one-liners on there, and most of your posts don't look like they've had a lot of time spent on them. If you tried to apply right now, I'd (regretably) have to deny your application.

I'll read and reply (if neccasary) to the rest of the posts here in a while.

Good luck with the new thread. It looks like it's had a good start so far. Great first post.

My brother would like one of his tunes reviewed, and since it was completely lost in with the other requests in the old thread (enough for it to not have received a single review), I felt that I should rerequest it if that's possible. Cheers.

It's great to see more action being taken against award stealing, simply taking a personal lookout for them and only sharing them in places like here, where pretty much everyone have already seen it, giving exposure to a newspost about it on a popular user's blog will draw a bit more attention to the problem Flashes. I've worked my way through about half of the list, and haven't found any Flashes that make it very obvious that they're going for the award, but if I do find any I'll write a sincere review and try to raise the awareness of it against the other Flashes that look like they have little chance of being used as a tool for award stealing.

I'd advise every user here to pay a lot of attention to it, especially on Tuesday nights (seeing as the awards are handed out the moment Wednesday starts in EST).

My wireless adapter was busted for a few days, but it's back now, so I'll be able to spend more time in the department again.

What is this? The third time I've made a similar post to this this week.

If you want to collaborate with someone on a Flash, then you should look in the Flash forum, however people probably won't take kindly to you asking to make an animation for them. If you have a talent that you could use to contribute to collaborating with other users on animations or games, then you should be able to present that to others with no problem.

I'm going to have to break into another £20 (equivalent of over $33) soon, since my Dr Pepper fund looks fit to run dry in a few days. Buying 2-3 bottles a day really does take it's toll on my wallet.

Coming from a retired troll, if you really do find every single one of the people you're annoying to be an idiot, or otherwise piss you off themselves, it can be very funny to see that people are falling for your traps, but most (not all, I actually have respect for two or three of them) Newgrounds trolls target everyone, rather than just the people who are naturally annoying and/or detract from whatever community that is, which means that everyone have to suffer for their actions.

Also, about all this talk regarding the FF getting quite bad, is this all true, or are people making a mountain over a molehill? Last time I was really active in the portal, they showed that they were putting a bit of effort into their Flashes, and I found them all hilarious.

At 6/10/09 02:17 AM, Andrea364 wrote: Yeah. Me too. I was really enjoying the flags and stuff. Perhaps they got a Portal Ban?

Along with the hundreds of account deletions, there has probably been many portal bans, but they can easily get around it. There are a lot of ways, but Tor is probably their favourite. I know that a lot of raids on the forum have been caused by just three or four people, who keep coming back on a new IP every time they're banned. When they pull them off well enough, it seems like there are a good 20 or 30 participants in it.

2 paragraphs? Are you sure you're not going to get bogged down by the amount of people requesting paragraphs? That's happened to almost everyone else who requests these sorts of things.

Anyway, I'd like to request one.

I'll be back again now. For the last few days my internet connection has been painfully slow, so I've been able to connect to Newgrounds, but it was rarely strong enough to make more than a few posts. It seems to be picking up again now.

I thought the same when I saw both of those submissions, but I've searched around the net, and I can't find any solid evidence right now. I'll look again after I've left school, though I doubt anything that I didn't find earlier today will appear.

Pretty much. If you have more than one partition on your drive, then using the partition manager inside My Computer->Manage->Disk Management is a good alternative, though you might end up getting Error 17'ed when you put something else on there in the future.

All of the Flash works fine through wine, but I don't think any Photoshop or any of the Adobe versions of Flash will be working, since the anti-piracy features stop it from running without registry entries.

It's hard to find conclusive evidence, but a few of the things that you can point out to help you are things like:

-The dimensions matching up - A common feature in many stolen Flashes is that the dimensions of the Flash file, and what's been entered on Newgrounds, since most of the time users who steal Flashes simply save the SWF and post it elsewhere, rather than decompiling it and checking it's specs, which sometimes leaves the Flash scrolled in too much or with white borders around the outside. This isn't at all conclusive, but it often points towards thievery.

-Single users filling the portal with high quality Flashes - This may sound like a dead giveaway, but a crew of Flash thieves, named the BurstFilmsCrew did this a lot before their first deletion. They were submitting two (the maximum amount of Flashes that you can submit in a single day) very good Flashes every day. It takes a long time to produce animations and games, and it was obvious that the things that they were churning out twice-daily each took at least a month or two. Nevertheless, they got off with this for quite a while until a group of people (including myself, actually) finally got through to Wade.

-It existing on another website from a long time ago - Just because a Flash is all across the internet, on many other sites, it doesn't mean that it's stolen, but if a website has it dated back to a long time ago, then it's highly likely that it's stolen. An author isn't going to submit a Flash to Newgrounds two years after he's submitted it to other sites, unless in very rare circumstances.

These aren't the only things to look out for, but to help out Flash authors like you, who are having their content stolen, recognising that Flashes that show these things are likely to be stolen and doing a few checks across the internet in order to look for stronger evidence can make a very big difference.

Since quite a few months ago, it seems that the Batting Averages have been frozen. Back when I was a regular over at the Flash forum, many people were experiencing the same problem, and since when those problems started arising, I don't think mine's changed (although I haven't checked it in a while).

I'd wait a while, and if it still isn't working then work it out yourself (it's the mean).

Fuck, I completely forgot what date it was on, I was hoping to make a quick Flash for it. Anyway, happy birthday.
