Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

About time! I always knew that there was going to be a Minecraft crew sooner or later. I've been introduced to it, and prodded into buying alpha, by several friends and since known it's extremely addictive properties.

I, for one, play almost exclusively on peaceful mode because I really can't be arsed to deal with monsters while I'm building a new house or whatnot. I might have to play on higher difficulties if I'm going to obtain the records for my jukeboxes. Speaking of which, I've constructed two homes in separate locations that are carved inside mountains. I recently found a third location which I might turn into a house.

Also, does anyone keep track of which way is north? Sometimes when I travel far from my home(s), I "jump stack" a bunch of material blocks and, judging by the sun's rise and descent, mark the north-facing side of the tower with some torches.

Anyways, best wishes for this crew. Keep crafting!

I'm open to the proposition of going along with a 2-week roster. After all, I'd hate to see you getting stressed out keeping up with the roster. I don't think anyone else will mind either, but if anyone does please let us know.

What is this? Wipe that sad faic off, this is a joyous moment! You have now ascended to the great and glorious ranks of the Elite Guards. And to add to that, you're still always welcome to stick around for as long as you'd like. You know... I always thought you had the most curious name.

So congratulations on your promotion and honorable discharge, Salad! The NGPD salutes you for all that you've done for the Portal!
*Salute*

Hey everyone! I want you all to know that mdf's apprenticeship has ended and that his REP is now open in the forums. So to all members, please report to the PF to cast your vote. Former NGPD elite guards are also welcome to participate! Now have at it, team!

*salute*

I asked Wade too delete all of my reviews, I didn't think any bad, besides losing all of my reviews, would come out of it.

What's so bad about it? At worst it's a slight annoyance. If I recall correctly, it's not like you lose your entire review-in-progress when it reminds you to check the box.

Whoa man, haven't seen you around in ages! Things have been relatively slow lately, but I guess it's to level out the extreme activity we had a couple months back. I'll try to get back into the swing of things soon.

Yarg, I can attest to the ass kicking portion of college. Currently my hind is being handed to me on a silver platter, which explains why I've been so inactive lately (what's your excuse?) and apparently I just cannot learn Java despite my sincerest efforts. Sorry for not being around as much, I just got a lot going on right now and I'm sure Liz does too. Thanks everyone for being so patient thus far, I'm confident that Liz will get back to us about the roster in due time.

If insufficient changes were made to the flash to justify another submission, then it is abusive. Otherwise it should be left alone. This is pretty tricky since some of us haven't seen the previously blammed flash to compare it to.

Have you tried referring to this?

To answer your first question: no, I never said such a thing. I believe you took my reprimand too personally and are now being defensive about it. If you read closely, I never said NOT to report submissions that are blatantly stolen or suspicious of being so. I was merely informing you that we have standards and procedures for reporting flashes.
Posting a link to a flash, slapping on a copypasta of the author's comments, followed by an "uhhhh".... seriously?

False confession or not, it does seem fishy, which is why I posted it. Matter of fact, I didn't even say that it was stolen - I simply posted the link for your own personal investigation. Asking people not to share any possibly stolen content with the NGPD seems like a bad decision if you ask me, but if you say so, I'll just go ahead and keep these to myself in the future. I would think if you called yourselves the Police Department that you would be willing to do some investigation yourselves, but okay XD

Good sir, you know not what you speak of. I've done more investigation than you can count, and then some. More over, just about everyone here as investigated a number of flashes for themselves. Do you know why? Because they did it right. I only ask that people make our jobs a little easier by going through the effort of providing some PROOF to back up their suspicions and so that others can quickly and efficiently investigate the case.

Now, had you said "I think this flash is suspicious, can anyone confirm if it's stolen or not? + [link]" that would've been just fine. You were just being lazy.

If you want to continue this discussion, please reply on PM. I don't want this on the thread.

This is my first ubmission,so no hard ratings please!
I don't own this game,it elongs to the the people of www.ebilgames.com
They have pretty good games,so better check it out!

Uhh..

You can't take the author's word for it and just call it a day. You have to consider the possibility that the submitter is making a false confession so that lots of people lose their whistle points. Unlikely, but a risk I'm not willing to take, and neither should anyone else. If you think something's stolen, you MUST provide a link to the original to serve as proof - no exceptions. Ever.

Is this understood by everyone?

Good day to you all! It's been a while, but we finally have a new apprentice so give a warm welcome to sergeant mdf99! He applied via PM and I saw that he had potential, so here he is. Hopefully the FAQ page I linked to briefed you on how we do things around here. Lizzardis is right, we're not a blam crew as expressed on the OP.

Aside from that, carry on men!
*salute*

I'm not talking about the FAQ, specifically. I mean that there are other features besides the FAQ on tha website that you can check out. You see that little Navigation Box on the left side of the screen? Yeeaaahhhhhh.....

At 9/29/10 01:31 AM, 34Deadman wrote: I figure I should say something about getting back on topic but knew you would do that. I like Jolly's idea of a list showing all the active members. Make people know who is running around in this joint. Might as well add things like saying who were the former Co-Op's and Roster Makers here.

Sounds like a lot of busywork. Instead, I hyperlinked some of the text to the member list. I'd rather not have to keep up with updating two memberlists in two different sites IMO so why not kill two birds with one stone? As for former Unit Ops., we have this site.

I don't think we'll really need to worry about Roster Makers. They're all credited in one way or another in the Roster List. You should explore the FAQ site a little moar. There's some useful shit.

At 9/29/10 01:00 AM, Jolly wrote: A list of the active members?

Good idea, I think I'll sneak a link to the member list somewhere in there.

In all honesty I just want to be on the page.

Geez, that's some real incentive to get involved, eh?

At 9/29/10 01:03 AM, Jolly wrote: Oh wait.. I have higher than 2,500 B/P...

Does that mean I'm out?

Though you may not be able to become a member, we do have a section called Elite Guard Guests of Honor in the member list. It's a title for Elite Guards who have distinguished themselves in the NGPD. Folks like Lizzardis and Sheizen to name a few.

I don't know what would be wrong with it, but I just have a gut feeling on it.

Prove me wrong, sirs.

oh and NSFW

How about you prove yourself right, you lazy bastard ;) I don't see anything overtly wrong with it. It has naked pictures, but nothing that I'd consider real hardcore porn. It's just crappy in my books.

it's good to see you around here again TP :)

Don't you EVER be hatin on the crowbar, son. Anyways, I feel that this conversation is steering the crew away from its intended topic. Shall we move onto something else? Say... anything that we can possibly add onto the wiki page I linked to in my previous post?

I wonder how I forgot to tell you guys. Hmmm... Well anyways, I may plan on adding moar onto the Newgrounds wiki page but for now it should be just fine. I could've done a little more research and picked up the date when each recruitment process was adopted. It is well within my ability to do so, but I don't feel like sifting through dozens of pages at the moment.

Hope you enjoy.

For the time being, I consider this the complete article for the NGPD. I honestly feel like I could add more, but right now I can't be arsed to do much. It'll suffice for now. Hope yall like what you see.

If anyone's is trying edit the NG wiki article, please allow me to finish first. I nearly lost two hours of work because it told me someone had edited the article while I was working. Fortunately I have a backup onhand and it's just a matter of copypasta, but please be patient if anyone had attempted to work on it.

I plan to do it in increments, I decided. I'll work on each section individually so that I don't overlook something important. Rome wasn't built in a day after all :3

Hey all, I thought I should let you guys know that I plan on spearheading a rather sizable revision on the NGPD's page on Wikigrounds.com, which is pretty much the NG wikia.

I noticed that a lot of the information is not exactly accurate to the NGPD today, and I think it'd be pretty cool to be recognized in wiki-form, if that makes sense. Anyways, I'm going to attempt to improve it now. Wish me luck!

Hello gentlemen, I'm Tails, head of the NGPD, and I'd like to request permission to edit the page regarding the Newgrounds Police Dept. I feel that I am capable of making substantial additions to the article and correct several aspects that I believe do not accurately describe the crew.

Of course, I plan to maintain a high degree of strict objectivity so that all who reference the page can expect to receive the straight facts. I also have some trivia that many NG'ers might find very interesting.

To whom this concerns, I await your reply.

Miley Cyrus. As a matter of fact, I do not find her really attractive at all and I cannot sympathize with those who praise her for her alleged attractiveness. Meh.

I know people from Sweden can make some pretty awesome trance music, like B0UNC3. Also Skwisgaar Skwigelf.

I see what you guys are saying. I just consider the gun-name crews more branching off the GG rather than the CC. Hell, none of the other gun crews even attempt to rhyme with Clock. But anyways, they generally do suck I think we can agree on that.

I dare to say that the Luger Legion is more a spin off of the Glock Group rather than the Clock Crew. Like the Glock, the Luger is a 9mm originating in countries with closely tied histories (Austria and Germany, respectively).

Spinoff crews have dropped to a new low.

Hopefully you can try to convince them to stop their slander.

I strongly doubt that anything we can say will convince them to cease their operations. Besides, they're legitimate flash crews (well, SS at least) so trying to subvert them would violate our code.

I've been poking in and out of RS lately. I do kinda want that new Explorer ring, but it'll take a significant amount of training. Right now I'm trying to level up my crafting by making bowls (as you can see) so that I can make a ruby ammy. I already have the proper mage level to enchant it, fortunately.

Also I'll really have to kick up my rc, wc & fm, smithing and a bit of prayer to reach my goal. But I won't be on right now, gotta take care of some reading assignments first.

In my dorm, I could probably rip out the wooden pole for my coathangers from my closet. It's about 4 ft long and a little over an inch thick so it'll make a decent bludgeoning weapon until I can get my hands on something better. Probably not enough to kill, but certainly handy for knockin a few zeds off their feet so I can get the hell out of there.

Back at home, I'd grab my Louisville Slugger. Look out zombehs, Jimmy's crackin corn, and by corn I mean your fucking skulls.

Police sargeant get!

I am now Sargeant Pearce, but you can all call me sarge. Anywho, I haven't posted here for a while, so I need to catch up sometime, I've probably got about 100+ this week, so I'm hoping I'll rank when the roster is released.

Excellent work, Sarge, and congratulations on your promotion! I'm also looking forward to this week's roster; not for myself since I honestly didn't do jack shit... but rather to see how others did.

Smokin bowls err day.
