lol u fuckwit u dont sound like ur 22, and if you are youre a pretty sad one. i mean, for your signature it just says "im on bad mofo" like some dumb 8 year old from detroit would put (not an insult to detroit by the way). and i bet you call people "n00bs" as if ur better than them because u have better knowledge of this site. jesus christ get a life man, sort urself out. and another thing, calling him a "little punk" makes you sound like ur one of those crazy 80 year olds sitting in his front garden with a cat and a pipe.

Hey assclown, try to stay on the topic. Awww, are you upset because I put down little 16 year olds? Does your mom still wipe your ass and powder your babydick? And how do I not "sound" like I'm 22? Because you're so grammatically correct in your post? Is it because you've heard me speak? Just shut the fuck up, mind your business, and stay on the topic. The point I was making to flipsidedcom was he should learn a bit more so he could understand what I was saying. And to clarify, his site does "borrow" a lot from Newgrounds, but that is commonplace these days.

That's a joke, man. It's not the "ripping off" of the idea of making a flash showcase site. It's the "ripping off" off the flash that the admin used to create the site, the EXACT same layout, the EXACT same ideas on the flash viewing part (the reviews section reflects Newgrounds perfectly, change the fact that Newgrounds is much better as it uses flash for its own site, and the colour sheme you wouldn't tell the difference, along with the voting, FS points?! But too much of a coincidence!) at least Pepsi and Coke, for example, don't start stealing each other's website layouts!!! And, if we're getting onto the product itself, obviously they have different ingredients, not exactly the same, or else there would've been a lawsuit years ago and they would TASTE THE SAME, just like Flipside or whatever LOOKS THE SAME as Newgrounds.

Another teenager who has no idea what they are talking about and didn't understand what I was saying. What does Pepsi and Coke's website have to do with anything? I'm talking about the product. Their product is soda; the product in question is a flash website. Do you understand what an analogy is? Look, Pepsi and Coke (the soda itself moron) look exactly the same. They both use cola beans, corn syrup, & other stuff. The both are carbonated. They taste the same to me. They come in cans and bottles. And they both have their distinct "Brand Supporters". The differences are so suttle they are barely even there. Yet they both thrive and make money and continue to put out new variations. The point is although this kid (and I guess a bunch of others) basically used the same idea, it's not the EXACT same thing. I'm not saying I agree with him but I'm not saying he's wrong either. So I say to you as I said to him, "Finish school and get an education and a real job. And read a book on economics."

How can you have "Brand Loyalty" if you have 8 whole posts? You seem very dedicated to me.

Because I only have 8 posts means I haven't come to this site for 5 years? Listen to me you 16 year old piece of shit. You know nothing of the real world. NOTHING! I'm so sick of you punks thinking you know everything. It's always you 13-18 year olds voicing your opinion the loudest and not realizing how fucking stupid you sound. You're still in fucking High School. Talk to me after you get an education and a job. And CVS or McDonald's doesn't count. If you weren't such a stupid, naive little punk you'd have realized I was sticking up for you. Try reading a book on economics and get back to me.

I posted this on the "Total ripoff of the NG portal?" post before I saw this one. So to re-iterate:

HA HA HA! This is funny! This is very funny. I started coming to this site now and then during my freshman year of college (1999). In 2001 I decided to set up an account here because I felt the site was growing and getting better and better. This site has inspired me to look at flash and really formulate an opinion on them. Now with all the success of this site and more and more people joining just like I did and all of you who posted, did you think that no one else would try to cut a slice off for themselves? It's just like anything else. Anyone ever heard of Pepsi and Coke? Chips-A-Hoy and Chips-Deluxe? Smacks and Golden Crisp? These are all companys who use the same product. If there is a copyright issue I'm sure the Fulp borthers would be right on top of it. But, I'm sure they know that there is no copyright on hosting flash just like there are a shit-load of phone companys. So are these other sites "ripping off" an idea? Yes. Does this happen everyday? Yes. Is there anything you can do about it? No. All I can say is I'm sticking with Newgrounds because I have "Brand Loyalty".

I hope this turns into a zero tolerance policy on Newgrounds. One strike and you're out. Also, I think you should start doing the same with people who submit a 1K movie that is just "asking" to be blammed. It's such a waste of time, takes up Portal space, and is annoying as well.

So... Will anyone make this guys dream a reality? :)

Has anyone actually posted a reply to the fucking question? I'm sure a simple "Yes or No" will suffice.

I appreciate that Newgrounds wants to protect the people who submit movies since, after all, without these people we wouldn't have a Newgrounds. To all those who submit quality work I wish to thank you. Thanks for making Newgrounds a fun place. But I wonder why we don't protect the viewers, ie those of us who have to watch the movies, good or bad. I think a lot of people used to vote before watching is because The Portal is flooded everyday with shitty submissions. Submissions that are 1k or 10k which last for 2 seconds. To me, that is a waste of Newgrounds viewers' time. Today I voted 0 on the submission "Ilse gonna die part 2". This submission will no doubt be blammed. As was the first Ilse submission done yesterday I believe. This is what makes Newgrounds not fun. This kind of bullshit is what makes viewers less tolerant of those newcomers who wish to try out submitting. I know I sometimes vote lower on a movie after I see something like "Ilse gonna die part 2". So to all you newcomers out there, I apologize. Some of you just wish to learn the ways of Flash and I commend that. Still, some of you just like to fuck around and waste people's time. My point is that if you are going to penalize those who vote lower on movies take a look at the obituraries everyday. Start disciplining those who consistantly submit crap. Thaks for your time.

Let's all thank LilJim for adding this feature which will hopefully help to protect our contributors from unfair voters! Again, we will still watch for people handing out mass 0's for whatever sick reason they have for doing so.

Also I have updated the NG STICKER map! I still have to add some names to the TOP order list. So keep those sticker orders coming in so we can completely cover the map with NG stickers!

Actually, that letter made me change what I wish to be done. I said we should turn the Middle East into a parking lot, and in some ways I still think
it wouldn't be a bad idea, but now I have a new suggestion. There are many elite military units in the world today. In the United States we have the U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Berets) and the Navy SEALS (Sea-Air-Land). The British have their SAS (Special Air Service). The Russians have the SPETSNAZ (SPETSialnoye NAZranie, "troops of special purpose). The Israelis have the Sayeret Matkal (The Unit). And the French have their GIGN (Goupe d'Intervention de la Gendarmerie Nationale, "National Gendarmes Intervention Group"). All of these units are designed for anti-terrorism. My point? We should have this Osama Bin Laden fucker already. If we use our combined forces around the world this would be a joke. So lets get on it people and crucify this shithead.

Who fucking cares? So what if "The Clock Crew" makes shitty ass movies. Big deal. So do a lot of other people. Hey, I'm not fan of these people but if you're stupid enough to click on Vote 5 for Porn then you deserve to have your computer crash. Damn, if you need porn that badly just search the web for a minute as I'm sure you'll find some free porn. Personally, I think their submissions suck dick but I just don't bother to look at them. It's that fucking simple. I don't care if they get banned or not, but if you're going to ban them, you should ban everyone else who makes stupid shit.

In light of these events I've decided that we should turn the whole Middle East into a parking lot. Thank you.

I like it the way it is but if you change it then definitely have a middle button. Also, I hate this AOL bullshit so enough with the LMAO, LMFAO, LOL, IMHO, etc. I get the LOL one but what the fuck are the rest of these? Just type shit out people.
