The Guide To The Newgrounds Bbs

[Timex247]

Welcome one and all to the Newgrounds BBS.
So, if you wanna be cool, remember these rules:

a. USE SOME GODDAMN GRAMMER. If you use grammer, people with think of you as one fo the more mature or intelligent users of Newgrounds.

b. Do not caps post, photo shop pics of yourself, spam, troll, or post anything that isn't going to make a significant difference.

c. Voice your opinion, but don't over react.

d. Don't make a half assed post. No one cares if you just say. "Lol, rape her." Include some length.

e. Don't be a 8 year old prick and flame. If you are gonna use a come back, have it be unique, intelligent, and witty.

f. Don't post damn annoyance sites, fake sites, or virus sites. Don't be a total duche.

g. Don't ruin other people's fun. If you want to be popular, don't go running around the BBS bashing peoples ideas. Instead, encourage it.

h. Use the golden rule. That's right, if you want to be a good poster, you're gonna have to go back to the basics.

I. Take time to read. Lurk around a little instead of reading 3 posts, and replying, and then leaving.

J. Take time to read the rules. If you start a post, topic, collab, or crew, take time and read the newgrounds rules.

K. Follow the 3 rules of the internet:
No Porn
No Spamming
And No Flaming

L. Take into this consideration:
Is my post/topic making a difference not being on there?
(Yes, mine teaches noobs to stop being noobs.)

Is my post/Topic interesting?
(Somewhat, yes.)

How will other NewGrounder's react?
(Hopefully, in a positive way.)

So, there ya go. The basics of The BBS. Follow these rules, and you'll be as cool as Gagsy or Stamper one day. Maybe even infamous. O_o

Prepare for older users (05-07) to call you a noob with no experience.

[14hourlunchbreak]

I follow all of these said rules. Although I only skimmed through it. Am I a cool kid now?

[MonkeyV]

A revised version of this thread can be found here.

[Sensationalism]

Why do the newest users always make threads like this?

We've got the rules, that's a good enough guide.

At least he was telling us the rules (which we already know) instead of breaking them.

[Sanjay]

No matter how oftern these points are stressed, they sem to have no effect with some BBS users. Nice try though.

[m4x0]

You're telling us what to do, you're a pretty cool guy.

For your imformation sir, At my age of 7, I found Newgrounds. 3 years later, I created a profile, Which was founded in 05. A few years later, I lost my password, resulting in the creation of this account. Besides, why does it matter when you sign up? Only people who are jealous (For some god unknown reason) would even look at the sign up date.
And yes, the NG Rules are still nice, but very little do some people truly use them. Besides, how many people do you see using periods and commas, hmmm?

[thatoneguyfromDD]

Nice guide, although not a lot of people follow it.

[Spaghetti14]

"a. USE SOME GODDAMN GRAMMER. If you use grammer, people with think of you as one fo the more mature or intelligent users of Newgrounds."

HAHAHA.
It's spelled g r a m m a r, and "people will think of you as one OF the more mature or intelligent users"
Hypocrit.

[flashplayer5]

For someone so new to the site that's a pretty good guide, although I wouldn't say it was a "Guide to the BBS", more a "Do this or you'll look like a nub".

Don't tell people to use grammar if you can't even spell the word yourself. And don't give me the "it was a typo" crap because you misspelled it twice >:(

What about me??!?!?!?!

[Porkchop]

did you know that spammers and trolls make some of the more family guy-esque humor? As opposed to the mature users making the Fraiser-style comedy. We need a balance. We cant have just Fraiser or just Family Guy. Its Yin Yang, motherfucker.

Ironic, I thought i was spelt 'GRAMMAR'. Maybe I'm wrong, you being one of the far more mature and intelligent people on Newgrounds of course.

[Dromedary]

You're a noob (altlol) with no experience, or good spelling.

Duche?
