Newgrounds isnt as cool anymore

[JeremysFilms]

What happened to newgrounds. it used to be so much cooler. there's less participation and more drive for money! Game companies are more interested advertising games with newgrounds than personal hobbyists are in making stuff.
There's not even a large number of front page madness games.
The forums aren't as cool anymore either there are less CONSISTENT regulars like there used to be.

FUCKKKK

Newgrounds was never cool.

[HighWayStar365]

Most older users say it left about '07. And I have to agree.

I was using this site LONG before I signed up.

Well come on, nobody's perfect. Either suggest what you want changed back to site admins or start a new site if you think it's so easy. NG obviously needs money to stay competitive with all the worse, mass-marketed sites, especially in an economic downturn where less people are spending time relaxing online.

Thanks for being original.

Hey guys, let's reminisce about how anything today sucks and everything back 2, 10, 100 years ago was better. Seriously, shit really hasn't changed as much as you think.

It's a website chill out, you could always go somewhere else?

[Digital-Terror]

It changes over time. It'll eventually experience a golden age, I suppose in about 3 years.

Except I do kind of miss the moving and bigger sigs, and having dashes and stuff in our names and being able to change them on a whim.

[firemaker60]

Old people move out, new people move in, and trends and subjects flow in with them.

It's just a cycle that everything has to go through, and the cycle of Newgrounds just has not completed its course yet.

[Col-Sandchez]

Newgrounds was never cool. However, I miss the older days. The days of pre-redesign.

[DudeGoofyGuy]

I'm a regular. But I'm only starting to learn Flash. So give me a bit. :(

[AniMetal]

Now think about how much cooler it'll be when I leave.

Your a punk

[TimeParadoxPenguin]

I agree. The website has undergone a lot of changes, but times do change.

Well animators want to be paid for their hard work, plus it gives newgrounds more attention. I mean saying that you get a prize for something gets you more attention and better work.

There's not even a large number of front page madness games.

Well Madness is mainly a movie, so I don't think that many people will be making games.

The forums aren't as cool anymore either there are less CONSISTENT regulars like there used to be.

Not to be a dick or anything, but you're from 05 with 1,520 post. I mean it looks like you didn't spend that much time in the forums to me.

I read a lot. It's been my homepage since way back and therefore I've hung out here a whole lot. I just barely posted.

Newgrounds was cool?

Well, NG is being taken over by a new generation. Get used to it.

[Toastman7007]

Newgrounds is always cool.

I'm with this guy, normally it isn't the site that changed, but the people.
Sounds like a lot of people need to take off the rose-tinted gasses.

[killerjeff]

Newgrounds was the best during 2002-2006.

[Eggys]

Yeah, it's kind of been dying slowly this whole year. Get all the advertisements out of my face already.

Just shut the hell up. Shut the hell up, and go away, you unfunny troll.
