Is NG going to be down all day then?
Hell, 8am - 8am is alright, so long as I can deposit my experience every day, I'm happy.
More or less.
well 8am-8pm isn't that bad
at least i can get experience tomorrow
WOO go Newgrounds stickin' it to the man!
the blackout is a great idea
it'll really put the point across to everyone that comes on here when they see that ng is blacked out

Might as well go all the way. People won't really get the full force of the impact of not having a Newgrounds if they can just dance around it. At least take the BBS off as well.

Fuck. I had no idea about any blackout, but that's awesome there's going to be one in protest of the SOPA mongoloids. Who else is participating?
SOPA Sucks....the government needs to lose a lot of its control

As far as blacking out, Wikipedia and Reddit are the only ones I know so far. Google is doing something for it but it's not blackout.

I think this bill is total bullshit. It's never going to pass, stuff like this never passes because of us. We want to and will defend our sites.

Lol I'm surprised this comment wasn't made sooner.
But Tom, if Newgrounds is down where will I get my fix of male reproductive organ related jokes and poorly photoshoped photos of children with too many Apple computers?! Where!
It will show the impact to the people that use the site regularly, but in the eyes of the government Newgrounds being offline wont do much, if anything. Sites like google, facebook, youtube and twitter will make the government shit in their pants. Basically any site that is used for communication will really hold an impact on the government itself. Its really showing the users what would happen if the front page was gone for 12 hours
WHAT?! No NEWGROUNDS XP on Wednesday ?!?!

I am very glad Newgrounds is participating in the blackout movement. If the SOPA makes it through, peoPle are going to be pissed. We have the right!!!
And even if it DOES make it through, there are ways to bypass server restrictions... Like Ultrasurf. Although, i have no idea what methods they would choose.
Screw SOPA... :/
