I actually really agree. Seeing as we have the feed star thingy and friends/social thingy by our account options why not leave it as that? Blog replies.. Forum replies.. We get told that stuff when we come on the ng main page anyway. Why actually clicks that from the Your Feed tab?? Anyone??
Under Judgement being easily accessible/viewable should be a high priority really for this site.

I agree. It would make down voting everything without watching it much easier.
So the meme arrows have made their way to Newgrounds?
Shit, I'm getting old.

Here, in any case.
Never used to see them in this place. Or maybe I wasn't looking hard enough? Still feel like old man.
you think you're old, I don't even know what a meme arrow is and will have to Google it for context here
I also don't know who any of these trending celebrities on Twitter are

They're not "meme arrows", they've been used since the dawn of e-mail (possibly earlier, I don't know) to represent quoted text, the same way that the colon is used here on NG. That's probably why you haven't seen them here, we can just go;
HEY THERE D00D
Instead of;
>HEY THERE D00D
And it creates an actual different font, albeit only slightly lighter. This is the same idea behind 4chan's Greentext, which as the name implies, turns your text green when preceded by a >. 4chan is where many, many people learned about > as representative of quoted text (or implied thought processes), but it certainly didn't "make its way" here recently.

yeah but the context isn't 'forwarded message', it's:
>I did this
>then I did this
>then I did this other thing
>hilarious reaction
and I was mistaken, I have witnessed them before, just not in a thread title, it threw me a little. And I didn't know they were called meme arrows.

I would go into how much I hate the term "meme arrows", but they need an easily referred to handle and that's not my point anyway. It was that if you're calling them "meme arrows" and haven't seen them here before, it doesn't have too much to do with getting old because it's a pretty recently created term.

I see this doing more harm ~ Why should we subject the general viewers of the site to submissions that are likely to be subpar? Shouldn't we be showing them the BEST that newgrounds has to offer?

Then how will the new ones become great/bad? The community decides, after all; the previous site design just had a link to the Portal - no Games or Movies - and that wasn't so bad.

Right. There's a dependency on the community and another on the quality of the submission itself, right?
I guess I'm thinking from the perspective of the casual user ( ie. no interest in collecting B/P points or they may not even have an account). In order to facilitate account creation and long-term use there has got to be some sort of benefit, right? What better benefit would there be than discovering the BEST independent/alternative/creative media on the web?
I honestly don't see why they aren't doing something to make it more visible.
Though you can just hover over the Movies or Games button and you can go to the Classic Portal from there.
It still needs to be more present since the flashes are pretty much the bread and butter of the site. And without them Newgrounds wouldn't really be Newgrounds.

It's on the main page.

(Just for future reference, it is referred to as 'greentext', where it originated on 4chan)

I'm pretty sure you DO get a thing saying you got a review or response.
On the front page it would say if you got any forum responses or blog responses. In that same area it'd also say stuff for reviews and stuff like that as well.

It does - right there in the same spot where it tells you if you have forum or blog replies. Doesn't work with responses to reviews, however.

News to me-- I always just go straight to my profile, never visiting the front page, at all. I just want that shit to be a part of the 'Notifications' button, since that would make a good bit of sense.

You should consider going to the front page more often. I used to do what you do and I ended up missing a bunch of stuff that was on the front page....

It would make sense. But not everything in life ends up making sense.
