Great content, great updates; great everything!

Seems a bit worrisome with the latest-Microsoft-update-making-it-all-impossible messages, but hopefully the fixes really do work when you try to apply them anyway... for me personally this is working fine.

Nice! Good to hear it's still steadily moving upward at least; hopefully passed the break-even point some time back then...?

Seems like us Oldgrounders can never catch a break. A lot of active users hit the limit long ago, but the (slightly) more recent ratio of sent/composed limit, helped reduce message/post length... idk

Technically apparently the Sentbox/Inbox limits were previously combined, so the new limits are actually double the old ones split up. Used to be 3MB total, now 6MB total. Would definitely have been nice with a couple more digits on that limit but... the backup feature's pretty handy at least. Searchable archive too once you unzip it now.

Same! XD Though I blame: lack of time. Time to catch up a little now though...

This would really be great.

New bug/problem:

Newgrounds player can't start, because it says "Newgrounds Player requres the adobe flash plugin" and prompts me to install it. But when I do try installing it, then this mesage appears:

"your microsoft internet explorer browser includes the latest version of the adobe flash"

Excuse me, WTF?!

How to fix it?

Are you maybe trying to download the plugin via the the old browser download page? That might not work anymore. You can find a list of direct links to older Flash player versions at the bottom of this post: https://sonucais.newgrounds.com/news/post/1137244

...and a bundle of other Q&A/solutions. Hope that helps.

This is something we're still working on - there's a planned NG Player update that will hopefully get around the current hurdles in Windows.

Working on Nightmare Cops!

Woo, good to hear. The included file replacement that comes with the installer seems to still be enough with Windows 7 for me, though no longer with Windows 10.

That is what we have all be waiting for. It should be better, and easier to use.
