I actually believe you're right! Usually for analyze or "rate me" threads I try to think of at least a sentence!


you favorite type of thread by a hair is Opinion threads. you want people to know what you think.
you rarely post in WTF or anime threads

You hit the nail on the head! :)

Just like lightning, your biggest downfall is that you rarely strike the same place twice. By that i mean, you post such a worthy contribution to many threads but you rarely go back to the to follow up.
To improve you newgrounds experience i can only suggest one thing: you have to dedicate yourself to a thread better, it would increase your postcount and people would know the extent of you knowledge on a subject, rather than a jack of all trades personality which you currently employ. Otherwise you are by far one of the most upstanding NG BBS posters.

Thank you very much for the outstanding analysis! It really cheered me up quite a bit to read this. On many levels, you were exactly correct. I rarely do return to a topic I just posted in; but it's a habit I'm trying to break. I do bookmark them, and then return to see if I have been quoted...but that seems to rarely happen now. However, I feel compelled not to post in every thread I see. I'm very prone to follow the rules and contribute correctly. Perhaps I should be a little more loose and increase my posts a bit. Once again, you're an awesome reviewer. Much love,
-Romolo

Dobio going on 14,000 posts, if you read my earlier rant further up the page...

thats 1,750 hours minimum, for you its probably closer to 3,000 hours on newgrounds (125 straight days, or $18,000)

You are truly one of the grandmasters of the internet, your name strikes ph33r into the hearts of n00b and spammers everywhere, but you started out on the BBS as a picture spammer yourself!

you enjoy anime topics, rating threads, and interesting facts.
aside from locked topics, you least common posts are in game console, weapon, religion and movie threads.

Unofrtunatly i cant make any effective suggestions for you as to how to improve your BBS experience. Mabey the best thing i can say is that you should never give up on n00bs, one day they just might turn around and thank you for all your hard work.

Oh, and thank you Dobio, for not deleting this n00b when he gave you so many opportunities ^^

Never! But I will review your posts for you...

Anz, origionally coming to the BBS to fuel you love of flash and become inspired to create great works of art. You now seem to use it to relieve stress by attacking n00bs more than actually helping them. You are always on the BBS, with a daily postcount of at least 11, a popular user definatly, and you actually have alot of influence.

More than half your posts seem to end up in spam, flaming, or in flash threads
you dont seem to post much in Story, movie, song, or weapon threads.

So my question is, why? Why do you find yourself even wasting time on those goofy little new poeple that are only ranting to get a rise out of NG users? My suggestion to you, is to let the mods worry about that sorta stuff and you can stick to genuinly helping out people with real problems. Either that or try to be more creative with your posts, attempt an intellectual tread such as why they waited to stab ceaser in such a historic place, or mental wellbeing of comedians.

Hopefully you have a good day man!

Hahahaha, well, let me point things out.

I joined an anime club, when I was a n00b, which got me to the BLAM club, which made me eventually leave that anime club (ADG).

I don't post in anime threads EVER anymore. So, bleh.

You're off base, but I think your analysis, minus what type of threads I like, was pretty on target.

Oh yeah, and as for picture spamming, well, I created a thread called the "GIF competition", which was basically a place to post all the .gifs I found, and at that point, those type of threads were allowed, so I wasn't really a picture spammer. >:(

yeah unfortunatly it difficult to sum up 14,000 posts in a paragraph, I'm flying blind on this one and i did sample about 50 pages before i posted... 50 pages of 440...

Well, I'm not expecting you to, but you seemed to use my posts in 02 as a gauge, which doesn't make sense, cause that was three years ago, I'm not the same person as I was back then.

That's all. :)

kay...

The_Ass_Clown... what has it been, 3 months... 4 months... and you already have more posts than me? From day one you have shown genuine interest in following the rules of the BBS, you dont overly flame poeple, you offer constructive criticism and you try to avoid lock threads.

You are a clubber, no not the caveman, nor the real life dance clubs. You are a diehard Playstation fan. and actually post in forums other than the general on a regular baisis.

You're favorite threads involve console, club, and WTF threads.
you tend to avoid religion, politics and spam threads.

Wow, just wow. I seriously thought I would be bashing you hardcore (i really did), my first impression was your name, which didn't make me look forward to much. But as i read your posts I found out whan an amazing user you are! I have read about 25 pages of your posts and have not found a single flame, you always respond with a cool, calm, collected approach. You admit when you are wrong or have made a mistake, and apologize for it.

I can honestly say The_Ass_Clown for mod!

You ARE lazy. Your average post is 5 words, barely a complete thought. You flame, you spam, you still are in the n00b stage. Which is to be expected, you have less than 200 posts still.

your favorite threads are spam, sig, and rating threads
you rarely post in political, music or flash threads

this is your longet post:

and it will say its a invalid link then click the back button
then it should work you might need to do it a couple of times.
it worked for me

Isn't that just a bit sad? I'm not saying everyone has to be a heartfelt letter to the pope, but putting some time behind your next posts would be my suggestion as to how you can imporve Newgrounds!

You do have potential, just stop hating everyone so much and stop being in such a hurry, the BBS will still be here tomorrow :)

post 999, I need to go mae an awesome photoshop for my 1000th... cus I'm weird like that :P

really? you should try starting some threads, then can escilate into something so much more, but the definatly take work on the poster's end to keep it going.

and of course thats not the reason why I'm posting 3 times in a row... not me, never.

I make 50 posts a day now, yet my PPD won't update cause I've been away for so long.

you started off on the BBS as a picture spammer, this has receeded slightly.

Why thankyou.

You enjoy flaming far more than you enjoy helping.

Hell yeah

You spend alot more time in other forums as compared to the average user.

Sorry..?

you favorite type of thread is a n00b thread.

I love a laugh.

you least common thread is Anime.

:)

To improve the quality of the BBS i suggest you stop posting in threads that are probably going to be locked.

ooops, i'll be off then

bye!

g'bye.
