Speaking of Christmas, nothing outright rulebreaking, but it's this guy again... with the garbage sounds and the terrible art. Granted, it's slightly better on the art end, but the "music" is still that crap he pastes into midi, looks like. I reviewed him last time and he "doesn't want to use music from NG". Jesus Christ.

If it's not rule-breaking, then there's no need to report it. I talked to this guy a while back about his "show and tells" (or, 'speed paints' to the rest of us), and he doesn't seem to want to stop submitting, or change much about them. I suppose he'll improve with practice. ... ,':|

For now, he's ok to submit, so vote whatever your heart desires.

I wonder if he'll eventually get to the point like those shovelware submitters and start filling the portal with two a day. Shared more because I was annoyed by the fact that he essentially refused a viable option of improving his work. Suppose he'll just keep getting another one of my strong suggestions in the review box every submission. I'm quite surprised stuff like this is getting through now.

It's going one way or another. I voted so let's see what happens...

It's a broken game, so it's what the people love and will pass with flying colours. I got rid of this abomination now. Way too bad to give the Nintendo lawyers a chance to awake from their slumber to knock on Mr. Fulps door again.

I know this account has had all its stuff previously deleted hence why they currently only have 1 submission, this one. I could've sworn they were on MY list, alas they were not but alas they are now.

Well damn, that's one less blam I'll be getting. Kidding. Not like half the users actually look at flashes lately.

What about these two? I'm sure you've seen, but the first one is a non-working alpha. Second one is the same buggy game with a menu applied, essentially. I know that reuploads of the exact same flash are delete-worthy. What about having two versions of the same game where virtually nothing was changed? Just trying to get a feel of the exact policies here. It's been a long time since I've frequented the barracks, and the portal has changed a lot.

I got rid of the first one, since the second one actually kind of works and is just a straight upgrade of the first with the menu, an actual description and such.

Voted appropriately. There's been a rash of these lately. Swear they're trying to catch us slipping.

@Exedor and @Asandir, I wanted to commend you. You keep this place clean and you keep your humor. You have no idea how thankful I am to have competent mods around. Nine years ago, stolen/malicious crap had about a 50% chance of getting through, but with you two on the job, not a snowball's chance in hell. And @gamejunkie and @DeftonesFan665, you do a great job of helping too.

Now, just gotta get that silver whistle.

Mods, is it safe to say batches of abusive flash reviews can be reported here? There isn't really another place to do so now that Rage's thread is locked.

I'm not a mod, but I don't think it would be something to do. Rage's thread was locked for a reason.

Nah, just another incompetent oldie popping in from time to time. I'll get there, though. I just wanted to say how thankful I am that this place is the way it is now. There was a time when we worried about mods coming down on us for our policies, or worried about it basically being a gentleman's club where we waved our badges around in dick-measuring competitions, but seeing it now is almost enough to bring tears to my eyes. I couldn't be more proud.

It was, but that was because mass amounts of people were abusing it for whistle points, not because they were actually all that concerned with keeping NG clean.

Agreed! :)

No thread is necessary. Art and reviews can still be reported by clicking a button:
- Art: you click the flag symbol above the image.
- Reviews, you click the 'Abusive' button underneath the review: [ + ] [ - ] [ ! ] <--- That one.
- Audio: Report it in the Audio Portal Clean Up thread: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1375322/1
- Flash & Games: report them here (obviously). :)

If you find one abusive review, go to their account and check the other reviews. Often, they'll have others that are abusive, too.

You don't know that for sure, though. It could be either one, or perhaps both scenarios for someone. Either way, if we let people post links to abusive reviews here, we would have people coming in who don't give a shit about what we do and only want free whistle points. It never was a good idea and it never will be. If users want a better whistle they need to actually earn it, not get spoon fed whistle points.

Thanks EDM, you do a fine job yourself.
Now, first things second. You send a PM with a link to the abusive reviews to everyone you know that wants to up their Whistle status. Got to give some of the good guys a chance to get their whistle stats up. Then the following day PM BrenTheMan and give him the link and he'll most likely mass delete them like he did with those 2 previous guys reported here.

You do what he said. You just don't admit it.

Actually, You all flag them all via the [ ! ] buttoon and we review mods remove them. No PM's necessary. I removed over 100 today. I've banned 5 people in the last day or so because ...

Because they left reviews like this guy: http://johnnyfivepunch.newgrounds.com/reviews/movie

I will remove these reviews and ban this guy *ahem* tomorrow morning. Since, I have a headache and need to crash into bed. (Seriously)

@Exedor @gamejunkie @deftonesfan665, not quoting because that would be a needlessly long post and I just finished wrapping Christmas presents, typing with one hand. Thank you very much for the kind words and advice.

Exedor, I was already aware of the '!' button, but the extra clarification brought a smile to my face. Show's you're patient -- definitely the right guy for the job here. I know I ask a lot of questions. I was simply inquiring as I wasn't exactly sure how the whistle system worked, i.e. how many flags it took for an abusive review to appear in your queue. A few years back, I think it took more than one because a lot of people reported flagging reviews like "gay" and going from normal to garbage after a few days. They may have been exaggerating.

I'm hoping I'm able to stick around the Barracks long enough to help make a difference. School can get in the way of the time I have for NG and sadly often does. This site has been dear to me long since before I signed up. I'm always happy to do what I can to help keep it clean.

Thanks for the tips! I'm off to check the UJ for a bit and relax.
