You know, I don't care if Gooch hates this thread or even calls it pointless. That's just his opinion. He doesn't like a sort of thread like this and that's fine with me. I find him a very good mod on the NG BBS.

Maybe so but his reasons to it are of the dumbest I've ever heard, my 6 year old cousin phrases why she doesn’t like some thing better than him. And right now based on that logic I’m entitled to stating my personal opinion of him as a person.

Gooch is actually has a very nice personality when it comes to chats. Not too long ago I happened to run into the chatboards with him, asked him what he was doing here said he could use a little break from the BBS boards with alll the daily dipshits we get. Asked him how life's been. Responds its slow but moving none the less. Asked among some other things trying not to sound anxious afterall I had never conversed with a mod before. How did he feel about mod status is it really all the hype and he wittly responds its like having twins except ones a boy and the others a girl yet they have the same package. I laughed, wished him the best, gave me his regards and parted. Nice guy but whatever reason he has against this thread must be just, I have heard of mods ( although rarely) abusing their status to settle an "old score" but I don't thing gooch is that kind of person. Anyways I'm in the 300's however I'm in #394 and I don't know if Denvish will add me to the list. If he doesn't no big deal. Happy hunting everyone.

Bad luck, you need to be inside the top 300. Denvish has a stat pull done by Liljim, I think, so you'll be put on the list, the update after you hit #300 or better.

Good, call me if you ever need it done again.

Who's the MO today?

I'm sure you know I could take that in a number of ways ( MO stands for several things ), please rephrase or explain current definition to avoid conflict.

I see, well thank you. Damn....means I'll probably have to get to porperszhick ( oh thats spelled so wrong) but hey I got time. I'm in no rush while some people would kill to jump just one spot. Oh well.....thats part of my life, half is wasted, a quarter of it is question and the other quarter is actually doing something. Wonder what Denvish is doing right now......I bet he's going to a movie.

Okay, I guess now that I read through these responses in light of people knowing that I hate this club, here's my explanation behind it.

Basically, I view it as another blam/protect club. However, i do understand it's not entirely that sort of thing. You guys do keep track of your progress through what you've done through the day, and I have no problem with that.

My problem is that there's some cases where you guys do end up pointing out a flash that's going to be an obvious blam. Even if it's too obvious, don't post about it telling everybody to vote an automatic zero on it. I still considering that a form of mass voting, and we all know that it's frowned upon around here.

That, and I don't like the whole *Salutes* stuff going on, too. That just seems to bring it a little too over the edge, and creeps me out a bit.

So yeah, that's my opinion of it all. Hate me, love me, like me if you will. I stick by my opinions.

---

I'd like to make a quick comment to you, -Gooch-, as I appreciate you coming here to tell us your likes and dislikes about the club and wish to respond to what you said.

The club is based on the B/P ranking system, which necessitates B/Ping to be a member, but yes, we are not focused on it. We chat about our progress, but we don't gang up on flash or anything like past B/P clubs. Besides, I never would have created it if I didn't think it was unique.

My problem is that there's some cases where you guys do end up pointing out a flash that's going to be an obvious blam. Even if it's too obvious, don't post about it telling everybody to vote an automatic zero on it. I still considering that a form of mass voting, and we all know that it's frowned upon around here.

I do not condone that at all and never intended that to be part of the club when I created it. I have told people time after time to not do so throughout this thread. This isn't, wasn't, and never will be a club that condones mass-voting. The only type of voting I condone is to watch the entire flash and vote FAIRLY, regardless of who made the flash. This includes groups like the Barney Bunch, etc. We are a club against mass-voting, and we fight it by giving the flash proper votes, as that takes away the skewed votes that mass-voters make.

As far as posting malicious flash, I am against that, too. It even says so in our FAQ (#8). The only thing I want people to submit here is stolen flash, as that is not always obvious. People provide proof by posting the original and the stolen flash, which allows us to have grounds to whistle it. So yes, It is stupid for people to post about malicious flash, which is why I'm against it.

Hopefully you understand my position here, as I am on the same page with you. I do chastise anyone that posts "OMG BLAM THIS" here, so understand that I am trying to enforce anti-mass-voting as much as I can.

That, and I don't like the whole *Salutes* stuff going on, too. That just seems to bring it a little too over the edge, and creeps me out a bit.

Haha...we dumbed it down since we started...It's more a sign of respect of those that have taken the time to B/P and get the ranks they have more than anything. Insane, yes. Harmful, no.

So yeah, that's my opinion of it all. Hate me, love me, like me if you will. I stick by my opinions.

I'm glad you came to voice your opinions, and thank you for doing so. Hopefully you understand what we stand for a little more as well.

And I will reply as best I can to prove my point in the case.

Basically, I view it as another blam/protect club. However, i do understand it's not entirely that sort of thing. You guys do keep track of your progress through what you've done through the day, and I have no problem with that.

So far so good

My problem is that there's some cases where you guys do end up pointing out a flash that's going to be an obvious blam. Even if it's too obvious, don't post about it telling everybody to vote an automatic zero on it. I still considering that a form of mass voting, and we all know that it's frowned upon around here.

Now see, that's exactly what we hate when people do. When ever any one even hinted us of voting a movie in a certain way we denied and said we would only vote according to the movie's quality, we have never, not once done anything that can be considered as mass-voting, if you were too look closely in our pages you would see any one who wanted us to protect or blam a flash regardless of quality was shot down, I would bet my mother you wouldn't find a case in which we agreed to that.

That, and I don't like the whole *Salutes* stuff going on, too. That just seems to bring it a little too over the edge, and creeps me out a bit.

Some people do get carried away with it but I for hardly ever even say that. Plus it's a token of honor, honor to the hard work that person is doing to keep spam and mass-voting out of the flash portal.

So yeah, that's my opinion of it all. Hate me, love me, like me if you will. I stick by my opinions.

As long as you read my response and take is seroiusly.

Good arguments, but you're a nice guy I think.

Less than an hour until I submit my greatest flash ever. I doubt it'll pass, but...lol, if people vote more on humor than graphics, it might...

Today's been kinda slow for a Friday. :-(

Okay, after having a talk with -Speedy- on AIM, I guess I should owe you guys an apology. Here's the story behind it:

You see, it's a common case of mistaken identity. The club I actually have a beef with is the Newgrounds Police H.Q. That was the club I was viewing as a fancy blam club, not this one. So, in this case of misdirected hostility, I apologize. It's just I hadn't seen that club posted in in a long while, I mistook it as this one.

So yeah, sorry. I'm still a little creeped out about the *Salutes* thing, though.

Anyways, carry on. :)

Oh, and I don't have anything against the mafia to clear things up. That was obviously some other moderator, not me.

I can understand your mistake and I am very glad it was only a mistake, I would also like to say I'm sorry because that RG thread ticked me off, I suppose you meant the NGPD then as well. Should you decide to correct that we would be delighted.

So yeah, sorry. I'm still a little creeped out about the *Salutes* thing, though.

Some people take it too far even for me but just keep in mind not every one does.

Anyways, carry on. :)

Thank you sir. ( see? saying sir or saluting once in a while might even pass as good manners )

Oh, and I don't have anything against the mafia to clear things up. That was obviously some other moderator, not me.

Just for the record, that RG thread did have some one mentioning the mafia, I guess that was a confusion, unfortunately there is no shortage of mods that hate the mafia as well, FUNKbrs would set a great example for that...

Understood completely. Actually, I have spoken with many people in the NGPD HQ as well about stopping that. The person currently in charge over there, TailsPrower, doesn't like it, either. It's that some people there find it hard to listen. I understand your sentiments, as I and the rest of us here have the SAME sentiments. :-)

So yeah, sorry. I'm still a little creeped out about the *Salutes* thing, though.

Haha...so be it.

Thanks again for your reply!

Colonel SlashFirestorm calls Private First Class Peregrinus on his phone.

"...Operator," says Peregrinus.

"Peregrinus," replies SlashFirestorm.

Grinning, he replies, "Goddamn, it's good to hear your voice, sir."

"We need an exit..."

"Got one ready! Clubs and Crews, by the NG Mafia HQ."

Colonel SlashFirestorm, Colonel EagleRock, and Lieutenant Colonel Major_punk head towards the phonebook at that location.

-----

"The trace was completed," said a voice.

"They're not out...yet," said another voice.

-----

The three Elite Guards get down to the corner and to the phone booth.

"You first, Slash," says Colonel EagleRock.

SlashFirestorm enters the phonebooth. A vagrant BBS user looks on as SlashFirestorm vanishes from the BBS and returns to the Elite Guard Barracks.

Lieutenant Colonel Major_punk is about to answer it himself when he says, "Look, EagleRock, something's been bothering me, but I'm afraid of what it would mean if I say it..."

Colonel EagleRock just looks on, puzzled.

"Everything Supreme Commander Nimmer has told me has become true...everything but this."

As he changes his mind, he walks into the booth and picks up the phone. He turns and sees Brigadier General Ghost_Phantom aim a gun at the phone booth. As Major_punk is pulled back into the Barracks, the telephone is destroyed.

Major_punk sits up as Peregrinus stares at him.

"EagleRock!" yells Major_punk.

"What the hell just happened?" questions Peregrinus.

"It was the agent, Ghost_Phantom! Send me back!"

"I...I can't!"

Colonel EagleRock stares at Brigadier General Ghost_Phantom as he approaches, smirking.

"So, Mr. Marks...we meet again..."

SlashFirestorm, Major_punk, and Peregrinus all watch on the monitor.

"Dammit, run, EagleRock!" yells Peregrinus.

Colonel EagleRock gets the same thought in his head, but just as he is about to do so, he spins around and stares at Ghost_Phantom right in the eye.

"What is he DOING???" yells Major_punk.

After a half-grin and a pause, SlashFirestorm answers, "He is beginning to believe..."

EagleRock and Ghost_Phantom stare at each other for a second. Then they both lunge at each other, Blam Pistols in hand. They each unload their pistols until they land near each other, pistols at each other's heads.

"You're...empty..," teases Ghost_Phantom.

"...So are you," replies EagleRock.

After a pause, EagleRock gets up, flipping in the air many times. Then, as if all at once, they both attack each other, fists blazing, punches and counters aplenty. Ghost_Phantom manages to get a staggering blow to EagleRock, but is quickly countered with a punch to the face that breaks his sunglassess off.

Taking the glasses off, he scowls and says, "I'm going to enjoy watching you DIE, Mr. Marks."

He then attacks EagleRock voraciously, beating him up as if he was a rag doll. Blood starts to come out of his mouth both in the Barracks and in the BBS.

Ghost_Phantom throws him into a spam thread nearby.

As Ghost_Phantom holds EagleRock in a headlock, they both see a moderator's thread deleter rolling through.

"Do you hear that Mr. Marks? That...is the sound of inevitability. That...is the sound of...your death. Goodbye...Mr. Marks."

Just as he was choking, EagleRock barely says to Ghost_Phantom, "My name...is...EAGLEROCK!"

He then manages to push Ghost_Phantom in the air and slam him back on the thread. EagleRock runs out of the way of the spam deleter just in time for it to capture Ghost_Phantom as it rolls by.

-----

Back in the Barracks, Peregrinus yells at SlashFirestorm.

"Moderators! How long till they get here?"

SlashFirestorm replies, "Five...maybe six minutes. Peregrinus...charge the firewall."

"You can't use that thing till EagleRock's out!" says Major_punk.

SlashFirestorm replies, "Don't worry, he's going to make it."

-----

EagleRock sees Ghost_Phantom come back at him just after the spam deleter flattened him, so he turns to run. He runs down the forum and sees Dream_of_Duke using a phone. As he runs by, he grabs the phone from him.

Dream_of_Duke yells, "Hey! I was talking to hot_and_charming!"

EagleRock takes the phone, realizes he has to turn it on, then does so. He phones up Peregrinus immediately.

"Peregrinus, get me the hell out of the BBS!"

Peregrinus replies, "Got a patch on an old exit, near the WWE Thread!"

EagleRock hangs up and walks into an old pathway towards the WWE Thread. He finds himself climbing through staircases and eventually finds the door towards the phone.

-----

Just when he reached the door, Moderators start banging on the doors of the Elite Guard Barracks.

"Here they come," says SlashFirestorm, holding the button to activate the firewall in his hand. "He's GOING to make it."

-----

Just as EagleRock opens the door to the room, he finds Ghost_Phantom staring at him, blam pistol in his hand.

Blam.

EagleRock looks down and realizes he's been shot. Just then, Ghost_Phantom hits him 5 more times in the chest.

Colonel EagleRock falls back against the wall in the hallway, and slowly slides down. He then breathes his last breath.

All of the Elite Guards in the Barracks look at the monitor in shock.

Ghost_Phantom checks for a pulse and finds none. To himself, he says, "Goodbye, Mr. Marks."

Major_punk thinks for a minute, and realizes something.

"I realize what's going on. I'm not afraid anymore. Supreme Commander Nimmer told me that the One Elite Guard that would lead us to victory is the one that we would trust in, no matter what. I trust in you..."

The rest of the Elite Guards listen, and then lower their heads as if to say they believe, but are not so sure anymore.

It is at this point that EagleRock jumps to life. His eyes open and he sees the BBS differently than ever before. Before his eyes are the code behind the whole BBS, and he can see a person by what he B/P's not how he would appear normally.

"You're right," says SlashFirestorm. "Now, EagleRock, get the hell up!"

EagleRock stands up and looks at Ghost_Phantom, who was walking away. He quickly realizes that EagleRock is alive and spins and shoots the rest of his Blam Pistol clip at him.

"...No," says EagleRock. The blammuntion slows to a halt, as if EagleRock had complete control over the BBS. He then looks at one of the pieces of blammunition, and the rest fall to the ground. Ghost_Phantom takes a step back.

"...HOW?" yells Peregrinus.

"He is..," replies SlashFirestorm, "...an Elite Guard Brigadier General."

Cogratulations on making Brigadier General, EagleRock, Sir. I love the Matrix Trilogy and your parody of it. Pretty sure I've nailed this, tell me if anything is wrong:

Peregrinus = Tank
EagleRock (you) = Neo
SlashFirestorm = Morpheus
Major_punk = Trinity (LOL)
Nimmer = Oracle
Ghost_Phantom = Agent Smith (verified by himself)
Moderators = Sentinels
Dream_of_Duke/hot_and_charming = Civilians (seen and unseen)
______
As for you Colonel Firestorm, I thought your submission/co-author was pretty funny (and of course all true), I gave it a 4.

*Salute* to you both.

Peregrinus = Tank
EagleRock (you) = Neo
SlashFirestorm = Morpheus

All correct.

Major_punk = Trinity (LOL)

Sort of. He was in the places where Trinity was, but I removed all that "I love you" bullshit. Also, I split up some of his lines so that the smarmy part wasn't all him.

Nimmer = Oracle
Ghost_Phantom = Agent Smith (verified by himself)
Moderators = Sentinels

Yes.

Dream_of_Duke/hot_and_charming = Civilians (seen and unseen)

Partially true. They are both civilians, but one is seen, and one is nonexistant. Hence why I had to turn on the phone when I stole it.

*Salute* to you both.

*salutes*

Forgive me Colonel. I hope you didn't take that the wrong way. I wasn't laughing at YOU personally, just the role Brigadier General EagleRock cast you in. I know that scene only involved the 3 of them, and he rewrote the part to fit you (as he said, removing all the mooshy crap).

If my flash passes, I will be overjoyed.
If it doesn't, I'll stick it on putfile so you all can watch it anytime you want. :-P
