Can anyone fill me in on what's been going down in the Barracks over the last couple of days? I've been fucked for the last couple of days, and it feels good to finally have a day off, especially on one that is so fucking nice.

Sorry civilian, but to join the Elite Guard Barracks you must have at least 2,500 B/P points. Click here to see each badge and it's requirements.

But if you get 500 B/P points, you can try joining the NG Police Department. If they accept you, you can become a Guardsman here.

It seems to me that this game is stolen, however I can't read Russian (on the sites it apparently comes from, as seen at the start of the game). Anyone got a definite source within either of those two sites, or for that matter anywhere else?

Still a lot more movies getting Saved than Blammed. It's silly that instead of saying 'Movies Protected' it says 'Movies Submitted', because in fact the number of movies submitted is both of those figures added together.

Yeah, that's weird. Everyday about 200 Flashes are submitted, but about 130 of them get protected. And a couple of weeks ago it was 200 flashes saved and about 70 Blammed. Good that it changed.

Still, I got a nice amount of Blams yesterday, so I'm pleased with that.

So did I. I think I got 70% of the Blams yesterday, it was great. Now my B/P ratio is 1.407 and going down everyday.

I'm almost at 7,000 Blams now... I'll either get it today or tomorrow. I'm really trying to up my Blams so I can get them to 10k, which will be my second 10k stat.

Cool, two 10k stats should get you very close to EGSC. I'm very close to Sergeant First Class, only 59 points away from it. I should get it tomorrow, along with level 20. Yay!

Damn, it passed. I'm sure it's stolen, I even flagged it but it seems that it didn't help much. Well, can someone PM Wade about it? It's very suspicious.

Now this one was flagged. Great job, everyone!

So... how are the ideas for the Barracks improvement going?

Yeah, but at the moment I'm taking it one rank at a time. It's taken me about 4 days to move from #201 to #200, so it seems like slow progress at the moment. I just passed the guy who was originally at #199 though, so my place in the top 200 B/Pers is secured now.

Yeah, I'll send him a PM. See what he says - it may be legit, but I doubt it.

No, but I've seen him spamming some advertisement crap around the BBS. Don't bother PM'ing Wade about him spamming your inbox, just block him from sending you PM's and leave it at that.

Also, slow down next time, and try and put everything you need to say in one post rather than 3 :)

Sorry Civilian, you need a minimum of 2,500 B/P points (Rank of Private) to join the Barracks.

I suspect, though, that you were only posting to advertise whatever it is exactly that you're trying to advertise. I'd suggest using your news post in your user page for such things.

Als, don't picture spam. Read the BBS rules.

Sorry guys, I can't type very well right now so I might be absent from the forums, but I will still be protecting the portal. I am pretty beat up, just read my blog if you want to know what happened.

LOL, his post was deleted. I suspected it may, as he'd picture spammed in every one of his 9 posts on the BBS, but now I look like a silly billy for replying to him in the first place :P

Oh well, I guess if I hadn't someone else would have.

:(

Guardsman DBlach reporting in sirs! I just finished this week as the number 1 B/P gainer in the NGPD! 300 points in one week my average B/P per day was 43! I'm looking forward to joining the barracks officially if you'll still have me. I am personally so sick of all this whistle crap. I just flagged a ton of abusive reviews most of which got deleted, and i'm still stuck with a garbage whistle. I've been prowling the abusive review thread and listening to the modification of the reviewing spam rule that you won't get or lose points if you flag one, but if they are at least doing that, they should replace everyone who got an auto matic garbage whistle due to this temporary rule (like me!) with a normal one at least. Bcause it is not fair that people who now start flagging abusive reviews on spam submissions just don't receive positive or negative point, where as those before (me again!) still have garbage whistles.

It seems legit from the description and the fact he took the time to write all of that information in his description

Things seem to be going a lot better at the Barracks when i wasn't around :(

Well I'M BACK!!!!

It seems that the moderation is divided on this. Malachy speaks for those who don't want this rule enforced with penalty, while tigerkitty (and possibly others who follow bob) wants everyone to have a Garbage whistle if they flag shit reviews like "Why the fuck r u submitting this shit?!?!?!" on spam movies. (But I think saying "Go fucking kill yourself you fucking sack of shit!!!!111!!!!!!11!!!" won't lead to any reduction, and some of the mods, I think, said that you'd get points for flagging it). NEVR had a discussin with Malachy about it last night, at Rage's.

but if they are at least doing that, they should replace everyone who got an automatic garbage whistle due to this temporary rule (like me!) with a normal one at least.

I don't think anyone short of Tom or Wade can, within the current system, look at the rankings and find who got Garbage during the period that the rule was strictly enforced and manually manipulate the Whistle points to get everyone (including my alt, KittyKrew-Moderator) back to Normal or better. Tom or Wade probably could, in the sense that the system would give them the power to do so, but the fact is that they don't have the time to, with Tom working on Castle Crashers and Wade having to almost run the site alone (from the perspective of the user-related stuff).

Bcause it is not fair that people who now start flagging abusive reviews on spam submissions just don't receive positive or negative point, where as those before (me again!) still have garbage whistles.

I know, I know... But use your judgment correctly, and you'll be back to Normal in a week or two of good flagging.

It feels like i have been, but now i'm worried that i've dug myself into such a deep hole it will be impossible to get out of, and if i stay at garbage, i can't join the barracks officially and that would be a major bummer.

Sorry to double post but this is stolen from here

There are plenty of Barracks members who are willing to help you out - Joshiwa has already offered, and SlashFirestorm has helped people out in the past, and probably wouldn't mind if you sent him a PM asking for help. Best thing you can do is keep a positive frame of mind and keep flagging, and you'll get there.

Thanks for the advice, i have already talked to joshiwa and now i'm talking to soulmaster71. Thanks for all the help sirs!

Sir i dont want to accuse people of stealing but this looks strange http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/43 5915 as the website called arcadetown, and the description a bit vague and its his only game.

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/43 5948

I don't see why doesn't that yoshi dude just remove everyone from his Portal Buddy list...

Unless he was full of shit when he said he was quitting the Portal Spam, and just meant he would not submit any more himself... but still encourages it.

I really doubt Wade's message passed.

Sergeant First Class Nuts reporting in!

I got promoted twice today! First, I got level 20. I'd much rather having this pipe than that weird piece of metal.

And a few hours ago, I became a Sergeant First Class! Now I have a total voting power of 7.98. The problem is that now I'm on the 1,500 point gaps. Classic screen-shot at the end.

Congratulations, it must be very hard in your position to pass other users. I climb about 5 ranks a day, sometimes less. But it gets harder and harder, before I could climb about 10 ranks a day.

*Sigh*, I can't believe that. Missed out on yet another blam.

And yeah, I reckon yoshi77777 was full of shit when he said he would quit spamming. It's probably just because Wade was online and he was doing some cocksucking. Even if he does quit, I'd wager he'll only quit on his man and continue on an alt.

Cool, I started on level 20 after the redesign, so I'm quite fond of that level.

Hurr hurr, the 1,500 point gaps aren't so bad. Not compared to THE 2,000 GAPS!

Congratulations, it must be very hard in your position to pass other users. I climb about 5 ranks a day, sometimes less. But it gets harder and harder, before I could climb about 10 ranks a day.

There's a few hundred points between each user ahead of me right now. It's getting steeper, too.
