Just wanted to let you know as soon as I ranked up I went back to fair voting, but i understand if you still reject me.

Since it was a hard choice for me to decide on whether you should be a member or not I will let the leader of the NGDD AnalPenguinFarming
decide your faith here.

You're very smart Pinoyguy75 for going back to fair voting because as far as i know you voting unfairly was told about to WadeFulp and there was a lot of discussion about you have your Blams and Saves being put back to 0.

Voting unfairly is something you never want to do especially just for stats. You may have been inspired to do so by NewGrounds Mod life but it's really not a smart choice especially if your stats mean a lot to you.

AnalPenguinFarming should be back this Friday so expect an answer about your application on that day.

Ok thats fine, but to be fair "saving whoring" is just as bad as voting 0 on everything, albeit saved flashes can be removed, but that being said i'm not the only one to commit this crime and i'm not the only one who will admit to it (maybe stupid enough to make a post about it LoL) so having my count reset seems extreme without reseting others (unless thats happened...). BUT... LoL i have reformed my voting and will end this before it becomes a rant or plea however you may see it. Thanks for the chance and listening.

I've found a tiny little bit of connectivity through a local library's wireless connection so I figured I would throw in my two cents about the issue:

Voting for stats is definitely wrong, but at times everyone is guilty of it. But posting your thoughts about it in your blog is just common stupidity my friend. The Portal Department is a serious Department here, and that sort of thing is looked down upon by ANYONE on NG.

Unfortunately though, I'm going to have to reject you from the Newgrounds Department of Defense. I apologize for not being able to accept you, but this was my decision in the end...so flame me to hell for it, but I made the decision.

This is one of the few times where my rejection of a member CANNOT be argued by other members, so I apologize to all of you, but this is the final word.

Yea, well that came to be expected, so... yea. thanks for the consideration and it is stupid, but this is the internet and i don't really have anything to hide on ng (as far my activities on NG go). So... I guess... i'll cya on the flip side, w/e that means.

I have seen you around the BBS and i have seen plenty of your posts!

You will be put on a 10 day probation period where you will be monitored very carefully and even after the probation you will still be monitored. You will probably not want to mess up in your 10 day probation period as no one does!

I know. Gu-rrilla already reminded me of that.

Congratulations On Your Club As Well! I hope It Works Out!

Yes, I hope so. I know there are many Boxing lovers out here in Newgrounds.

***A Little Note To youngblood26***

- I don't really care about your B/P rank because B/P is unrelated to posting!
-You may have a pretty good amount of posts but don't think having around 3000 posts is that good. I mean its good but i don't really care how high it is as long as it has what the requirements ask for!

Well, thanks for the clarification but I am just explaining and doing my part but I will do any of my accomplishments on the BBS Department.

All right I think it is time for me to get more active. I've solved most of the problems I had in life, so now is the time to solve the ones here. I apologize for not being able to be here for deciding Pinoyguy's fate, all I can say now that I do agree with APF on this. And for the comp I may get in late, since the test week coming next week.
And is anyone else but me getting really hyped for the June competition?

You can't join in whilst it's going. If you want to join, PM me now and you can decide to start reviewing whenever you want throughout the contest.

DarkSolider is still my Deputy throughout this two weeks - just in case I lose this excellent piece of hope of internet, but Short I just wanted to let you know that you can add MrFinland to the contest list anyway - even if he doesn't get any reviews.

Yeah I added him to the list. Anyone can enter, even if they don't get any reviews in throughout the contest... they just won't do so well.

Just wanted to drop by a bit and let you know I'll be busy this week due to the upcoming final exams, I hope I'll pass although I'll probably flunk foreign language.

well good luck on that..
I just finished them
my first semester on the University... yep, it was hard

and good luck on foreign language... =D

ok... now I will be a little more active here... now that I finally have vacations... XD

I've submitted random crap that all surprisingly got above a 2.00 on my alt

Hey, that's totally fine. Actually, I just got done with an English project that was hanging around my neck for a month and a half; I do believe that I've now had enough of the Harlem Renaissance for a few years. I used to be pretty good with foreign languages though. Spanish was always one of my best grades Freshman and Sophomore years of high school, two years ago now, and learning new words was always interesting to me. Wonder if I still have any of that skill with languages?

Submitting crap really makes NewGrounds a better place doesn't it?

I think i sent you a pm on that Alt once...if only i could find it.

Yeah, SupraAddict, I don't mind you having an alt but submitting crap on your alt is just as bad as doing it on your main account. I don't want to see that again and I can guarantee something will happen that you won't like if we catch you out again.

I know I cannot kick you out but the leaders, including your department head, will not be impressed and will kick you out or punish you somehow. No need to defend yourself, that was just a warning and nothing will happen to you this time. Conversation closed. I don't want to hear anyone say "He's right, Supra, don't do it again". He already knows and it doesn't need to be reinforced into his head.

Oh and guys, new song! This was made in a jazz/funk band I'm in (NG band).

I can't remember that good, but if he is in my Department I promise that if I ever see that happen again, a kick-out will be guaranteed, since that it strictly against the Portal Department guidelines. That alt will be put on special surveillance by me, so you will be on a tight leash. Then again if you are not on my Dept, I recommend for the other leaders to do the same thing

A lovely song, I liked it a lot, the whole melody was great.

He's currently on the "Honorably Discharged" list on the NGDD member list but I'm sure that if he continues he'll probably be taken off that list and possibly be put on the "Dishonorably Discharged due to idiocy" list.

I know that what he did doesn't fit the description of the "Dishonorably Discharged due to idiocy" but I'm sure we could have a special agreement if he continues to submit "Crap" to the portal.

SupraAddict, don't take it like i am trying to get rid of you. I'm only trying to make the NGDD and NewGrounds a better place. If you do happen to submit crap to the portal again then we really have no choice but to give you a punishment.

---John---

Id quite like to sign up as an "audio defender"... something like that. I think I have the right stats but I review alot.

Can i join the audio department?

I'm not stating it was spam, or Kitty Krew shit, I am just saying it is deemed crap by my standards. Apparently other people like them due to the score I received on them. Maybe you should watch them before staking me out like that!
I don't see how that is breaking any rules.

Oh, and I'm a little surprised that you don't know which department I am. For a dept. leader, you aren't very organized. And last I heard, I was under Shortmonkey's dept. last time I knew, but he quit and returned so I don't fucking know anymore!

He's got a point everyone. Did anyone check his flashes before falsley accusing him? Short? Dark? Sorry guys I don't mean to call you out in front of the entire NGDD, but you need to understand, and hopefully apologize to Supra. Those flashes weren't great quality compared to today's standards, but they weren't bad at all. The one game had some talented animations for a simple "stick" based flash.

It's a good thing we're staying strict, but I don't want to lose members over it, especially some of the newer and more dedicated members. Hopefully, Supra, you can get past the whole misunderstanding and stay with us.

The reason i didn't even bother to check them out was because he called them "Crap" and I'm not so sure why anybody should bother checking out a flash espiecially when the Author calls it crap. On the voting panel voting option 0 says "Blam This Piece Of Crap" and I'm sure most people will click that unless the Author obviously doesn't say its crap and the flash doesn't happen to be crap.

I hope you understood where I was going with this AnalPenguinFarming but i won't take it further as I shouldn't have to.

For the apology, i find it needless to do as he clearly called his flash movies "crap" and if you or anyone else understood where i was going with this then you'll understand why i find it needless to apologize.

Yes im a noob but i would sriously like to join. I will be a hard worker and be a good person as long as im here plz consider it

The Audio Department Has No Department Head So I Guess I Will Have To Decide :D

Hello sirtom93!

By Audio Defender i think you mean you wish to join the "Audio Department"?

Well then, your audio seems to be alright and some of them i enjoyed but altogether they were alright.

You do have a lot of Audio reviews and that's a good thing and they do seem to be helpful to audio artists that take a look at the reviews they got on their entries.

So, you seem worthy of being in the Audio Department Of The Newgrounds Department Of Defense.

I'll recap the Audio Department Summary Now:

The job of the NGDD Audio Department is to help monitor the threads being posted in the Audio Forum as well as reviewing other audio submissions in an effort to help other audio artists. The members in the Audio Department should also become familiar with the creation of BGM&E/VO for use in flash animations.

Requirements: 1 passed audio submission as well as the interest in continuing audio

Now, I'm not so sure if i can let you in into the Audio Department just like that as my specialty is the BBS Department.

I'm guessing you have to go through a 10 day probation period as i was checking AnalPenguinFarming's post on accepting TheNossinator :

You're very right. We have no Department Head and no new members in the field. I've gone through your audio submissions and they're fairly good. Welcome to the Newgrounds Department of Defense! You'll be put on probation for 10 days before you're fully accepted. In your case, you won't become a Department Head right away due to lack of experience, but if you have any questions or comments feel free to PM me.

Welcome!

So, as of tomorrow you're on a 10 day probation period before becoming a member of the NGDD!

Hello Jesus-Owns-X!

You wish to join the Audio Department, correct?

Well, your audio is quite good actually but you don't have that many Audio Reviews but in those current 12 you have they seem quite helpful!

So please read what i have written to sirtom93 because the same goes for you!

Nice post DarkSoldier. You're doing a better job than I am as leader, but don't plan on taking my position anytime soon. As soon as I come back it's back to work for me. By the way you decide people's fate no matter what the situation, whether you're their Department Head or not...because you're the stand in Commander right now.

But you missed one, and I'll let it slide and take this one from here.

I apologize but we cannot accept you as of right now. You have almost no Newgrounds experience at all, but you can ask us any questions you may have about anything on Newgrounds, or any advice in general and we would be happy to help you out. The reason you cannot join is because you don't have any of the requirements posted here.

if you have any questions or issues feel free to PM me.

Good to see some audio members coming in. Welcome to the NGDD! Just one thing, now that you're in the NGDD, all audio members have to email me all their songs they want submitted and I'll submit them on the main NGDD account. My email is sprint-air[at]hotmail[dot]com, ok? Why are we doing this? Because we want everyone here to love and be dedicated to the NGDD. Welcome.

Oh and btw, almost everything you read in the above is false. Have a nice day. :)

Hi there!

Ya it doesn't seem that there were any Audio members before me and Sirtom93 came here.

Not too popular? It seem there were never any since the thread began!

I could be wrong.

I apologize for my behavior as well, even that APF didn't mention it for me to do, but probably meant it anyway. But I do agree a bit with DS, the context made us act like we did, it shouldn't but it did nevertheless. And what comes for accusing me for being unorganized, you were on the Discharged list so I couldn't know where you were.

Hey guys.

Just here to tell you that my 10 day probation period is up.

So what are my duties here?

Awesome news guys. Im making the top 100 audio responces list, just something that im interested in making. Done 50 now so it will be in the wi/ht forum soon.

I'm wishing you luck in coming around to that achievement. It's tough to do. I'm trying to do the same with flash reviews, but my pace is fairly slow because my reviews are long and detailed. I can't tell you how incredibly hard it is to make it to 700 or 800 reviews just to be on the top reviewers list. It's a tough thing to do. I'm better off B/Ping my brains off.
