ICP is actually quite popular. Their CD "Amazing Jeckyl Brothers" topped the Billboard 200 charts despite the band getting little to no airplay on the radio. I'm pretty sure their later albums did even better than that. They're huge amongst teens and preteens. I'm amazed they weren't sued for Columbine instead of Marilyn Manson considering their older cd's have numerous songs about themselves going into school and killing students and teachers. I'm not saying that kids who listen to ICP are gonna go nuts and kill their schoolmates, I'm just saying I think ICP would have been a more obvious scapegoat for such things than Manson or anyone else.

The worst part is that a lot of Juggalos actually buy into the whole violent image of the wicked clowns, and actually become ranting, raving lunatics threatening any "haters" with violence of various degrees. It's ridiculous.

Indeed. The funniest fact about it all is that the ones flaming the authors of those flashes aren't even out of middle school yet, so they have no concept of a Juggalo, and how one does buisness. That and calling themselves one is just a gut buster.

I concur. there should really be a reviewing restriciton. You must be so tall to criticze.

Fail

Moreso an intelligence test of sorts. I'm really tired of seeing assholes write super hateful reviews on UJ movies, just to put in their two cents, knowing that the review will be read by the author, and will probably hurt him/her in some way, and the reviewer not being brought to justice. I'm fucking tired of it, and it sickens me so. Same with normal reveiwing, you have no right to act hateful to ANYONE, no matter how much they piss you off. People have different oppinons, and if you don't like the flash, don't review it, just pass on it/forget about it.

I honestly thought I had a chance @ gold, at least sooner or later. I knew that it takes awhile, But i've reported alota movies (like 20 or so) and a ton of reveiws... I mean, I've only been here a bit over a month and I'm almost l33t guard... but...

But now I found this thred and see that even YOU guys, who've been in the game for a LONG time are still at silver.

That's a little discourageing... but you can bet I'll still work hard to use the whistle and blam the crap outa the crap in Newgrounds, even if I never get the awards for it. Thanks for the thred anyways, it's cool we can work together on this. w00t

I hope these two users haven't been posted yet, I have had these bookmarked for some time now. I had a third one too, but I just noticed he had been banned already.

Check out the review crew pick. It's a Star Syndicate movie, and it looks like it was mass reviewed to get the award, which I suppose is okay as long as they weren't alts (they were probably trying to get it to win the underdog). But take a look at SixStar and SevenStar's reviews for that flash (there might be some more crappy one line reviews by other users too). Those two, especially SevenStar, have also reviewed other entries just saying "hi" to the authors, trying to increase the entries' average review ratings.

OK, here are some more blatantly abusive ones that I just found.

That's not exactly a new idea, but worth reiterating I suppose.

I just recently achieved a bronze whistle and I would also like to thank the participants of this thread. After the recent ICP parody and the conversation in this thread, I did not realize that "juggalos" were so hateful. But now that I know, I recently did a search for ICP or Eminem parodies and came up with the following links. I don't know if you guys have already seen these, but just take this as my gift back to you for the help you have given me. Cheers!

Ah a very recent and abusive review. What a retard that would write an abusive review for a flash by Dan Paladin that will certainly make the front page.

I am completely puzzled how this guy has evaded a review ban for so long. He is a total review spammer. It sickens me how he brags in his profile about having over 8000 reviews and being #2 in ranking. Tons of his reviews are simply, "not bad," "it was ok," "this sucks," or "I liked it." You may say they are not abusive but this is straight from the Portal FAQ:

"Do not post TONS and TONS of crappy reviews just to get high in the rankings. If we catch someone doing this we will delete all their reviews- wouldn't that be a pain in the ass? Take your time and write a sincere review for every movie you wish to critique. Make sure your review is relative to the submission. Reviews that are found to offer no benefit to the author maybe deleted."

KWAS71KCK must be review banned. I'm not kidding.

They can be quite the vicious little bastards, believe me. If you EVER want to create a cornucopia of abusive reviews for yourself, simply post a Flash making fun of ICP or anyone from Psychopathic Records. The Juggalo's will flood the review section with their hate, leaving you to reap the rewards.

I agree there as well, I looked through a few pages and most of them were just two words or so. Hardly even reviews. I'm amazed he even wants to brag he has 8000 if they're all as crap as that.

From what I understand, be happy with silver, because you're likely never going to get gold.

Ok guys.. I'm a little confussed...

You can vote yes or no on "helpfulness"... or then there's abusive...

But if it's not helpful, isn't it abusive? That's been my thought process for a little while, But when i think about it.... why is the "no" even there? what good is it? and how do I decide when to vote No or Abusive?

hmmm...

Not neccessarily. If a review is something like, "This is a really good game. It took up a whole chunk of my life," it's not helpful, but it's not abusive, either. See?

But not being helpfull IS abusive to the very CONSEPT of a reveiw. That was my thinking. But I see your point... I'll try to just go easyer on people who are just being dumb and not complete idiots.
