Ignoring users DOES work, because if you pay attention to them, it encourages them, and they think " Oh wow! Someone replied! I guess its okay if I type like a total faggot!" Then it takes someone with big enough balls to go and say to him" Dude, your grammar sucks, learn how to type before you post again, we already have enough faggots here on the BBS!" Then the user gets mad, flames, and looks like even more of an idiot. If the user gets ignored, ( I went through this until I had about 400 posts) Their grammar, subjects, and overall intellegance in their posting rises considerably, until someone pays attention.

Therefore saving another noob from being an idiot.

Exactly, it was hard at first, but when you realize after 400 or in some cases a 1000 posts you say, gee. I need to stop acting like a retard, so I'll be recognized. It works because it saves time. The other choice is listen to people that have to say about you, and offer tips from a legend of the BBS via PM messaging.

Your personal story was very touching and it will certainly have an impact on the childish narrative in this BBS community.

Not.

There will always be another retard to feed the trolls. Even when you point out its best to ignore them there is always someone with too big of an ego to let it slide. People respond to trolls with emotion. Theres no reasoning involved. Take a look at the topics in this forum. Do you really think anyone here thinks things through before they post?

Sike.

I've already tried PM'ing some people I've noticed are not really fitting in giving them tips.

It's the internet. Go outside and shut the fuck up.

and I'm pretty sure you can find one for Fire fox

Actually,Fire Fox already comes with one.

I honestly don't see what's wrong. I've been here since '03, and I honestly think you're imagining things. This place has been the same since I started visiting.

we r not a retarded ppl!

Of course you're not.

Right, im gonna make a point out of this, Newgrounds is full of retards, retards that will continue in their stupid posts, flashes and reviews until someone, US, tells them to shut the fuck and have a bit of maturity. I'd love to see the forums cleansed of all these stupid threads about brawl, or suicide from 13 year old kids or whatever.
Posting this in General isnt going to make a change. Make a club out of it, a club that people who want to try and change Newgrounds for the better will join, and im sure theres lots of people who will want in on this as we are not the only ones who are sick of all this crap.

When these faggots post retarded threads or posts, ignore them. If they keep at it, take what they say and make complete shit of them till they're so embarressed they never want to show thier face on the forum again. Telling them to fuck off and whatnot isnt gonna make the slightest bit of difference cause that means their annoying us, which is esactly what their trying to do. But if you make shit of them they'll know they're just gonna be made fools of and noone cares what they think, and noone will till they gain some sensibility.

If you can make a solid club, with dedicated members who arent gonna just fuck about and do nothing perhaps we can actually change something. Im not saying this is gonna work, but its better than just sitting by while the BBS is being turned into an 11 year old's playroom. H-K-S if you want to PM me about this club or whatever we can set it up together if you want and try and fix the mess alot of this forum has become. The Mods can really only go as far as policing the stupid threads so its up to us to police the posts. And try and smack some maturity into these dickweeds. Are You With me People Of Newgrounds? Shall we wage war against the morons of the BBS? Do You want to try and make a difference? Or are you happy with how it is. Its up to you. We can change this if people are dedicated and are willing to put a little effort into it.

I dont know if theres already a club like this but if there is its sure as hell not working. Things like this havent worked before because people dont try. if we try then we can do it. We can make a difference. And i know how ridiculously corny this whoile speech sounds but im dead serious. Im sick of people posting one word replies, and stupid off topic posts. Or just retarded posts and replies in general. We can change this, so its our duty as Newgrounders to do it.

Phew...

See thats exactly what you shouldn't do. A prime example. You've given a negative reaction so now he's gonna keep at it. If noone makes any comment towards his post he wont do anything. Just forget him and his idioticness and lets carry on with the problem at hand. Dickweeds like Jeronimo

I understand your point, just kinda hard to ignore spam that takes up half the damned page. =/

I shall try and put aside his pointless mockery though.

I know I haven't got much of a rep (or any at all) on this profile, but I have been here for a while, and I do know what happens to those who spew out complete crap. Sadly, our world is now based on reputation and experience, so I cant help much, but for as long as I have been here I have been trying to slow down this "global warming" of the Newgrounds BBS.

I am in favour of your cause. I admit, my post-count is low, and my sign-up date is recent, but I loathe the idiocy people tend to show on the 'net.
If someone starts up a club, as was suggested, I'll be happy to join and support it.

Well at least your trying, which is more than i can say for some of the other newgrounds users, And on the BBS respect is measured in the maturity of your posts and nothing less.

Im glad for your support, once i have a talk to some others ill see whats gonna happen, if anything at all. If anyone is interested in something like this, say so here or PM me, ill be happy to respond. ^_^

Bring back story threads goddamnit. That will improve Newgrounds.

This makes me feel like I'm useless. I'm a new use but I use proper grammar, and always look for valid points. Just like in your last angry post, you simply stereotyped and cursed. Now, this time, you actually make sense and have more of a point to what your saying! Even though I'm a new user, the babbling morons annoy me too and make me want to leave newgrounds as fast as I came. Therefore, I'm going to try to use your neat-o tactics you came up with. :-D

So basically "THIS IS OUR TIME NOW"

amirite?

I'm not going to make a club, and all I want you to do is simply be a good user, and every time I see you in trouble, I'll simply back you up. It's a nice compromise.

Not even a club as such but somewhere people can go so they know that theres people trying to help the forums and that it'll help convince them to do it too.

Yeah there is something. It's called this thread, as long as it is bumped and commented on, we can make this a part of NG. If someone new is posting like a faggot, and asking why he's being ignored, show them the thread.

Mmmk! thats good enough for me, but if this doesnt work im buying a gun ;)
So basically show this thread to the fags who post like idiots? I can do that. Let me just link it to my sig.

I decided that I have made a club. Decent name too.

If only the noobs actually took this advice.

Good for making the club, ill link that to my sig instead.

Why do you care so much? It's an internet forum, stop bitching.

HKS, This isn't a club. This seems to me like a claim to fame.

They're are kids on the internet, get over it. I was one, so were you - and if you were young enough to be an idiot on NG you'll understand when I say:

Kids grow up.

They won't start acting mature until they are.

I've said all this before on this thread, you just didn't bother replying:

The problem you have H-K-S is with young people. Because they are the ones that have bad grammar (90% of the time) and nothing will stop the young users being complete idiots, they're like kids.

What is different now is that there is a lot more of them... But they will mature, in their own time, and depending whether NG has hit it's peak in popularity the place will become much more mature (If popularity drops) and visa versa.

So, this site is full of the users of tomorrow.

The problems of the future, today!

They all do, but to smear on here isn't that fair at times, but ignoring them leaves them to isolation and realization that they are being dumb as hell

They won't start acting mature until they are.

Understood, but the question is that 11 year olds should not be here to begin with, Newgrounds.com is a mature site to begin with.

True, I have bad problems with a younger group, most of them here, being spoiled and annoying just gets on my nerves. Something will stop them, and it's ignoring them or helping them.
