It's true-- Ng is a very popular site. Thousands of people visit it every day. But people are taking advantage of the free flash portal. People spam it with crap every day. A couple of examples are:

Copies of "B". It was funny once. Not anymore. (eg. T, C, V, L, Q)

When people steal names so the real author can't use them. Examples are Tankmen 3 and Blockhead Ep. 11 (if they haven't been deleted).

When people throw together a 5 second flash that literally takes 5 seconds to make.

Screamers.

Hentai...

remakes of classic games (Tetris, Pong, etc.)

crappy Windows Sims. The good ones are fun. The bad ones suck balls.

Music videos that BELONG ON YOUTUBE, RETARDS!

Submissions with nothing but tweens.

Mouse avoider games with NO original content.

Ng is a website, of that we can be sure
But websites can't be totally pure
A wise saying is revered in my hood
You must tolerate the bad to let in the good.

And people will always spam it everyday, no matter how much people complain about it.

Once was enough there isn't a need for another one. Anything like this I vote 0 for.

You do know you can blow the whistle on a stolen title right? If you ever see something like this blow this whistle and give your reason for blowing the whistle because they were trying to steal a title.

I'm sure it takes more then 5 seconds, even if they are very short and simple.


Screamers.

Oh come on. They are funny as hell.


Hentai...

Terrible. I think these should be against the rules.


remakes of classic games (Tetris, Pong, etc.)

The only way I like these to be done is when something completely new is made with it and that's almost impossible to do anymore.


crappy Windows Sims. The good ones are fun. The bad ones suck balls.

Well no shit sherlock. Anything that's good is fun and stuff that's bad sucks.


Music videos that BELONG ON YOUTUBE, RETARDS!

Where does it say that you can't post videos on newgrounds? Am I missing something or aren't you allowed to post anything as long as it doesn't break the rules even if it is a music video or a live action movie. You guys wouldn't like my latest submission then since almost the whole thing was live action and very little is animated.


Submissions with nothing but tweens.

Oh well. You have to start somewhere.


Mouse avoider games with NO original content.

Like I said you have to start somewhere, but I don't like seeing these unless they original either.

Then why don't you make something good instead of bitching about it? Bitching isn't going to help it out any.
