Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

100% agreed.
I hate that shit as much as you do.

MAJOR NOTICE: During night time alot more crap is being submitted, HOW EVER i have also noticed that during the same time every crap submission gets blammed.
Just keep track of this, you'll notice the same.

So be sure to grab the blam points at night.
(Check server time, depending on where ypu live it could be way off)

Well said bro.

At first, I'd usually leave high marks: 4's or 5's. After about a month, though, I thoroughly checked seeing through the flash and found mountains and mountains of shitty flash. Now, I would obviously leave 1's and 0's. However, my blams are still low due to everyone else leaving high marks without checking, so I have way more saves than blams than necessary.

It is what it is. 0's and 1's are for the bad one's, 2's and 3's are average, and 4's and 5's are great, in summary.

It's as simple as this: The people doing it don't give a shit about the site, or how many people they piss off, or anything else aside from their precious points. Complaining is a waste of time, no matter how valid your logic is. The only ones listening to the complaints are those who vote fairly already.

I have a fair and consistent B/S policy. I really do try. For example anything that says "test" in it's title and all it is is a crappy stick dude skate boarding in a blank background then it really shouldn't go through the portal.

*right

That's my point. When someone who isn't as important says something write it's still wrong to the public.

I remember when I tried rallying the troops like this years ago. All of the big name users looked down upon me for trying to change things and trying to be better then everyone else.

That's why I stopped helping this site as much as I use to. I will always continue to vote honestly, but after that I'm really not helping spread the word. Tried it, got flamed for it, won't do it again.

Did the same with posts and other aspects of the website. Got turned down by the public every time. Especially those from the Wi/Ht.

I agree. I seriously vote 0 in pretty much everything (not really everything, I vote fairly).

Also, people who vote fairly need to know about Portal Guard.

Not very good, but good enough.

now, if this submission gets through judgement we all know that we still have a long way to go.

In case it gets blammed: It's a simple test (it doesn't even have a real name!) with some sprite figure doing an attack motion.

I don't know why I said B/P...

Bookmarked this blog. If you want, you want me to send a PM to help expand on voting honestly?

It's news posts like this that make me wish we had like buttons. :P

True. True.

Thank you! I noticed today that all the garbage I was voting low scores on (deserved I thought) were getting through at an alarming rate. Not stuff I didn't care for mind you (things that were well put together, but not my cup of tea I mean), but silly little flashes that didn't really offer up much in the way of effort on the part of the animator.

Hopefully more people take your words to heart, DiMono. Many things making the front page don't deserve to make it past the voting stage.

I don't have a small amount of blams because I 5 everything, I've got a small amount of blams because my 0's and 1's didn't do anything compared to all the statwhores flooding the place. It's a sad, sad, crap filled world T_T

Also, congrats on a perfect 5,000 B/P rank

I hate seeing crap coming into Newgrounds.
I only vote highly on something if I know its good.
And if I see something that just sucks I vote really low on it.
