*ERROR* MUST UPLOAD STUFF
11/8/09 by WakataNG
I'll get stuff up sometime this year, I can upload some art and stuff and maybe a couple other things, I'm just really lazy and haven't gotten around to it yet... but this morning I had a revelation, and I made up my mind.
Enough trolling the forums, writing reviews, save/blamming, and whistle-blowing...
The time has come for me, the great WakataNG...
...to submit.
These guys are destroying Newgrounds. This is not a mere spam crew, people, they're cyber-terrorists. They aim to get Newgrounds shut down, and beyond that have further plans to trash other websites and attempt to basically dominate the entire Web. Which is impossible, but they could do some serious damage.
They have already hacked the account of the user WritersBlock (who recently recovered it, but lost his Golden Aura).
They hacked BBS moderator KaynSlamdyke, who, at the time of this post, has not yet recovered it (his userpage header, avatar, job description, and "blurb about you" have been DD'ified, and they deleted all of his News entries).
They have stolen many trophies (Daily Pick, etc.), likely through hacking (spam submissions of theirs have received trophies that they obviously don't deserve in the slightest).
And they're pumping the Portal full of spam. And not just spam, but malicious spam (submissions with flashing light patterns to induce seizures in epileptic users, etc).
And now, one particularly nasty DD member is planning to... well, I'll let you read it for yourself, at its location in their forums (scroll down if you don't see the post): link
And he really will do it, which could easily singlehandedly meanthe end of Newgrounds, no joke.
The list continues of things that the DD is doing (recruiting existing, disgruntled NG members to the DD on their forum, for example).
And the NG administration, mods etc., is just turning its back. Many people have PM'd om, Wade, and tons of otherstaff members who could do something about it, an have gotten no response.
I myself have PM'd Tom, we'll see what comes of it.
There needs to be moderator/administration intervention, possibly even informing the FBI or CIA, but for now what you can do to help is:
1) Moniter the Portal whenever possible and see to it that all new submissions of theirs are whistle-blown/flagged or blammed.
2) I'm going to create a list of known DD users below. Harass these people until their brains fall out. If you know of a DD member, tell me their username in a comment below and I'll add them to the list.

LordZeebmork (This is the guy who is writing the hacker program to take over NG. He's "prick" from the DD forums)

By having me put your name below, you are stating that you agree with the following:
The fact that submissions cannot be blammed after passing judgment is a flawed rule. Users should be able to blam submissions after they have passed judgment. This will be accomplished by downvoting the submission until it has a score of 0.5 or less, upon which it will be blammed. If we the people downvote a submission so that it has a score as low as that, it is evident that the majority of Newgrounds does not like the submission. We need to be able to get rid of spam and crap submissions. They are a waste of space here on NG, and we should be able to get rid of them democratically. If almost everyone doesn't like a submission, then there is no reason for it to still be on Newgrounds, no reason to continue hosting it. It should be blammed.
If you want your name below, comment on this and state so in your comment. Or message me. Either one is fine. When I have deemed that we have enough "signatures" I'll show it to Tom.

Alright guys. I'm considering creating an unofficial usergroup called The Blam Syndicate. Or, if you don't like the name, we can change it. Suggestions are welcome.
What we do is take care of business. We see crappy submissions, we take out the trash.
We weed out all of the shit that isn't even worth seeing.
We make the scores of bad entries so low that no one will consider them worth clicking on.
It may even pressure the author into deleting them, which would be even better.
If we get enough members, we will have the collective voting power to dropkick the scores of that crap without having to wait for another thousand people to click on the zero.
If you want to join, message me and I'll add you as a friend/contact.
Once we have enough members, I'll start posting targets for you to chip away at. And any of you can suggest things as well. But here are the criteria:
-It cannot already have a medium/high score (a 3.0 or above, in my book). Submissions with a high score are usually good and undeserving. We shouldn't knock them off of their pedestal.
-It has to REALLY suck. We can't abuse this. It must really deserve the blammage.
And that's basically it.
So yeah, messsage me if you want to join or with suggestions, and I'll see how it goes.
