Newgrounds...or Newspace?

Posted by Nihongo - August 18th, 2007


Is Newgrounds selling out to the idea that users want this site to be just like Myspace. Look at the user pages. We even have our own blogs for fuck's sake! If we keep heading towards "Newspace" we'll be up to our neck in emos, ad-bots, and spammers. (Right now we're only up to our waists...)

I mean what's next? NG helping me find hot singles in my local area? Facegrounds? Newchan? Do you Yahoogrounds? NewGoogle? A NG porn site?(Seriously, this is gonna happen. Just take some certain *cough*naked pics of Tom*cough* as an example.) Or worst of all...a site that lets users submit flash documents into a "portal" that is so clogged with crap, you can't see the good works!! *gasp!*

I mean come on Tom. If you're going to sell out do it in merchandise! The NG store is a start, but go further than that. Radio, TV commercials. Internet ads! And for products: Tom and Wade action figures with realistic admin powers! SBC alram clock! Bedn posters! Blammed flash beany babys! Alien Hominid Legos! Tankmen sex toys! Agnry faic condems!
Merchandise is where the real money is! So if NG has to sell out do it in merchandise, at least then you get exra cash for the site and for yourself!

And if all else fails, go to Daytime TV and infommercials! All the housewives will love NG, they might even become regulars.

Newgrounds...or Newspace?

I love the way ur a hippocryt i mean criticizing the blog system now on newgrounds and yet you use it. Omg the irony is so great. Thanks for making me fall outa my chair laughing.

Irony? What irony? I send my clothes to the cleaner.
Glad to give you a laugh, though.

i hope you're being sarcastic. you are right?
lol, anyways those merchandize ideas are TEH shit, specially the blammed flash bean dolls and OMG the stawberry clock CLOCK that would TOTALLY ROCK!!! they're just starting with figurines, i really hope the SBC alarm is next, it would be so cool everyone would buy one TEEHEE <3 ^_^

seriously, it would be a big hit.

Ok if you are worried about newgrounds bring in emos I am sure, a lot of people will kick them out...

Myspace welcomes emos we kick them out.

Newgrounds rules over myspace period.

But what of the democrats? What would they say about that?

How many people that use myspace even know what flash is?
Enough said.

"A NG porn site?"
It's already happened, if you haven't noticed. :P

MySpace is annoying and unorganized. Newgrounds user pages are more flash oriented, more organized, and don't look like crap. I would love to see NG commercials on TV though. And a SBC "alram clock" would be awesome.

:D

They've only added a blog & userpage.

You can't do as much as you can with myspace but NG has something it doesn't... Flash

AMEN Brother!

hes seriously right tom u shouldnt let anyone else join just keep the people that already have profiles or...or ill um.....go to albinoblacksheep!!!! hahahahahaha how u like dem apples

Um... i know this is random but can someone help me on creating and submiting flash??? please ill give u a cookie!!!!!

Are you new?

That happened three years ago.

Stop bitching because they made the website a bit more personal so it could suck a little less.

I wasn't bitching, merely ranting...in a hysterical and humourous way.
And don't you like my idea of NG selling pet lizards with your name? T_T

NG already had a dating service, as well as a mature site. Years ago. You're trying to pinpoint some direction that NG's moving in, but it's just a scattered mess of things that have already happened, ridiculous baseless rambling, and vague attempts to pair Newgrounds with several corporate giants you pulled out of your ass at random.
Personal pages. BFD. You love the attention they're getting you anyway.
Maybe once you graduate high school and start a career, you're understand the difference between selling out and making money.

True, and maybe once you're done trying to sound smart you'll realize this was a joke and laugh like you're supposed to.

I would fuck an Agnry faic condems

No, an Agnry faic condem would fuck you...

OMG I KNOW... JEEZ NEWSPACE IS GOING TO RUIN NEWGROUNDS.

JUST LIKE HURRICANE KATRINA RUINED LOUISIANIA. >.>

YOU BITCH! I live in Louisiania!

[/ Saracasm]

Newspace would be nice, I like it, and it would not bring emos, they wiuld just stay in myspace and facebook, why go to newgrounds? they don't know crap aboot flash and if they did they wouldd go looking on the intenet for a way to put custom layout on their profile, not even go to the forums.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's becoming Myspace, but I would say that this site is leaning towards the Deviantart/Sheezyart kind of site. But I don't think it's gotten THAT bad yet.

A NG porn site?

NG already is a porn site. Duh!

Really? You mean the tons of Mature content and hentai that flood the portal and forums are porn?! I never would have known.

The user pages are mainly for the flash artists that keep this site exciting and fresh. Newgrounds is only as good as the content we provide, so its nice that the artist can keep us posted on whats in the works, chat, or whatever. So its mostly for the flash artists.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that most of the users on the sites you mentioned, don't even know what flash is... So you needn't worry about those people spaming this site.

The "I was just joking defense". What a new angle at dodging the whiny crybaby label!

The annoying " I'm better than you, approach to life". What a pathetic way to show that you have no real life so you have to just make others online look less than you.
Go get laid and a real social life, that way you won't have to spend all your time here showing how you're better than me.

Who even checks back in on a News Post like this anyways?!

all of the above, Newgrounds is like:

Newchan,

Newspam,

Noobgrounds,

Newspace,

Newgounds (with all kinds of nice flash),

and forumgrounds.

Newgle.
