how the mighty have fallen. stamper is still pretty funny.
Alternatively some of them went to work in other fields, or did succeed in becoming animators, but only for the kind of corporate stuff you've never heard of or cared for.
I wish Stamper wasn't addicted to meth though. He was funny as hell when he was actually making content back in the day and it's a shame to have him succumb to hard drugs
Fuck RicePirate though. He was always the least charismatic member of SleepyCabin

God is every depressed person a pedo.
Wait I'm just reading now and is this about chatlogs with a 16 yr old? the age of concent?
if so this is literally nothing. the fact that he's a furfag is worse.
you guys know when you say pedo people think they're going after actual kids right? is there more to the story?
it's so weird seeing discussions like that on newgrounds
maybe i'm just used to the version of the site from 2006 where it was stupid hentai games and edgy flash shit, but i couldn't imagine seeing that kind of discourse lel
also did the guy kill himself or is he just weirdly talking about leaving newgrounds? a little confused

I remember seeing him say or do something recently that made me think "wow didn't know he was such a gay". Don't remember what that was but I feel less disappointed with this as a result.
Guy's been a depressed mentally ill case since I was in high school.
He probably started burring himself in the newgrounds community so much because he had no friends and failed at real life.
Now that that "life" is gone too + apparently his job, he'll probably kill himself if he has the resolve.

Poor Tom has just been trying to run his website quietly while also praying to God that a collective group of retards from his own website or another site don't congregate and do some stupid fucking bullshit like this. In this current online landscape, I have wondered why more Zoomers or Millenials do not go out of their way to create their own website ala Moot but it is probably situations like this that make them refrain from doing so. Why would you try and support a community with ultimately zero returns when the drama it could potentially create unleashes fallout onto your own reputation, career, and personal life?
Twitter dying is unironically a good thing though
100% not looking forward to the website dieing in the short-term because then a lot of users who learned to be assholes on Twitter are going to carry that behaviour onto smaller sites.
>I have wondered why more Zoomers or Millenials do not go out of their way to create their own website ala Moot but it is probably situations like this that make them refrain from doing so
It's because they don't know how.
I don't know why everyone on Ganker projects themselves on me.
No, I'm not a pedophile
No, I'm not a chud
No, I'm not a biological woman
No, I HATE modern games
Stop projecting your ideas of me.
>weird autistic teenagers making goofy flash movies/games/memes has been replaced by every normalfag kid under the sun shitting out low effort tiktoks
The internet really got the fucking bad end.
Same. I remember stumbling on Ganker in 2006 via Newgrounds, and at first I thought it was retarded that I couldn't wave around a post-count epeen like I could on the BBS. Can't believe I'm still stuck in this shithole nearly 2 decades later.
No, it's just a porn archive at this point. Most of the artists that use twitter also use newgrounds. It's kind of surreal that the place that I used to spend a lot of my teenagehood playing games is now the place I spend searching for good artists.
>at this point
To be fair, there were always the horny fucks who went to newgrounds for some porn flashes and not much else. I respect that Tom was cool with it, but letting straight up porn (and some other dubious content) did ultimately mean that the site would need to rely on fan donations nowdays.
It's not good for porn archival, random content that has been uploaded gets taken down without a notice because some random mod, or a user that spams reports, didn't like it. And no I don't mean blamming, some of the arts have high scores before they vanish.
How come people say politics when it’s always left wing psychos? Never heard of right wing politics ruining a website or video game… >politics ruined Star Wars
Left wing >politics ruined warhammer
Left wing
>Never heard of right wing politics ruining a website or video game…
It don't matter since the left is literal slaves to the system, they have created their own right wing.
that was flash in general and I've gone back to see if there were any stand-outs I missed like this japanese Sentai parody
but no matter what there are still games that slow down with enough enemies on screen, was there ever a way to give more resources to the game?
NG only allows you to do cool shit if you are part of the cool kids club, I know people who do music and shit like that that get their things taken down for no reason and it never gets resolved.
>b-b-but it got blammed!
no it was fake copyright strikes
However, given that this composer has worked for Riot Games, is it not unreasonable to assume that some 3rd party or Riot Games themselves may have been issuing the copyright claim on their work? Fake copyright strikes happen on YouTube, so wouldn't it be possible to happen on Newgrounds as well?
I've also seen users dump the entire Gorillaz soundtrack in the Audio Portal to use in Geometry Dash before, so I bet moderators were playing it by ear.

no it wasn't just that one song, and the copyright strikes were filed with his name not riot.
I had a similar experience with my art too. the site just sucks if you are not in the cool club, if you can't get a hold of Tom you are fucked when things like this happen, its not worth the effort.

Could I see that, too? If you're not comfortable sharing, that's okay, I can respect that.
My experience on Newgrounds has been pretty lax for all the years I've spent on it, so that's why I'm interested in hearing stories like this. The only drama I've seen so far has been a furry artist getting his art mistaken for cub, a 3D porn artist getting a Daily 1st on Memorial Day and then subsequently getting his gallery wiped for using 3rd party models, and the aforementioned SoftDon and ThatJohnnyGuy ITT. But those last two are more Twitter related than NG. I'm aware the site isn't perfect, but it's not like it is completely locked to outsiders from different websites.

Well, I find that a bold assumption to make considering the account was created four weeks ago and the deletion incident happened, like, what? A year and a half ago by now? What moderator would suddenly go out of their way to create empty accounts for specific artists that leave the site after so long?
...but then again, it's not like I've butted heads with'em before, so what do I know? Be careful out there, you strange creature, you!!

Forgot to mention everything I've listed so far has been after the renewed interest on the site after the Tumblr purge and FNF going viral. Newgrounds was pretty slow during 2012-2016 until those happened.
The site is also highly circlejerky. Most of what reaches frontpage is either references to itself(pico, madness, fnf etc.) or the same 3 artists that were already popular on twitter
Stumbling onto the adult portal of newgrounds permanently altered my psyche for the worst bros. Wish I could go back in time and stop 10 year old me from watching those teen titan flash animations, fuck you ZONE
in hindsight I wish I kept my old account and actually went ahead, grow some balls, and upload porn there. Where do you guys look for new talent? Is it still Pixiv/Twiter?
Twitter. But that's because the japs I follow usually post uncensored stuff there. Shame the sight is slowly strangling itself.
Newgrounds always struck me as one of those "backup" sites for artists.
For civilization as a whole? Yes.
But japs artist adopting the platform en masse has been a godsend.
It forced a lot of western smut artists to up their game and all that uncensored porn is great.
You'll only find shit if you don't look hard enough and most of the diamonds are from 2001-2012.

It's because they don't know how.
All zoomers know how to do is consume.
I just found my old profile from 2002. my username is pearly if anyone wants to see my old autistic posts.

Catposters conformed cancer. You can literally go there and find new stuff. You guys act like shit like /f/ just died out.
I know /f/ didn't die and flash has a special place in my heart but I'm just pointing out its main use nowadays.

Thank you
anyone else played this? this game was the first hentai i jerked off to when i was 13
Yeah.
Failing to date any of the guys by the time limit causes Sakura to get really depressed and give Shikimaru head our of desperation.
Newgrounds ruined my life. I could have been a normal person.
>Newgrounds ruined my life. I could have been a normal person.

Ever since the death of Flash (and Shockwave), this site has lost all its good titles.
