Blog entries in 2017.

This year, I have seen an up-rise on low-quality blog entries, even shitposts. I have made this entry to comment on my thoughts about this. These are my thoughts, not yours. Though, you may express your opinion in the comments below.

'Tempers, please, stop shitposting on your blog section. It is not made for this at all, and guests & newcomers will be able to see this, well, unless your blog is private, which is what I see as something rare across the temp, but it is quite frustrating to see someone I'm following and count onto making good-quality blogs do shitposts like, "My serious thoughts" with the description of "lol blah blah blah" and nothing else. If you want to shitpost, move to the EoF. I don't want to see your shitty blog posts on my notifications and recent content tab.

I know I can just ignore the said person, but I still don't agree the misuse of the blog section.

Satirical comments on the entry is fine, as long as the content is good enough with valid points. If you do not feel like your followers want the content, then don't post it. If you don't want people to know you in a certain way from a blog post, then don't post it.

I sincerely apologise if I'm just adding to the mix, but I just feel like expressing my thoughts. Thanks for reading.

Yeah, because it's super easy to avoid when it's all over the site.

It's pretty easy to spot a shitpost. I don't know about you, but I can tell "FAGGOT FAGGOT FAGGOT" and "My Respectful Opinion on..." apart from each other shitpost wise. And if the title is misleading and the content of the post is "FAGGOT FAGGOT FAGGOT" then there's a nice "back" button in the top left corner of most browsers that you can click so you don't have to read it. Unless you're retarded then you should have no problem using it.

Ignoring a problem won't make it go away. Ignoring the person won't make them stop. As the old adage goes.. "Stupid is as stupid does."

"stop shitposting on your blog section. It is not made for this at all"
No, but it is a convenient dumping ground for things originally on the forums (dump it in blogs is the new dump it in EOF/TA for the mods, or indeed new 18 months ago).

"and guests & newcomers will be able to see this, well, unless your blog is private, which is what I see as something rare across the temp"
I occasionally go back through some of the greatest hits and they are private. Quite annoying sometimes actually.

@TheGeneralFilms I'd like you to take your own advice, if you dislike it that much, leave :-)

"Oh no he shitposts, I better make a post about it to make myself look cool and legit and fancy!"

"Blogs are to be used for anything and everything relating to your personal life, opinions, rants and raves, and anything else you can think of that doesn't fit into another forum section of GBAtemp. Freedom of speech is a key component so your opinions, no matter what they may be, will not be policed as long as you stay civil and within the general rules of the forum."

I'm ok with shitposts every once in a while in blogs. I've seen some pretty good ones and at least in blogs you can turn a shitpost comment section into a legitimate conversation. I dunno the last time that ever happened in the eof with shitposts.

    @Xdqwerty, Reason how I found Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/249365
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark
     +1
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    https://tcrf.net/Pico_VS_Bear
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)
     +1
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds
     +1
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

  • a_username_that_is_cool @ a_username_that_is_cool:
    FNF was born from Game Jams
  • a_username_that_is_cool @ a_username_that_is_cool:
