In a more serious note:
PaperBat sent me an audio file that was posted on TheBackAlleys.com all about newgrounds. It talks about the newgrounds war between video game parodies and serious shorts. It talks about the voting system.
It has tons of flash animators in it such as The Swain, RTIL, and the dad of Egoraptor. It is very well put together. I suggest you listen to it. It is about an hour long.

Lemme know what you think.
HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS IN A NUT SHELL WITH NO SENTENCE STRUCTURE:
Most people only vote 5 or 0. I am guilty of it. Lots of people give 10 out of 10 review score. I believe that most people come to newgrounds to see something that they can get a quick laugh at. Serious cartoons only catch on if it's very well done. Usually Tom will get the very good shorts on the front page. I think that Tom has a major say in what is good and what isn't. For example if he puts it on the front page it will get tons of more views. I do agree that scores are way higher then back in the day. I have been around since 2001 and I remember if something had a 4.0 it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Now there are tons of high scores. As far as the so called "war" goes, I don't follow it. I didn't even know there was a war, probably because I don't visit any flash forums. I rarely go to the BBS. I don't take sides. Video game parodies make me laugh as do non video game parodies with original content. I think that you should make cartoons because you have fun. If you get mad because other people get your awards then too bad. Your cartoon wasn't good enough. I do think that some cartoons do get awards very easy. Collabs for example. You get 10 people in a collab to have all there friends vote 5 you are guaranteed to get a high score if the quality is decent. Newgrounds is the best flash animation site. So no matter how much you hate the voting system or the popularity of certain flashes, get over it. Things are gonna be that way, and we have to deal with it because newgrounds is the best.
QUESTION OF THE FRONT POST:
DID YOU PAY FOR FLASH?
I DIDN'T
