Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

As you've probably noticed by now, we have been accepted on the internet within the People's Republic of China. Bully for you. This has meant some sweeping changes to the way things work around here, so I'll try to keep this brief:

We will find other ways to communicate, while the government of Chairman Fulp... or is that Chairman Tom works out a way to peacefully co-exist, or run us all over in tanks.

I for one am happy for this, as it has left the General forum in a clean and peaceful state. Although I am still pending for approval for posting rights, albeit limited just to the Wi/Ht forum, I think that we can move on from the nuclear wasteland that is General and actually lead meaningful lives.

As you may notice, my time on Newgrounds will reduce quite significantly from now, as I Chinese Politics interferes with my own rational beliefs. As a Tibetean monk, it is my sacred duty to set fire to myself in protest at this move.

So, to all of you out there, whoever you are, it's been a nice time knowing you (or not) and may your god (or gods) go with you whatever you choose to do with your life.

I obediently await approval for posting rights for making a LUL list. No rush, I do not wish to anger our benevolent Chinese masters.

I do, slitty eyed monkeys >:(

We can communicate via our userpages. You can't comment on anything here, but just write back on my userpage. This should be fun.

Also, I love this april fool (yes yes, the word filter will change that ;) But I guess you know what I mean). Lots of effort went into this one. Much better than NG poop we got last year.

Long live Tom Fulp!

Chairman Fulp Fulp? Have you been beaten again for your sins?

Apr. 1, 2009 | 8:37 AM Bahamut says:

Sure, why not.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 11:37 AM Coop83 responds:

We need to gather our most prized of resources - gasoline, zippo lighters and old men, who love to sweep floors, while being wiser-than-thou.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 9:49 AM Bahamut says:

You can now respond to this.

I'm going to get raped by the whole of China. I'm going to take some of those fuckers with me!

All your rice belongs to Beijing.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 11:39 AM Coop83 responds:

That's alright, I eat pasta and potatoes as my carbohydrates of choice :P

"Chairman Fulp Fulp? Have you been beaten again for your sins?"

Well, at least I did not write "Chairman Chairman Fulp" like you did in the news post. :P

Apr. 1, 2009 | 6:51 PM Coop83 responds:

Ah, the joys of being able to have three innocent letters changed into something else. Tom must be having a right laugh at our expense :P

Apr. 1, 2009 | 2:19 PM Sir-Nuts says:

Mind if I test some thing in your page?

Newgrounds.

Tom Fulp.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 6:52 PM Coop83 responds:

Yes, someone has been at the anti-capitalist filter again...

Apr. 1, 2009 | 2:21 PM Sir-Nuts says:

I'm done testing. Sorry for all the inconvenience I brought to your page.

LONG LIVE TOM!

Apr. 1, 2009 | 6:54 PM Coop83 responds:

No, this is the homepage of the Tibetan Gentleman's Club - we strive to bring our protest to the people of Newgrounds. Now sit down and burn yourself!

Apr. 1, 2009 | 3:13 PM BobbaQ says:

Why does my bloody text keep getting altered?! Screw those commies :(

Apr. 1, 2009 | 6:54 PM Coop83 responds:

Need a light?

Apr. 1, 2009 | 5:04 PM NewsReporter says:

This layout is fascinating, isn't it Coop? If only they were to implement a Corriegrounds, then my life would be complete.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 6:58 PM Coop83 responds:

Fortunately, the Americans and Chinese haven't had to be subjugated to English soap operas. That would indeed be a travesty of justice.

Petrol isn't cheap these days, so i siphoned what i could.

Apr. 2, 2009 | 3:02 AM Coop83 responds:

Good man. We will never surrender!

Apr. 1, 2009 | 7:55 PM SpeedMetalSandwich says:

Also, for the greatest of all justice, and easier communication, let us all come together and congregate at the OLD newground's chat.

Apr. 2, 2009 | 3:03 AM Coop83 responds:

Hmm... old chat, you say? Sounds a bit... revolutionary. I think I'll just have to post a live feed of myself burning on Stickam.

Apr. 2, 2009 | 3:22 AM SpeedMetalSandwich says:

Stickam works to. Also, so does posting!

But my fingers are to burnt to post...

Apr. 2, 2009 | 8:02 AM Coop83 responds:

You try posting while wearing a thumb screw.

Holidays in Chinese Prisons are great value for money, but the transfers can be time consuming, along with the optional torture. Speak to your travel agent for more information.

Can we see your cock now?

Apr. 6, 2009 | 4:08 AM Coop83 responds:

I am not Dr. Manhattan. If I was, maybe I would become so detached from humanity that I would neglect clothing to show off my giant blue cock.

Apr. 7, 2009 | 5:18 AM Metal-Therapy says:

Happy birthday, Coop. :)

Apr. 7, 2009 | 9:31 AM Coop83 responds:

Thanks very much - see the resurrected thread in General about it - we're onto the third year of Birthday celebrations now :)

Apr. 9, 2009 | 12:45 AM Metal-Therapy says:

Holy shit! Coop's been Modded?! That's a hell of a Birthday present. Congrats!

Apr. 9, 2009 | 4:08 AM Coop83 responds:

Yeah, I thought so. it's almost a shame that Wade didn't ask me on the 7th, isn't it?

Apr. 9, 2009 | 2:00 AM phantomlassuk says:

You been made a mod well done!

Apr. 9, 2009 | 4:09 AM Coop83 responds:

Yeah, I know. If you're going to be made a mod, you'll know about it before the general public does. Wade asked me last night by PM and the gold aura was here waiting for me when I got up.

Apr. 23, 2009 | 9:20 PM gfoxcook says:

Maybe these past few years, but when I became the 10th NG BBS mod back in October 2003, I received no heads up.

Now, back in those days, I used NG BBS every single day, so I found out fairly quickly, but I'm sure there were some normal users who had noticed my name in the "mod list" at the bottom of the forum page before I got online... plus, I was modded by liljim, not Wade, and due to him being in the UK, he prolly modded me while I was asleep, and thus it took at least a few hours for me to notice, further increasing the number of users who noticed before I did. #;-}>

Well, you stayed out of the loop for longer than I did :P
