Asandir's interviews with Newgrounds forum users

When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join?

Jolly:

"I found NG in 2004 or 2005. I used to be semi-active on the Bethesda forums, the creators of Elder Scrolls/Fallout 3. One day I posted a video of an easter egg in Fallout 3 where if you opened this door it revealed a wall that simply said "Fuck". Apparently they don't like the word fuck very much, despite it being in their games, so they banned me until 2038. I was in need of a new forum to start posting on, so I came here."

Are there users that you like, and how do they affect you?

Jolly:

"I don't regularly talk to many users. I mainly talk to You, Luke, and Tateos, and I haven't been talking to you 3 very long, so it's barely affected me in any way, I guess."

Are there any users that you would consider enemies?

Jolly:

"No, I don't have any reason to dislike any users. I'm pretty sure there's a few users that hate me, but I honestly couldn't care less if they do or not."

You are a member of the Elite Guard Barracks, and currently in the position of the Records Officer. Would you kindly describe your work and how you think about the EGB?

Jolly:

"I can't really say much about it, because I've only been in the position for 1-2 weeks. I basically just manage the EGB roster and post the updates on the first of the month every month. I haven't posted a single roster yet."

As a regular user, you surely have an opinion about the Newgrounds forums. So could you please tell us about it?

Jolly:

"I don't like the general forum very much. There's way too many Pony/Religion/Threads that try (and fail) to be funny."

How do you think about the moderators of this site? Do you think that they are good or not?

Jolly:

"I don't have a problem with the mods. I never break any rules, so I don't have any reason to dislike them. I like Airslush the least of all the mods."

You have 4 flash submissions and 2 awards. Of which work are you most proud of?

Jolly:

"The only flash I actually did anything in was Putnam's Adventure, and all I did is draw a few levels for it in MS Paint. The other 3 I'm credited in for absolutely no reason."

I know that you are an icon moderator. Do you like this work, and would you like to be some other kind of moderator in the future?

Jolly:

"It's okay, I guess. I don't really do it much because I don't have any screenshot software on my main PC that takes high quality pics, but I try to do it when I don't have anything else to do.

The only mod type I have even the slightest interest in becoming is a review mod. I have a deity whistle on this account, silver whistle on my alt, and my reviews are decent. The other mod types are unappealing to me."

Newgrounds has good aspects, but also bad ones. Could you tell our readers one thing that you dislike about Newgrounds and another that you like the most?

Jolly:

"Dislike: Bandwagons, such as the brony shit. Like: I don't know, really. I like occasionally posting on the BBS, B/Ping, and getting medals occasionally, I guess."

What can we expect from you in the future, Jolly?

Jolly:

"Nothing at all. I'm a pretty boring person, honestly. I'll continue posting and B/Ping for quite a while, but that's it, really."
