When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join? Why did you choose the username Provoke?
"I found the good olde NG from a close friend of mine back in 09. She brought me on here to watch Salad Fingers (not a big fan as I used to be, but I still enjoy it from time and time again), and then after watching all of the series at the time, I started exploring around the Series And Collections, watching a ton of stuff including Ego City and Retarded Animal Babies. I didn't make a account until the start of 12', and my username was originally TheCrimsonWidow, but after a long computer break, I changed it with the help of Lintire. He thought up the name, I just used it."

You have been a user of Newgrounds since once year. Do you think that you changed over the time you were here, as user, or also in real life?
"I started out being quite a attention whore, trying to act a idiot just to get attention. Then, after a fellow user told me off, I decided to try to act dry. But after awhile of that, I suddenly started acting like myself: Quick to a pun, yet I don't judge others badly. I hardly changed in my personal life, except maybe gaining a few pounds (I feel fat ;_;)"

Are there any other users that you like, and how do they affect you?
"I made a few friends here, including Natick, Emma, Xenomit, Viper, Lintire, and others. I like to say they didn't effect me, but I have to admit some of them were very influential to me in a ton of ways, like Lintire helping me with my name change or Natick being overly hilarious with his gifs and such. I don't know how long they will be here, but I certainly enjoyed my time with them."

Are there any users that you would consider enemies or that you just don't like?
"Not very much, I tend to not provoke anyone I don't know unless I have something nice to say. Me and Slint have these edgy wars calling each other edgy in funny or annoying ways, but I wouldn't say I hate him I JUST HATE HOW HE IS MORE EDGY THAN ME GOD DAMMIT"

What is your opinion about the forums? Is there one forum that you prefer? And is there another forum user that you want to see getting interviewed by me?
"I absolutely love the forums, especially the general forums, since you can find the funniest people there. You can also occasionally get a thoughtful thread where you have to fully read through it and answer the question serious or just shit all over the thread. I also love joke threads and user gossip, I eat that stuff up. Oh, and interview Slint if you haven't already."

I guess that you have an opinion about the moderators of Newgrounds. Do you think that they do a great job or not?
"Mods are a touchy subject for me, since I don't know if I speak out I'll ruin my ban-less record. Some of my favourites mods actually do close threads, like Timmy or BFP. I haven't really seen a abusive mod, but I heard stories of BigBadRon and EyeLovePoosy being horrible mods, so I'm glad for being around the good ones."

Would you like to become a moderator on Newgrounds? If so, what kind of moderator?
"I would love to be a moderator, since there are tons of time I see shit threads and other mods aren't online. I would be a type of moderator who will try to do the job right, and still try to have some fun on the BBS instead of turning into a shell of a good person."

The redesign happened last year. Tell me what you think about it. What do you like and what is not so good? What kind of features would you like to see added in the future?
"I hope to see a better chat, since this one sucks the left nut of Adam Sandler. Oh, and I didn't really see much of the old design, so my opinion is basically worthless."

You stated that you are a writer and voice actor. Did you ever consider doing voice acting for some Newgrounds flashes?
"Before I moved out of my parent's, I used my brother's microphone to practice voice acting and play Minecraft with friends. Since I made my account around that time, I thought I could be one of those female voice actors here on NG. However, at this moment I do not have a microphone, but I can assure you I am working on getting one. Just taking things one step at a time."

Every person has secrets. Can you tell one of yours or something else that we didn't know about you yet?
"I hate to admit it, but I always wanted to be a comedian. I wanted to be a deadpan one too, which I have not seen done well so far, no matter how many people tried. I also have some secrets best kept secret, unless around girlfriends *wink wink*"
