Bringing Attention to a Serious Matter

<< < (5/10) > >>

tg:
Thank you for starting this thread, moezy-chan!  ^_^    I hope you can stay because you're one of the vets that help keep this forum running.  Pikari did say a lot of good things as well as others.    I understand the feeling when there are users who abuse the forum system by "spamming" a lot trying to gain post count.   This happens in a lot of forums.  There are always ways to improve forums.  A limit on the "What" board sounds nice.  As for trying to get back that "discussion seriousness" going on....     Maybe, some alternate sub-forums for some of the major TRC and CCS sections such as "theories", "relationship", etc. to keep discussions rolling instead of just "General TRC Discussion" and "Chatper Discussion"?   There's a way to expand discussion on a manga/anime series.

I'm still rather new around here so I have no ideal what it was like one year ago but I've been on plenty of other fandom message boards across the net for several years now.   That said, I have seen many good forums have an in-coming of new users and then, the dreaded "noobs" (although, I don't like using that term myself).  When I first came here, I was a bit surprised by some dis-organization among some of the threads.   I don't mean this as in a bad way but I've been use to other forums having a lot of sub-sections in the past.    In the Fan-Creations' section, the fan-arts mingle with fan-fiction.   ^_^    Just some of my 2-cents.            

Tenkuuken:
I'd like to admit a few things... A long time ago, I joined this forum, just like the way I joined other forums, simply because I hoping to find TRC mp3s and pictures. I was just beginning to like TRC back then, and besides, I thought, this would be a good place to meet and hear from new people who have much to know about TRC as I do.

Today, I admit to not knowing enough about TRC or CCS, and I admit to posting so much on the miscellaneous forums rather on the anime and manga-related forums, but that doesn't mean I'm losing interest or merely raising my post count. You see, as much as my personal involvement in this forum is concerned, I feel strange that I'm still involved in anime unlike most people my age. I find it somehow strange that I talk about TRC and CCSwith my coworkers (who reply to me with raised eyebrows), or bring Mokona and Larg plushies in the office, or have pictures of Sakura on my desktop and folder (and have people ask me about her, in return), or even watch Filipino-dubbed episodes of CCS in the office.

I guess this comes with my own personal grappling with my age. But what never changed is the opportunities I get in this forum to reach out to people and share a part of myself as well. As long as I can meet new people and talk to them, as long as I am among people I can talk and relate with, and as long as I am among fans like me, even if I'm not a rabid fan, then I would want to stay on and learn from everyone in this forum.

I don't really know how to express this, but I still insist that I'm too old for anime now, much more CCS/TRC. Then again, maybe it's CCS and TRC that binds people together, as in the case of this forum, and that's what I like about this place. Just my two cent's worth.

Robin Sena:
It depends on the user, the more information rolls around the better.

Though it can change, people need to work hard for it (unfortunately I'm not the comepletely analytical type.)

As with Tenkouken, CCS and TRC is the reason people gets to join here. It can also be its downfall. Which is which? It's up to us.

Crystal_Wings:
I am so guilty of not posting in serious conversations. I feel bad now.
I don't know if this is true to anyone else, but the reason I don't post many meaningful things is because I don't have time to read through all the posts and then write something important. I'm always busy, I guess I should try slowing down.
I also don't post in the TRC threads because I haven't read all the manga or been able to watch all of the show. The last time I went into a TRC thread I  got a few things spoiled for me. SO now I stay away.
From now on, I will try to post in topics other than the what board.

tg:
You don't hae to feel guilty for that.  If you have a good reason for not participating in either main sections, that's alright.    ^______^     The same goes for everyone else who don't post much in the other discussions.   I agree that it does depend on the users and what they do with their account.   I think moezy-chan is really aiming just at the people who are super super lazy.   Hehe...
