new forum in construction

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Animes : One Thread

a few people and myself are considering making an anime board of forum (either at the mo) for everyone here to go on, but where flamers and trouble makers can be controlled and dealt with. but before that, we wanted to ask if there were people willing to join that forum. catagories would be different types of anime, and u could post with the same questions that u have now etc.

but a few questions first: 1. would people actually go on that board, or just ignore it and stay here? 2. if u did want a cool forum, what would u want to call it? (basically name suggestions!)

LOL. but hopefully this incorporate more people so we can have more members and a more active moderating group.

everything is currently in planning, but if successful we'll go ahead with this. we want to know though if people would actually visit it (and maybe in preference to here?)

ergg, don't mention my site, it sucks right now. Anyway, I'll be in, in fact, I even mentioned this idea various times. Heck, I would host if I could. This forum is really getting...messed up, what with all the repetitive threds and the idiots like unit one.

I would like to be a mod though.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

Hmm...seems everyone wants to be mods and admins. I guess we'll have to figure out how many we need. Oh well, glad to be getting the support. And please if you feel creative give us some suggestions for a name. ^_^

Why not call it after your two or three favorite anime?

Mine would be Kenshin, Bastard, Video girl Al

So the forum would be called "Kenshin's Bastard video forum" but thats just plain offensive!!

I hope your favorite Animes have a decent name.

This just came to me how about the Rurouni forum? The wondering forum where all is welcome? kinda has a ring to it(i think anyway)

Nap time again

Laters all

Hey it would be really easy for the forum board to remove these ppl. Oh yeah, n/m, they could just as easily take anyones email.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

great idea! i'm sick of those perverted postings. too bad. this forum could have been a huge success. i think the majority of the pp really visit with a decent interest in anime.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

Oh yeah it would be cool if you could add a page for missing eps requests and/or host a bittorrent upload page maybe?

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

I can't think of any names, every one I think of seems to be taken, but anyone with anime or ani in the title will problably be fine.^_^ Animeplace, Animecenter, etc. So, will this forums be on a free server, or will it be hosted by someone? And if hosted, any plans on what kind of forum (Invison, YaBB, phpbb, EZBoard, vB, D.C., UBB) it will be?

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003


man, if there is a forum for anime fans without those idiots like unit one and nick, i would definitely join the forum. im so sick and tired of those bakas trying to get a g/f in anime forum. unit one and nick should just hook up and stroke each other.

LoL now I see where you found my forums out at. It was my email account. Because I switched Isps, I was logged in as a user I don't usually use, and that email was in my cookies for this place.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

And as for the forum, either way I suggest Invision.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

Okay, most likely the message board we create will require users to register, so when you register and create a name for yourself NO ONE can steal it from you unless they get your password. Sorry if you don't like that idea, but it's really the one of the only ways to keep flamers off of the board. ^_^

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

Actually, I think that is better.

-- Anonymous, June 28, 2003

i would join and ,yes i would go to the board instead of ignoring it and staying here.

Oh, and thanks for the suggestions on where to get boards at Kenji. ^_^

yep kenji, that's how i discovered your forum - by your email lol.

"What is in a name..." Ideas: AniVision VisionAni (sounds like vigilante hehe... which is why this new forum is being created...) Envision AnimeLife

Well, that's all I can think of... and I have no clue how to name a forum, mind you (i guess "Ani" is common in names, as stated above?). I like Anivision the most.

BTW, I'm there if you do make a new forum. :o) Will people be able to post if they are visitors, though (with the option to edit content, of course)? I did like that about this forum--to help anyone who surfed on.

It depends on the kind of forum we get. On some you can post as a vistor and other's you can. However if vistors can post you risk having flamers, and that's one of the things we're trying to avoid. However, we could try and risk it and see how it goes. ^_^

-- Anonymous, June 29, 2003

Perhaps you can do what I did with the one I have. I left one part open to guests.

-- Anonymous, June 29, 2003

lol, this is great! thanks for ur support guys! but whats funniest at the moment is that this thread doesnt have some random person flaming it yet!

*knocks on wood* no, I'm not superstitious... ;o)

... *looks at most recent posts...* I think we should hurry...

-- Anonymous, June 29, 2003

I think that's a great idea if you open another anime forum. And like all the other people, I'm getting sick of unit and those other fags. Anyway, do you already have a forum?

-- Anonymous, June 29, 2003

We haven't created the forum yet. We wanted to see if anyone would go to it first. Now we're just trying to decide on a name for it and where we are going to host it. Thanks for the support. ^_^

-- Anonymous, June 29, 2003

just a general suggestion for a title of the forum: add a japanese word before or after the word "anime". arigatou-anime, anime-banzai, himitsu-anime, mainichi-anime, thats all i can think of right now bleh. for those of you who don't know what these mean: arigatou=thanks, banzai=hurray/yay, himitsu=secret, mainichi=everyday... uh huh yep i'm an otaku

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

oh oh! heise-anime / anime-heisei. Heisei=calmness/tranquility,peace etc. mmmm a peaceful forum. i cant wait.

-- Anonymous, June 30, 2003

BANZAI!!!!!!!!!!!

i love that word!!!

-- Anonymous, July 01, 2003


If you don't want to use a free forum host or website, and don't have a place to host it yet, I may have found somewhere. Only problem is we may not get much bandwidth and space.

-- Anonymous, July 01, 2003

yeah, kirara told me that u found it. i reckon we should try that, cos at least we shall give it a shot without too much hassle to start with, and we cant really expect thousands of members to join up at once!

i reckon we should give it a shot once we come up with a name, and place a link on a .tk site with an identical name! (in the meantime ill continue trying to sort out the other one!)

cheers for ur help kenji!!!!
