I got that report but I don't even know where to begin. Honestly that thread is almost 12 years old. Maybe it's time for a reboot and I can goldmine that one?

switched them to mangadex links, you can just copy paste it

code:

So you probably ended up here from that link in the shounen thread, and that's ok. Our specialty here is Shoujo and Josei manga, with a little bit of the sort of romance manga that feels out of place to talk about in the other threads.


Here's some titles that we voted our favorites:

I want to cause a revolution

What can I do? My savage

Just a couple of small thoughts

1. New years resolutions thread probably doesn't need to be pinned anymore. Too many pinned threads can feel cluttered.

2. This one is partially my fault for not getting around to it when I was a mod, but the Recommendation thread is really old and outdated. The ADTRWiki isn't even a thing anymore. It could definitely use an update.

3. This would be moreso on a thread by thread basis, but there are quite a few older threads that could potentially use refreshes as well, but I would just ask those thread regulars if they want a new thread or to keep the old ones around.

Otherwise I think you've been doing a good job of moderating this place Fluffdaddy. Thanks for the work you put in here.

Suggestion: the avs should be on the right of the posts and the posts should be in speech bubbles, making it appear as if the avs are saying the posts.

We did a few years ago yeah, Jeffrey set it up at the time as part of the ADTRW stylesheet. I feel like having it as a toggle in the user settings would be nice, but knowing how busy Jeff and Astral are, and what a coding nightmare that would be, it would probably be unlikely.

fyad did not like us having the speech bubbles and im fine leaving that to them. an alternate idea i brought up way back then but could def be revisited is maybe the box the post is in could look a manga infobox lol. also avatars on the right are required.

Current situation is fine. If any changes have a perma ik and/or two rotating iks staggered by a month for 2 mo terms.

More style sheets, I bet we have people who could make some good ones.

Right to left posts (optional).

What Plutonis posted for probes.

What kagaya posted about manga infobox posts.

Give me 10 grand.

:thanks:

Plutonis IK

also more stylesheet options, not entirely sure of the perimeters for them but once i figure it out i could prolly add one or two with my Photoshop prowess

So imma get with Jeff and Astral and find out what size a background needs to be and how we can get different css themes in here.

I also will see what size the probation icon needs to be and get back with everyone.

I will edit in those shojou titles when I get off work tomorrow.

I also think we should reboot some of the decade plus old threads like recommended. It's so out of date.

As adorable as that might be (save for the weird baby hands?) I can see this negatively reinforcing some of the preconceptions other folks have about "that loving weird anime forum".

I'm a DBZ dork so the probe icon should have HFIL in it somehow.

i would like to second that the probation image should not be a cute chibi girl

wasn't there just a jojo anime with characters in prison? idk if there's any funny behind bars images in there but surely we have less childlike images to work with

I don't like that image in particular but I also don't give a rat's rear end about what other people think of the forum. If they come in here to troll flame them back.

I'm not particularly interested in using entry level shonen for stuff either unless it's funny.
