AnacondaHL posted:Yes, that would be one way to do it, and that's essentially what the policy used to be like 3-4 years ago. Even with Only proper punctuation, it's not like low effort trolling would go away. You'd just be catching a lot of legitimately funny posters in the crossfire. edit: also imo, two mods or one mod, the rules mod should be someone who doesn't give a poo poo about anime, like Xylo. That way there's no people being probated because they didn't like Legend of the Galactic Heroes (a thing zorak actually did)

PotU posted:also make a thread to talk about anime that arent currently running because its stupid to have one for every single show. sometimes i just want to constantly post about how good k-on is. i, however, dont make threads a lot of the currently running anime shows don't even need threads tbh; like adtrw could just have "harem animes that only that one poster watches; i can't remember there name right now, but you know who i mean" thread instead of actually having a new thread for each anime filled with posts like" "episode 1 was promising I'll give it a three episode trial" "episode 3 was the onsen episode" "its super amazing how everyone died in the last episode"

With zorak gone there may never be a season thread again unless someone does it. It will not be me tho.

Anime Thread" would be a great idea! In fact, an all-out general "ADTRW chat" thread might be a good, fun thing for all those people who just want to casually chitchat about nothing in particular, with an anime/manga spin. I feel that the Season threads already serve this purpose to some extent, but it'd be good to have one here. BSS and GWS and various other discussion forums have something like that, and I don't see why Zorak continually declined that idea.

A general anime chat thread (like a "what are you currently watching" thread) only works if it's properly moderated and people make threads if something is discussed for a while. So in the thread if there was like a page worth of chat for, say, FMA then someone should make a FMA thread otherwise Zorak's right and the subforum'd stagnate. It should also be for stuff that's finished airing (currently airing anims would go in a season thread for 3 ep test or have their own threads, same as ever). The aim would be to generate chat, but to avoid all anime chat being concentrated in the one thread. E: Season thread would remain as the 3 ep test/news thread.

General chat threads were prohibited for two reasons: A. they promote clique-y behavior and B. we already have an IRC channel (#gattai on irc.synIRC.net) for general bullshit chat. Of course, we're a pretty angry and bitter clique in #gattai and our ops rule with an iron fist. Come stop by and say hi.

From my experience with the megathreads -- like the Misc Shounen thread, and my very own Surreal Daily Life Manga Thread -- people are fairly diligent about making threads about shows that get a good deal of discussion. I do agree that the season megathreads should be used for three-episode tests and so on to gauge interest, and for seasonal anime-related news. However, they currently also fulfill some of the purpose of a general chat thread, so it would be nice if their true purpose could be clarified.

I'm sure a general chat thread would be less cliquey than IRC. The general chat thread would work as an experiment, much like the worst anime of 2014 thread I did (which worked and is totes coming back in December). If it works there's a good new thread, if it doesn't there's a "close" button the OP or mod can hit. There's no reason to not at least try it.

They seriously just banned me from #gattai for saying there aren't enough shoujo threads on ADTRW, great channel. (I did make some joke about LOGH being shounen-ai but I was just trying to fit in, really though all the characters in LOGH are ripped straight from a shoujo/shounen-ai book, if you have never thought about the boys in that anime kissing you must watch anime for different reasons than me.) Also isn't #gattai like specifically a robot channel, I didn't know it was the official channel for the entire board. Edit: I guess this dick spacious guy is trolling the channel or something, I'm not with him. Stalin-Chan fucked around with this message at 18:21 on Jan 9, 2015 |

I realize I'm not the ADTRW mod and whoever the new mod is they can reverse this when they take over, but in this transition period I would ask that we all refrain from posting IRC logs, in the interest of not boring me out of my mind.
