If I may be so bold, it's that sort of closed attitude towards the thoughts and opinions of others that can prove detrimental to the community. It's not like I enjoy writing suggestions. They take time and careful thought and people do it because they care about this community. I know lots of people gripe and moan but sometimes some people stop to give constructive feedback. Don't let the griping and moaning drown out the good constructive criticism. We all need it to develop further and overcome previous flaws, after all.

It might've been more welcome had we not just laid to rest a long thread on such issues in the previous forum, but now we've discussed things among ourselves, are all loaded up with ideas and ready to try this 'running a forum properly' thing for ourselves. Many of our ideas coincide with yours, they're common sense after all (the main issue with previous forum being that no one really put in any effort to improve it, not that they didn't know how.)

Thanks anyway, we will do our best this time around, and the expanded moderation team should help keep things that way.

I understand. Sorry if I was bringing up something unwanted. Again, I didn't mean to lecture, they were just humble suggestions. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I for one will do my best as a member.

Thanks again and best of luck.

Pretty sure you keep the stuff you archive somewhere or something.

Anyhow, I see there's still animosity against our fanfiction RPGs. That's fine. If it's all right with everyone, I'll manually transfer everything onto a new thread here (and keep the use of the 'w' word to an absolute minimum). Is that all right?

In my opinion that story needs a cleanup since there are multiple story routes exist and the total storyline is getting bigger and bigger.

by Clean-up I mean to rearrange all the portions of the story base on the time that the event happened (Chronologically, hope I didn't get this one wrong.) And create a "What is going on currently" Portion at the Top.

for the wording issue, just replace the "w" ones with the word "partners", all should be fine :) 

PS: I have archived my route though.

Yeah, looks like a good a time as any to fix the chronology. I'll do that tonight. I've already rewritten the first post of the discussion thread and it's in the archive now. Will repost it later.

By the way, temporary thread has been set up here.

Oh look a new forum!

Which means a new start!

Well then, can I ask if I can repost the waifu thread, but disallowing all RP talks and sex-related crap that the other thread had?

And if this is accepted, ALL CHARACTERS ARE RESET AND AVAILABLE TO CLAIM FOR OTHERS!

Alright so we finally moved, now I guess I'll have to haul all the topics that are key from over here (by remaking them)...

Yo.  I'm back.

Was considering registering a different name.  Decided to register this one first, so that people know me.

Ara, didn't notice the move until I got to college today. My was I surprised~ This will gimme a chance to rework some of the things I had going in UGW and that fanfiction I've been procrastinating working on.

In anycase seems like a pretty nice place to settle in to, good work everyone.

Hi everyone. I was Touhoufreak. I have decided to change my nick into Zengeku instead which was the name i use for my replays. It's also a lot better than "Touhoufreak" anyway. And a hell of a lot more original.

I haven't changed one bit since the earlier MoTK but i'll do my best to help keeping these forums as clean as possible by trying to avoid bullshit. (I'll just mark as a footnote that i won't post anything about non-touhou shmups. They don't exist in my world anymore.)

So are the old threads going to be migrated by admins or we do it ourselves. If we do it ourselves, how do we do it? Or are the archives there to stay?

This is why I love anonymous boards - I always suck trying to make up an original name. This time I came up with this by ROT13'ing my surname. It looks like a spambot. But it's a bit cool... I think...
By the way, isn't everything a bit too small on these new forums?

After being gone for two weeks, I was a bit confused when my log-in didn't work... But when I saw what happened, I think of this as a pleasant surprise. Good job to all the janitors and mods, and anyone else who may have helped.

We decided hardly anyone made good use of them, so they weren't enabled except in Cirno's Perfect Math Class.

There's no appropriate thread yet, so I'll quickly say that health comes first, Mafia second. I was going to have my sister post and let people know, but that didn't pan out due to her being off on trips all the time. I'll give a full apology later; I can at least promise that.

OT: What about the old popular polls, like the Who Would You Sleep With Thread and such? Even if they became ridiculous, a janitor could always delete spammy threads, right? It just doesn't feel right with the inability to make a poll outside of the Classroom for other discussions.
If the issue lies with the forum software or some other technical aspect I wouldn't know about, then that's perfectly understandable.

If you want a poll added, you can ask one of us, and if we think it's a good idea, we'll add it for you.

Not happening, ask a mod to make a poll for you.
