We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
You guys should do more game reviews.
Too much weeb-y stuff.

Then get more people who are interested in writing reviews for other stuff to actually write them.

At the moment it seems like only the anime community is motivated enough to write articles.

Well obviously you anime folk play video games if you're here.
Write about some of those?

Are you supposed to PM a mod if you want it moved there?

If I was to do a video game review I'd much prefer to make a video one. However I don't have the expertise to create one, nor a capture card for console games.

Just because the anime community here will write reviews and first impressions on Anime, doesn't mean they're comfortable (or enjoy) writing them about video games or other things. You can't force people to do something if they don't want to do it. If you do you'll end up with a half-assed product without any soul in it.

It would be much better to get someone who is interested in doing those kinds of articles to create one instead of forcing individuals outside of their comfort zone.

It was just a suggestion since more than half of the news board is anime reviews now. We're an off topic forum that originated from a video game developer's website. The fact that the front page almost always has something anime on it may or may not give the wrong impression.

Anime was always a significant community on the Flood though. Like I said though, get the other communities together to write about things they're interested in if you want other kinds of articles on there.

We can't put articles about other things in there if they don't exist.

Let me also put it this way: because of the fact that the News board is now just flooded with anime threads, I'm drawn away from it now- and since I have no interest whatsoever and there's nothing else, I tend to miss important announcements.

I've almost been thinking that the reviews should be stuck into a subforum because I find the announcements fairly important.

That's why when there's a big announcement it's posted in the Index and sometimes at the top of your page.

The smaller announcements are important too.

At least they're doing reviews.
anime or not, we don't have to HAVE reviews about games just because we came from a gaming company.

And I'm sure people are reviewing games now. It just takes longer. I mean a game has a lot in it to look at.

Plus its not really giving the wrong impression, I dont think it does.. maybe..

Like what? Generally no small announcements are made and almost every thread in created by Cheat is posted in the Index.

My answer remains the same. I can't put articles about other subjects in there if they don't exist. I'm going to need something to put in there if I'm to diversify the news section.

Get people together who want to write about other subjects and have them write something up for me to put in there. At the moment the only group that seems to be doing that is the anime one, so since really only anime articles are being submitted, that's all that's going to be showing up.

Give me more content to work with and you'll see a more diverse news section.

I think you might be misunderstanding.
A subforum would be inside the News board, and titled Reviews. You click it, and it takes you to the board that has all the reviews. Those can all still appear on the front page, but they won't be mixed in with the forum bulletins. Since it doesn't exist, it would need to be created. So that's a job for an admin.

Anyways. You guys want to keep writing your anime reviews, that's fine. I'm just hoping for more diversity. I'm not much of a writer myself so I'm just throwing my suggestions out there.

This should probably be moved to Septagon since this thread is actually rather constructive. Or not, I don't know. Maybe I'm rambling like a crazy person because of sleep deprivation.

As pointed out earlier though everything important is typically stickied at the top until it's run it's course and is no longer relevant or in the case of smaller announcements the news board is so slow that those end up staying at the top anyway until they're old news. Now I'm not opposed to your suggestion (if it can be done), but at the moment I don't believe it's that big of an issue.

Cheat and Isara may have a different opinion though and when it comes to site design its their words that matter, not mine.

Well yeah, this is all just suggestions.
Also it's doable. Should be pretty damn simple, too. But yes, it would ultimately be up to the admins.

Good point, but we aren't an anime site.
However, it's not up to the anime fans to do stuff they're not willing to do.

It shouldn't.
