Anime/Manga Forum

Look I'm sick of people flaming these. Only post if it's constructive.

I was wondering if we could still petition for the Anime/Manga forum, or if there still isn't enough threads.

I think It's a good idea, although I dont even watch Anime or draw Manga.

I still think it's a way for people to express their opinions with other fans.

yup, the need is definitely there plus the flaming is stupid.

I can see why they don't make a forum, but if there was one I am very certain members will immediately start getting creative in the forum, making lots of posts. If it happened with Flight Sim. it'll happen with anime, heck I'll even browse the forum :P

This is like what the 3rd thread? I doubt they'll listen to it. What's wrong with the Movies/Television section anyway?

It's a multi discussions theme, it's an art form, comic form, film and television genre.

If after two threads they still haven't made one what's the point in even trying a third? They're not gonna listen to us. :)

Just stick with the Television section I guess.

We actually found our own section that no-one uses to post about it >3

Also, they said if we started getting more posts about Anime we could petition again without a lock.

I see six in the last week, and it gets exponentially smaller after that so no I can't say that you guys took up the challenge of proving us wrong :P I think its fine how it is.

I haven't seen any flaming reported, I don't know whether these post reports simply bypass me but that would suggest that you aren't too fussed about the flaming. If its reported, it'll be removed, and with the new trolling announcement most likely be insta-banned.

That forum is all - except for one thread - Anime and Manga posts.

Also, if you don't want to make a new forum maybe rename that forum as Anime and Other Entertainment? :3

Would you be happy if we added the word Anime to the television forum? :P

I don't think they will, anime is a type of film and television genre, aswell as an art form for comics and portraiture :P

It's fine as it is, if they done this then they should make a parent forum for every new programme/film/cartoon that comes out.

Anime is a very large genre of television, theres no tv show called "Anime". Learn.

:S *Confused*

Anyway the art form would go under the graphics section.

Then you'll get forums surrounded by anime if you did that, the idea of mentioning anime in the "Other Entertainment" forum was a good idea, either in description or the name of the forum.

The forum is far too popular with other users, and when we post threads there we get flamed or other things.

No one makes threads about Books. Renaming it to "Anime and Other Entertainment" would be amazing :D

Ive only just really got into Anime but i think its awesome and a section for it would be great :D

An anime sub-section in "Other Entertainment" would go far.

I mean user-created anime would go there.

The new forum would be "Anime, Books, and Other Entertainment", one big forum.

(Don't hold me to this, this is one opinion. It has to go past the rest of the management too.)

The new forum should be 'Anime, Manga and Other Entertainment.' Manga are a type of books afterall, but you can post about manga nearly everywhere on this forum. Wondn't it be much easier confining it to one place.
Drawings of manga can obviously still be posted in the graphics section if they wanted, but myself and I'm sure other users aswell, would like to be able to discuss manga in one single section.

Would seperate the two really work though? User-created anime may aswell stay with the rest of the anime, so if users want to compare their art to a type of anime artist they only need to go to the same forum to do so :)

True. We never wanted to create a new forum because we already had that forum for "Other entertainment". But if renaming it made people happy, then that's what we will go with :).

To be honest, that forum IS an anime forum, nothing else appears in there so... Yeah :P

Exactly - ruining it for 'other entertainment'

That's what's wrong with the forum management, they're too lazy to make a forum for it and prevent it disrupting other forums which already run well.

There's still a chance of other entertainment, even though no such thing exists by the looks of it :P

Please sir, can I have some more? Some more wild speculation that is.

Base your comments in fact.

Don't spew randomly. The decision not to create a forum has nothing to do with lazyness. If you had taken a minute to ask why we didn't, maybe you would realize that we have reasons to do things, however in your utterly irrational state of mind you think, "I didn't get EXACTLY what I wanted, Ima throw a tantrum and throw blame on everyone."

Well, here's some food for though. A while ago, we recieved a warning from vBulletin that anything over X forums was a liability, and would impede the quality of the vBulletin forum. This includes subforums. Therefore, we immediately began taking steps to remove unwanted forums. We merged all the old staff forums and put them in a universal dump, and at that point we started combining forums at that point, if anyone remembers there were a bunch of forums combined.

Also, we realized that there were 300 VIP forums, and therefore we introduced the VIP Subforum thing, so people could still buy a sub forum and we weren't totally taking Subforums away from VIPs (only VIPs could buy the subbie subsc.) but we were improving the running quality of our vBulletin. This was actually in the announcement. (HEY! MAYBE THEY DIDN'T JUST DO IT TO MONEYGRUB AS WE'VE ACCUSED THEM A BUNCH OF TIMES, EVEN THOUGH IT SAID THAT IN THE ANNOUNCEMENT!!)

ADDITIONALLY, we have recieved many many complaints from users (and we can gauge from the result of the soon-finishing poll about it) about us having too many forums. Thus we are ALSO acting on user feedback.

Thus we are careful to scrutinize every request for a new forum to make sure we really need to add it. However, when we saw an opportunity to given Anime a home so to speak, by changing a name instead of adding a forum, giving users what they want and us making sure our forum ran well and our other users weren't upset by more forums, we took the opportunity.

So no, you're wrong, and your comment wasn't even close to being based on fact. Yes I've attacked you a little and I apologize, however when you speak with such inflammatory and offensive rhetoric I make the assumption that you are ready to recieve such rhetoric back, and if you can't, well then you shouldn't be dishing out what you can't take. But I am making assumptions now, I assume you can take it, you seem fairly mature apart from this bandwagon "management are lazy and corrupt" effect. I've tried to keep my response based in fact though.

Also, if you look back, the time we spent replying to anime/manga threads would far exceed the amount of time necessary to create a forum ;) If we didn't care or were trying to avoid work we would not post such lengthy and in depth responses ;)
