re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Really, the key point behind the lack of support from Daisy and me about game threads is that when a forum is pretty much all game threads (or supported only by game threads), you could say it's pretty much all spam. Also, what member would sign up if they wanted to discuss Death Note and found that they couldn't, they would likely leave. Game threads are sometimes fun but it's not what new members come for. =)

Game threads are alright, as long as there's a good deal of discussion going on, and there's loads of great threads which still have loads of discussion value which no one has touched in a while in the last few pages from when things started because they've been pushed down by game threads. If you guys want to get more stuff in here there also needs to be discussion to support it.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Yeah, makes sense. No problem.

And part of my reason for making the Series Index and Information Thread is so that new members can see that the members of the forum are knowledgeable and can come here over other places to get information and participate in discussion on the series, which game threads wouldn't show.


[I'm currently in the process of making a thread which will contain summaries of the Death Note Anime, Manga, Movies and Novel, profiles of most of the characters, where to find the series, and other information. It should help newcomers to get into the series in any of its forms, and provide a reference source for everyone else. As well, the character profiles will be created by the members of the forum, so that everyone can participate.]

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

That would be fun, but there seem to be several Death Note RPs in the Feature Role-Playing Forum already. And we'd need a mod to control a thread like that.

Welcome to the forum, though, Skyee!


So everyone go bump make constructive posts in some of the discussion threads. See my post on the previous page or the Thread Index for some links.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Just a heads up-- I'm FINALLY out of school, so I will be focusing more time onto the forum. ^_-

FRP needs for me to hold it's hand though, as there are a number of people breaking the rules. So I advise, to anyone who might participate in that forum... pleeeease follow the rules. XD
I want to revel in the Death Note forum too! X3

Just as Epic said-- There are currently two Death Note RP's in the Feature Role Play forum. One that's run by Lei (For those of you who don't like to write really, really, really long entries, I don't recommend joining Lei's RP. She doesn't wanna sound mean, but it's her baby, and she only wants people who will write with the utmost quality. ) And.... another one, that I'm not participating in, but doing anything to it out of spite would be an abuse of authority. XP ( )

Although.... The other one might be a little too.... far-fetched for DN's standards.
((She is referring to the fact that the characters seem to have powers. >_>))

So we have two very different RP's, and unfortunately, I can't allow any more than that... because that also breaks the rules. ((FRP has so many rules... I'm happy, and I'm even happier when people actually follow them, though. ))

***

Hummmmm.... If in the future, we still don't get a mod... I dunno. XD I believe the Harvest Moon forums received permission to create a role-play before they were appointed a mod. (Saig! )

Still, unless we have people who will absolutely follow a certain standard, and not get angry when you tell them that they messed up or need to fix something... It probably will not work. ^ ^;


~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Onto Death Note Forum Business:

I'm super sorry for the delay, Epic. First things first, I'll try to send you the character images (Manga, anime, and movie)-- Followed by L and Watari. If there are any other characters that you haven't received yet, I'll be happy to tackle those as well. ^ ^; What I'm attempting to do is write an in-depth biography of L based on the Anime/manga, movies, AND novels. So it should be interesting~ (You might find out things you didn't know! >=D)

By Next weekend, I'm planning to have the Autism thread up as well as the second part of the personality quiz. I'll also be posting the first fanart challenge, to see if anyone actually participates.

Then, I will be plaguing the discussion threads with my long, overly drawn out thoughts.

((Other than that, Do we have any other thoughts on a graphics request thread? I would be happy to oversee it, as I have stated. It might not be a serious discussion thread, but.... There are a number of people who might want a specific kind of avatar or banner. ))

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Great, everyone's exams are gonna end and then mine are gonna start.


Do we need an RP atm anyways? I say focus on the discussion threads. I'd rather see a fanfiction contests, tbh...No offence, it's just that it would allow more people to participate, and be a bit easier to handle.

But there's not enough activity right now for either. Let's fix that.


A request thread would also be great...if we have any people to take requests.

How about a Death Note Fanfiction thread? Or a Death Note character(main)thread?

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Again, a fanfiction thread/contest would need a mod; though I do already have some ideas for one.


As for the second...Not quite sure what you mean. If you're talking about something like the Character Comments thread, then that suffices. Otherwise...?

Though it was suggested to create a few separate discussion threads for Kira, the Task Force, etc. But with the current level of activity, let's try and keep the Character Comments alive. I'm still working on the SII Thread. Unfortunately, my exams start this week.

*sighs* Mine too .___. Here's to getting a C in Science.

A fanfiction would really bring some posts in, but as Epic said, we need a mod. (If only we had mod...) Maybe we start a thread about what you think'll happen next.(Wait... I think that already exists.) Or maybe a thread that all about discussing the rules of Death Note? Or a thread that's something like a voting thingie, where you vote which one you like better, the show, the movie of the manga and why... so we all know which one is the best. That's really all I've got right now. And the scrapbook thread; but it might not work cause there isn't enough graphics artists around here.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

I totally had an idea for a (Bi-)Weekly Poll awhile ago, and thought up some questions. But a mod would be needed...and for one of those we need ACTIVITY!


Yes, there is a Sequel Theory Thread.


A rule thread would be great...but I don't quite have all the rules compiled for the SI&I thread. Funk_o_matic's helping me. I think it would be a lot more interesting if the complete set was listed. Give us 'til next week sometime. I had to return most of the series to the library, and can't get the whole set yet.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

I think people should be able to make a fanfantic by now. It may help to get some activity here.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

The problem was that fanfictions threads have the potential to create a lot of spam, which would need to be controlled.


Think of one of luffy's posts...and then imagine an entire thread of that.

Example - Warning: PG-13 or higher!

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

There's a lot of things I think that can be done which really haven't been at the moment. I'm surprised that a forum which has sprung to life from one of the active threads in Anime has actually fallen silent.

- Death Note for newbies, create a guide of useful jargon and information to how things in this movie/anime works.
- Go back to the Anime forum and keep up concurrent discussion there. Something comes up which is interesting, post a thread here on it.
- Bump up old threads, there's only three pages and some threads got, like, one or two posts and were then forgotten.
- Alternate media discussion if possible. If it's in book form and the like with differences, there's got to be some discussion you can bring to the forum.

re: Death Note: Making a Good thing... Better?

Why does it have to be a contest? What if someone just wanted to make a fanfanctic, but then get in last? They may feel bad about it.
