    Hey, I have a few bugs, questions, and complaints. Don't mind me if all of this stuff has already been brought up.
    1. There is no space between "Location" and the user's location. Happens on all themes.
    2. I miss having long, rectangle avatars
    3. I'm not sure how to add an image to my profile, like backers could do before.
    4. Is there no longer an option to preview posts before posting?
    5. Does the user receive a notification when they are tagged with @?

    So, I'd say the Kirby games have my favorite music of any game franchise ever. And I originally wasn't going to post in this thread, simply because there's too much video game music I want to share, so I figured I'd just post some of my favorite Kirby tracks.

    Also I realized when I was making this post that Kirby's Epic Yarn has pretty much the greatest music ever, so I'll just link to a playlist (click here). Enjoy.

    The Major got a reaction from mjriedstra in Idea for another list (Anime recommendations)   
    I've had this idea for a sort of anime recommendations master list for a while now, but I was never sure how to go about making it. I'll try to explain me idea the best I can, and you guys can tell me if it seems like something we should do.

    The idea is to make a master list of titles recommended by the citizens of the Fuwanovel forums, sorted into categories, complete with descriptions and other information, links, and personal comments. It would be meant to serve as a place to start when you are looking for something to watch. Anybody could reply to the thread with the information for a recommendation to be added to the list. They wouldn't necessarily need to include things like description or pictures, I can do that. Title, category, and optional comments would be enough.

    In order to eliminate duplicate listings, each show would have to be limited to the single closest existing category. So if a series is Action and Psychological, it can only go under one category, not both. Otherwise we would end up with the same show being listed under several separate categories.

    I was hoping to include pictures in the information section of each show, since how a show looks can play a bit part in whether the individual is going to watch it. But we would hit the image limit too quick, and I'm not sure if there's a way to get around that.
     
    Here is a small example of what it could look like:
     
    Comedy

    Action

    • Trigun



    Romance

    Sci-Fi

    Drama
     
    Sports
     
    • Free!

    The Major reacted to EldritchCherub in Reincarnation: Lovely x Cation Translation Project [TLC REQUIRED]   
    Here's a new wordpress website that I have set up for this project that will host all future posts and patches for this project. I'll be updating some of the pages in upcoming days and also update the progress in its respective page. It may not be as aesthetically pleasing as the previous website but it'll have to do under the current circumstances. Rest assured, the project will continue as long as I have another translator to work with... or until I'm the last man standing.
     
    I'll put up the first post tomorrow, merely as a formality, but I'll be sure to update it whenever there's been any worthwhile progress to report. I'll also put up a post every month in order to notify people of the status of the team/project. It's become clear to me that another translator is needed in order to ensure efficient progress is made, so I'll be working with that goal in mind for the next couple of weeks.
     
    Without further ado, here's the link for the new website.

    I know Kurokusari said they would make something for you, but I just wanted to try my hand at it. Just for fun. If you would rather wait for Kurokusari to make one for you, though, that's fine.
     
    I'm always nervous about making things for other people. I know what I like, but not always what they like. But I try.

    The Major reacted to OriginalRen in Show By Post! A Musical Band Creation Activity   
    Some of us have talents that supersede all others, talents which we may or may not realize exist yet. Are you a karaoke lover? A musical genius? Perhaps, an artist? Creativity comes in all shapes and sizes, and it goes without saying that music is merely a single form of creativity that exists in this world. Would your favorite visual novel or anime be complete without an amazing soundtrack to back it up?

    Enter Show By Post!!, a musical event on Fuwanovel that will test your skills as an artist and what it takes to make it to the top of the music world. Over the next couple of weeks, you and a team of highly motivated individuals will become the musicians - you will create a band here on Fuwanovel, complete with your very own musical group of members, unique instruments, album cover, and original single. The power is yours; you get to design your band from the bottom up. In the end, your band will be pitted against other teams in a grand concert that will be sure to sweep the crowd off their feet and make the panties drop.

    I've enlisted the help of the girls from Show By Rock!! to assist me in this task, where the next couple of weeks will see the website host a themed avatar group, threads, and pictures based on the new hit anime. Whether you enjoy the show or not, feel free to participate in the festivities at any time. As the week progresses, new threads will appear around the site discussing the show. As they appear, you will have the chance to discuss what you think about the anime, vote for your favorite character, and vote on the bands which will be pitted against each other later on. Keep your eyes peeled for these threads later on during the event.

    So, how do I get started?

    This event will be hosted over the next month or so, where tasks will be assigned every so often based on when members complete them. You and your group will have the chance to complete each task at your own pace, where it will be your job to work together with your team to create the ultimate band. To start, a pre-task has been given to you below. As the event progresses, new tasks will be listed here in this post, so keep a sharp lookout for them.

    With that, good luck, and have fun. As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
     

     
    The Teams:
     
    Bands:
     
    1. Cyrillej1, Ryechu, rainismyfav, suikashoujo, Tiagofvarela
     
    2. CruelN1N1, HMN, hsmsful, Kiriririri, Monmon
     
    3. LinovaA, Nosebleed, Rose, The Major, Tyrael
     
    4. Flutterz, KosakiFag, Nimbus, Satsuki, Turnip Sensei
     
    Solo Artists:
     
    1. SoulJustin
     
    2. SakashimA
     
    The Tasks
     
    Pre-Task: The 1st thing you must do before we get into the bread and butter of creating your band on Fuwanovel is to establish who will be on your team during this event. Teams should be no larger than 5 people, and no smaller than 3. Keep in mind that the number of people on your team does not reflect how many members are allowed to be featured in your band later on. In other words, don't confuse your team with the actual group you will be creating.

    Task #1:




     
    Task #2:
     



     
    Task #3:

    The Major got a reaction from Tay in Fuwa? What happened?   
    I'd like to step in from the sideline and say a few things.

    It makes me really sad to see how this whole thing unfolded. Was it really necessary to call Fuwanovel a sewage full of turd?  Why wasn't this addressed in private message, instead of making a thread that was absolutely guaranteed to blow up in to a fight? Really, there was no reason why this couldn't have been handled in private between the offenders and staff. If the OPs were made aware of somebody being offended by their threads, I'm sure they would have apologized and this whole incident could have easily been avoided. The staff could have made a PSA reminding people about the rules of the forums, and how Fuwa prides itself in being a welcoming community for everyone, so it's important to think about others before posting something like that. The Fuwans would understand. Instead we have 7 pages of arguing over this supposed "sexism" that really didn't need to happen. Saying that you like butts or breasts isn't sexism, by the way. But I can absolutely understand it making people uncomfortable. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I mean, I'm not exactly comfortable talking about sexual stuff. But, looking back at this thread... I don't really see the point. A few members made mistakes. They got carried away. Threads got deleted and warnings were probably issued. It was done. Over. But the angry reaction to all of this really just did it for me. I know it sounds immature, but I was legitimately upset to the point where I just wanted to leave Fuwa (and I wasn't even involved in any way!). The most important thing to me is I really hope this incident didn't create more divides than there already are in the community, but I can't help but think it did.

    I guess that's it. There's a reason why I don't normally jump in to these heated debates over forum policy and stuff. I basically try to avoid confrontation and arguing at all costs. Not to mention that writing isn't really my strong suit, so I have trouble getting my feelings into words. That's it, though. I just wanted to say a few things.
