We tend to have similar taste, so I have a feeling you'd enjoy it.
This is an amazing point, and it's prompted me to bump Utena up to the next thing I watch. Although it could be awhile before I get back around to an animu; I'm sort of engrossed in
Breath of the Wild (and I've had to work back-to-back 60 hour weeks, but like, I don't even care about work?).
I guess the forum upgrade didn't bring back much activity
I never want to post during lulls because then my posts will be the only ones to read, and people will be, like, super-critical of them. And I can't cope with that.
ps who is anume in avitar/
I remember when this place was booming with active users. I even remember when GCT used to be active. Heck, I remember a few years ago when GCT imploded with sh*t posts and the whole thread got axed. That was a crazy time.
I remember back when people used to wax nostalgic about the 2004-06 era. Though I thought 07-08 was pretty good, too. Speaking of, I also saw that BattleFranky is still one of the top posters here despite not being around for ~10 years. Crazy.
I miss how this place was back when I first joined in early-mid 2011. Maybe we should downgrade back to vbulletin 3 xD
Anyways I miss the default style that was used back then and I would love to see it get remade for nostalgic reasons.
I miss ho- OH MY GOD IS THAT MANA?!
Yeah this thread used to go through hundreds of post a day, not sure what happened haha
To be fair, I feel like if it racked up 100+ posts in 24 hour period, that was a bad thing. Remember that thing with Zeno and jenny and all that? What was it again...?
It's not a complete restoration, no, but there is a little bit more buzz. The chat definitely seems to be more active if any of you are interested in that. I always tried checking it out prior to the upgrade and it was always dead as a doornail. Either the upgrade did something for its activity or I'm just suddenly signing on at the right times.
The conversations in chat are typically more engaging than the ones on the forum anyway, from what I can see. I also feel less pressure to be all prim and proper in my manner of writing. Socialization is...what's the word? I don't know..Purer? when you're conversing real time and off the cuff.
I like the post format, though. It's like, "I'm very busy so leave a message and I'll get back to you later." But then since you're on the internet, you get distracted by hamster breeding videos and forget that this place even exists.
I know this is pretty late but has anyone been keeping up with the Channel Awesome disaster fiasco?
Horrible stuff all around. Especially with what came out recently.
Yeah it's terrib- HOLY **** IS THAT KERMIT'S ANGRY FACE?
P.S. - Speaking of the upgrade, I think my favorite feature is this new rolleyes emoji, which I'm really digging:
