Lame.
So the folks who run this website have decided to "retire" the reviews and articles sections.
I have one word: LAME.
I think it's a stupid decision. I know someone's going to say "HOMG. THEY LIK RUN THA SITE, BE NIXX0RS YOU MEANIEZ. ADAM P0WNZ YOU!" ...FEH. I don't care... This place could be run by Moses for all I cared, I'm still going to say it.
IT'S TEXT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. It's not like it's a drain on the resources of the site. If they didn't have blogs or my friend, Kip, stopped blogging in her...I'd leave. There's really nothing else worth looking at... for me anyway.
Yeah there's fan art... but, I don't look at it all that often. I don't use any other part of the site really.
I enjoyed the articles and reviews...If I knew if they accepted reviews for a series that had been reviewed...I have PLENTY to submit for them. Articles? WELL CRAP. I'm almost finished reworking my Utena Movie relationship map...and I was starting to work on a series I was planning to do on the Black Rose Saga.
Double lame.
What's going in it's place? I don't know of any official word... Fan Manga? Well that's a lame idea.
Why?
a.) 90% of Fan manga aren't worth my time. They're all tired gags or over used jokes regarding characters. What? Another Orichmaru is gay joke? Inuyasha said something rude? ANOTHER Link gives "navi whats coming to her?"! WOW...Such FUNNY and ORIGINAL ideas. *snores* Excuse me while I contain my excitement.
b.) People already post their fan mangas in fan art...which is where it belongs. Why shut down beloved sections for a new and unesscary catergory?
What about fan fiction?
a.) See above a.)
b.) Mary Sue.
c.) FF.net
Again. I say this is a lame decision on the Otaku's Adminstrators... Maybe reviews should go... I don't know how much interest that held...But like I said. I could easily revive that section by myself, I just wish I knew if they allowed multiple reviews for a single show... There's plenty of series whose reviews I disagree with...
Articles are well beloved amongst the users. Why else would they get so many large submission thingehs? Personally, "retiring" the articles section is the single stupidest thing to be done to this site, hands down. WHY? "Hey! Let's take down the section of our site that has a marginal IQ." "AWESOME IDEA DUDE. Let's replace it with Anime Babes in Bikinis section instead!" 'Righteous'.
Way to go admins! Yeah. Let's refoucs our site away from deatiled discussions and the exchange of ideas. WHO WANTS THAT? Let's give more room for scribblings by our users. [85% of which who should not be allowed to weild a penicl near a sheet of paper....Yes I am included in that group.]
Yes. I'm snarky. It could be the fact it's 6am and I have YET to go to bed. Feel the typo and grammatical error love, baby.
