Title: A QUESTIONAIRE
Post by: black death on October 23, 2008, 12:48:12 AM
WITH ONLY ONE QUESTION.

what do you think we should do with this forum.

here, il go into detail. what is it that you think we should base the 4M on. before the 4M was about the kinjokids, now it is nothing. before it dies and is only a distant memory i want some more out of it. I will be taking ideas and i would like some brain storming. also the following people i would like on skype.

chickanbone
kinjo
FW
RP mods, maybe. i might not want to wait 5 years.

i would prefer if these people were all on at once but that is of course impossible to organize.

TEHN LATS POTS ABUT ITS.

I Feel that we can go far with the "Community" angle, a 'welcome all' approach, but even that needs directions to draw people in.

So far kinjo has lured us all via his cartoons. I vote to continue the tradition and will keep supporting his cartoons and making them popular by consistently voting and reviewing.

He also is making MyAnimeSpace.org diverse and popular. Anime Section has always been #2 section on the 4M, so that will help bring anime fans.

All in all, I think we need to keep the 4M about Kinjo and how much 'The Man' he is with every project he does. We also need to contribute and do more fan art/content so he can put it up on his sites and have ppl see he has a fan base.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Flashcartoons.org  and KinjoKids themes for the 4M.

KinjoKat is our mascot I think, so maybe we can put him up on more pages on 4M.

We need to get back some key features like Header and footers to help the visual feel of the 4M.

As an Admin, I'll be doing the behind the scenes work adding 4M to directories and other seedy dealings to get the word out, colab with people/sites, etc.

....


Thats all i can think of off the top of my head right now.

a few things about your post. i think that the whole about kinjo and his cartoons is for one, not a direction and it is also a bad direction for getting people. i am not saying we should not help him and get alot of his cartoons in the 4M but i think we need a REAL direction. comunity does not cut it. we need to look at OTHER forums, and see what they do, and what is the BEST forum kind. like what kind of forum gets the MOST members in it.

also i know you are trying but you may need help with getting the 4M it's bling. the thing that makes it look atractive and different! and not blah and grey.

the rest i like though, we need to fix the 4M.

This is something ive been trying to put my finger on for months now, I know what you mean and its a difficult task since we've all been goofing off randomly for so long. :P

Lol, Me and kinjo are putting tons of effort into making Webpages that Grab people and traffic from all areas our latest Ventures are the Blogs, and within a week we should be in the process of having 2-5 Anime series Blog's so far the ranma blog has been a Overall Sucess for traffic generated for 1 page, once we multiply our Daily traffic by having myanimespace.org 2-5 Blogs, The 4m, and anything else kinjo or animation related things will be awesome.. i  was talkin to kinjo about somthing earlier today and it was odd because theres no general visual showing that our latest updates have felt like we have grabbed people or that it has translated to more people on the 4m's but amazingly enough Hundreds of people have Read that Ranma Blog Every Day, that doesent mean they post that doesent mean they show up here.. and whatever but as long as we generate Web traffic things will be successful and What me and Kinjo do will only grow and do more things because it will all be more worth our time! so anyways i was askin kinjo about puting counters to show how many people have been here today and total so that we can really feel Like things are hott and what we have done has truly meant somthing so that even if 4m posts are not up or whatever we can feel great about whatever we do.

Now also you do pose 1 good point, i have to admit its Great we have a 4m but your right black on 1 level this 4m is or should be about Kinjo Kids or Whatever Animation Kinjo endevors his time to produce, but it has been proven that on some level the Enjoyment Out of Kinjo's animations does not completly drive people to join the 4m or use the 4m to talk about kinjo's creations, and the 4m has thrived alot longer and better by peoples desire to talk about any thing they are intrested, weather from general life issues or fun from anime and tv shows or whatever the majoritys latest popular hobbies prove to be, that said does that mean the 4m should have its own website or be renamed a new title to draw a more expansive audiance that people intrested in any 4m would be drawn to our 4m?

Post by: kinjo on October 23, 2008, 10:34:10 AM
i have tons of plans, and most of them involve linking to the 4m, right now i think the 4m needs a new theme (this one is nice, but we have been using it for awhile now), headers/footers, and youtubes. I mentioned before we made this the forum people goto when they feel like posting anything. the 4m of forums

we probably should rework the sections a bit, I want a theme for anime that fits to myanimespace, a zombie section that fits for flashzombies, and kinjokids theme like fw says.
Then ill link to those specific sections from those sites,

Now, some of my other site plans:

MAS: my plans for myanimespace.org will make it my #1 visited site, the more content the more people find it (to many ideas to list)

FC: im hoping once i have the money to get some programmers and turn flashcartoons.org into a portal like youtube/ng, people can upload .swfs and/or post there youtube animations and have people comment and vote etc

FZ: more reviews!!!!!!! thats what i want most, also been tinkering with the idea for source code myspace/blog image comments section (like www.animecomments.net, this i want to do for both FZ and MAS)

KK: new style of comic and a few games (my dream is to have kinjokids on a xbox live arcade game and/or a anime in japan) if i had the $$ :)

Post by: tkoold on October 23, 2008, 02:19:43 PM
kinjo you always have money lol j/k
Title: Re: A QUESTIONAIRE
Post by: black death on October 23, 2008, 04:28:10 PM
i would quote but your post is too big.

so kinjo i like your ideas and the whole turn FC into a portal website is a FANTASTIC idea! KK i love that too, you must give it NEW LIFE and when you do, new people will come. MAS is always good, bring more people, and direct them to the rest of your websites including the 4M.

what i beleave is the 4M should be about all your projects. have a tab at the top of all your websites directing to the 4M so people can go to the 4M and talk about that site. and when they go to the 4M they find all the other sites too! and of course put some normal 4M things in the 4M so they stay with the 4M.

I think the 4M should be a huge link to everything else kinjo has to offer, but it should also be a hang-out place.

Post by: Flashwerewolf on October 23, 2008, 07:35:02 PM

Title: Re: A QUESTIONAIRE
Post by: kinjo on October 23, 2008, 08:18:26 PM
ya... well we should pick one and use it

vote etc.. unless its this one
Title: Re: A QUESTIONAIRE
Post by: Flashwerewolf on October 23, 2008, 09:54:32 PM
We can definitely use a new theme, I had only coded a few things like Bookmarks and Gallery.

I'll look over the different themes available and group them in order of style(Minimalistic, colorful, sleak, etc) and we'll have a poll on which style. Then I'll find a handful that look nice and make a 2nd poll with some visuals.

Theres a lot of variables in the themes available and with limitless customization even a bad looking theme can look cool with some custom graphics.

Sorry, I don't have Skype and I don't intend on getting it since I already have lot's of contact programs.

Anyways, as part of the roleplaying section, I've seen lots of different roleplaying forums and it seems that more members come to places with different levels of roleplaying.

so, my thought was that we can have one or two more sections for different levels of roleplaying depends on how you roleplay and how skillful you are. I think this gives reason for people to want to improve as well as a place to welcome those who do want to make those one line posts FW and Whalesdude like so much. =P

If this happens, I would think that whalesdude would be a good choice to look after that half of it since he seemed to have much experienced and enjoyment in that type of roleplaying style.
