Could it ever get clearer than this?

Tay is asking project managers to use the Hanachirasu release to mind control pacific citizens into becoming katana-wielding slaves to the regime, and eventually take over the world.

 

Seriously, now. The place where this new release went bugs me to no end. It just seems like it's bound with the project recruitment. Couldn't it at least have a "Hot in the VN world" or whatever text on top of it so that I'm not bugged?  Even the "New release" would just look so much better on top!!!  :kosame:  :kosame:  :kosame:  :kosame:  :kosame:

I think I finally know what blog I should make.

"Bugging Marie: A Guide"

I do agree. I'm not a fan of the spot its in. Looks really messy, and I'm not usually one to complain about appearances in here.

'Kay so I wasn't the only one whose eyes kinda bled when I saw where it was. xD

 

Top or bottom would look best. Top would make more sense so more people can see it though~ ^_^

Problem: If it as at the top,  people who live in the Other Discussion/Colosseum of Chatter would never see it though.

 

Solution: We relocate the Fuwanovel Community subforum to the top (where I've always thought it should be anyway, I mean it contains the news and announcements, along with the rules ffs) and this will push the three subforums that are  most commonly viewed together right where the current ad is located.

 

It's a genius plan if I do say so myself. It would be right next to the new Visual novel discussion subforum, with development board right next to it, while still visible from the other discussion section.

 

I do agree that it is in the completely wrong area.  I first saw it and was like "huh? why is that under recruitment? wasn't jast doing that?"

Why add this feature on the forum in the first place ?

The site has a front page, right ?

 

Plus the right side already has lots of info. You should be careful not to sink the info by putting to much.

Posted

Because the current front page is obsolete and we are waiting on the new front page to be pushed out. Would be silly to cram it in there right now. 

 

I know.

Then will it stay once the frontpage has been redone ?

I'm not really too bothered by the positioning, I think it's fine where it is for the most part, I just want it to have a proper header so it doesn't look like it's under project recruitment or just floating around.

Interesting..

What do other people think of this

I think the affiliate link thingy can  go under the news/blogs/chat/reviews quicklink thingymabob at the top of sidebar

I don't think people that "live in other discussion" are so ignorant they wouldn't look at the sidebar once in their life. If you care about a forum, you'll visit its main page at least once. But even assuming that they don't, Visual novel discussion and project development has always been at the top since our forum is about visual novels and I believe that's the way it should be kept.

 

I get the whole "rules being at the top" thing, but I don't think that warrants the whole board being moved to the top.

 

And above all else I don't think re-organizing the boards has much to do with this affiliate link and would be a pointless move to make.

 

You must be sleepy.

Based brain spasm.

I'm very sad that this conversation has moved straight past the mind control and the katanas and the slaves and the world domination to boring ole sidebar placement. : P

 

Eh, the ad was just an experiment to check click-through rates on the J-list affiliate program. There will be more ad experiments coming in the next few days. The placement was given exactly 8.67 seconds of thought, so the fact that it bothers so many of you is just a lucky coincidence. 

 

I'll be putting up a post in the Community board about the upcoming ad experiments. Y'know. Just to make sure we all panic and make as big a deal as possible out of it.  :makina:

 

(And yes, thank you for noticing! That was, in fact, the first time I have ever used one of the new emoticons.)

More like the first time you've ever used a non-text emoticon, period. : P

 

Also that thing is an ad? I thought it was just another translation that was completed or something. o_O
