Remove comments when needed. Like, if someone posts a spoiler in the comments you are to remove said comment and say why you did. Same goes for anyone not behaving (making uncalled non-jokingly insults, for example, or anyone spamming.)

That said, if someone acts like a faggot and someone calls said person out on being a faggot, all is good~

So are we going to do one full Officer/Admin rotation for SotW and try to come to a decision on how to do it in the meantime?


I guess. We're at least rotating until we come up with an idea. Since we're already halfway, I guess it's fair to go the entire way.

We're doing it in the order of this thread, since it's the join order. If we decide to go another round, I might have to change the first 4 order to reflect that.

Okay so two things.

I've been planning to start doing Topic of the week. Another club I'm in is doing it and I think it's a good idea to incorporate some more discussions to the club. I've only participated once in the other club, but it's worked well. The club is considerably less active than us though so it might work better here. Since it's an anime guild, I'll keep the topics anime related, but I'd greatly appreciate input for topics on this one. Unless anyone opposes this, I'll start doing this.

Secondly, I think Spiffy but maybe Fel had an idea about doing anime of the 2 weeks/four weeks where we basically watch an 12 episode series in 2 weeks as a guild and discuss about it. I think that was the idea, and I'm for it. I guess we could decide the series the way we do SotW, otherwise I could pick a genre and a few amounts of titles for said genre and then hold a vote on it. This would not take a lot of work, and we'd get a various amount of genres and titles this way.

Thoughts? If I missed anything or misunderstood your guys ideas, Fel and Spiffy feel free to add anything.

My idea idea was to set a date, and in that day create a topic so we can discuss an anime. I tought of this because some people cant be in the simulwatch everytime, not everyone know of the somulwatch (new people are entering the club and become more active now) and this way is easy, since you can elaborate more your toughts and argue at your own pace since you are gonna have time.

At the beggining i tought simply "pick an anime and a date every two or so weeks". no need to be a show that no one watched, even if you saw it long ago would be okey to post your opinions on it but it would be nice to rewatch if its a really long time. The way we chose the show i was thinking of vote, but since we are doing it for simulwatch maybe we could choose a person and he/she picks the anime and we watch. This "forced" way could be better to get more different opinions on different genres, since i belive that not everyone like all kinds of stuff.

I agree with Spiffy on the Topic of the Week, some people might get really salty. But the topics you suggested such as "What got you into anime" would fit the topic of the week fine, dont they?

As far as topic's for the "Topic of the Week" thread, I say we try to avoid anything that could be a potential flame war or if so we will need to monitor them fairly well. For the most part this guild has been very polite and respectful and the little bit of "trolling" that does go on, people seem to handle well and roll with it; so I think we could get away with some "Best of X Genre" threads without having TOO much of a problem.

Some other potential good discussion topics could be "Anime that has influenced you the most" or "What got you into Anime". I feel like these topics are personal and entertaining enough that it should warrant some good responses and participation, and since It's not a "This anime is the best of all time and everyone else is wrong" but a "This anime influenced/affected ME and here is why" it shouldn't become too trollish or hostile.


Instead of "Best of X Genre", "Which show has the best X elements" would be a more appropriate discussion in my book. "What got you into anime" and "Anime that influenced you the most" I don't see either of this leading up to discussion, just responses since you can't really argue or discuss against any statements made.

I'm ignoring your topic of the week response, because my response to Spiffy already cover it.

My thinking is basically to go along the Genre List, skipping a few genres (the 18+ one's) but taking the rest in order and one person decides on a title, and that title it is. (No longer than 2 cour, doesn't matter if they're separate entries. No Sequels, and no OVA's or other bullshit.)

Well it depends on what kind of discussion you want to have. If you are wanting a debate then no, if you ware wanting a more personal friendly discussion then yes. If you want a debate/argument then how about "How has Anime changed over the years" or "Do you feel that Anime is anti-feminist".

I just REALLY don't think we should start a "Best of X" thread... They are boring, cliche, and don't contribute anything. All it does is devolve into people vouching their titles and hating on others. Yes you might get some good suggestions, but you would get good suggestions from "What Anime has influenced you the most" as well.


The reason why I'm not a big fan of either of those ideas for now, is that they don't leave much space up for discussion. It's certainly possible, and both are topics that I will consider for future editions - although for the first time I would want something that is more open for debate, just to make sure it doesn't become a failure and it's nothing but people posting responses without interacting with each other.

I'm a bit hesitant towards "How has Anime changed over the years" since I don't know how many people here have been following anime for that long, but sexism in anime is definitely a topic I would like to bring out at some point.

I will not do a "Best of X" thread now, and maybe never. I agree on your points about them, but they are good filler for a slow week where we can't come up with anything.

If I don't come up with anything better before I get home, I will probably spin a question based off sexism/feminism and anime, but otherwise I might do something else. If you're on Skype then, I'll hit you up with what I got for a final discussion but otherwise I will go ahead with what I believe is the best course of option.

Also, a quick list of topics that I could see using at some point in time.

"Do you think an anime that relies on causing an emotional response from the viewer be hold to a high degree critically?"

"What factors are the most and least important for you while rating anime?"

"What are the small things in anime that you love and hate to see the most?"

Any question touching the topics of Depth, Symbolism, Edginess, Comedy, Fanservice, Moe, Racism, Agendas, Nationalism, Innovation, Adaptions, Subtlety, etc, etc. I have to leave this instant, so I do not have the time to expand more on this at this moment.

That is how we will do it, if no one has any objections, in which case it is up for discussion.

Some thoughts/stuff:

I posted a new Topic of the Week. Was going to do sexism/feminism this week but I want to take the time to properly formulate an OP for it, so I decided to instead do it next week (hopefully). I could use input on what questions to ask in the OP etc.

We should retire the anime of the month idea since no one uses it, especially if no one responds before the time is over. We should announce it in said thread though in case people planned on using it, but just didn't want to watch Katanagatari.

We should change "【Discuss anime,manga,and games】Just a club for people to hang out and talk about what they like. Why don't you join?【We also do Skype chats every so often】" into 【Discuss anime, manga, and games】Just a club for people to hang out and talk about what they like. Why don't you join? We also have a Skype group / have an active Skype group.

We should go public if we plan on accepting everyone anyways. Being private = more work.

We should add some information in the "Introductions" thread related to the guild that could be useful to new members.

We should update the profile picture since it's no longer halloween. 4 of our admins (me, BlueHood, thanna and Spiffytease) is behind the idea of changing it into some variant of Smug Madoka.

We should also update our layout on the main page. I'd love a button that links to the plug.dj room on the new one. Maybe something more, like topic of the week. We should also change the color when doing this.
Andrew please let me know if you are interested in doing this. You are as far as I know the most talented of the officers with this stuff.

We should look over our anime/manga/character relations. I'd love if we could work together to create some kind of 'official recommendations' list (from the officers) otherwise we could just redo it from the scratch with a few shows each since we now have a lot of more officers.

We should resize our banners and our crest to smaller sizes. As of now, they feel awkward in size to use, and are not fitting for signatures or the like (but still leave both sizes available.

We could also do member cards. I've seen it requested like once, but it might be good. I could maybe do this if needed.

We should change "C-C-B-H-B" into Crest/Banners. Right now it looks weird and we only got a crest and banner otherwise. We should also only have it in one spoiler tag, not two.

I did minor changes to the display page, such as changing formatting or grammar to look a bit smoother. I also updated the simulwatch notice.

I probably forgot something. But anyways, thoughts?

Grats on your promotion Andrew. I was going to suggest it here too but looks like I got beat to it lol.

Agreed on giving up Anime of the Month. You can't incite people to watch a show just by creating a thread.

So removing the brackets? I don't see why not.

No opinion on going public or not. I'll let you guys decide.

Don't know if there's a lot of people in the plug.dj room, but if so, then it's a good idea to put the link (and even then, it's good to attract new people.)

About the relations, I support the idea, it'd probably be easier to discuss it on skype though.

For the rest, well tbh I don't care that much. Sure it'd be nice, but I guess it depends on how many people ask for it.

Then if no one posts I'll post it in a few days before it ends that it wont be another one and then just remove the thread when it's over, if no one has any complaints about this.

So removing the brackets? I don't see why not.


You already did it, so I strikethrough it since it's finalized.

Don't know if there's a lot of people in the plug.dj room, but if so, then it's a good idea to put the link (and even then, it's good to attract new people.)


Me, Rezo, Yuki and Bob are the one's who use it mostly, but because of lack of time it isn't used too frequently.

About the relations, I support the idea, it'd probably be easier to discuss it on skype though.


I think it's easier to talk about it here since it doesn't require that people is active at the same time, but it will undoubtably take longer (but everyone can join in on the discussions without problem).

For the rest, well tbh I don't care that much. Sure it'd be nice, but I guess it depends on how many people ask for it.

I already thought about changing some things in the layout and also the picture with the buttons, for it I would need some suggestions, cause I lack imagination. Layout would be easy to rethink I guess.

Resizing is not a big of a deal. I tried making member cards but I had other stuff to do so I couldn't, If you can you can do it, if not I'll made them.
