Short version: You're a fucking idiot. If you're going to be lazy and inept and start yet another worthless forum with no purpose other than to pet your own ego, then try at least stringing some actual words together, you worthless fuck.
ahh, short and striate to the point. much better ^.^
anyway i dont see where i made up any words.

Nobody here cares about how many posts anybody makes. I think you've never been in a real Internet forum, so this place confuses you.

Also, hosting is cheap and easy these days; as is setting up a forum. The only people you're going to attract this way, especially with some generic Anime-site theme, is a bunch of worthless fucks who aren't able to stroke their egos by making their own forum with no members, and I don't want to those types of people them making "good long posts" on this board at all, as I'm sure many others wouldn't either. Go do this on some teenage gaming site where "discussion" equals stating the obvious about random shit, because you're just making a fool of yourself here.

Besides, this way you're just asking to get a bunch of emotionally unstable, wishy-washy backstabbing adolescent kids who will eventually ruin your forum (and probably constantly lie to you about who they are). If you want to build a community, start with the site. Open it up to user contributed content, provide a means for user comments, and let the forum run mostly unmoderated a while, and you'll eventually find and meet people whom you can grow to trust and rely on when your site reaches a point where you need people for moderating the forums or editing the site's content.

The only reason this site has a forum to begin with is that Zeality was stirring up so much discussion about the Chrono games on the general board of a music remixing site that a lot of the regulars there were tired of seeing it, even though many found it interested. A community had formed like a cancerous tumor out of another forum, and there was a need to give that community, however small it may have been, a place to freely hold discussion, as well as organize and present the things they discussed.

And then the only reason this site ended up being anything much more than that was Zeality's own need to expand the scope of the site and make it a collection of any and all resources involving the Chrono series. Naturally, this grew out of a need for more concrete evidence on which to base the analysis, all of which would be easily accessible and referenced, but later it grew into its own end.

Nowhere in the game plan was "build a forum" and "attract a lot of users" then "bask in eternal glory of a bunch of stupid 12 year olds posting about their difficult adolescent lives and random gaming shit while feeling important by acting as an authority figure enforcing arbitrarily strict rules based on a tradition of other forums run by teenagers needing to feel important," which is why these forums are different from what you expect. You'll notice we've never been "hacked" or had to deal with the dreaded "admin gone crazy" type of drama. There's about as much drama here as there is at Photo.net or Guiltyparties.com. There's a reason for that, and if you stop and think a little, you'll be able to avoid that kind of mess as well.

Finally,we don't have a lot of "mods" here, because the only moderation here is based on two rules:

1. Are we legally obligated to take it down and/or notify the authorities?
2. Is it interesting and/or meaningful?

The attitude here is that if you get offended in an argument, that's your problem. Don't expect some "mod" to see something and fix it for you. Oh, and don't post Naruto spoilers.

you post too long, and you talk way to much shit even if it is incased in mild helpfulness. anyway, i am not trying to become a athority figure like you implied. i just like my forum and sites design, and want to have it become active so other people can see it.

my site forums are just starting out, and aside from the offer in my sig i have a new one: put this in your sig and make atleast 5 good long posts on this board a day (without spamming) this is because of the following: most people will click the sig links of any members they like. so i you'll have this as your sig:

Code: [Select]
[color=red]my friend is turning his site into an anime site, and he needs a community. if anyone has time can they stop by and make some topics and posts? [/color]http://www.twilightskies.net/bbs/index.php
now i know a lot of you are going to say "put this in your sig" and i tried, and it said my sig was too long, so thats why i made this.

anyway if people do this it'll help out CC (5 great posts a day) and it'll help me out too, and the poster as well who will be a mod.

i think CC is a great site and community, and thats why i want to offer this to its many great members.

okay dude you're really pissing me off. just because you don't believe something that doesn't mean you should disrespect it.

Freedom of speech and freedom of religion mean freedom from religion. While the Compendium is a private forum subject to United States laws, and though the admins and I have total control over speech, topics here often go off-topic in meaningful ways. This is not pedophilia or flaming, so there is no reason to curtail this expression if there's a tangible, civil discussion going on. Contrarily, off-topic posting with one word and images aren't usually allowed.

In summary, we're not going to prevent someone's sensibilities from being offended as a matter of metaphysical debate unless it descends to outright flaming and trolling. This forum has a sizable number of people with humanistic or scientific leanings. Kyronea or Kanadyets didn't launch the debate, and neither should it be met with such intolerance.

now me bring a 19 year old in collage and not some 7th grade kid who is so insecure about his beliefes


w00t! no ban. thanks ZeaLitY ^.^

the mods here really ARE nice ^.^

anyway, because i am sure that someone is going to say "if you dont like what i'm saying leave this site"
to you i have something to say.

if i went into random threads and than posted up a goatse* pic would you leave the thread, forums, or internet? no, you'd fight to have the pics removed. however, even goatse has its place on the internet, and as such trying to remove a pic of goatse on a goatse website is just stupid. however this site isnt a goastse site, so you wouldnt come here looking for goastse, and if you seen some here it would most likely offend you.

one could argue that that goatse is aginst the rules, and christan bashing is not, but the fact remains: this is a Chrono Trigger website, not a Christian bashing website, so my request to not bring it up in random threads holds a good bit of ground and as such "if you dont like what i'm saying leave this site" doesn't serve as a defense.

*Goatse is a really really nasty porn pic. DO NOT LOOK FOR IT! it will scar you.


Edit: and actually i am 19 and in collage. look www.myspace.com/soracross
