Yep, I'm already going to start criticizing the website, not that that's a bad thing. After all, the best thing a developer can get is criticism. So yeah, I posted some stuff in the shoutbox before I came here, so I'll just copy and paste it (NOTE: It gets nerdy right here). My plan would be to get us up and running on phpBB, get some nice styles and mods, fix up the navigation menu on the home page, and get shoutbox hosted on the server. I don't think it's too much to ask, and I'm even offering to do this, so yeah.

I also noticed that you guys seem to be running the site off of something other than Apache, Windows IIS perhaps? Anyway, do you have any reason for this. As far as I know, Linux running Apache is the ideal web server.

And we should totally get a Chatango room. Though no doubt it'll be empty 99% of the time.

IRC would be cool, but would probably suffer from the same problem.

Thanks for suggestions, honestly, about the layout and coding, I'm actually kinda lazy when it comes down to it. I could do better, but I sadly do not have the time. If and when I get the chance, I'll be more than happy to fix it up and change things around

Well, I am offering to help. With FTP access, I could easily fix it, but I'd understand if you wanted to talk to me about it in person first.

I know you are offering to help. As of right now, I think we are ok. If ever in the future we need help, I'll be sure to come to you

DON'T DO IT! HE'LL REPLACE THE FONTS WITH SHIFT-JIS SO WE'LL ALL HAVE TO GET THE EASTERN ASIAN CHARACTERS ON OUR COMPUTERS! AND he'll create a backdoor so hackers can get in and add pictures of Bob Marley everywhere!

I think that you (Sam) should make sub-forums in one of the anime forums, probably at least two - One for Shounen/Seinen anime/manga and one for Shoujo/Josei anime/manga, seeing as there is a VERY large difference between the two, and I think most guys don't read shoujo/josei manga, so it would be easier for them to filter those kinds of things (and also for any girls who don't like shounen/seinen manga).

Explain the terms Shounen and Seinen please. I've been wondering what they mean.

To sum it up, Shounen and Seinen are the counterparts of Shoujo and Josei. In other words, Shounen animes (e.g. Bleach, Naruto) are targeted at the adolescent boys age group (about from elementary school through high school). Seinen (e.g. Elfen Lied, Gantz, Hellsing) is targeted at the older male audience, usually from 18-30 years old (though some people up to 40 read these). Shoujo (e.g. Shugo Chara!, Fruits Basket) and Josei (e.g. Honey and Clover) are, as I have stated before, pretty much the same as Shounen and Seinen, respectively, but targeted at a female audience.

Bleh. Sam, I am going to make a mock-up of a design for the site I woudl like better and put it on my website, then show you, okay? I've already started with some sketches fo the pages. By the way, if you don't know who I am, then I am going to show you some of my sketches at the next meeting, so I'm that guy who will be going up to you and showing you some pictures.
Edited because I had an extra space...
