Before I start, let me just say that this is one of the best video game fourm sites that I've seen. Well anyways, at another fourm site like this one for the Phantasy Star series, has about half the members the seikens does yet it's a lot more active.
I've found out that its because of their features which the seikens does not have such as winamp wall papers, roms, emulators, fan comics and some other things. I think that by getting some of these things, the seikens may gain the sweet taste of fourm life again. There's a lot of dead (gone) members and only very few new ones that actually post anything here.
I suggest that we get some of these things. For starters, the desktop and winamp wallpapers. These are pretty easy to make and I already have some SD3 snes ripped wallpapers made by me. I think I may have sent some to Sheexy by email but I may have not. Anyways, I still need to get some more. The Glass Desert ones were the best, I'll show you guys sometime.
As for roms and emulators, there pretty easy to find on the web so its not a big deal. Plus the seikens wants to be "100% legal" so that's a definite no... probably. I think Sheexy was also the one that said in the April Fool's day topic that "we could have them but we want to be prefectly legal" or something like that so we'll hold that thought for the moment.
Fan made fanfics, comics and drawings: I plan on making some funny chibi SD3 ones where Duran, Angela and Hawkeye run around in their crazy adventures to take down Koren and the Dragon Emperor that always end up going wrong XD I'll have to hold on to that to since I still need to update my manga topic with an enemy sketch. That and work and school aren't leaving me alone so I have very little free time. I usally post in between breaks or at night here.
So it would be very nice to see some more fan art and writings here. It might help revive the seikens, at least a bit. These new things might attract new members as well as the old ones which are gone. These are just some thoughts. Free free to drop any ideas or imput. Remember, your honest opinions matter here unlike how they don't in school, work, politics and just about everywhere else. No really, that's a little sad though don't you think? Well, let's not go to far off topic with my sleepless ramblings.
GO SEIKENS!!! Show them what you've got! People like sites that have it, so this should make the seikens much more popular then it already is. Yeah, so that's about it I guess.
