Draco Straybyrn Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Refer to my last post on the petition thread' date=' XD. ^^[/quote'] So what you're saying is you want a new Category? Ehhhhh. We need the Multimediaish forum-thing in GD anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoshIcy Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 new category might be overkill... but its own section, that would be nice... not just a sub-forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Well we are basically saying a Multimedia CATEGORY, although the Contests sounds fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I really don't see how it'd be overkill, it is better than cramping it all into GD or General which makes it overkill for me and Slime Lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That feels like GD. Anything else pertaining to Video Games or whatever would go in said category. Oh, and to be on-topic, ROM related stuff isn't illegal. It's not malicious hacking either.

High Definition Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 If offered i would be a Defenate Mod, but no ones going to be Mod of you keep asking for a moderatorship. But yes i do suport and will mod if possable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egnio Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 This Mod thingy will soon become a political campaign. So anyways. A few things I want to point out.- Too many sub-subforums would most likely cause more disorganization than organization. I don't know if it's only because of my short-term memory, but I still have problems remembering where I can find some of the posts (and while we're at it, why not change the section of "Pop Culture cards" and "Realistic cards"? I've seen threads that fit one of them in the other subforum and vice versa.- Videogames are also media. So it could fit the Multimedia category. Believe it or not, they also communicate messages to people (you playing them is the feedback)- ROMs are not illegal if you own the game. Linking to Rom sites or downloads IS illegal. But if the owner of this site doesn't give a damn of having a slight, almost nonexistent chance of getting himself jailed, I think no one should give a damn. But in the case it is illegal here, this site can get you all the roms you'll ever want, with a little of work . Rom hacking is NOT illegal, as long as you don't plan to make profit out of it (doubt anyone will). I'd like to know how to hack roms myself ):- Just checked the first post. I didn't know that moderators could take control of whole threads :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Well as you may have seen earlier, Altemon posted a somewhat idea of what it could look like category wise. Of course a few more other things could be added within it too. If this was to go ahead' date=' here is an idea of forums, subforums and sub-subforums. MULTIMEDIAVideo Games----Sony----Microsoft----Nintendo--------Rom Hacking----OtherMusic----Rock/Pop----R&B/Rap----Old Music----OtherMovies/TV----Anime----Movies----Fan Creations What do you think? YCM has much less areas and sections than other forums, so adding this would definitely improve YCM.[/quote'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Definition Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 No, if i did i would quit the campaign. So without me it would be easyer for them. IDK why i just said that but it sounded nice. But anyway, this dose sound nice and i think Video Games would go in the Multimedia center becuase it is what Egnio they do have online chating bilt in to them sometimes. P.S. I like Altemon's Idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YCM has much less areas and sections than other forums, so adding this would definitely improve YCM. Well, I DID see that earlier, and I DID post another possibility, as I said that one was a bit too complex. Anime should be great. Enough people posting about whatever anime they know on the section called Anime' date=' while it's supposedly for only Yu Gi Oh stuff. But about the videogames and music, I'm not sure if they should be separated in so many sections. I mean, I'd separate it on: Multimedia--- Videogames------ Other gaming stuff (ROM hacking, fanfics, etc)--- Music--- Anime/Manga (Other than Yu Gi Oh)------ Fanfics (I hate them, but meh)--- Movies/TV[/quote'] And Draco: If people might not know what ROM Hacking is about, why would it get spammed so quick? I think the place that would get spammed is the Questions and Answers thingy. Besides, all a mod has to do is stick to the rules and use common sense.

SushiTheLegend Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 People would show rom hacks they are making, they'd be tutorials for it and etc...most rom hacking is on Pokemon games anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that. @Sanji: Yes, yes I know, I'm semistudying to be be a game designer. I think that section would be better named "Custom Games", because people DO make their own games based off other games (Tilesets/Stories) from scratch. ROM hacks are just a different way to do it.

altemon Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Altemon knows his stuff' date=' simple as that.[/quote']:D I've done layouts for many people's forums in my time, that's all. Well, if this was to go ahead, I would spend ALL of my time in one place. Rom hacking. I already spend most of my time at Pokecommunity at the Rom Hacking forum, and over half of the people online at Pokecommunity at one time are usually all in that area. That area alone would attract HUNDREDS of members to this site. And I'm not talking about the dribble that's hit the forum lately. This will attract hundreds of DECENT, HARDWORKING, DEDICATED members. (God, I'm starting to sound like Draco! O.O ) People spend MONTHS on rom hacks, and are always eager to show off their work. Now, we have roughly the same amount of members as PokeCommunity, so people from there will be attracted. Mon94key has already attempted to bring Rom Hacking to the forum, and he is a member of PokeCommunity, too. It would work a lot better if we create a sub-forum for it. Sure, Sanji, this may go against your little "Pokemon is for Pokemon forums" thing, but I'd like to see someone find the offsets to put their own cards into a YGO GBA game, too. Also, the hacks can be shown off and be on the forum legally, by being in the .ips format, which only contains code for the CHANGES that havebeen made, ready to patch to a clean Rom of its base. Sanji, you may use the preceding paragraph and the ideas from it to help persuade YCMaker. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
