It seems that I will not be going anywhere for awhile, as too much work went into creating this forum to just let it go and shut it down. The teams have been removed in an effort to offset some of the time required for my presence here with the time required for my presence elsewhere. Once the involvement picks up, so too will the extra-curricular activities. In the meantime, we all have the same name color so no one stands out (so long as I can get rid of those admin and moderator titles in the legend).

The updates on anime downloads will come at the earliest convenience, and I will try to get the updates to you as they occur, but cannot promise anything more than one to two updates a week. As for manga updates, I currently do not have the time to bring you all the latest news on those.

The summer art contest will continue, although it is a sure sign, just as the spring art contest was, that no one is really interested.

I will transfer all of the streams that I posted on the vacation board over here during the coming week, and while I would appreciate it if others would do the same, this is not something I expect, as it is my fault that we moved in the first place. As for those of you that said you would upload, yet have not do so yet, please post your streams on this board. The respective forums for your uploads are already set up and available for you to post in. If you do not plan to upload anything, then please let me know so that your forum can be removed as not to mislead any guests or new members. Thank you.

For those of you that have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about, then you need not worry, because the thread I started in regard to my leaving the forum has been removed. Again, please be aware that I cannot be here 24/7, and as I mentioned in my good-bye thread, this is a community built by many, and it would be a shame if it went to hell all because the admin doesn't live here. It takes more than a single person to build a community, and the community you have helped build deserves to have active members outside of the very few.

Lol, so we are going to be staying here... Thats cool! But what ware we going to use the Rp board as? For Rping again?

No, I'm sorry, BF, but I simply do not have the time to run two separate boards. It's rather difficult for me to run this board alone as it is. Unfortunately, it appears that when I am not here, attendance wanes, so I need to bolster what we have now in order to take some time to my personal life while trusting that the current members will keep attending without thinking that they've been abandoned.

Eventually, we'll get back to the guilds, tho. As for the other board, it's going to be done away with. The guilds offer us more of what we're actually looking for in rp'ing. Until that time comes, we'll just finish up what's already on our plates first.

The board looks kinda dull without all the different name colors on it.

That's freakin' awesome, Kyouri! I'm so glad, I heard from Shar. xD We understand, after all.. we'll still be able to hang around here! Even if you're not here as much as you used to, that's okay, at least we'll still be able to read each others' post and whatnot. And that's better than absolutely nothing at all.

I'm glad you stayed, and yeah, the board does look kinda dull without the colors and such. ;D

Thank you, Blackmamba. ^^ I read what you wrote on the other thread, and yes, I wouldn't want to miss our first year anniversary of meeting, either. And yes.. we're nerds. :p

As for the name colors, I'll come up with something but it won't be 'team' oriented.

This is great and now we can slowly (and I mean slowly) get back up to where we were and if anyone goes crazy because they cant do any RP stuff you can either give them a good slap lol or bring the dice back and the board does look dull without all the colors mabye you could just stick a thing on the profiles that you can pick a color

LMFAO! so were moving bak WTF! im always last 2 find out about these things T.T & ive been posting on the other forum like jerk jus wondering where the hell every1 went lmfao!

LOL.. Sorry about that zB. It was pointed out in the 'Downloaders/Uploaders' thread over there, and talked about on the shoutbox a wee bit, although no formal announcement was made. My apologies. But if it makes you feel any better, I'll scoot over there and post behind you.. at least you wouldn't have just been chatting with yourself. :p Oh.. and you are so NOT a jerk!

@ CSD... Yes, very slowly. Once we've established a regular routine with regular members doing specific things, then it will ease the pace and we can get more things done, as well as implementing more fun.

We could add the dice roll thing back just for fun, and I'll think about it.

And temporarily some names are colored to match up with the basic 'admin', 'moderator', and 'uploader' groups. I'm really fond of those staple titles, but for now, I'll cope just so the board won't look so boring.

i am so sorry i've been absent for a few days. I've been getting things ready for this coming semester (grants, student loans, apartment leases...etc)...I don't know what happened while i was gone, but I am relieved to know we will still have this A~D board.
We can all understand how personal life can drag us away now and then. don't worry, kyo, you still have all our support, i'm sure. You have mine and i will move my uploads to this board pronto. =)

although i will say i am kinda disappointed about the removal of the teams. Y_Y I was really getting excited and had started developing storylines in my head and whatnot. Oh, well...maybe some time in the future...

ahaha its cooly Kyouri jus couldnt help but feel like i was getting left behind T.T LFMAO! but cooly i like the new layout on this 1 anyways gonna have 2 build up all the post i acquired ova thur xD but at least now i know y the hell me & brute were the only 1s posting in the chat lol

First, I would like edit my previous post where I said that 'I'm really fond of those staple titles', to I'm NOT really fond of those staple titles. baka I've never liked the idea of having 'admin' under my name. *shudders*

@ Tsu.. you know you don't owe any apologies. I can't speak for others, but I figured there was a good reason for your absence, and assumed it had something to do with school. I'm still really happy for you getting into Music U. ^^ And thank you ever so much for transferring your uploads over here. Again, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

As for the teams, you're not the only one that had some thoughts going on with some storylines. I'm still really excited about them, and so everyone knows, I didn't delete any of the information or posts, I just moved them.. temporarily. :]

@ zB.. I jumped your butt for leaving for such a long time, and then turn around and make you feel like you've been left behind. *cries* Please forgive. Your presence has been very motivating, uplifting, and down-right comical.. we shant ever leave the z-man behind. XD

LMFAO! coolest of all the Beans xD........i try 2 follow my nose! where it goes RoF! lol but ur giving me 2 much credit motivating? uplifting(sounds heavy)? but good 2 feel appreciated

Well, as long as AD is still alive and running, I'm glad. On a side note, I'm going to start uploading Samurai Champloo. Haven't had a chance to do so, because of an English major research paper.
