I know it would have little, if any, impact on the respective anime and manga board, at present. But the problem is with the main page. It's all news. Mostly about live action stuff. Some stuff about anime and manga but it's all release dates and upcoming shows and stuff like that. And most people who come around looking for news don't really hang around long, I reckon. I mean, not even any of us members leave comments on those articles. One or two, here and there. Every now and then. The main page may have lots of informative articles but aside from two reviews, that's it. Oh, link to the forum and the podcasts. But the main page seems so lifeless that I bet most people don't care. They read the news and vanish again. I reckon by branching out we (and by we I mean any of us who can actually be arsed) can create all kinds of info databases and image galleries and trivia banks and all kinds of sht. I dunno, would we need some kind of license to do that? And you may be thinking that won't do fck all but I think it does, I think it makes people hang around a bit longer, read some of the bios on their favourite manga or flick through some anime stills. And even if they go after that, they might come back again. It shows life. It makes this site look like more than something a couple of guys update once or twice a week. It makes it look more like something that's been worked on and developed. And that's what I think will attract good, active and enthusiastic members. Yeah, get your sniggering over with Elder. You may think it sounds crazy and I appreciate if some of you don't value my opinion since I haven't been very active of late but I think you should give it some thought.
