Title: bout charas
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 15, 2005, 08:14:07 PM

i want to say something about the home page:
By Alex posted: 1/10/2005
 
Lot of thread in the forums about the same subject...
Once for all, some common answers:

YES, charas now has banners. Googlead banners.
One in homepage, one in each generator and one in the
forums.

YES, the one in the forum is bigger in width than the logo.

NO, Alex hasn't "finally gone broke".

NO, neither Charas.

 CHARAS ISN'T CHANGED AND WILL NOT CHANGE.

I say charas is definiatly changed, i can't realy tell how but since i left, the things here are changed A LOT. who thinks this is to or who want to object this!

I've been here since July of 2004,
Not really along time.
But when I first got here, everything was nice.
It is still nice, charas is well-organized and has a great database. Other than more members, and the banners, I say nothing has changed in charas.

the only one from then are a few of the mods, and the rest is all dead. so it is actauly stupid to come twith this tread

Remember when there was a bunch of languages, and now the mods will delete anything that isnt in english.

It's changed. I hate the new Charas. See member title.

It's not the layout I'm talking about. But the attitude in general.

Post by: Drace on March 15, 2005, 09:25:18 PM

Charas has defintly changed from since I was here. It used to have far more members from the young days and much less rules.

Because that's a new name.

But, sadly, no one could spell Shinotebasiiackh. closest so far is Shinobassiack. So I changed it.

Post by: GhostClown on March 15, 2005, 10:42:21 PM

Well, I have never seen a community that hasn't changed. All and every community has to change, because new members join, and the new members are different than the ones there already, makes sense, huh? Charas hasn't 'Changed for the worse' It has changed, but sometimes, change can be good.

It's time for you guy's to start to look at the positive side, just because people were banned, de-modded and left in an angry rage doesn't mean it's all down the hill. We still have the generators, we still have Alex, and yes he is still around. These are Support forums people and I my self would say they turned out rather well, we have 13,970 members total and that's right behind Gaming World, and I'm pretty sure they probably have 20-30 more banned members than charas, if not more.

I do not delete anything thats not in english, but it has to be something like spanish or french, or somehting. Russian and japanese tend to need special scripting. You can get it, it's just alota  people don't have it; so it'll look like jumbled nothing.  and by mods I don't knwo who you're really refering to. Becuase I'm the only All of all mod. XD

Well, actually, I think about it almost every time I log on to Charas






You have to admit that it has changed a little.

From

"All languages admited. Chaos zone!"

to

"Discussions that does not fit other forums. DO NOT SPAM!"

is a bit of a shift.

Interesting. Care to go into further detail? What is it that makes the forum feel more anachistic?

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 16, 2005, 08:59:03 PM

(***) dude what to say now:P well, its a feeling and maybe its becouse this forum growed alot when i was away, i meen every day, lots of posts are setted by some of the 13987 members, i don't say i don't like it but there is something i miss and the old charas had it, thats why i made this tread actualy, to ask if other people have it to.


hello!

Title:
Post by: Razor on March 16, 2005, 09:11:02 PM

Wow, I never thought I'd see you again. You were one of the first to post in the Word Association Game!

And you came along 8 months after Charas was borned.

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 16, 2005, 09:17:18 PM

lol:P yea, but don't you think charas is changed a lot? i can't realy explain how but well... ah nvm

Title:
Post by: Razor on March 16, 2005, 09:24:47 PM

Well, clearly it has.

I'd like to think of the old days as the 60s. Everyone was happy, law enforcement was a thing of the future, everyone was [STRIKE]doing drugs[/STRIKE] happy.

Now it's the harsh 2000s, and everybody is doing everything for themselves. The law has become strict due to terrorist attacks, and there's almost a strange sense of fear as we wonder what we will encounter today.

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 16, 2005, 09:28:03 PM

yea thats a bit what i mean dude! Its not realy a free forum anymore, i dont say it isnt cool but if you understand what razor says, you understand what i meen

Title:
Post by: True Evil on March 16, 2005, 10:01:34 PM

Charas has become less of a forum for RM2K and games it is now just a forum where you can post random things and then people flame you if its stupid. So, yes Charas has changed, I've been here since December-20-2003. But don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that ALL change is bad.

Title:
Post by: Darkfox on March 16, 2005, 10:06:04 PM

My duty is to bring back the topic of the maker... and games. And of course the generators.

Title:
Post by: VahnGrave on March 16, 2005, 10:41:34 PM

I stopped going here as frequently because newbs were piling in like ants to an anthill. If anything changed, its the fact that the frequency of newbs raised.

Title:
Post by: charaman on March 17, 2005, 01:51:04 AM

so far, tho, the newbies have been full fleged n00bs lately.

Title:
Post by: charaman on March 17, 2005, 01:56:04 AM

i joined like right before it was taken away. yea it was pretty cool.

Title:
Post by: Ace of Spades on March 17, 2005, 02:12:31 AM

I'd say that the biggest change is the strictness of the Requests Board. Which was a good change, because now we don't have to worry about somebody requesting and then just leaving. The thing with newbies though...Well, you're right Col. Mustard that we need newbies. We were all newbies once. But, there's a difference between a newbie and a n00b. A newbie is just a new member. A n00b, however, is someone who is just idiotic, spams, doesn't read the rules, and makes several accounts for some sort of joke..*cough* example would be X_marks_the_ed *cough* Charas has changed a bit from since I registered, but not really. I'm not complaining...

Title:
Post by: Ace of Spades on March 17, 2005, 02:30:16 AM

Thanks, but try to stay on topic. However, that is another thing that has changed. Sig sizes! XD

And sig colors, you can't change the colors of font in your sig anymore.

I remember I used to do this, but I straightened myself out after a few times. So please! Stop acting like n00bs!

-> No offense to use you as an example Col. Mustard

Title:
Post by: Ace of Spades on March 17, 2005, 02:59:22 AM

Well, yeah, it was. But it wasn't a full fledged one. A full fledged n00b post saying my sig was cool would've been like this: OMG YOUR SIG IS T3H R0X0RZ!!!!111!!!1one!!!!!!11!!!one!!!!!!!!!  :frag: Die!!!!!

^That's a full fledged n00b post. Stating something that isn't topic related, being an idiot about how you say it, and posting a gun smiley for no reason.

Title:
Post by: True Evil on March 17, 2005, 03:01:38 AM

God I hated that. Remember when all of the n00bs put like, 30 of those things ona  post that just says: "Cool" ? It was so retarded! Why have gun smileys anyway?

Title:
Post by: carmen on March 17, 2005, 04:49:52 AM

Of course It's changed. And you're right, the number of n00bs has increased very much so. Like Razor said, We have to be alittle more restrictive becuase of the mass ammount of people and how they react (which we all have seen a few times) When charas was small, when gary was a mod, when RRWP was our biggest threat... when :frag:  :guns:  :para: was not such a pet peeve. We could say "hey guys lets have a chaos zone!" but now it's much much bigger, and with growing numbers you have growing problems or conflict of opinion.

Thats why moderating has become a tougher job. For everyone, not just myself.  charas has to change. It's not Better or worse. It's just things that come along with change. We've had some growing pains (weird theme song plays) but you have to accept that. Charas is still a huge resourse site, and the generator has only gotten bigger and newer. If anything, We're better. So I don't see why so many complain.

Title:
Post by: Razor on March 17, 2005, 05:02:32 AM

RRWP wasn't a threat, he had a few disagreements with Gary and Midnight. He was our critic, and he kicked áss. After he left, the closest thing we got to a critic was MrMister.

Title:
Post by: carmen on March 17, 2005, 05:18:52 AM

well alot saw him as a threat. Not everyone. And I was trying to more represent the fact that he wasn't a threat. Thats my point, when our bigest threat wasn't a threat...lol I can't believe out of my WHOLE post, you picked that out ..V_v' lets stay on topic.

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 17, 2005, 06:35:58 AM

ya and n00bs don't matter, everyone starts as a noob.
but I agree with carmen to, if there happen so many things things change, right?
but on this forums aren't alot of people who ask for help er lend  there help out. (first, daily requests at the vgrapers) all the new ones who joined the forum just, ask sometimes for help. but after a week or something, they start to like it here and post topics at stuff like:.. well uhm draw yourself in manga, and everybody jumps at it. i don't think that changing that is possible, but i think that there are to less people left here realy for asking for charsets and stuff

There was more than that to pick out? :P
Besides, it's ontopic. A subcategory of what has changed. Yeah. (this however is horribly offtopic, lol, so..)

I get what you meant, since he wasn't a threat, like you said, yeah. There was good times back in the day. And then, blau, we had Kai'rou, linkline, pop, wahba (cough cough) and the unusual package of LR.

Nobody here remembers Don Miguel... or at least a lot don't know him.

So there in fact IS a change in Charas. RPG Maker. Whatever.

Good to have you back DB2.

Title:
Post by: Alex on March 17, 2005, 01:35:40 PM

I read this thread really faster, so i may say something already said.
Anyhow...

What is changed on charas are users: the "cores" are always the same.
In the "old good times" there was no tons of users, and everyone (and i mean EVERYONE) who was here was here because he wanted to do, help, support, create, etc...

The forum was created just to keep in touch with all of them, beause using only my poor email address to do everything became a bit hard ;)

But the forum is also the place where someone can express himself evenif he has no will at all to do, help, support, create, etc...
One day Charas "exploded": famous community, famous name!
That was the beginning: till then, hundreds users signed as charas members without having any idea on what charas was!

What Charas old member miss is this: a working house, where we keep the time of asking ourselves "what's your favourite pet?" while doing for the community something more than only increasing own postcount.

Many of the "glorious member" are almost unknown in the forums, just because they do not post.

I always say this: wanna know HOW forum life of Charas was?
Here it is:
http://www.ombra.net/phorum/list.php?f=15

Now try to compare the topics discussed there with the last 2 months topics discussed here, and you'll have your answers...

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 17, 2005, 01:58:16 PM

... i think the disscusion actualy ended here. its clear to me now, and besides, i don't think anyone would know here to get the "good old times" back (or something like that) and still, charas haves a *** cool forum, if you even look at some other forums and see charas, well i think the most people would choose charas. the reason i first liked the charas forum is that everybody is so cool to eachother, and becouse there are more members now, its normal people get more on their one (i think)
so uhm... well end of the discuision then (if its clear then:S)



.... a nvm hoi

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 17, 2005, 02:33:10 PM

(I don't know to call this off topic or on topic but)
why is Kairou actualy banned, he was a good editor (almost even better then me :) ) and i heard that he was banned becouse of just one singel (very bad) topic, so i just wanna know.

Title:
Post by: Alex on March 17, 2005, 02:40:58 PM

He did many things against all the community, insulting and being childish as i never saw anyone else.
You missed all of the "pop" thing too, i think.
And in that thread he posted his user/pass while being mod!!!

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 17, 2005, 02:44:58 PM

then i think he was hacked, but i just wanned to know, tnx :)

Post by: SaiKar on March 17, 2005, 03:28:09 PM

Hey, it's dark barrier! I have not seen you in forever! Yeah, a few things have changed. I became an admin. oO Bet you ever saw that coming from a battle character artist, huh?

I would say things have changed. Too many people have become too confident in themselves around here. "We" have been here a long time , and "they" are newer, so it is okay to talk down to them and call them n00bs. When did it became okay practice to do this here?

To me, the heart of Charas was not the All of All. It was the request forum, where people working on games came to share ideas and help eachother out. All of All was merely a diversion, something to come to when I got burned out of requests. But now All of All is pretty much the end-all of Charas and the Request forum is  a sad joke these days. It is saddening.

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 17, 2005, 03:41:00 PM

lol hi saikar :) . never thought there would be so much people still here :) . youre right that requests is quiet here, but i think it is also becouse there are lot of people who talk down about new ones and stuff. noobs are mostly the ones wich wanted some requests.
but i don't realy understand why they get talked down:

this is on almost every forum a problem.
a forum grows with new people, and everyone has been once one  (i was at least:P), without new people a forum just can't grow. and why talk down? i know somethimes they say or ask the dumbest things but just ignore it or just try to help them, if they get barked they get away from a forum in less then 3 days.
why don't we make this a new disscusion?
 "Noobs are stupid and its ok to bring them down"

i'm against it!!!

nvm actualy...

DB2, in regards to the spammers, if you were here a month or two ago, you would've been in a vastly different Charas. One you wouldn't wanna come back to.

Ah.... Don Miguel. I never signed up for his forum because back then It took me three days to download rm2k. My comp was slow.

Title:
Post by: Reain_ on March 18, 2005, 06:51:38 AM

Yup I'd Say charas has change, Thats one reason why I haven't been around Much. I remember when I first came to charas, It was one of the first communitys that I could actually stand because everyone was so nice, and quickly I got to know just about everyone and become friends with them.

Thats how I liked it when you knew everyone at the forums or the majority. and everyone knew who you were (almost like that show Cheers). Thats the change I see In charas more and more people sign up and it's hard to actually get to know some one.

Yea plus things also had to be stricter around here, people arent as laid back as before only because of people wanting to spam and doing things that have to keep everyone always working hard instead of relaxing here.

I practually don't know alot of the people now ... I only know a few and one's I did know don't come around any more, They Vanished like I had for a while.

Also Alex aint around as much either, that was another good thing about charas that had changed, The head guy was around and got to know his members but now he is too busy and can only come around every now and then. That is one thing I miss but He has a life and we can't take that away.

Title:
Post by: dark barrier2 on March 18, 2005, 07:13:45 AM

hey, i know you to:D but alex is online alot i think, but he doesn't talk alot anymore also becose there are alot of members, so he's just sitting and keeping an eye on thngs

Title:
Post by: Alex on March 18, 2005, 07:33:44 AM

That's right, DB2.
One thing was being around to know my members when they was less than 30, one thing when they are more than 14.000.
I think there's no human mind that can pretend to "know" more than 14.000 single entities.

Maybe we should open a "secret forum" somwhere, and inform about it only "selected members", LOL!

I know it's impossible to have back the old times with all these ppls around, but i truly hope reading this thread may help to make some of them more like we were in the past.
We never changed, as i said in the news you started this thread with: we are experiencing the passage from a "small mountain village" to a "big metropolis". Let's hope the progress will not kill all of us.
I'll do my best not to change myself.

Mmm Guess I just never Catch him on much then.

But Actually That Secret Forum Thing I have Thought Of before ... but I just never did it cuz I wouldn't be able to run it that well due to the fact I already have a site and board to run right now for my band. Though I can always do graphics ^_^
Mabey If I do Get Free Time I Could make the board and give the admin power to some one else as well and they could run it.

But I do know one thing I won't change much either, and If I do I already told my friends to smack me silly till I change back or end up with brain damage.

Maybe we should open a "secret forum" somwhere, and inform about it only "selected members", LOL!

I second that. Although it depends on how far back you want to go. If it's farther back than me, then no. :P

I can still remember the pre-RRWP era. I remember when the forgotten made Charas' first article. I also remembered the official opening of the faceset generator.

And how about the first time the sprites contest started? It was the first and the last I have entered. And I made every banner for it.

I guess it's time for me now to pass the bannerflag to someone fresh. I'm taking a break for bannering. Now if only a new contest would start...

But I also remembered what happened after the RRWP era. I know I keep whining about it, but I know that RRWP did open our eyes. Charas was vurnerable. And he knew Charas wouldn't survive if we kept our mentality. Actually, it was the other way around, we did survive with our old mentality, the only thing that drove us apart was our distance between each other.

After a while there was something going on between everybody. Me against the world, Darkfox against KaIrOu... or the other way around... who appeared to be pop. I believe he wasn't hacked though. People who live near him knew he was pop.

But it became worse. And from here I kind of forgot.

^I don't know if it was supposed to be funny or not, but I couldn't stop laughing for at least 10 minutes after I read that last sentence. Anyone else, or am I just strange?

Don Miguel is a horrible rapist!
I had a nightmare about him, he appeared as that weird RTP character in his sample game.

On one side I'm pro secret forum. On the other side... it still won't bring back the old feeling if some mid-2004 members are still able to view it.

I would have to use my old screen name, anyway. And make a new sig.

Well, here's the thing

Someone makes the secret forum, then it is only past around via PM/email.

and if people find out about it, we make it so we make the account first, give the person their password, and that... won't stop people from making their own accounts.


Damn.

Well, I'm probably coming in a little late on this dicussion, but I feel like I have to say my peice.  I agree with many when they say Charas has evolved and for the best, else it likely would have imploded by now,  and I beleive it will continue to evolve and prosper in the future.  Any one who's keeping track knows there's been several times (at least 3) where the death of Charas has been foreseen, but it bounces back everytime.  I personally think it would take something catestrophic before this place changes for the worse.  But I'm just ranting now and basically repeating what has already been said, so I'm out to slink around in the background again.  Cheers.

You do forget that Charas WILL die eventually. Everything that has a beginning has an end.

what if, though completely unlikely, Charas lives on literally forever?

Then an alien civilisation will find it after mankind is extinct, and the computers will survive the big crunch, and therefore the big bang.
