Quote:If Crunchyroll still allows users to upload stuff (I don't know, I've never used it), and it still has unlicensed stuff there, then it doesn't belong here. Since people would have a tougher time knowing whether or not something is licensed, I'd rather err on the side of caution.Originally Posted by ketch
Well, if you like to go about things legally Crunchyroll is the place for you to see a lot of things that haven't been/won't be released in the states. They have an agreement with several studios and broadcasters to air sub-titled shows a week after they have been transmitted and with some even simulcast with the Japanese broadcasts. There are quite a few things there that I'll be watching this season (Natsu no Arashi 2, Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu) and things I've enjoyed in this past season (Sora no Otoshimono).
There are too many good shows that will never make it to the US or be horribly subbed and edited to pieces if they make it. I'm glad Crunchyroll is providing an opportunity to see things before the excessively expensive DVD's come out. -
Ok guys, couple of things that may or may not be an issue...
First, try to give the names as what a Region 1 viewer would find them as in the store.
Second, only titles officially released outside of Japan. I don't care about fansubs nor do I want to endorse them.
Thirdly, try and limit suggestions to one primary genre. If I tried categorizing them by every permutation, there probably wouldn't be more than one in that genre.
Just some things I thought of.

In the interests of those who enjoy it, and given that every so often we get a thread asking for recommendations, I thought to start up one for anime, much like Foamie's Comics thread.
We'll break these down by genre and people can, if they wish, either give a + or a - for titles, as well as adding other titles.

Here's what I did for it (this only really works if you don't mind spending a lot of influence).
Go to a salvage type that has just about equal parts available and people that are buying. Buy up as much as you can for anywhere from 100 to 1000 per (or whatever your limit is). Then turn around and sell for 1. You should see your stacks get sold pretty quick. Buy some more until there is no more left or you reach your point of not wanting to pay for it. Rinse and repeat for that type of salvage. Move on to another type.
Sure, you'll spend a lot of money, but you'll a) get your badge; and b) help others get theirs. -
I think by 'no-one' he meant his characters, not the game as a whole.
That being said, I'll be getting Back From the Future and Immortal with my Hero main when the changes go live. I'll need about 350 million more inf to get Leader, but that is a heckuva lot more doable than 1.85 billion. >.< -

Is there a limit to the number of times we can change? That is one of the things I miss from the UBB forums.

I was going off what I could confirm from a combination of InStockTrades, Wiki, and Amazon.
It said there were actually like 39 volumes or something, but I only listed the ones I could fine titles for. -

Other than friends, super/villain group, base, existing characters, etc., ya there's nothing stopping one from moving servers.
-
Ya, they should extend the double exp another day or two to make up for this rather...less than optimal...situation. And I don't really think this can be blamed on server load, since well, Protector is one of the least populated servers. Just my opinion of course.
-

Is Virtue on the same server cluster as Protector & Champion? If so, that would explain it. The entire farm needs to have its hamster rebooted.
-
This just gets worse and worse. The forums were just about the only thing keeping me subbed. And now they've made pretty much everything a PITA, for me at least.
Not only are they slower than a sloth now, they succeeded in making them ugly, clunky, removed features (name changing and easy quoting), and space-wasting. -
Ok, just how the heck do you do a multi-quote? I click that little button next to "Quote", but it just leaves me replying to one person, rather the quote block of everything.
-
Don't bother.
They posted a message that in 20 mins, the server will go down for maintenence. -
Got in, but dang was it slow.
Like molasses in January slow. -

I hope it are fixed soon. I've got a Defender that I want to get to 50 then shelve this weekend...
>.< -
Ya, I know.
And then there's Avatar images as well. Makes a one-line post into a 2-3 inch tall message.
IMHO, I don't think very much was gained for the three days of work it took to do this. -
Just trying to log in to Protector and am getting the "Lost Connection to DBServer" message.
Tried Champion (same message) and Freedom (was able to get in).
Anyone else? -
Honestly, there's WAY too much blank space in this new setup.
Forum topics = about 90% wasted space, which given the way they set up the thread author means that 10 topics take up about the half the damn screen.
The old forums were compact, elegant, and nice IMO. Image sigs? I hate those damn things.
