Quote by evelluchialike i said why cant we all find a way to keep mai-chan and
the MTM going and alive?
Unfortunately, it's about being able to not only find staff that have the time, but also those that are willing to
commit and not only cooperate, but also maintain a level of standards.
Sadly, Mai-chan wasn't getting much help these days, so she had to shut things down. Perhaps if you can rally
enough supporters and demand for it, MTM could be alive once again!
Everyone wants mai chan back, but as cy said, mai chan wasn't getting much help lately :(
MTM is not only for the members of mt, but it's also by the members. But if
it has only a few contributors then it's only them who have to make something for mtm. And thinking of something
that is good is not that easy even if it's once in a month (at least for me.. i couldn't think of any idea
after 3 mt vessel's comics for the next one :P) But if more members could contribute then everyone will get enough
time to come up with something. Maybe there should be a 'by members' section or something like that, where
anyone can contribute ANYTHING good they wish. Like a joke, or a short story, or a poem, or a comic, or tips, anything!
:P
I think it was allowed even earlier but I don't think it was made clear enough... Making a permanent section for
that and saying 'you can submit anything' will encourage more members to participate xD I hope the members
will be conscious of the 'level of standards' while submitting it as cyan said :P
And I think writing information about the sections of MTM on Mai chan's userpage will be a good idea. That way,
people will know where they can submit things they wish ^^;
For that, some sections should be permanent in the mtm. And the members can contribute in some of these sections.
But if mai chan wishes then she can add a new section. But if it requires members to contribute then she should update
info about it on her userpage and also declare it in the previous mtm.
and um... just my thoughts about some sections:
C/ The MT Planet
D/ Mod Life
I think these two and others if any should be posted under a 'by staff' section. That way, even if they
can't think of anything for an issue, someone else will still be posting something in it ^^'
and other sections like
E/ Hoo's Tips and
D/Member Comics
should be included under 'by members' section. And this is the section which should also include all those
jokes, stories, etc.
I think mai chan should post a list of what things that can be posted in this section on her userpage. Because it might
happen that some member has something to share but isn't sure if it'll be accepted on mtm. It might also
include links to other forum topics, e.g. someone has posted some good poem in the hobbies & sports forums, then it
should be linked here. That way, even the relatively *ahem* neglected forums will get more attention ^^;
and as Hooyaah had once suggested, mai chan should post interviews of normal members too (by 'normal', i mean
those who aren't elite or mod.. i don't mean to say that the staff is not normal xD)</spam ends>
