good points Gordon...

The background...hmm ok i will work on a new background and or template...may take me a little time... but will do it...

access... well that is there because hopefully it will deter trolls.... only for this month will it be set that way...


How will it deter trolls? Set it so a guest can view only, not post. There is no foolproof way to deter trolls unless you moderate it closely which I don't think is your aim.

Hey Brandon,

How do you post a message or article? It's not as transparent as other forums I've seen, and I'm not used to the system yet...

Hey, also, the text displays too small for teachers who squint at essays all day...Is there anything you can do to remedy the readability?

lets see, your front page opens with two women kissing, a life-size condom, articles about sluts and porno and soaplands.


Anything else we should know about that we cant find on Waiwai?

Well lostgaijin, just wasted 5 minutes of my life looking at your website.

Some words come to mind, about the content.

Crass
Inane
Immature
Exactly the kind of thing that gets gaijin a bad name in Japan.


The actual layout is not bad, though.

Please do something original, write something informative instead of titillating.

Thanks for the comments...

I must point out that as its a very new site, only a week old it has NO content to speak of yet and as Im not a writer nor claim to be hoped that the stories would come from you..!!! Im just adding Wai Wai articles because its better than looking at an empty page. Again, im not a writer, and would love it if others were the submitters and i can just make sure the site doesnt crash... Confused ( Im an IT guy ).

Im glad you like the layout and yes the pictures are a little left field but again hope that some of u would like to post stories so as u can determine the theme, tone and context of the site.

to submit a story u just have to click on "submit news" on the right hand side menu and u dont need to even be registered to do that.... but yes u do need to be to view and partake in forums.

as for the text size, I will work on it Liz and try to make it bigger...

I fixed alot of things on the site and now should be easier to navigate...

this is ur site, the community, pls write some stuff for it so i dont have too...Smile Cool

wow, what a way to see it grow.. tons Very Happy users in under 2 weeks..not bad at all. I am hoping with our new mod, Sven this will become the site for Gaijins in Japan.. There were a couple of bumps, but wow it has taken off. Thanks to all those who supported us...
