Hi guys^^
I just thought of something regarding the forum and the members
of the RC blog.
Wouldn't it be useful to have a private category of the forum,
reserved to the admins of the blog, to talk strictly about blog
administration and stuff?
Of course, any new project could still be presented here, as a
means to gain new followers... But I'm guessing that if we want
to talk about other stuff (such as the top3 of the month, or how
to answer asks if we ever got hate or things like that, or other
things I wouldn't know about yet... could also be a little
guidelines for admins so that anyone joining us would know
better what we're all about)
I don't know, I guess it could be useful. I'd create a
"Restructural Committee" status for forum members who would also
be admins (I guess all of us who chatted here in the last few
days are part of this project, right?) and make the new category
available only to us.
Let me know what you think!
And [member=18]Weisel[/member], don't heistate to jump in^^ I
guess there are still a few texts missing if you want to try and
write one, I might try it later too but right now I need to go
buy something for lunch :p
(Also I'm all for being corrected too, I just want to get better
so it's always good to know^^)

Thank you so much [member=24]Curiousscarletteyes[/member]
You don't have to feel guilty, and I think nobody thinks that
it's insulting. ^^ I didn't know that fanwork and fanfiction are
the plural form, for example. (But Fanworks is ok, right? The
plural form is fanworks, not fanwork... o.o) Thanks for your
help. I put the text in our guidline post and corrected the
other mistake, too. ^^
Ah, btw... would section be a better word? I thought about a
section of a newspaper... Something like a column... since it
should be something like that. Each "section" will get a banner
we'll use when we post something for that topic. Maybe we'll
have other stuff in the future... Ahh... I hope you can
understand what I try to say. LOL XD In German it's "Rubrik" and
when I translate it with ddict I get this:
HTML http://www.dict.cc/?s=Rubrik
(o.o)
[member=18]Weisel[/member]: There's a lot you can do. If you've
any ideas, just let us know. We all are very eager and motivated
at the moment. And I guess some are a bit too dominant (like
me... I'm sorry, guys... It's just...I'm so full of ideas and I
wanna plan on everything at the same time and immediately... I
start to scare myself LOL XD) Please don't be shy... let us know
what you think, what you want... or when you want to help. When
more people help we can have more special projects. ^^ Is there
a task you want? Like sourcing fanarts, asking Japanese people
on pixiv if we are allowed to repost their art... Or another
task you'd like to do? I don't want to give people tasks...
(even if there are things we really have to do, like
sourcing...) But I don't want to feel like a dictator. :3
[member=1]Yuneyn[/member]:
Oh yes, please! :3 That's a very good idea! Right, there are
some things that should stay in a private part of the forum so
that not everybody can see it. >,< (Also stuff like guidlines
and so one...)

Okay, I'll open it then^^
I'll do it pretty quickly because - as I thought - my friend
called me an hour ago to see if I wanted to meet this afternoon
so I need to leave soon. So [member=2]Ahiku[/member], don't
hesitate to change things, it'll be pretty basic.

Thank you! Ok, I'll do this later. Or you can do this when
you've a bit time left, there's no need to hurry. At the moment
we all are RC people. So it's enough when it's done until next
week when we start the blog. ^^
I'll start to draw various banners today. ^^
Ah, have a nice day then! X3

@Everyone You're all really incredible for being able to speak
two languages so well ;w; <3 And are all wonderfully kind,
fantastic people.
@Ahiku Fanworks can stay the way it is. That's fine :D Because
there's "a work of art" when referring to one and then "works of
art" when referring to more than one so it's good. I'm actually
really glad we're all motivated and eager, and it's okay because
you have lots of ideas and just want to get them all out there.
I don't see it as dominant. You're just really inspired ;w;
Section is a good substitute! I understand what you're trying to
say, don't worry xD. I just wasn't sure what to call our
different sections. Sometimes whenever I need a word I blank and
it's frustrating. Also, I looked up the definition to rubric and
apparently it can be used as a section .___. But here we're all
brought up knowing that it's a grading scale for a project so
that association comes up.
@Weisel I agree! There is still lots to do and we can still use
lots of help.
@Yuneyn I see that we all have our titles :D Thanks for creating
another space we can discuss these things.

[member=24]Curiousscarletteyes[/member]: Aww ;_; *hugs you*
Ah, I see. Thanks for explaining, sensei! Ok! Section then! :3
I'll complete our first text then.
Oh, I'm glad I'm not too dominant. >,< I've so many ideas at the
moment... and I really hope that our blog will be a gain for the
No. 6 fandom. We'll try our best!
Hmmm... we also need a text for our first blog entry. I'll think
about it later. Or if you guys might think about it, too it
would be fine. ^^
Btw., wenn do we wanna start? Right on Monday?

Okay guys, since I was studying for a midterm this week, it
seems I missed all the action!
I just wanted to let you all know, though, that I already run a
Homestuck art blog, which routinely posts new art or photosets
to the internet, as well as reblogging a lot of pre-existing
stuff. SO, I have practice at this kind of thing, and I would be
happy to help out with a No. 6 source blog. Actually, what I
think I'd like to do is go through the tag and complain at
people for not sourcing. That is a thing I can do.
TBH, I haven't read through all four of the other pages of this
discussion. Could someone please summarize it for me? ^^;;

Oh... by the way, may I please also be on the Restructural
Committee? I would like very much to take part! I wasn't hear
earlier in the week because of intense computer science
studying...

Yeah, of course! :3 I've sent you an invitation. And as soon as
I know how to put people in that CF group in our forum I'll put
you in there so that you can see our private forum part. :3
A summary... Wait a second...
We have a blog:
HTML http://restructuralcommittee.tumblr.com/
We'll start to post things there next week, since we wanted to
wait a couple of days until things have settled down on tumblr.
Our intention is to source stolen art, repost art with
permission, reblog No. 6 art and links to fanfictions, but we
also want to have our own stuff, like our monthly "fanworks of
the month" where people can suggest their favorite fanfiction,
fanart and blog (here or via submit on tumblr).
We're going to have a casual No. 6 Day each month and a couple
of special events, for example Holy Days (Christmas).
And our second section will be RC Talk... I thought we could
write those little omake things.
I thought it's important that we also do something. Not just
reblogging or posting art that doesn't belong to us.
You can find guidlines (texts sources, tags, links) and the
pictures in our private section. ^^
And I go and try to put you in the RC group now. EDIT: Done!
Please refresh! And welcome! :3

@Ahiku thank you so much!! :D
I'm super excited to be a part of this you guys. So excite.
Okay, as someone who runs a high-output artblog, I gotta say
this: the queue is our friend, and so are drafts. If we start
building a stock of drafts now, then we'll always have something
to post when we want to, even when things are slow. In order to
do that, what I'm thinking is that we could go through really,
really old and/or not-much-reblogged fanart and put it in the
drafts. Also, I know we're all from different countries, so we
blog about things at all hours of the day and night. If we stuck
stuff in the queue, it would ensure a steady flow of posts no
matter who is posting.
I could get on any of these things this weekend, if people want.
The other thing is, tags. We gotta establish some tag
guidelines. I'm thinking, we need a cute tag for original
contributions our blog outputs, and then everything else gets
tagged by artist, and character or canon location, and special
tags like AU or whatever.
Now this is just how I run my blog. But I've found that it's a
pretty efficient system. This is just a suggestion. If people
don't want to tag stuff, or they hate the queue or something,
I'm not gonna get mad or whatever. Just a thought!
(Also, your previous reply to me made it sound like this should
be talked about on the administration board, but I wasn't sure
which thread to put it in? There doesn't seem to be one for tags
yet! Gomen!)
