Since there seems to have been an influx of newcomers lately, and their actions and behaviour has started to grate on the regular visitors of this site, once again Anon has risen in /blue/.

So, in order to help inform the newcomers of present and future, this thread will be a place for general board etiquette and other miscellaneous information to help the population as a whole. I apologize if there's any seemingly 'important' information I leave out at first, since I'm typing this off the top of my head.

Important Information

1) Emoticons are discouraged. Be they :(, or >.>, or ^_^, or even the dreaded xD, they are not required, and you will only be scorned and mocked for using them. You are able to post without them (I should hope), so if you absolutely must convey your emotional state, do so with words.

2) This is an imageboard for voting on, discussing and chatting about Touhou and Touhou fanfiction. *Actions* are not required, and are looked down upon. The only implied actions occurring in imageboard posts should be limited solely to story narrative and other creative writing ventures. Like emoticons, you will be mocked.

3) Posts made in the story boards, and in story threads, should try to stay on topic. Discussion related to events of the story are fine, and chatter about various other facets of related material to the story is acceptable as per author's judgment. Prolonged shitstorms over things not related to the story at all are naturally not acceptable, and will result in post deletions at best, and temp bans at worst. No one wants to see posts between two or more anons bitching at each other over nothing.

3a) Sometimes, arguments over various actions within the story context can spark up due to conflicts in personal interests and how votes made to cater to a particular taste might oppose others. While they can be unavoidable, it's preferred to keep them at a minimum. Everyone has their own tastes, and surely they can clash at times when opposing groups have two differing views on what should happen, and these prolonged arguments can derail threads, and even cause the writers to lo

Nope. It's related to your password. The page will create one automatically, but you have to write your own if you want to be able to erase the post later.

Since people don't tend to read news pages, I'm creating this thread here to communicate with the community.

For starters, a link to the archives: http://z4.invisionfree.com/touhouvn/index.php?showtopic=176

An easier-to-use solution is being worked on for archives and will be implemented.

The site is back up and working more or less as you remember it. Some of the fixes we devised previously have yet to be applied (no. working incorrectly for example) but it's just a matter of time. I'd like to encourage any user to contact an admin on irc or via mail if any issues crop up (our moderators are the same as before as well).

With that said, time to discuss some of the changes. /th/ is our general story board, meaning that any story that isn't necessarily tied down to a location belongs there. /gensokyo/ will be our general discussion board, and while stories aren't discouraged here (some quick or experimental pieces are more than welcome), discussion that doesn't necessarily pertain to stories or are pertaining to the general fandom go here. I'd like to encourage the people who wish to move their stories from /gensokyo/ to contact an admin, and we will gladly do so.
Oh, before I forget. Post limit before autosage on all boards is 250, and character limit is 30,000.

Some specifics about new features and further changes will be posted here in the future, so keep an eye on this spot.

In order to better accommodate stories and the expanding cast of the Touhou series the names of the boards have been changed so as to explicitly include certain areas and characters. Do be mindful that, as always, this is not an absolute delineation and is a guideline so as to hopefully sort any real confusion as to what might go where. Feel free to continue to exercise common sense and not sacrifice creativity if something doesn't fit 100% into one of these molds.

On a different note, there is a downloader for threads at >>7144

You may be interested in using this tool or, as always, the story list and archives are always available.

Okay, so apparently, Kisume eats people (big news), keeps their heads, and sometimes use them to play hide-and-seek. Sometimes, you see a head popping out of bucket. Save it's not her. It's one of her victim's heads.

>Several characters have outright stated that Gensokyo's peace is on the razor's edge, and is not sustainable. In fact, a decent portion of SoPM is dedicated to this topic. But anyone that has been paying attention to all the shit Zun has written over the years already probably knew that.

Could you give some quotes supporting that argument?

I agree with you by the way but I can't be 100% sure without some direct quotes from canon.
>> No. 9465
>>9463
I wouldn't go that far but I believe Akyuu's afterwards in PoSM remarks on the balance of power in Gensokyo and how peace is sustained by the fact that the factions keep each other in check.

So if one faction were to gain a considerable amount of power and do something with it, the balance would be broken.

The manga specifies that no supernatural powers were used for the murder, in what amounts to red truth. If supernatural powers were used, it opens up a huge can of worms and drags in at least a dozen possibilities for outside culprits.

Obviously it was Yukari, manipulating the borders between the natural and supernatural.

With the amount of time I've been spending on this site, I feel that it could use a board or archive for the cultural aspects. I.E. A summary or chronology about the massive shitstorms over GH, who the heavyweight writefags are, what pisses people off, etc. It could help newcomers get used to the environment (the wonderful, positive atmosphere and friendly people), and more importantly, influence new posters to not repeat the bad things that happen in the past.

So what do you think Anon?

who, GM? She abandoned WUiG not long after it moved here (or, rather, touhouproject.com). She never went on IRC very often, and hasn't been in #THP. I don't think she's even aware that the site is still around, or it has a hyphen now, or that the main IRC moved to #THP.
>> No. 9366

I think she's aware. Or, at the very least, could find out what happened to the site if she wanted to. There are a few people here who have a line of communication to her.
>> No. 9367
>>9366
I was one of them, as I knew her from online games since about 3 years before she started WUiG.

Except she stopped going on AIM, so I never talk to her anymore.

Recommend CYOAs and plug your favorite stories here. Take your bitching to /blue/. This thread is for complimenting good stories and directing readers their way!

I'd say that a bad ending, or a rushed one, is often worse than no ending at all. That "happily ever after" can feel like an anticlimactic cop out.
>> No. 9256
>>9255
How should an ending be anyway? Should it explain and wrap up every single plot point in the story? Or should it be an open ending where the readers can decide for themselves how the story ended?
>> No. 9257
>>9256
That, my friend, depends on the author and the story he's telling. There's probably no real consensus here, just whatever feels right. It might also depend a little on the genre, since thrillers and whodunnits tend to wrap up plot points more often than not.

“Hey! Sakuranbo! Where are you, Sakuranbo?”
“I am here, Mistress. By the way, my name is Sakuy-”
“Don't interrupt me when I'm speaking, Suteresusetsu.”
“My apologies, Mistress.”
“In any case, has the gentlemen we called for arrived, yet?”
“Yes, Mistress. He is currently waiting in one of the guest rooms. Shall I summon him?”
“Yes, bring him to me at once.”
“As you wish, Mistress.”

“Now then, young man, I trust you know why you're here?”
“Um, vaguely. You were wanting ideas for a presentation of some sort?”
“Presentation? Blah. Any dullard with a chart and pointer can give a 'presentation'! I'm talking spectacle, here! Something so fantastic and pulsing with charisma that it will knock the socks off of anyone who sees it!”
