A new is in the works for the forum after the move. The only dilemma is that I currently lack a color scheme to work with.

So instead of waiting for inspiration and idly asking a few members that I have on MSN, I decided it would be more productive to post up here, and hopefully get some solid ideas in response.

What colors would you like to see when the new forum goes up? Yes, it will be a proboards skin, and we will only have one. A few of you might question as to why, seeing as how Proboards grants the option of choosing from multiple skins. The answer to that, is that the coding defines a good portion of the skin has to go in the global headers/footers, which are seen throughout the site regardless of your skin. So, yeah.

So, post away. Just keep in mind that when you post, please post a suggestion and not just some arbitrary comments that detracts from the point of this topic. For a more sturdy set of guidelines of what I'm expecting, follow the list:

• 
  
• Don't comment on other people's suggestions. If you like it, then just suggest the same thing. If you don't, offer another idea without saying anything about someone else's suggestion.
  
• When suggesting, please provide hexadecimal values and a general idea of what you have in mind. I don't mind if you aren't precise in explaining things, or have exact values of what should go where. But please, don't just say "I want more color" or "I want it lighter". Does that really seem like it is of any help? Well, it's not and I'd appreciate it if you didn't make my life harder by making me attempt to decipher what you mean.
  

Thanks in advance to any assistance in this matter. This is really important, and I need as much help as I can.

Calling all active members to post here. Just a head count.

And please, do state your amount of characters.

Mine would be 3.

It seems the Cbox has expired once again, as we cannot post~

If you want to help pay for a premium Cbox, you should contact Maria. I believe you can send her funds to help pay for the premium Cbox, which is two (2) US Dollars per month. Please help out the site~

Until we can get the Cbox back up and running again, please feel free to use the Spam Forum for chatting.

As a few of you know, it was my intention to do a complete overhaul of the jutsu section. Currently, only the Universal jutsu, which is two sections, have been completed to do so.

Since this task is so large, and because I do not have as much time to devote to the task anymore, I'm posting here to ask for help in this task. Now, I have asked for help before. A few people volunteered, and little got done. I'm not blaming this on anyone, since it was purely optional, and any help was appreciated.

However, with the move withing sight, it seems more pressing than before to get it finished. Volunteers are welcome, though I am making it a requirement for members of the Jutsu Staff to aid in this pursuit.

• 
  
• Universal Jutsu
  
• Universal Taijutsu
  
• Konohagakure [Partially done. I'll PM the list to whoever takes this.]
  
• Iwakagure
  
• Sunagakure
  
• Kirigakure - Kutsuu
  
• Kumogakure
  
• Kusagakure
  
• Otogakure
  
• Yukigakure
  

The above list is the jutsu scrolls that are going to be our primary focus. Do not worry about the sub-jutsu for the time being, just the village's jutsu. I want you to post which section you are taking. Take one at a time, and PM the finished result to me (details below) before taking another.

For now, the prime objective is organization and balancing, so you'll be following the template below:

Code:

 


[b]Letter Rank:[/b]
Japanese Name [English Name]
[i][Requirements][/i]
Description

Japanese Name [English Name]
[i][Requirements][/i]
Description

and so on...

You alphabetize each rank division. If you see a jutsu with just an english name, use mahou.org/Dict and select Japanese and translate it one word at a time. Use your own judgement to make the best choice from the words it gives you. If the situation is vice-versa, try to find the english translation using the same method above. If it fails, it was probably randomly made up, so just put "---" for the english name. If you have questions regarding it, check the Universal Jutsu for an example first, and then PM me if you still have trouble.

When you finish your section, PM me your finished work. Please put it within the [-- code --] tag. If you find duplicates, leave them in, but let me know. I'll take it into account when I get to re-writing the descriptions.

Basically, that's the first step for now. After that gets done for all of the village jutsu, we can move on to the next step.

Well, it didn't take long. I have two winners. Good job you two.

• 
  
• Aburame Kagerou: Congratulations, you won first prize of one A Rank jutsu.
  
• Ageha Karasu: Congratulations, you have won second prize of one B Rank jutsu.
  

Winners, your won jutsu can come only from Universal or Village jutsu. Please PM me the jutsu you have chosen, and I will edit it in to your bios.

World of Naruto
Writing Contest
Spring 2009

Alright! It is about time we had another writing contest roll around!

This time, the theme for the contest is a day at the beach. Write up a story of your character having a good time at the beach, either alone or with friends, anything! Fighting is frowned upon. D=<

NPCs are allowed.

Oh, and of course, being a contest, there's prizes! I will pick up to three winners for the contest.

Prizes:

• 
  
• First place gets one A rank jutsu
  
• Second place gets one B rank jutsu
  
• Third gets one C rank jutsu
  

Alas, every contest has rules and restrictions.


Rules and Restrictions:

• 
  
• First and foremost, this is about having a fun time at the beach. Entries with fighting or violence in them will not be considered for a prize.
  
• ONE ENTRY ONLY! Multiple entries for the same character will not be accepted. If you try to use a second account to get by this ruling, that will also be declined, and I won't have to read your entry.
  
• There is no rank or post requirement, but I want a minimum of 300 words.
  
• Entries not accepted after deadline
  
• Deadline is Wednesday May 6th, at 6:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
  
• All entries must be sent to me in a PM. I only accept entries sent to this account (Spoon).
  
• All entries must use the template provided
  
• Not all prizes will be given out.
  
• All decisions on winners are FINAL.
  
• If you win a Jutsu, it can only be from your village or the universal scrolls.
  

And here's the template. Remember to send entries in a PM to my Counsel account (Spoon):

Code:

 


[color=#000]Forum Name:[/color]
[color=#000]Character Name:[/color]
[color=#000]Character Rank:[/color]
[color=#000]Sample (Minimum 300 words):[/color]

As there have been many complaints, a drop in members, and a lack of productivity, WoN will be going through another revamp. This time, however, everything will be worked out beforehand, and the site will not be closed until everything is ready to be implemented.

Please help us out by:

Giving us your input
Voting on canons
Applying to help out

Well, nobody seems to want to RP in UA, so for now Urban Assassin is closed. It's been dead for a long time, and I'm sick of making great adjustments, and bringing in great ideas just to have people ignore them. I personally saw a great potential for UA.

The cbox subscription just ran out, so it'll be a little while before we can get it up and running again. Please use the spam area in the lounge to communicate for now.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

This is a notice that reviews for WoN staff are commencing. For those members who don't know what this is, it's a seasonal review when the activities of staff are looked over and it is decided by the admin whether individuals are no longer needed, staff jobs need to be adjusted, as well as opportunities for members to get jobs as staff in WoN are posted. This is a somewhat paced process, so do not expect complete changes all too soon, however, if you are a member seeking to help out in WoN, please send a PM to Maria outlining the reason why you should help, as well as areas which you'd like to help out in. This is also a chance for members to message me directly about any concerns they may have regarding how WoN is run, as well as the people who work in it. All concerns are kept confidential, and is taken very seriously.

Thank you again members, for making WoN a great community!
