Welcome to the second newsletter. These will be put out periodically by myself and the moderators as a way to keep you all up to date on what is going on at the forums. You are getting this email because you are a member of TGA Online, if you are not, or do not wish to recieve this article, please contact me. Future emails will be imaged based, but we'll always have a text version in the headlines.
Remember if you ever have any questions, please feel free to email or private message myself and the moderator team.
NOTE: If your email bounces this message, we will place your account under suspension until that or a new email address is verified.
// ### Site News ###################################
NEW: We're opening our Photopost gallery! It's not completely done yet and it looks like crap, but we thought that we'd at least give you the oppertunity to upload pictures and comment. The style will be changing as soon as we figure out how the damn template system works, so bear with us as we make these changes. If you would like to add a catagory that we are missing, PM Bryan and he'll add it as soon as possible. You can visit Photopost at "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/photopost".
NEW: For those of you that are new, we were nominiated for the "vBulletin of the Month Award" last month. We didn't win unfortunately, but we did have a great following and tied for second place with another game site (http://www.mgforums.com/). Well, there's always August.
REVISITED: We've been getting a lot of questions about karma. We have to admit that for the first 2 months it really didn't do much except tell you the overal quality of people's posts, but now that's all changed. We won't tell you exactly what the change is, but it happens when you fall below 0 points. We're also considering upping the number of power points users have so they can have more of an effect on other's karma. But for more information on the User Tier system visit "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/forums/showthread.php?t=246". Also, to keep up to date with the Karma system, visit "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1".
REPEAT: By now, I'm sure you have all spotted the new TGA Online Arcade, if not you can access it here @ "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/forums/arcade.php". This feature was put in to thank the members who have put in their time to make our first month of life a phenomenal success! Just as a reminder, you have to have 25 legit posts in order to play. Remember that postwhoring will not be tolerated. We will be adding more games to the list as soon as we can, and as long as we find good ones. If you would like to take part in which games make it to the arcade visit "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/forums/showthread.php?t=346".
// ### Community Feedback ##########################
As we move along into this month and beyond, we want to stress that your feedback is important! With all the work that is done everyday, there are bound to be mistakes. We're human, we make them. :] Make sure you use the Site Feedback forum to let us know what you think, what you want to see changed, added, or improved. Right now there is a major style upgrade going on, which is why the current style has gotten so simple. But let us know how we're doing @ "http://www.tokyogameaction.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=22".
