I'm in an image mood today.
I believe this has been proposed before, but I'm proposing a Guilty Gear blog. ALLOW ME TO STATE MY REASONS!
1. The game is getting increasingly popular amoungst those who play it, which is a fair amount of people here.
2. Making a thread about it in the Fighting Board would make the conversations become cluttered. A game with so much to talk about (for those of you who don't play it, there's a lot) can't be restricted to one thread.
3. On a note of gameplay, I believe that by learning the personal tactics and tricks of other players would help everyone who frequented the blog to become better players.
4. Maple Story got its own blog, for Christ's sake.
5. For those of you who play the game, you'll agree a game like this deserves its own blog.
6. The activity of the blog would be relatively high, as it's my experience that the people here all seem to enjoy getting into long discussions about it.
7. On a note of conversational matter, the game is probably one of the more in-depth fighting games out there, and conversations about different tactics, uses for certain moves, combos, and so on, would be rather lengthy.
8. Due to how much the people who play it enjoy the game, conversations would be on topic and very serious. It wouldn't become another DA.
9. Like 4, there have been many other blogs about more vague, obscure, or less cared-about topics created in the past, and they're still kept. My friends have been playing this game for over a year and we're still just as interested in it, if not more, as when we started.
10. On a personal note, it would reduce the amount of actual subjects that go off topic in DA (lol paradox) with relation to it.
Proposed Moderators: Klarth, Vampiro, Myself, and/or Stalolin. I would say Darksong X, but he never moderates as it is, and Ant already has main boards to moderate. I can already assure you we'd be very diligent with keeping the subject matter serious and on-topic. Seriously guys, give it a chance. You've given crappier things a chance.

Yes! I second this cause!
An entire Blog given to us ranting about the greatness of Anji, Bridget, Faust, Slayer, and Zappa. :D
But seriously, it'd be awesome. Learning off of other players would help me not get my *** kicked online so much.
Please, please let this blog be!
Actually, we'd be discussing how badass Venom, Testament, Jam, Axl, Robo-Ky, and Eddie are.
So long as it's kept on topic. The MapleStory blog didn't even do that for too long.
Sure, go for it.
I proposed this in the Mod Board awhile ago.
They crushed it. =(
Which is why I'm all for this one.
er, The Judge, wern't you once a mod!! You should know how to get a blog!! *cough* Mod poll. *cough*
er then again, you might have to have this thread to get some support so the mods vote yes...if this is such a bad idea that odds are they would vote no if this thread didn't exist!!! :D:D
I support this, as I am trying to get my uncle to put Guilty Gear X2 #Reload on my XBox harddrive as soon as possible.
Me and Lolin came up with the idea.
So I'm all for it.
GTA blog?
*** yes. This game should get the respect it deserves. Though, just because your proposed it, Judge, I don't see it happening.
These are the reasons I foresee:
"lol the Judge?"
"Won't neva stay on topic"
"No one likes Guilty Gear"
"wtf is guilty gear?"
Actually, the poll in the mod board won. Jesse didn't give it the go-ahead because he's a cock.
I want.
hi ya
You could just post in the Fighting Games board...
And half of those blogs could exist in other main boards. That's not the point.
T-kid: not the best place to introduce yourself. Make a post in the introduction board and try again.
your stupid..derrrrrrr
Point proven, thanks.
Yes, but there isn't one thread relating to Guilty Gear in the Fighting Board. You need something to show that it's actually popular with many of the people on the site, not just a core group of veteran members.
Blogs appeal to specific groups of people, so it doesn't matter if everyone likes it, because it's well known that the people on this site who do play it greatly enjoy it. There's far too much to speak about to contain it in one thread and expect it to stay on topic. Really, did you even consider the points I made?
I smell post changing. Yeah, there's really no reason not to have this, but the fact that THIS gets a blog and other games DONT makes it a little unfair. So really, the question becomes "why is Guilty Gear better than all of the other games?"
The other result is that we get a huge influx of blogs. :)
I'm all for it! Life isn't fair so let's make it a bit more unfair.
Fine, fine, we should get the blog...
Sure, when you learn how to properly ask for a blog. :cool:
Being as I don't have access to the mod board, wanted to make the proposal, and no mods were present to do it for me, this is the best I could do.
BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO TAKE IT UPON YOURSELF TO MOVE THIS THREAD TO THE MOD BOARD, THEN BY ALL MEANS.
...that's not how you do it.
You're supposed to ask through private messaging. :(
Well slap me silly. I've never formally asked for one before anyways.
Consider this to be a public version of a private message to you, my lovely Iris. Please grant my wish and make me a blog.
Try PM'ing a super mod. I don't think Iris can make blogs...
Neither can super-mods, but oh well. Good enough.
I have faith in her.
The process is to PM Jesse or a S-Mod/Mod and they make a poll in the board. When Jesse feels as if there are enough votes to say, "Yes." he'll make it.
*copies and pastes post*
i am getting in on this mod action, rite?
You, Me, Vampiro, and Klarth
Awesome, now I need to go get some kind of camera and tape me beating **** up with Millia.
You don't need to prove yourself o_O
Yes he does. I don't think he's ever even played the game before. Prove you have, and you got the spot, *****.
Oh, and to GM: Look at the blogs, if this doesn't deserve it, none of them do.

You can't really see much with this video seeing as how the program I'm using has a hard time with Guilty Gear. I'll tinker with it tomorrow and try it though.
Oh shi, you actually did it? I'll have to watch it later. Badass.
[quote=Vampiro]Oh shi, you actually did it? I'll have to watch it later. Badass.
Yeah, but at this point the video is crappy quality. You'll watch like five seconds and be like "wtf lolin? more frames per second plz."
[quote=Klarth]ACTUALLY, I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THIS. LINKMAN SAYS I SHOULD STOP LISTENING TO DEATH METAL AND FORCING PEOPLE TO MOD ME TO THEIR BLOGS.
