Member Interview Thread Idea

Post by Kamiccolo9 » Thu Jul 04, 2013 12:00 am

So, I was on the forums over at theforce.net, a Star Wars website, and I saw this topic:http://boards.theforce.net/threads/lite ... .50012784/.
I thought it looked like a pretty cool idea, and since imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I was wondering if anyone would like to be involved with something similar on this site.

Whoa this looks like such a fantastic idea. Was this ever implemented on here (my guess would be a resounding no :P ) because it definitely should be!

I mean, whether Jesus is real or not, he - he's had a bigger impact on the world than any of us have. And the same can be said for Bugs Bunny and - and Superman and Harry Potter. They've changed my life - changed the way I act on the earth. Doesn't that make them kind of real? They might be imaginary but, but they're more important than most of us here. And they're all gonna be around here long after we're dead. So, in a way, those things are more realer than any of us.

Sure, this seems like something that'd be pretty fun. I'm game if this gets going, and it'd be fun to read other people's stuff too.

Well, I only ever got one reply to the idea, and it never really kicked off. I'd definitely still be interested in doing it.

Unfortunately, I'll be really busy with school and such until the end of the month at the earliest (midterms :sick: ), so I won't have time to conduct these interviews until then. If someone else would like to take charge of this, I'm fully okay with them doing so, or we can wait until I have more free time. It's good to finally be getting some feedback, though :)

...Oh wow, I didn't even notice that the original post of this was from last year. I just saw the post above mine was from this year, and assumed it was a newly created thread. My bad. :mrgreen: ;

But yeah, if this were to take off, I'd find such a thing fairly interesting to read and participate in.

Ah, thought I'd replied to this already. Whoops... I am up for it as well!
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

So like how would it work? Would it work like something like this?
The Site Editors will interview staff and members then the interview will be posted in this section.
One per week.

Repeat interviews may be conducted after a while.

How do you get interviewed?

It's random.
Asking to be interviewed will put you to the bottom of the list.
OR
Anyone may ask to be interviewed and anyone who does, will eventually get the chance. However I will say that those who are more well known on the forum will probably be getting first dibs regardless of if you ask first or not.
Maybe perhaps someone can be asked to be interviewed by a certain member?

Whenever I get time to do it, it'll be random. I'll PM whoever ends up going first, and if the time works for them, I'll announce it in this thread.

It can be fun if the site staff allows it.

I just read my interview on Dbzf.UK. made me think of this forum. Is this still going on? Perhaps a template is needed? Shall a mod be the interviewer? Just curious but is this allowed on this website. Reading Dbzf.UK interviews and seeing how interesting they're I'm sure lots of users here can make very unique interviews.

I think this is a great idea. I would love to see it happen! :thumbup:

I'd be up for it if you're still doing it.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

Sorry guys, I'm way, way busier than I thought I'd be when I made this thread a while ago. Between working and school, I just don't have time to devote to something like this. If anyone else would like to take charge of the idea, then, by all means, go for it :P

New update. Some stuff came up that got rid of the other stuff that came up that kept me from working on this stuff. So it's on! I'll be starting up a new thread containing the guidelines for how I'll be conducting the interviews, and hopefully I can get this started tonight.
