Rememberance Day ~Honour to the Fallen~

Post by onizuka-gto »

Dear Baka-Tsuki users, readers and staff,

We as a community has come far, and it is a proud moment for us to have survived to witness our first anniversary. (which i admit i forgot! gomen!)


however the community that we had today, would not of flourish if not for the dedication and help of the first Baka-Tsuki members.

These people who gave us the most valuable commodity in this digital age: Time.

Time to help translate,
Time to foster a community,
Time to encourage us that this was a hobby worth doing.

However as we have grown, many of our comrades have fallen in the call of duty.

Forever lost on patrol in the wilderness of the digital jungle,
Taken out by the digital bullets,
Sunken by the waves of real life...

While today in the real world marks something special and this internet community tribute can only be a shadow of real heroes who gave their lives, so that we can pursue our hobbies in peace and happiness.

I think those who have help build Baka-Tsuki today who are no longer with us, yet grace our pages with the mark of there contribution should also be honoured today.

You might think this is a pointless tribute....

Just because it is the internet,

Just because no "real" people,

Just because there is no "real" evidence of loss of life,

These things does not matter.

What can only be judge of these people is the contribution they have made to our community.

To the people... The readers, the translators, the editors, you and me.

They might be fine, they might have their reasons, but no matter what happened,

I hope those who no longer here, will know that we appreciate your pass contributions and that Baka-Tsuki will up hold the dedication to our hobby, and that those who share it, can in there own small way be apart of it.

ARIGATOU GOZAIMASTA! m(_ _)m

Yeah, I agree. A house-cleaning seems to be in order.

/salutes

If they ever come back, they will regret their decision to leave in the first place.
God!!
You need not forgive me.
For those I love,
The violence brought about by sinful men
Shall now be used once more.
If you were created to save this world,
If there is a single shred of hope left for the future of mankind,
I am very sorry, but, please begone!

Spring clean will begin in January.

The Red Purge will commence once I can find the old thread again. :)

As for the Fallen, I have started to collect some names or two, if you notice anyone else who has gone M.I.A please add here, and i will contact them.

I think the Translators group specifically needs to cleaned to be honest, far too many Translators, who are inactive or passed on.

On the other hand the Editorsa are fine, need a bit more adding to be honest.

I see what you mean by too many Translators. However, what bugs me are the people who put themselves down as editors in the wiki, but have never made a single edit! (Or at least so few that I can count them on one hand.) Can we do some "purging" there as well?

technically, you can remove them as you wish, if you check the project editor list on the forum, we only got three. :)

Everyone else are just temps. so if you think they aren't active anymore, there is nothing stopping you from taking them off.
