Hey guys.

Let's make Oshi what it is all about again. The sole reason we're inactive is because we're inactive. If you don't post, others are less likely to post. If you don't reply, others are less likely to make art or a replay next time, because they think they won't get feedback anyway.

I have some ideas. Ideas that will hopefully turn this org into a place where you can post a replay to get feedback on it, where you can look at some art and help others improve at it. If you're bored, where you can casually talk to other people.

First of all, don't be afraid to post in the replay/art thread. Whether you post a replay/art or comment on it, just do it if you feel like it. Comment on stuff, even if you don't think you have the necessary experience/talent. Your opinion isn't retarded. As long as you say what you did/didn't like, you're helping. And if you have made something and want to get better at it, practice is a must. But it also helps a lot to get comments on your stuff. Knowing what people like and what they don't helps you make better things the next time.

Second, IRC activity. I think it's pretty stupid that I am the one to bring this up, since my IRC client has been broken for about a year, but I'll fix it today and lurk in the channel again. If you don't have an IRC client and don't want to get one, you can always use the qwebIRC one: http://forum.toribash.com/chat_view.php?channel=oshi
It's not the best, but it works. IRC isn't obligatory, but it's fun. You are not obliged to get on IRC. But if you haven't tried it, just go on it to see how it is. If the channel is somewhat active, it's a good way to casually chat, get quick CnC and also to get to know each other.

Last, events. It has been brought up. I am ashamed to say that I lack all required funds. I don't have any spare items, I believe, I have 0 tc. The reason is that I gave some away, hosted some small events, stuff like that, like a year ago. But I think it's a fun way to involve the rest of the community with Oshi. If some of you have some stuff lying around you don't need and you like to contribute, I suggest we try to sell it for TC or have it as a price for an event. This is just a humble suggestion, though, since I think I am not in any position to ask you to donate stuff, since I am probably the poorest guy in the org.


tl;dr: Post more, even if you think your post will be retarded. (Don't shitpost though)
We need to fix the IRC channel and get active there.
Events, they are awesome.

Also, general suggestions thread.
