Post by: Oubeji on July 18, 2004, 08:19:25 pm: I would like to meet you, but do you already know about the meeting that's happening in the July 23rd (for cosplayers) and 25th (official meet up among kumorikon members)? You can join us if the date is okay with you. But if your willing to just see on some other date, that will be fine too.

What are your interests/fav manga/anime?
As for myself, I like to draw (still amateur) and mostly reading manga is my hobby. I'm more into shonen manga, and I watch some Anime but not alot.

Post by: Takmai on July 19, 2004, 09:43:44 pm: Did I hear something about cosplaying? >:D I'm cosplaying as a DDR character, and Sora from Kingdom Hearts.

Anyway, I have my own webcomic, E.A.T. Which currently isn't on the net. Stupid Keenspace CAN'T HAVE MY ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER!

I like Yami no Matsuei, which I can't stop telling people.

And everyone should come to SaruCon. Yessss...
Title: People who are going
Post by: Xella on July 19, 2004, 10:02:21 pm: ^^; If you're worried about Keenspace giving out that information, don't worry about it.

I've been on Keenspace with Bowspirit's Aim (http://bowspirits.keenspace.com/) since November of 2001—so going on three years now, and six months later with Flow of Destiny (http://flowofdestiny.keenspace.com/) (and XDM, but I don't remember when I got that account and its dead anyway). In that time, I've never had any sort of problem with them giving out any information of mine. I gave them an email address that I didn't give anyone else, and it still gets NO mail whatever. I can't say that I don't ever get hardcopy spam (ie junk mail, in the mail) or telemarketers because of them, because I don't exactly have a seperate address or phone number I can give them, but I highly doubt that the really dumb realitor in the area with the handlebar mustache got my address from Keenspace ^^; Plus the people who run it are really nice, and I personally can't see any of them doing bad things with your info oO;

They do, on the other hand, have some banner ads that can't make up their mind what size they are, so my layout on BA is all messed up right now >_>;

Anyway, if you're still worried about it, you can always go to a non-automatic hoster. It means you have to update the pages manually (which I know from Shadows (http://www.dysdaera.net/shadows/) is a bit of a pain), but you're not required, generally speaking, to give anyone any more vital information than your email address or a way to contact you. You could use Tripod, Geocities, or any of those annoying free-hosters, or you could look for independent domains that offer hosting. Before I got any domains, I was hosted on Windschaser.com by the friend of mine who owned it, and I know a lot of people are willing to host creative sites, like a webcomic would supposedly be.

If you can't find anything, email or message me or something, and I could probably set you up on M1 (http://www.muichimotsu.org/), as I'm already hosting at least one other comic (http://www.muichimotsu.org/bineko/) there ^^ My host (ActiveWebHosting, I don't necessarily recommend them if you're looking into getting your own domain >_>;) has the usual rules about pr0n and copyrighted material and suchlike (and they are SO retentive about movie files ><;), but I can't see anyone from KumoriCon with that sort of stuff ^^ Well, 'cept the movie files bit. Not a good place for an animator's portfolio =D;;

Post by: Takmai on July 19, 2004, 10:26:30 pm: Wow. That was incredibly informative. XD Thank you lots and lots. You were reaaaaaaly helpful!

Title: People who are going
Post by: Takmai on July 20, 2004, 08:50:51 pm: SaruCon is the name of the "minicon" on Friday the 23rd. Its at Washington Square Mall, if I'm not mistaken.

Post by: Dustin on August 13, 2004, 10:40:44 pm: It will, aswell, by my first anime convention. I will be attending with my 15 year old cousin. He got into anime watching Yu Gi Oh, then I had him watch Naruto, One Piece, and Full Metal Alchemist with me, now he likes subtitled anime too. He will be spending some time with me the rest of this month, so I plan to introduce Prince of Tennis to him, we're planning to have a great time.

I hope they have like, chairs and stuff to sit on. Being a big guy, I need to rest every now and then. :(
