meta threads by tohno - 31st Dec 2012
Please keep meta threads on /fb/, but also try to avoid making meta threads centered around community and content, as these are things that we really can't do much about. If it's in regards to something related to the technical workings of the site, that's something we can actually do something about(once we get some tech support anyway) thanks.

Tips
Spoiler tags are done in the same way as back on 4chan:
Spoiler: [spoiler]text[/spoiler]
Italic: [i]text[/i]
Bold: [b]text[/b]
Strike-through: [s]text[/s]
Underline: [u]text[/u]
ASCII art: [aa]text[/aa]
A few possibly useful tips:
To post an embedded video, paste only the code at the end of the url into the Media ID field.
Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgF99qTtHpE&feature=related
Embedded video posts can not be combined with pics or .mp3s. If you try to post those with an embedded video, only the video will show up.
Youtube deletes videos all the time, primarily that of anime previews (copyrights bs) so it's not really recommended that you make threads using these ( only a recomendacion, not a rule or anything like that. ) and no, images and embedded videos can not be edited after posting, at this time.
Most site errors can be easily fixed by hitting the back button, refreshing the page.

Credits
I'd like to extend a special thanks to a few guys that really helped out around here.
To Popo for giving me the push I needed to brake away from the old site, and who helped in finding our current host, and with setting things up.
To Hamish who's helping a lot in the development of our site, and who is responsible for our recent posts table on the front page and our url posting system.
To Ayu-Ayu for proofreading this mess.
To our mods who do an awesome job of keeping this place nice and clean.
And to everyone else who has stuck with us for whatever reason all this time. You are what keeps the site going, because after all, without all the users, this site would be nothing.
Donate
If you would like to make a contribution to the site to help with the server costs (which is $224.80 every two years) you can click the button below.
As of 10/3/2012, the hosting costs of the site are paid up for the next two years.
As for the next bill, we're currently at $61.36 of the $224.80 goal (but hey, two years is a long time, so don't worry about it)
The paypal address for Donations is Tohno@tohno-chan.com, you can send donations to that address directly as "personal"/"money owed" to avoid having the jews at paypal take out their fee.
For bitcoin users:

Any and all things touhou related go here. That means stuff more appropriate for others boards, though every now and then is alright.
