paradoxal

Some issues i noticed that may or may not be resolvable:
 
1) it used to be the case that we can scroll down to the page to see which users are browsing it, but this is no longer possible.
 
2) previously we could choose to show or hide the line that says "Edited Today by x" at the end of the post, but it seems to show by default now and there's no way to toggle it off.
 
3) at the search results page, scrolling to the following/previous page of results is now taken to be a new search and triggers the 15-second search freeze.

@nostalgia
 
thanks for the prompt clarification! and i really appreciate your hard work in making sure everything runs smoothly <3

Thanks for the input, @hiroki.
1. This feature doesn't seem to come with IPS4 by default. Currently, the staff team is deciding which plugins could be added to the forum. Showing who is reading is an interesting feature to implement IMO too.
2. We staff would like to preserve such editing privileges to only the staff members in order to prevent abuse in some manner.
3. I've removed the flood control when searching from most groups except for the Guest and Member (20 and 10 sec respectively) and some restricted groups. Searching consumes a lot of the server's resources, so certain groups are allowed to search freely.

Perhaps this might be a thread better suited to the Jrock fans that have been around for a while, but I figured this could be a bit fun...
 
Back when I was first getting in to Japanese music (i.e. downloading), high quality album art scans weren't the most plentiful things in the world. Often the cover art I would have would be 200px x 200px, if not smaller...or maybe even just a crop from a poorly taken digital photo. Thinks have come a long way from then, and now it's far less a problem. But I have had the fun experience of now getting to look at new covers in new light lol. I figured it would be fun to share the albums that we were confused by that we finally understood upon seeing a higher res scan (or heaven forbid having actually seen the cover in person).
 
I'll start it off.
 
Dir en Grey - Vulgar

 
 
I always thought that these were arms - which I don't think I'm wrong on. But I though they were more human and attached to shoulders. Now I feel like what I used to think was some sort of shoulder pad is actually the arm being cut off?
 
 
girugamesh - 13's reborn

 
Well then....I never noticed that baby in there...
 
 
Rentrer en Soi - Amongst Foolish Enemies

I was never able to make out what this cover was suppose to be of. At least now I can tell it's a person. Still a fucking awful  cover though
 

I've decided it's time to reveal myself. Sorry I'm not actually Skeletor.

joke's on you, i dont even HAVE a toilet, i shit in empty cd cases and sell them as Elektel-shiki cds

When I have more free time, I do plan on creating a brand new Youtube channel that isn't connected to my main Google account in any way, and then I will upload there every single fucking Lycaon PV and comment track I can get my hands on. And if they take those down? I'm going to start a new channel and upload everything again. Just to fuck with Izumi and Shimizuya Records. 

I never bring my phone to toilet, when I bring my phone to toilet, I dropped that damn thing on the toilet and got shit all over it :/

pls do this lol

They weren't a real street team, they just called themselves that. I mentioned this before, but I had no problem with their YT channel being taken down, since all they did was repost stuff that was readily available elsewhere (on the label's official channel; other fan's YT channels; etc.; and the reposts were shit quality) and wound up getting 2x more views. They had nothing to offer that wasn't available somewhere else on YouTube.
 
On the other hand, getting videos taken down that weren't  already available elsewhere (i.e. your and kyo's Lycaon PVs) pisses me off! Especially the DAHLIA PV.

All I came to say is that
this is bullshit really makes Izumi look like a slave driver The rumors about them disbanding to get away from the label may not be rumors after all. Hectic release schedules be damned, benefiting off the free promotion while they were active but scrambling to save your bottom line when all the cash cows leave one after the other is the scummiest business move of 2016. It'll be even worse if the record label doesn't monetize the PVs. If they did at least it would make sense, but it would make more sense to do it while the band is active and new people will more easily find them.
 
Is Izumi this decade's Kiwamu?

Did you guys know, that Shimizuya Records started removing unofficial Lycaon videos from Youtube just last week?
 
That was the last straw for me. They got tons of my and @kyoselflove's videos removed. FUCKING HALF A YEAR AFTER THEY DISBANDED.
 
Fuck you, Shimizuya Records.

Just felt like this needed to be made, since those sons of bitches now when lycaon is gone want to copyright there songs on YT, piece of shit! also for Re:dis im pretty sure they fucked them up too.

Thank you for replying and for the hard work you guys are doing to improve and build new MH. Damn codes xD

^ I've fixed that issue just now. No more paragraphs.
