Test Thread - Threaded View

See: http://www.stoptazmo.com/showthread.php?t=25648

Testing this out so we can see how viable it is for chapter discussion. Please switch to threaded view, and reply to different posts. :3

P.S. Posts that are just complaints will be the ones I test out how deletion works on, capiche? Why don't we talk about pleasant things instead, or something.

I think Kishimoto has a weird obsession with half-animal characters. The weather here has been cold lately, and I bought new shoes today. I now own five pairs of black shoes. Blue is my favourite colour, and I like words with the "extra" u in them.

I have switched and threaded mode. Lets sample it out a tad.

Why do you think Kishi likes half-animal characters? I mean, people in Konoha tend to have affinities to animals, but I haven't seen much of it outside (aside from Kisame and Zabuza...so we could generalize to the 7 swordsmen).

Edit: Whoa, only 1 post at a time...

Well, there's Suigetsu too, and Zetsu - although he's a plant.

Weren't there cat girls or something, too...? I haven't actually read that chapter, but I saw people posting about it...Dante is looking it up now, so I guess I'll edit this when I find out.

I just find it strange that those characters aren't often the subject of other characters' confusion...would seem to indicate they're not uncommon.

Edit - You're right, one post at a time...wow. Seems like some of the buttons are broken, too, I guess I'll mention that to Kane when the time's right.

Edit 2 - Yeah, ninja cats!

Cat girls...maybe the people at the Uchiha stockhouse/hideout?

I'm not sure commonness is a real factor in this manga considering ninja's aren't really looked upon weirdly for going to extreme lengths or having strange affinities that allow them to have power. I mean, how many 'common' people do we know in this manga? There's Ino, Chouji, Lee, and Sakura as the plainest, with Naruto being almost normal if it were not for that fox sealed in him.

Edit: I'm going to sleep now...had 2 days of extreme business and am beat. I wanted to give my personal opinion of the threaded view a little later, but since I'm going off for a while, I'll just give it now: I think its a good tool only to view or go through developed/old threads. If, however, you plan to post or want to read the thread continuously, this mode is a hassle. Also, I've gotten too used to the normal view and use it as my default. I think it would be a little bit of a hassle if every time I wanted to go between a thread in this subforum and other threads on ST to have to change the mode all the time.

Edit 2: Hybrid mode seems to be nice. Its basically the normal view with the template/outline at the front too.

Testing yarrrr...

**kaom** · 09-29-2007, 09:47 PM

Yeah, those are the ones.

And I guess it strikes me as odd because appearances weren't taken in stride as much at the beginning. Naruto did comment on Zabuza's lack of eyebrows.

Other "normal" people...Shikamaru, TenTen, Temari...I think there's a fair amount, it's just that the unusual ones stand out more. People specialize, but not all of that involves their body...and well, Kisame isn't specialized, he's a fish.

Hmm. Scrolling through individual posts is actually pretty fast.

**kaom** · 09-29-2007, 09:49 PM

I think that really suits him. International Talk Like a Pirate day was this month, you know?

I got it announced at school once. I was very proud.

- No reply buttons, just quick reply...unread posts are bolded, nice.

Edit - No wait, maybe just the current post is bolded...

**Tetnubis** · 09-29-2007, 11:15 PM

This is weird...

I like how when I type here, then change to see the different posts, the text does not disappear. but what happens when a thread get over, like, 100 posts? And your trying to find one post you have already read? OMG dilemma! Lol.
