I think maybe those don't allow members to embed their own streams. I seem to remember looking at a Soundcloud plugin once upon a time... Yeah, I just installed the 1917 one on mine to test it and it put one giant player at the top of the forum underneath the colored header. Wth?

It was just a giant empty mp3+ player at the top of the forum. There was no markup for posters to embed the clips in posts. I guess I should've read the Support article. Your job's the worst, and the pay's an outrage.

I am not going to personally post in this topic nor will I continue to argue with the Admin. I am a very respectful, polite poster and I feel this topic is hurting that reputation I've built as such. However, I encourage anyone else who wishes for a dedicated animation board to voice their support here. I apologize if I came off too harsh and demanding in this topic, not my intentions. Hopefully numbers will win in the end and I thank those who have voiced support already. 🥰

I dunno. I could go for an Anime board.
I've got some things I could incessantly talk about there.
Animation is a great artform to me at least. I also agree it should have a platform here no matter how humble. There's a lot to discuss about it, at least as much as mainstream films. Even if it's not your thing, it's an important medium to a lot of people. I mean, why not?

Are you saying there are topics you could post a ton about, but you haven't been because there's no hyper-specified board for it?  This is why he had to shut down a whole crap ton of boards; too many overly specific boards, not enough activity. Why don't you post anime threads on General Discussion? I start song threads there and they get pages of replies and tons of views, same with my other threads about anything from whether or not you've fired a gun to what commonly flubbed up word versions amuse you. There's a whole forum of people waiting to post. Start a thread and give everyone something to talk about.

The recent consolidation got rid of all animation boards. I'd like to advocate an exclusive animation board. The old ones were buried, hence why they weren't successful. Film general and tv general aren't substitutes, animation topics don't survive long on those boards. Keep animation discussion alive and showcase animation respect by having a dedicated animation board. id post on an animation board actually.

I know I had previously stated I would let this topic die but I thought it would be prudent to attempt a revival anyway. If any of you out there whom have animation respect stand with my cause and request, please let it be known in this topic!
Also of note, there's a Radio board...you can't convince me more people care about Radio than Animation!

I'll stand with you. I hope I'm not the only one.
Egon 1982, I hope you're floating around the boards right now.

I have so many thing's to talk about animation wise and don't want to waste them for the Film General crowd.

I remember how dead the animation board was. It was super dead. To be honest, Film General is not as busy as some of you think. In the last 24 hours, 27 threads have been discussed on FG. That's not even the entire first page of threads. In more than a full day. There are probably, at most, 50 people posting there semi-regularly. That number is likely a lot smaller. I don't want to discourage an animation board, but I also think we need to be realistic. This site is hardly booming with film discussion as is.

Yes, unfortunately I believe the format of message boards as a place of discussion is dying as a whole. Even so, I have a lot of history discussing animation on the old IMDB boards and I felt the one here was starting to pick up business shortly before it was axed. I know traffic as a whole is down but I still believe a few of us could carry an Animation boards quite well.
