in Dragonball/Z/GT since I was about 11, and I'm 15 now.
When I first saw an episode of Dragonball Z on Cartoon Network
(the first episode to be exact) I thought it was the greatest
thing ever. I jumped up off my couch and ran straight to
my laptop sitting in the corner of my room. I got on the
net as quickly as possible with a 56k modem and began searching
for Dragonball/Z/GT sites, hoping that I could learn more
and more about this wonderful anime.
What
I found was basically a bunch of trash. I saw a bunch of
sites with no potential at all. A bunch of crap that couldn't
make it big even if the opportunity bit them in the ass.
A bunch of sites with horrible layouts, hard to read, and
no originality. I searched the web for days looking for
something that even came close to the greatness of Dragonball,
yet only found a few. I will not name these sites for I
do not advertise sites in my editorials, just like the Real
World does not advertise any type of product or business
on their show. ^_^
The
point of this editorial? To trash Dragonball/Z/GT sites?
No. I'm just here to say I think all these people who have
no idea what they are doing, who have no experience whatsoever,
and basically can't make a site worth shit, shouldn't even
try. Your giving Dragonball/Z/GT a bad name. Sure people
will get on and say "Wow, 100,000,000 sites found for a
search on Dragonball!" but when they look at all these sites
they'll be thinking "Damn, Dragonball must be one sucky
anime to have crappy fans like this." Like I said before,
there are some great sites out there, and I commend you
guys for actually making something worth looking at..
I
guess all I'm trying ot say in this editorial is that people,
get a grip here. You all aren't going to be great Dragonball
webmasters, so give up now when you have the chance. Don't
humiliate yourself, and don't make someone else have to
write an editorial like this. Im sorry if I've offended
you in any way by saying any of this, but it's the truth.
If you find yourself with a site with just a bunch of jumbled
text, gifs, and pictures that aren't even thumbnailed, delete
the site right away and put a link on it to a good site...
