REFF Ramble!

This REFF Ramble is brought to you by: Audra "Kitsune" Furuichi
Hoi~! It's me, Audra (a.k.a Kitsune/Selphie), and I'll just spend this time
rambling a little on what I think I prolly know best, the message board and
the channel~! XD
As a REFF, I am not only someone who critiques your drawings, but also
someone who mediates the #artcorner channel on Espernet and the TAC message
board right here~! I've been a frequenter to both for the past 7 months
(roughly since they've both been opened. ^_^) Over those past months, the
channel and the message board have gone through a lot of changes, some
good, some bad, some unexpected~. ^^
The MessageBoard: Truthfully, I haven't been extremely active in the
messageboard as of late, and things have been rather slow there because a
lot of the members are moving over to the IRC channel where things move a
lot quicker. In the beginning, it was really active a lot of good
thought-provoking survey questions and community participation and the
environment was really great~! As things have slowed down, some others have
taken it up on themselves to keep the topics fresh and conversations going.
(Many kudos to you folks~!) From that messageboard, a lot of ideas of what
we can add to TAC have spawned. Although they are still in conceptual
stages, stuff like monthly contests, links to online FAQs and tutorials (as
well as some of our own~), etc.
The #artcorner IRC channel: Now, this I can talk about in length~! ^^;;;
I've been an active member of the chatroom and can say I'm rather addicted.
*laugh* From the very beginning, it's been a friendly, open place to meet
some other artists. The environment has ranged from serious and
philosphical to absolutely wacky. ^_^;;; The room has been a great place to
talk about just about anything with all sorts of personalities present.
Over the past few months, it has grown a lot in popularity. At those times,
the room gets extremely hectic and hard to keep up unless you're REALLY
paying attention. ^^; If you're curious, stop on by~! There's always
something to talk about. Just be sure to abide by common courtesty and
common sense (for the most part). o_-
Be sure to stop on by sometime and drop us a message hello on either the
channel or the message board~! ^___^ It's the best way to bridge the gap
and get to know us as well as some other fellow artists~! :D
