I'm not fond of custom stylesheets, but I've only ever seen them as insanely garish obnoxious LOLMONKEYCHEESE ones, so maybe an anime tractor would be good. :3:

How about instead of an anime tractor, make the background automatically pull a new image from This Waifu Does Not Exist every time you load the page.

Making acronyms is fun but frankly I really would rather not have a name that refers back to Anime Death Tentacle Rape Whorehouse. There’s some things you just kind of can’t whitewash by saying it stands for something different now!

The name should be Animated Nuisances In Media, Exciting! or some such. That way you nerds can talk about what the acronym stands for without having “but really it stands for something deplorable” in the back of everybody’s minds

You could just, y'know.... not bring it up or hint at it, and the problem solves itself.

If people keep bringing it up, of course it's unsavory. But it's been like a decade, let it finally rest.

Can avatars be flipped to look left instead of right?

It may create a situation where, in your case Namtab, the av looks left and the repeating custom title looks right. Can't mess with the custom title images because of gang tags.

Official name? Nah. But I knew about that back in 2003 when I had an ADTRW license plate at the GoonCon in Toronto.

Anime Done The Right Way was the "Not Anime Death Tentacle Rape Whorehouse" version of the name when Studio ADTRW was doing scanlations way way way back when.

There's been a half dozen or so, yeah.

The other ones I remember are like...

Aesthete Daimyo's Treasured Rare Wares
Anime Dabbler? Tantalizing Recommendations Within!
Animated Drawings To Replace Women
Anime Done The Right Way

I think there's been a couple of others along with the original, but I don't recall.

Or be listed by forumid which puts ADTRW (27) right behind SH/SC (22) as the second oldest forum. GBS used to be forumid 1 but it was changed for GBS 2.0 and blah blah blah I forget that era of the forums.

If you think about it, as a rational utilitarian maximizer, the positive net utility from the very slight amount of time minimized summed up across all users' clicks such a change might be the greatest good a single tiny change might have ever done to the forums.

What I am saying is let's turn towards Omelas.

this is my take. Although I wouldn't be opposed to changing the acronym, it won't have the pervasive recognition that it does now, unless the acronym is literally ANIME.

It doesn't really sound like people want to change the acronym, either.

i've no particular love for the ADTRW acronym/backronym, but any attempt to change it is gonna be pointless anyway when most people will continue to think of and refer to it as ADTRW anyway

what i have love for however is the anime tractor
