Notice Dubtopia Newsletter (9-21-14)

Hey everyone. I'd like to start out by saying a weekly/biweekly newsletter is something I've been wanting to make for awhile now. It will recap any important info previously posted on the site and will also feature some new material on occasion including important announcements, updates, events and other relevant info about the site.

Alright, so first let's start out with our move back to the name JustDubs.

Although we are using the name JustDubs again, the official URL will be http://justdubsonline.net
We are not giving a specific opening date as of yet but it will be sometime within the first two weeks of October.
If you would like to read more about the reasoning behind our switch please follow this link. There is also a helpful Q&A at the end which may answer any question you're having: http://www.dubtopia.eu/forum/threads/justdubs-online-and-our-plans-for-october.4972/

Anime Pages

Our work is almost done! We're making major progress with the anime page themes. Every letter except B-G is complete. Everything besides those 6 letters is good to start watching. These last 6 letters will be finished before October 1st. At that point we will start working on uploading fixes for any broken series which will take roughly one more month. And then we will start adding any new releases we're missing!

Thanks for your patience while we get our site back in working order. Please follow this thread for any future updates: http://www.dubtopia.eu/forum/threads/anime-page-themes-update.5000/

Social Media Helpers

I decided instead of bringing on a completely new person I would extend the staff requirements for media moderators to include social media aspects as well. So @Miss Elegent Serenity will be helping with Facebook and Twitter posts and @BK-201 will be helping with our Youtube channel and Wiki page. They will start their additional duties in a week from now!

If you plan on making or have made any Halloween or similar themed AMVs please send them to me via PM! All submissions will be featured during the month of October. Submissions will end Wednesday October 1st. http://www.dubtopia.eu/forum/threads/we-want-your-halloween-amvs.5003/

Some Club Changes

In case you haven't heard, we've had a few club changes. Some inactive clubs were processed and a few more will be up on the chopping block soon. This is in an effort to better organize the clubs. Some are inactive and their discussion threads would be better off in another section of the forum. Read more for additional details. http://www.dubtopia.eu/forum/threads/inactive-club-update.5030/

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Creative Design Section Changes

With the recent club changes we were left with some creative expression clubs which had no accurate place to go other than Off Topic. So we have decided to expand the Creative Design section to incorporate all forms of creative expression and design. Included in the section will be things you have personally created and wish to share including art, music, writing and of course graphic design.

Scheduled Maintenance

The forum will have a scheduled update and maintenance on Monday, September 22nd. During maintenance, members may experience errors or be unable to access certain areas of the forum. Thank you for your understanding!

Donations

This site still runs on donations. Part of us switching back to our original name is so that we can attempt to boost traffic through a familiar brand. Until traffic picks up and adsense starts paying out we run completely off of donations. If you enjoy this site and wish to contribute follow the link to donate!

Hey its me Whoo!! lol just had to.

Even if you just donate 1.00 every little bit helps. Hopefully next month ill be able to put in a small donation myself. I love this community and everyone in it and will do all I can to help out in any way possible

 

Ummm 'www' can still be typed but its typically exuded now a days for simplicity. Come on now lol you should know this stuff.

Also, if you're able to do that now you're able to do that when we change domain names. Nothing is changing.

 

I think that was discussed in another thread. I believe that was for a forum thread that was being shared in the notice area missing the www part. Honestly this is the first forum I've ever seen that happen with. Either way, that won't matter if you type http://justdubsonline.net or http://www.justdubsonline.net or just justdubsonline.net. You would be navigating to the forum at that point from the homepage and the forum's link in the navibar will always be the same.
