  • FAQ Explanation From a Magician

    Posted on May 20th, 2009 Spardot 36 comments

    Since Kirtaner fails with basic communication skills unless they’re binary, in 1337, or have something to do with genitalia, I’ve finally gotten my own little account so that I can make proper blog posts with that little bit of detail you oh-so-crave.

    Okay so let’s get on with it.  We’re going to be designing our own wiki style encyclopedia under the name “Taimapedia”.  This is for 420chan only. It’s kind of thrown together right now because Kirt has been very busy with the store and his own job IRL but expect there to be more and more changes in the coming weeks.

    Taimapedia is a huge project. We’re still trying to see how we can design it so that it is multifunctional, can be updated by you guys and have the ability to add whatever the fuck we want. It’s an entire separate entity.

    The links in general will be moved to Taimapedia and the link that’s currently there will be relabeled. The boards will either be moved elsewhere or they will have their own drop down menu. Each board will have a wiki on it, a FAQ on the subject matter if necessary, and an archives section.

    It’ll be really cool, I promise. For now, you guys can take it upon yourselves to write up whatever you think would be appropriate for whichever board you want and then save it in some kind of file and get it to us via IRC or something.

    This will all be written by you guys. Which is how it should be especially for some of you, you know your favorite board(s) better than we do.

    I hope this clears up a lot of questions, I’ll be monitoring this particular blog post though and will be more than happy to answer any questions you guys might have.

    1. It sure is weeaboo, but this is an imageboard after all.

      I am certain this wiki becomes fucking awesome. I love wikis.

    2. Cool. :3

    3. Hi internet, (from McDonald’s)

      I can’t go on the main site cause there are little kids behind me and I’m not really evil inside.

    4. Who came up with the name?

    5. Looking forward to contributing for the /m/ article heh

    6. Pollen: shortcat in our irc came up with “taima” for taimaba, our imageboard software name. We’re writing our own.

      It translates to “pot” in japanese and Kirt liked it so much that we umbrella everything under taima enterprises. So now it’s just a matter of what new things we’re adding that we can add “taima” to.

      It sounds a lot … nicer, than 420chan and the name won’t potentially ever get us into any shit.

    7. Groovy.

    8. “Since Kirtaner fails with basic communication skills unless they’re binary, in 1337, or have something to do with genitalia”
      What language is your heart in?
      And why did you change your name?
      I get the godot thing but…why?

    9. Holy shit, huge /wooo/ section incoming

    10. I’m totally doing one on /vg/. And I’m glad to hear about all of the changes, they sound awesome.
      Keep up the good work.

    11. dongs

    12. When did kirt get a jerb?

    13. FFFFFFFFFFFantastic

      is there anybody out there?

    14. Great job guys. Also, really like the taima name.

    15. Explodingsockpuppet

      An archive? /f/ will be dead forever now ;_;

    16. I AM PLEASED WITH THESE REVELATIONS

    17. Will it be strict suprsrs wikipedia pages? Half-joke half-informative ED without the drama and LOLNIGGERS? Would a page about Mewtwo being the most badass pokemon under /po/ be allowed? I AM EXCITED ABOUT YOUR FINE PRODUCT PLEASE TELL ME MORE!

    18. I’m thinking that 420chan posts can be linked to pages within Taimapedia, like if you mention synergy, you can make the word synergy link to a Taimapedia page about synergy. Saving us a lot of trouble for newfags, or retards in general.

    19. Where’d you get the name taima from? Do you even read these comments?

    20. Oh God this wont turn into an ED clone will it?

    21. This will be the greatest ED clone

    22. Sounds delicious. >:D

    23. Sweet

    24. This sounds lame, fucking losers

      LOL I JOKE

      Loving everything except the name, didn’t know kirtypoos was a weeaboo

    25. hey guyz wher can i buy jenkem ???

    26. TAIMA SOUNDS PRETTY AWESOME

    27. what was wrong with the freezer?

    28. 1. This sounds like a good idea
      2. I would gladly assist in creating articles for it
      3. UNGLINE ME!
      4. Taima sounds sweet

    29. Sounds like a nice idea. . . . don’t have much else to say. . . everyone else was posting so i felt like i should as well. . . that is all.

    30. Wait, does that mean you’re changing the name to Taimachan instead of 420chan too?

    31. >Wait, does that mean you’re changing the name to Taimachan instead of 420chan too?
      Actually it would be “Taimaba Channel”.
      No matter what, as long as the URL is 420chan, you can still call the site 420chan. If you haven’t noticed, 4chan is also called “Yotsuba Channel”. These names are based off 2chan, which is “Futaba Channel”.
      I made a thread on /420/ a year or two ago about giving 420chan a name like this. We came up with Mahouba (魔法葉) Channel meaning Magic Leaf Channel, but it never became offical. Too bad that didn’t become that name, but oh well, no big deal.

    32. ur website is broken

    33. This is a pretty cool place I guess..

    34. Make sure you add this to the website:
      http://img.420chan.org/gore/res/33535.html
      Shit is awesome. The girl ate her friend’s testicles, if you haven’t seen already.

    35. Sweet blog. I never know what I am going to come across next. I think you should do more posting as you have some pretty intelligent stuff to say.

      I’ll be watching you . :)

    36. Thanks for the useful info. It’s so interesting
