Namco Tales Series Forums
The Namco Tales Series Forums are dead from some time from what I know, so it's only fitting to remove that link.—Kaimi (999,999 CP/5 TP) ∙ 21:10, July 22, 2014 (UTC)


 * I was waiting, holding out with great hope for Namdai to realize that they accidentally the entire Tales forums. Namdai had always treated the English community as if it does not exist, not just by ignoring the idea of localizing games until Vesperia/DotNW got them back into the habit, but by abandoning the forums and letting us work things out on our own ever since Peter Garza left as the localization director of Namco Hometek after Radiant Mythology. To think that they once even thanked us in the credits of Tales of the Abyss. You're right though, it's probably gone forever since it's been almost a year by now that the server was taken offline, along with 3 or 4 of the official English websites for different localized games. Even Tales Brigade is gone, and the rather informative TalesRPG site was replaced with a generic advertisement for Xillia while deleting all of the pages of interest. All that we have left are fan sites like Abyssal Chronicles and the reserve forums, which isn't exactly public about itself.

Ideas for new home page?
It's bland and outdated. I think it needs a rework with new colors and maybe some images. I also think it needs to be better organized. Any ideas?

 * Yes it's bland, but none of us are adept as graphical artists so I don't think it will ever be changed without more substantial effort to make such changes. I already reformatted the page from what it was originally back in 2007, an ugly table of game names listed into columns full of word wrapping. The existing format is the best I could do. Surely there are many others who can do better, but whatevs, this was designed for the Monaco skin anyway. We all know what happened to that.


 * Also, take note that some of the above discussions that you edited are actually more confusing now. You combined some lines that were meant as quotations, and then you removed the formatting like italics which indicated that they were quotations. I also was going for parallelism when I put each of those sentences on a separate line. As much as possible, I like to avoid editing others' comments from past discussions as long as they are not something that need moderation (mostly just vandalism/spam). For my own past comments, I don't really care, but please take care of altering or combining others' statements in a way that was not originally intended. (Also, I'm rather amused since I did consider NariDan X to be a World game, which it is indeed, as far as Teichan was concerned back in the previous layout of that website with the fancy scrolling logos using gratuitous Flash objects.)

When I condensed it, I didn't even realize it was your comment. I'll fix it now and add your username to the end. As for the other comments, I only adjusted the headers so that each conversation is more distinguishable. Typically I don't condense comments or alter them in any way unless it's some form of Winxfan spam on my talk page or something. As for the home page, is there at least a way to adjust the color scheme? Also, I recall my adding some games to the lists, but I'm not sure if I added all of them - or if they're in the correct order, for that matter. Would you double check this, please?

 * Ahhhhh no, that particular comment wasn't mine. The part that was quoted was from my earlier post under the same header. As for colors, it has to be done manually by changing the hex codes on the page's source code itself.
