We all know his intelligence now.....
And what part of the post did you consider to be non-sarcastic. The reference to the Dr. Seuss book, or the fact that I believe this is a bad idea U_U
If I want to form a grammatically correct sentence, I am more than capable. If you want me to give you valid reasons, I will.

First, this is more work for the mods, adding a bleach section and monitoring it probably takes up work. Yet adding another section, that pretty much (at least the training/fighting/abilities section) will need to be completely thought up from scratch. This is hard to do. I am not a huge OP fan. But I know the bare minimum, and with all the weird things in the show, this would be extremely hard. However, try and convince me.

Second, while this would generate revenue for NB. I feel it would create a lot of tension between members. Especially the hardcore NB fans and the hardcore OP fans. I am not a hater of OP. I like it. But I feel that adding a OP addition will take away from the popularity of the Naruto section. I don't want that, plain and simple.

Third, I believe that would die out eventually. The Naruto RP is already cemented. With people already in it, and getting something like that set up is difficult. From what I've seen. The bleach RP is pretty much dead now. Why should they go through the time and effort for something that will most likely fail during the first year?

See, there are my points.

Who's idea was it to make a bleach section in the first place. Seems that one piece might have larger amount of members given the 3 year Span nB has had.

None of those are valid reasons, let me explain you why. First of all, there is already a Bleach Section. No mod contributes for it more than posting a link to an episode or a chapter (From external sources) and ban/infract some guys from flaming and spamming, being so that the first two are achieved by normal members as well, and the last two are normal task any Mod would is in charge of, it is no addition, in your words.

Second of all, what I am proposing is a separated Section for One Piece, being so that it stands equal to the Bleach on or substitutes it (So it doesn't "add" any work to the mods). I proposing this so that we can have a distinction between Anime, Manga and General One Piece. It is clear that one single section like we have currently is not enough for the increasing growth of One Piece followers, and many new members are being spoiled because there is no distinction in Theories from people who follow the Manga and people who follow the Anime, furthermore, I've seen members who only read the manga getting annoyed and members who only watch the Anime for stating things or coming up with theories that aren't new to them, but are new for their creators (The anime, as we all know, is significantly behind the Manga, obviously).

All of those problems would get rid of were they separated in different sections. I'll add even more. I have trouble finding a certain chapter discussion or even theory because there are tons of posts showing Amvs, images, Character polls, VS threads, etc. If those were all in a General One Piece Section, it would make navigation much easier.

Again, it is all due to the growth of popularity among members of the base and the proportions of One Piece itself, it does not compensate to have a similar distinction with unknown small series, of course. But One Piece is n where near small.

You don't want to add work to the mods? Mugiwara and Caliburn already post links to chapters and episodes (Again, external links, we are not asking for a scanlator), when those links are not posted by normal members (and most of them are). It doesn't "add" as you said.

Though I do agree with one thing, One Piece Rp is still an idea far away. It would require more effort and time, and yes, that would add work to the mods, but what I suggest isn't anything official. People could just Rp with no rules, making their own rules as they go along. This early in the game there is no need for a format or anything. That proto-Rp could be held inside the General Section, no need for a different one to be created.

Now, if your worries are that it would take away popularity from Naruto, then tough luck. If the domain name, the headline, most of the emoticons, most of the sections, most of the member's names and who knows more aren't enough to keep 1 lousy One Piece Section from being the most popular in the site, then Naruto doesn't deserve any protagonism.

I agree with your reasoning on the part of adding extra work. I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of what you do. In its entirety anyway. But I still have to disagree with the last part. I don't think it will do NB any good. But it's just my opinion.

Well, unjustified and unreasonable opinions don't matter much. If you intended otherwise, you failed. With that being said,

Recently, i´ve been seeing how there are alot more one piece threads and that it´s starting to increase, i suggest that the narutobase get to know about one piece, either do it normally or the one piece pirates will be the ones to do it!

I think that everyone should have 300x150 Avatars on the OPB. :|

And recently I noticed that the OP Section went downhill with a lot of retarded threads and retarded people.

I never even used the word website so that is clearly NOT what I mean. I mean a bigger section just like bleach has. We have a lot more activity here and more posts in chapter and episode discussions.

There are a lot of people who a members for a long time and don't know the existence of this sub section.

It deserves it's own spot on the front page
yh i agree i had no clue about this section until a day ago

I'm new to the forums so It's not really my place to judge if it would help the website as a whole but when I signed up I was surprised that one piece didn't have its own subforum.
