User Posts

That would be nice, just like the magazines but a cover for each series.

yup, that works the same way I think.

Yes, but my suggestion would be a way for users to search for story oriented works, for example Story+vanilla , currently you can see if a chapter is part of a series but you can't search for it.

I think Fakku definitely needs a "story" tag. It would be used as a way for the user to find works that are story oriented, hentai or non-h. Basically any chapter that belongs to a story of at least 2 chapters.

I'm suggesting this because I've noticed that one of the most asked questions when a fakku book comes out is if the chapters are random stories/compilation of random stories or just one story/series through the entire volume.

This could be an idea for a "collection" as well.

This is quite nice! and something the site definitely needs.

I've suggested reviews in the past and I heard the staff is already working on it, but yeah reviews made by users would definitely be a way to make the community more interesting as well as help readers discover new content and discuss series.

Maybe some reviews done by editors could also work, something like "staff pick of the week" or something, with a small review telling why they enjoyed the work.
The return of Fakku youtube channel would also be awesome for reviews and work as a way to interact with the community in a fun way (Fakku news!) but I guess Jacob and Mike are too busy for that...

Don't give me ideas

Definitely needs the beauty mark tag!

What I meant with Fakku original content is that it's not something licensed from Wani or other publisher in japan but an original Fakku published series. Since that would cover pretty much all western artists in the future unless some post their work here but are still indie.

Also, MLP is a cartoon so I think it would make more sense to either black list cartoon related stuff. A japanese artists can still draw MLP in typical moe style too though so I don't know how you can blacklist something that would prevent you from ever see MLP ever. Upon checking all MLP seems to be from Doxy, why not blacklist Doxy for example then? or the tag for the series https://www.fakku.net/series/my-little-pony

And then what's japanese art style? how would Fakku decide what's clearly japanese style and what's not? with japanese style you mean the typical moe style? As I said even in japan there are no guidelines for style, there's so much variety...

in the search bar you can already filter stuff, you can search for multiple tags with "+" and exclude others with "-" ex: +oppai +vanilla -ntr
it's true it would be better if it had an interface though.

Technically the tag isn't wrong, but maybe it's true there's some confusion with the tag. How would you suggest to tag works by non-japanese artists?

What if there's a tag for authors working directly with Fakku? since that's basically what the western tag means right now. Maybe a tag for original Fakku content?

this is making me want to finally draw a color spread...

But the thing is, the western tag doesn't mean "western style" , it just means the author isn't japanese...an author doesn't choose where he was born but he can choose to draw "oppai"

I'm one of the western artists on the site. I can understand where you are coming from since as a reader I've also experienced the feeling that western manga seems to be always of poor quality, or a weird mix with cartoon network styles. However, isn't it to want to blacklist the entire western tag just descrimination? I think that's what the other people have been trying to say here. It's not like there's a style you get for being born in japan and a different style for being born in another part of the world. Manga just means comic in japan, even though they have their own comic culture and inspire each other, manga there doesn't follow any guidelines at all, you have Very different art styles, even in hentai.
I think letting people blacklist the western tag would just contribute to the continuation of the stigma against non japanese artists and also really unfair, since in reality the western tag just means the artist isn't Japanese. And allowing people blacklisting it means that no matter how good a western artist is, some people won't give him a chance because he isn't Japanese.

Or is there a more specific reason you want to block the western tag? Is there a specific artist? You could always just block that artist instead, that I guess I can understand.

Maybe fakku could even suggest some collections on the front page from time to time.
Like : "feeling in a sad story mood? Here are some works" "feeling in a snowy mood? Here are some works you should check"

It was suggested many types by the users for Fakku to implement some way for users to say how good the content is and make it some kind of rank that people can check to decide what to read next. Many people also commented that this would be problematic because some people would simply rate some content 1 star just because it's a genre they don't like (ntr, yaoi).

So my suggestion would be reviews! what if Fakku let users create their own reviews for their favorite works(specially books) that way users could help spread the word of their favorite content in a good way, maybe reviews would be rated maybe not, maybe there would be even a place in the forum for reviews? or a section in the front page for very good written reviews.

Maybe this could even be a way to keep non-subscribers interested in the site and maybe even make some get interested in the content and subscribe.

yes yes I'm aware but what I meant to suggest is to make it more social for users to chat, not sure how though. Maybe have some houses being a bar or something

I agree, this is what I was trying to say.

For me it depends in what type of quests. Personally I don't have much interest in defeating bosses, unless it's done in a fun way that has to do with the site and gives the game a more of a personal touch. But I guess that's too much work for this mini project...?

I also think it would be awesome to have it be more social instead of just a game, maybe it could be a way for users to chat? not sure if it would work or not but idea sound fun to me.

Maybe a way to customize your character too, but then again maybe too much work for a mini project? I'm not sure whats difficult or not to make.

All the remaining free content is all western so you can check the "western" tag for it. The first two chapters of my story(Amague) are still free for now

Definitely!
Sometime ago I suggested something like a special place dedicated to the new fakku book coming out or something where people that purchase the book have access to.
Turning it into something more social might be nice too.

Special events also sounds like a nice idea.

Awesome!!

You almost have a game there. Well Fakku Verse returning would be awesome:
Buying a book unlocks a special place in Fakku Verse, dedicated to that book/artist :D
