symbv, why instead of feeding the troll don't you delete all the offending off-topic, derailing, baiting posts? Seriously.
I don't think its a troll, plenty of people actually think like that. Just visit tumblr, and you'll see.

A Moderator who doesn't have mod powers? Who thought that was a good idea?
No wonder nobody respects symbv around here and the threads are full of shitposting, off-topic, derailing and baiting posts. It's really sad considering that the sales discussion topics are the only area of MAL forums worth visiting anymore.
You can try to dance around the issue all you want but in the end your words boil down to the one idea "Women aren't important enough to buy a series this much".
For someone who's on the news team of this site I'd expect you to be vastly more professional.

symbv doesn't have the power to modify/delete posts such as what you listed, except the beginning posts of topics in the News Discussion board. Maybe it'd be better if News Mods had forum moderator powers just within the News Discussion board or something.

"women don't buy anime"
Sorry, who are you quoting there? It's certainly not anyone who actually follows anime sales, and thus not anyone you'll find on this thread.
Oh, they don't SAY that. No one does. But that's what they BELIEVE, and what they wish was true.
When dealing with societal things like this one must look beneath the words and get the true intention underneath, no one says what they really believe besides utterly crazy people.
Note: He NEVER said it got its success from men. His position is a lot more moderate and REASONABLE compared to you because he accepted Free! got its success from women BUT also that it would not have sold this much if it only got support from women.
Hey look it's most sexist bullshit!

What. I see nothing sexist about this. It's true that if it had JUST the fujoshi/female otaku fanbase it wouldn't have sold as much as it did. Studio Deen always release anime mainly catered towards women (a lot of the time), but their stuff doesn't get that many sales (that I am aware of). It's both men and women contributing that's causing Free! to get such amazing sales, there is no gender above the other.
In other words; Free! would not have sold this much if it had gotten support only from women, nor would it have sold this much if it had been solely men. The fact here is that there are both women and men in the fanbase.

I can't wait for the misogynists to engage in histrionic downplaying of Free's sales--oh wait they're already doing it!
So pandering rubbish like Free is selling almost 20k while something legitimately great like Genshiken doesn't even reach a thousand. Alright. I think I'm done caring about the modern industry at this point.
>All this damage control
Also you have no fucking right to use "pandering" negatively when you have a fucking Neptunia avatar and sig. And I like Neptunia!
Your mistake was to assume that only girls watched/bought it, it has been admited and said on many japanese and even western forums that a large portion of the consumers are male and i would have never expected Free to reach those sales without the male audience, and how "good" it is depends on each individual.
Did you really just say this? Are you legit this utterly insane or deluded?
I want you to look at what you said again, and accurately tell me how incredibly fucking stupid it is.
I have to tip my hat to you, however--misogynistic downplaying AND Mansplainin' in one paragraph!
IS got 30k, what do you expect LMFAO

No he is not reasonable. He is wrong. Actually, he is so wrong that it creates a massive black hole of complete wrongness so utterly wrong it nearly breaks reality.
Free! did not get its success from men. It got its success from women. Before the show came out you misogynists were talking about how it would fail because it was aimed at women and "women don't buy anime" (a statement that is patently false). Now that you were proven wrong you guys IMMEDIATELY changed your tunes and said "oh, it's a success because of men!"
No that ain't how it works. You can't handwave da ebul wimminz away.
>Claims a series aimed at women is successful because men bought it
>Does this solely to deny that women have market power and ought to get shows aimed at them solely because the idea of a show not catering to his dick
Yeah, that's basically the definition of misogynist downplaying.
Oct 21, 2013 8:32 PM by symbv
To be honest, I think Downgrade355 is pretty reasonable in saying a large portion of the audience and consumers are male. And it is clear that the show has retained a substantial support from male sector just by comments and feedback from forums. If you are so sure that this is not the case, to the extent that you can assert that he was being "utterly insane or deluded" then it is YOU who should show the evidence. Otherwise, I would say that perhaps it is you who are being utterly insane or deluded in thinking that the show is only watched and supported by women.

Maybe its the way he worded it, but he's just saying that men also bought Free! but you can't deny that majority of it were women.

I wonder what is causing the increase? It is because the new episode was aired yesterday? The new episode (ep.3) is on vol.2 though, not vol.1.

talking of stalker predictions, meganebu! made a huge jump. doesn't necessarily mean much (its still only between 200~300 ranks), but it still surprised me.
Meganebu! seems to start around 2000 ranks then kept on dropping to around 18000 ranks then jumped into 200~300 ranks.

If Log Horizon and WA2 will sell well, I'm hoping that Satelight will keep up the quality they've done with both animes to their future titles, because those 2 animes are the ones I look forward to the most.
Hopefully Tatsunoko will get a good break with Gatchaman Crowds, even though I don't really like it. How is it fairing? It's just that Tatsunoko Productions is turning out to be one of my favourite studios out after Yozakura Quartet.

kyoukai no kanata though.. guess it won't be a huge seller. but i can understand why people wouldn't want to preorder it at this point. for me, it still lacks lots of explanation...

symbv doesn't have the power to modify/delete posts such as what you listed, except the beginning posts of topics in the News Discussion board. Maybe it'd be better if News Mods had forum moderator powers just within the News Discussion board or something.
A Moderator who doesn't have mod powers? Who thought that was a good idea? No wonder nobody respects symbv around here and the threads are full of shitposting, off-topic, derailing and baiting posts. It's really sad considering that the sales discussion topics are the only area of MAL forums worth visiting anymore.
To reiterate symbv's point, we have a team of moderators with different responsibilities. You can see more here: http://myanimelist.net/about.php?go=team
I, as a forum moderator, would fit the description of "Mod power" that you set forth the most. If you find any post that violate our Guidelines: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=516059, you can report it to us using the report bottom at the bottom of every comment.
Regarding the news threads, they are looked after with the same frequency as other boards on MAL, maybe even more so with me being a regular visitor here.
