@aleph:

Ace isn't dead,
I mean if Pell survived…

can't agree with you more.

@Carly:

#1 – you get shitty discussions.

#2 -- um, no, it's the same bloody topic.

You happy now ? :P

If you don't have anything good to say. Don't put anything down. You're not helping.

@captain:

But there are already several threads to talk about franky.

It's not about Franky's joining. You still don't get it.

@captain:

We don't need a new topic every time someone decides to discuss it. Then we just end up with a lot of garbage threads.

You're right. So we do need these

• Mihawk vs Logia users
  - kenshin vs. mihawk

• Zoro VS. Mihawk

• Mihawk and Krieg

• mihawk equal to whitebeard?

• Shanks and Mihawk Rivals/Sparring Buddies?!!!

• Can Luffy harm Smoker now
  - Luffy vs Smoker?

• About Buggy and Shanks

• Shanks and Buggy meet Whitebeard
  - Shanks letters to Whitebeard??

• shanks, buggy = crews of whitebeard

• Shanks V.s. Luffy (prediction)

• Shanks Or Ace?

• Shanks and Dragon

• Red Haired Shanks

• Shanks

• Shanks

• Shanks

• the scar of shanks

Do you need more?
@captain:

I also want to speak kindly of bevin here. bevin is a mod with great judgment. He takes the time to read what's going on, tries to help direct people in the right direction, and never bashes or flames the person. He also has a witty humor in closing his threads that I think is non-offencive.

He could be a nice guy but he can be even nicer if he be more careful. Getting the wrong idea is getting the wrong idea. Being a nice guy has nothing to do with it. I hate repeating this. My topic wasn't about Franky's possibly joining, but he closed it because he thought that it was about Franky's possibly joining. This is my point. I would accept it if he closed my thread because there's already a thread talk about what kind of crew SH still need, like the ones that Oceanizer showed me. AND he could be nice to post the link when he closed the thread so that people can track it, if he can't merge it. Don't think like "Oh! this thread should be closed, so I'm gonna close it now." If he wants to be a nicer guy, he should give people information too.

@captain:

patz, it's all spilt milk now. let by-gones be by-gones. Lets go have fun now.

Thank you. I do now. All i'm asking here is mod to read more careful before they make a judgement and be more open so that they know that other people have feeling too. Don't just close it because they think it's pointless. That's just their opinion.

If they do care other people feeling, they would understand. You know people have hearts and it can be hurt.

@oceanizer:

Then there will be tons of topics that people want to pin. I bet people want Official VIZ thread to be pinned, some people might want spoiler thread to be pinned, so on and so forth. We just have too many interesting threads going on. Please utilize the Search function. It's there for a reason.

Thank you for listing all the threads. But like I said, I swear that I already used the search function but it didn't show me all the threads that you listed. I searched "new crew member" but it didn't show me what I expected so can't blame me on that. It's your program that didn't show enough result.

I still disagree with closing topics. At least you can merge them. Closing them is like you ignore what people're saying. Imagine if you say something and your friend say "I don't wanna talk it. It's dumb." or "We already talked about this. Why do we need to talk about this again? That's enough", get it? That is mean. Plus, it doesn't matter if my topic is already exist. BUT the mod who close my topic didn't even read carefully before he/she closed it. He/she got the wrong idea and closed it carelessly. If it's something else, not concerning about what kind of crew do SH need, he/she gonna close it anyway because he/she misunderstood. Do you get it now? There is no excuse.

Before you close any topic, you need to read carefully and think about other people's feeling too. A lot of people are sensitive. Don't close the topic just because you don't like it. I heard from one member that you guys closed his/her topic because a fan-art like that was on Deviantart. Why are your people's mind so narrow? I agree that we do need a structure but not this mean, sorry. I'm not like some people here who feel nothing on ignoring people. I do have feeling.

Why are you cloing so many threads when you didn't have to.

First time, I started a joke topic about if Luffy ever wash his hat.
http://apforums.net/showthread.php?t=8617
The mod closed it because he didn't like dumb topic. I still don't get. It's not like it's going to hurt anyone. If some people don't like it, they can just ignore it. The thread will die eventually. If you don't like joke, why are you reading One Piece?

Second time, this time I was more careful not to make a dumb topic and not to make a topic that already exist. I did use the search function before I started the thread.
http://apforums.net/showthread.php?t=9094
Here, it's about if Franky is the last member or not. If not, what kind of crew member that Strawhats need? Then again, the mod closed it when he didn't even read carefully and said "Already many discussions about Franky possibly joining.". Do you get it? Fraky's joining and the last crew member is totally different ideas. I send him a pm that it's different ideas and he answered me that he got a lot of that too. Eventhough this idea had been talked before but there's no thread about this exists. If there's already one, where is it?

I didn't see why you need to close it. It's not like oh this is another thread about Franky and we alreeady have a thread about Franky so let's close it. You need to read carefully to get the idea before you close it. I can tell that the mod who closed my thread he didn't even read carefully when he closed it. I can tell from his post. There also are threads about Luffy's drawing is the clue for next crew member. The thread is alreadt existed and someone started it again, BUT you let it go. IS IT FAIR?

I know that you're going to close this one too because you can't take anyone who don't agree with you. It's fine. Do whatever you want. This is your place and I'm just a member.

If not, what kind of crew member that Strawhats still need?
More devil fruit users would be very interesting.

PS. Let say that Franky is also a musician.

In my opinion, I think the new ship is going to be very huge. There's gonna be

a conference room
a library for Robin and Chopper
an operation or surgery room for Chopper
a gym or fitness center for Zoro
a lab or mechanic room for Ussopp and Franky
a drawing room for Nami
a garden for Nami
a large kitchen for Sanji
a big dinning room
a play/music room for Luffy
a huge storage to keep all treasures

Can you please stop talking about Mihawk, Logia type or whatever because it has nothing to do with Chapter 428. You should start a new topic "Can Mihawk beat logia type users ?". I don't even know that people now read topics or not. how can people've been off the topic this far?

Oda said he will kill one of Strawhat's member this year. Most likely Merry will be replaced.

@kljs:

I also think it will be that way, but I can't stop help feeling that Oda is not going to go with that scenario…...because from the Going Merry's 2 sentences at the end of this chapter........

I'm afraid so. I wish this is the last thing Merry can do to help his friends.

Me too, hope this fight finish next chapter. It's getting boring.

Gomu Gomu …...

Gomu Gome ..........

It has been like this more than 10 chapters already, so boring.
