ProjectAki
rawr. Hello Coley!
Project Aki
Project Aki is the brainchild of Nick Burrus, AboutUs administrator. Project Aki involves Nick joining websites that are community based mainly forum systems involving forums on the vForums software or IPB software including such services such as InvisionFree.com. Other forums may branch out of this.
The start of the project begins with RPG-Directory.com and it later led to NihonFairytales.com. And so on; these sites a member that goes by 'Aki' becomes active and becomes a part of the community and sometimes hitting a staff rank such as what happened at NihonFairytales.com. After a portion of time of trying out various techniques a full review will be added to their page here on AboutUs.

What May Be Tested
- General / Minor rule breaking, nothing too extensive. This will be tested on random boards to see how the staff reacts and will take measures to help set the person straight. The community will have a play in it. If the community starts bashing, etc, their rating goes down.
- Requests ; if the board offers a requesting service it may be tested to see how it fills requests and how they turn out.
- The community ; if the community is rude rating goes down. Staff rude? Rating goes down. Great? Rating goes up. Etc.
