Default Okay, it's time to take some initiative

So the channel has been on a standstill for a while. I'm going to be taking some initiative in hopes of reviving and glorifying it. So what's my plan? Basically, we're going to start small. Form a team with everyone interested in helping out. We're going to need narrators, editors, artists, and people willing to share ideas. I'll be writing out threads on how we're going to go about making all our videos as well as applications to join the team. Hopefully we have a good portion of Smogon to help out!

Oh and our IRC channel, for anyone willing to help out: #smogtube

I'm all in to help out, I had a concern though: Why can't we just use #thesmog as our IRC channel? It gets more activity and considering we're a subset of The Smog (atleast according to the forum distribution) it would make more sense to use #thesmog, since atleast it gets activity and we're more likely to get productive input from an active channel than an inactive one. It'll be easier to generate interest, IMO.

#TheSmog is a whole different subset compared to YouTube, I don't think discussions would revolve well around them. And of course nothing has been done yet, so we can't really judge activity issues at the moment.

tbh I agree with badal, but I can see it quickly becoming unsustainable to have two very different projects in the same channel, particularly as #thesmog often gets a lot of traffic at certain points in time.

I don't mind trying to take this over if people don't mind.

There are alot of threads which still need narrations so if anyone wants to help, simply post in those threads that you wish to narrate the battle!
