Chuunin FAQ

[eighty.livejournal.com]

The idea of having an FAQ has been floating around chuunin for a while now, and it's really about time we get on that one. So here's your chance to contribute to the creation of an official chuunin FAQ!

Reply to this post with suggestions for questions (preferably with answers) which you think should be in the FAQ. You can also reply to other suggestions with your own suggested revisions, or even disagreements about it being included. In the end, we'll scoop up all the ideas and compile it into a nice, organized FAQ post for the community.

Questions may include:
"What does dattebayo mean?"
"What does shannaro mean?"
"Is Haku really a boy?"
etc

Any questions or needs for clarification: just ask!

Yeah something like that is definatly needed

There's all the names that Sasuke calls Naruto that could go in there (don't ask me to spell them, haha)

[braver.livejournal.com]

There's 'dobe' 'teme' and 'usuratonkachi'...

[memoriez-lost.livejournal.com]

Hmm.. I guess what princessunikorn said, plus stuff like what nicknames like "thick-brows" or "Beautiful Green Beast of Konoha" is in Japanese.

And maybe clarify some commonly misspelled terms, such as how "jutsu" is not "jitsu", etc. Yeah. Sorry, that's all I can think of now ^_^;;

To whoever it is who's going to compile the FAQ: the following post is a good source of information pertaining to the common spelling mistakes:

For some character info, this one might be useful:

'Where can I download the manga/episodes?' (Both english / subtitled)
'What is a good site to buy Naruto merchandise from?'
'What are some good websites to find information about Naruto?'
'What are some other good communities for Naruto fans to join?' (Icon journals, Naruto rating communities, that elitist ANBU community or whatever it's called, dub_academy, etc!)

I am sure I could think of more if my brain wasn't exhausted

WHAT gender is Deidara???

[splintered-soul.livejournal.com]

What do the Naruto names mean?
What's the difference from Chidori and Raikiri?
-kun, -san, -chan, -sensei, -teme, -shishou, and other words (dobe, ect)
Basic ninja accessories (senbon, hiate, ect)
Different hand symbols
Different countries and hidden villages
Sannin vrs. Sennin.
What is Anbu?
NEJI'S SEAL IS NOT A SWASTIKA!

Um, that it's I guess.

- What is the difference between a tanuki and a badger or racoon?

I don't have an answer, but...

There's always the: "Where can I find (insert name here)?" questions. Usually requesting things like True Naruto Style, or Amv's or something.

You could make a post with questions and answers, and put links to these things at the bottom of the page, and put a link to the post on the Chuunin user info so that it's easy to access (like the community homestar_runner does with their 'all ready been posted' list. Then whoever made the topic would just have to go back and update it periodically. Once people get used to it, the community should stop seeing multiple topics requesting the same thing.

Re: I don't have an answer, but...

[domlandbubbles.livejournal.com]

That's a good idea. Topics like, who's the leader of Akatsuki? Is Yondaime Naruto's dad? Stuff like that.

Discussed to death and we still don't know.

Re: I don't have an answer, but...

[hercshman.livejournal.com]

Exactly. In the ABP post just make a link to other posts with a specific subject. If you go there and see what you want to talk about, go to the old topic and contribute. If you got here and don't see your topic you can post and it'll get added to the list.

It might also be a nice way to collect things like icon, and fanart posts in one place.

I'm not inspired right now but...

Is Naruto licensed?
Why does the Kyuubi have 9 tails? (1 for each 1000 years nope? it means he's the most specialER of the tailed demons)
Which/who are the other tailed demons?

major differences in manga/anime (site where they can get it) and tying that in that with where filler epsiodes begin etc.
