Ok guys, this is something important that I wanna talk about, and because I'm a man of the people, I'll leave it to the people to decide

Now, as you've all likely seen, we now have UNiB under out sites name (lets just say it fits into the night theme for now lol). Now Persona is our focus, make no mistake about that. We're gonna make sure to give UNiB its fair love too, and thats where this thread comes in.

I was thinking of making it so people can use UNiB postbits, as a sort of perk for fans of that game to use, in case you don't like P4A or maybe you just like the characters from that game better or w/e. Now I have a few ideas.

1. We enable UNiB postbits in all styles. However, to do this, I'd have to make the Persona character drop down box include the UNiB cast (obviously Id change the profile field to something like Main Character or w/e). If we do it this way, it's one or the other, you can't rep both games post bits.

2. We enable postbits based on themes. We're currently working on an UNiB style/theme so when that launches, you could use UNiB postbits in that style and that style only. However, you could not use Persona postbits in any UNiB style and likewise, you couldn't use UNiB postbits in the Persona styles. Do note that this would use two drop down menus, so for example, on the P4 Style my postbit would show up as Labrys (as well as in Chilling Shot and Dark Hour). For me and everyone using one of those styles, you'd see Labrys. However, if I changed my style to the UNiB one, my postbit would show up as Orie and I'd no longer be able to see any Persona postbits. However, I could see anyone with a UNiB character set who has the postbit.

Easy Version: You'd have two different postbits across the two different game forum styles, and they'd both be set at the same time, but people only see the one thats set for the style they're in.

3. No UNiB postbits period, we stick to the status quo and only Persona postbits will exist.

I urge you guys, even if you're not a premium member, this will affect how the forum looks and the community itself so please weigh in, gives us your thoughts. Vote on one of the above, give reasons if you want, just please contribute to this, you dont want something to happen without your say right? This will remain open until I feel either a decisive opinion is reached, or if enough time has passed.

#2 sounds the most practical since you can control postbits based on themes. It really favors which set of characters the user likes more.

I'm sort of on the fence between option 1 and option 2. But leaning more toward option 2.
I actually really like this idea. I was thinking to myself it would be kinda weird to see a Chie, Chie, Mitsuru, Yosuke, and then a random Hyde in the postbits. It'll look neater and more organized that way in my opinion. Having them theme exclusive will give people even more of a reason to use the other themes. I really look forward to the theme you guys will probably start working on if a lot of users agree on this (I don't see why they wouldn't).

I'd like to hear it straight from the horses Midnight Kings mouth, which option would you prefer yourself? I feel your opinion matters too

Well, at first I liked option 1 over option 3. Then I thought of option 2 AS I was just about to post it before going "Hey wait a minute". With option 2, you basically get what you want at the time, and it ensures people can use both games characters. However it does have cons, like if I wanted to show off an Orie postbit in Dark Hour, that wont happen without option 1. Of course, Option 1 would be convoluted (thats the word of the day, thank you Kaya) where you have a huge menu, and these two different art style postbits together.

Thinking of all the pros and cons, I like option 2 the best, because it feels the fairest for everyone.

I agree, I'm just big on organization and option 1 would bother me after awhile because things would be all over the place. In an Under Night mood? Just choose the theme. Wanna go back to seeing the P4 Cast? Then just switch it back. Like you said it has cons but their not completely game-breaking.

Ya, like I said, for organization and appeal purposes, Option 2 is the best, but as I said, its a vote, I want everyones opinion, maybe Option 1 is better for you guys. Heck, maybe some of you like option 3, so make sure to get your say in guys.

I agree, Surf.
Having it organized in separate themes would make for better consistency.

Option 3 cuz I'm a super cool kid :v:
Option 2 does seem best organization-wise, so that's my vote I guess.

My humble opinion is...option two! :3
It definitely seems like it would be best just from a pure organizational stand point. :3

Lots and lots of option 2 so far, nothing for anything else. Keep those opinions coming guys.

I like option 2

I prefer option 2 myself. I like the concept of it being based on what theme you have up, and it lets people set both their P4U postbit and UNiB postbit.

Same, I'll go with option 2. Seems fair to all members.

So basically, option 2 or bust?

Option 2 seems to be the best choice.

Yeah option 2 seems the best for everyone.

Well I don't see much point in keeping this open anymore, it seems Option 2 is the way we'll go.

Without having to read into this much... the 2nd option seems to be more fair, overall. Definitely what I would go with.

Option 2 seems the most fair. Sorry if its already been decided and im late on this, I just figured it wouldn't hurt to say what I thought on it...
