    Aarin-tan; possible site mascot?

    I'd just like to suggest that mascot be made for Aarin in the style of the OS-tans of 2 Channel, much like Tvtropes and Wikipedia have. Of course, this particular tan would most likely be a cute Shotaro boy or a trap but a good mascot can do wonders for PR, and the creation of such a character could mean a boon for fiction and art projects for patriotic members. I'd make an Aarin-tan myself, but I think that I have not been here long enough to be able to truly personify the site.

    I wonder how many members would be interested in a site mascot?

    Just FYI - you might get a better response/interest if you used something less obscure in your title -- like "mascot" instead of "Os-tan"

    Heise art really characterizes aarin well
    A mascot it's cute but there are lots of members who don't agree with it. You can make a poll and see what aarin members think of the idea

    I agree with that. I think the cuter the mascot, the more it might encourage underage fangirls and boys from joining our ranks which would serve to make our serious discussions less serious (d'oh!), introduce a lot more spam (d'oh!) and... well... they're underage, and they're not supposed to be here.

    Sounds interesting, but it has to be picked carefully...

    kriptonima suggested we hold a contest for it and vote... however, we really need to have one that fits the site's ideas/concept. Even if there's a lot of participation and really good mascots, and even if we pick a winner... it may not be fitting to our site, so we can't guarantee if there will be any mascots.

    Like I said, it's an interesting idea... can give it a try.

    Hmm I'm not really fond of the idea of a mascot for aarinfantasy, especially if it is a "cute boy" as you say. It makes me think of shota, and while some fans are very fond of shota, shota makes me extremely uncomfortable. I would not want to see a shota boy on aarin's front page

    I agree that heise's bishies are our true mascots
