this question is about idol threads - I'm asking in here bc I didn't see anywhere else to ask. Do we just go ahead and make one or do we need your approval? and what are the guidelines for idol threads?

this question is about idol threads - I'm asking in here bc I didn't see anywhere else to ask. Do we just go ahead and make one or do we need your approval? and what are the guidelines for idol threads?

First step is to see if there's an official one already listed here

Artist threads list - K-Pop Source — Keeping the K-Pop Forum Spirit Alive

Here is a compiled list of all idol threads in this forum. If you wish for your threads to be featured here, please alert any of the @Moderator's to apply your thread to be featured here. A new gallery version is available here https://kpopsource.com/pages/hall-of-idols/ GROUPS (They are...

If no, you can make one without asking us HOWEVER since there are sometimes instances where artist threads are not listed on the official page, you should always go post in the oldest artist thread possible

Spoiler: how to do that

When you go to create one, KS will generate threads with the same words you put in your title

If I was going to create a group thread for ZB1, this has told me that I need to stop because one already exists! If the group you're looking for uses an abbreviation, make sure to check both that and the full name.

If there is one currently, you should post in the existing thread BUT if the OP of the thread is inactive and you want to take it over then you should go here to ask for it:

Takeover Idol Thread Request - K-Pop Source — Keeping the K-Pop Forum Spirit Alive

@Moderator I got @Yerichu permisson to take over both ahyeon & rora's artist thread (+ 2 first posts) https://kpopsource.com/threads/official-baemon-ahyeon-thread.128491/ https://kpopsource.com/threads/official-baemon-rora-thread.128504/

kpopsource.com

There is a general outline here, as you have probably seen many artist threads follow the same flow where:
1. first post - group/idol name/pics/basic info
2. second post - reserve if you want it to split up information visually, if you don't want it it's not mandatory

Artist thread badges outline - K-Pop Source — Keeping the K-Pop Forum Spirit Alive

Hello, This thread will outline details about earning badges from artist threads. In summary, artist thread badges can be earned by the top poster of a thread once the thread has reached 50 pages. These badges can be still images or gifs, but must be related to the group or soloist the thread...

kpopsource.com

Other basics include:
1. make sure the thread is posted in the right section (KR/JP/TH/CH/other) with the correct tag (Group/Solo/Actor)
2. once you've created the thread, please send the link over to the official list so that your thread can be added

I hope this helps, if not, let me know, and I will be back

The artists have to be approved and voting has to be held before badges are uploaded

can we get a badge for wednesday campanella vocalist, utaha?

Did she debut as a soloist?

 

[uarmyhope]

Did she debut as a soloist?

she's technically not a soloist but she's pretty much the face of the group.

if no then can we get a chanmina badge instead? she's a soloist

Apologies for the late reply, yes Chanmina has enough images so you could op a badge thread for her. Looking into Wednesday Campanella, they also appear to have enough images

you know my idea for the rights to a card and not the card itself?

I'll explain it again...

right now you do your daillies and you post somewhere and someone gives you a card right?
so in my case I would say I've done my dailies but instead of someone allocating a card to me - they allocate that to someone else of my choosing

ie. I've done my dailies please give a card to (nina) for example

I apologize for the delay in our response, we decided we would be unable to let you surrender your card rights. We stand firm on our KS Constitution that every user who requests and qualifies for cards will be handed those cards and thus, we would be unable to give another user those cards. You can always donate or trade them to other users, but receiving the daily cards themselves is unavoidable.

Self, u can always gift ur cards to me(tho I hv currently all the Korean commons...) if this if off topic, srry.

We are so off topic given that we're in the awards section and not cards might as well start posting our random thoughts too

BRO I WAS GONNA SAY- what am I backreading about cards here
