Hi Omonian babes! As most of you might be aware, we've been conducting a little experiment to try to make loading times a little faster on the main Omona home pages. We've asked submitters to limit their content outside of the cuts to just 1 video/image/gif and 1 extra gif, and to have everything else under lj-cuts instead of just lj-spoilers. Here's the post from last week in case you missed it (sorry lurkers, it's for members' eyes only.) And here's that performance poll we said we've have:
[Poll #2056647]
About those Friending Memes:
We know that you guys are very eager for a Friending Meme, so to prep for it we just have a few questions for the members:
[Poll #2056648]
Note: The Sexiest Men portion of the Thirst Games ends in about 2 weeks. So 'After' would be then.
[Poll #2056649]
If you have any requests or suggestions for questions to include in the friending meme, let us know in the comments.
As always, we are very thankful to all the people making posts, and for making our job easier by remembering to use the lj-cuts. Thank you for your time! Please leave your questions, comments, and puppy pics down below. :)

Date: 2016-10-30 05:20 am (UTC)if it's still slow for some ppl, they might consider trying the mobile site (http://m.livejournal.com/read/user/omonatheydidnt)? it keeps all media from loading unless u click to show it. the only problem i found is that stuff under spoiler cuts doesn't seem to show up at all..it does load faster tho
ive never done friend meme before so idk how it works lol but i hope a lot of people participate :)
oh and i have a question, can i make an original header image for posts? and if i do, should i still source each photo used to make it? sorry i hope this makes sense!
no subject
Date: 2016-10-30 05:52 am (UTC)Yes, you can make your own header for posts. As for crediting, it would depend on your source I guess. I know that some fansites have rules against editing/not crediting their pictures, so just be careful about that. :)
I've actually never done/participated in a friending meme before either, so I'm doing research now on how to make an interesting one. I think the last one was in 2015.. so it's about time.

Date: 2016-10-30 06:49 am (UTC)cute questions! and well, i always have 500 dorky q's i like to ask, here is just a few ideas (that are really disorganized sorry lol)
kpop
idol u are most like & why
idol u most want to meet
ideal type/ idol u would date
fave mv
non kpop
what fictional character you identify with?
strangest phobia?
ur most charming quality?
unique talent?
what u are most passionate about?
an optional handwriting meme, like write ur favorite quote and post it? since ppl will have more time to craft their answers it could be fun to add :)
i hope this fits w/ a traditional friending meme. u dont have to use any of them, i can always save them for a ffa! hopefully more people show up to this post w/ some better ideas soon tho lmao :) :)

Date: 2016-10-30 07:09 am (UTC)A handwriting meme sounds interesting as well. I think there were even talks about trying a voice/accent meme, but there's the question of how/where to upload the recordings.
Basically anything to get people talking/engaging with each other and finding common ground will be good. :)
no subject
Date: 2016-10-30 09:37 pm (UTC)I really like this idea! how about this for recording? http://vocaroo.com/
I think ONTD did the accent meme long time ago and they used this website.

Date: 2016-10-30 08:48 am (UTC)On a more serious note, we really just wanted to help address the slowness issue that was being brought up by some members. I don't really know of any other possible solutions... But the other mods have said that felt a difference though, and I guess that's the most important thing. Being able to browse the site quickly makes our jobs a lot easier. :)
no subject
Date: 2016-10-30 09:00 am (UTC)Yeah, I understand why you did this and it's really great. I even said in the first post (I think) that it was slow for me but I'm not sure it made a difference now. Either it wasn't slow in the first place or I got used to it really fast or it didn't really change much or I was too busy with other things to pay attention or my 7yo laptop doesn't care (poor thing). But it worked for some people so that's good.

Date: 2016-10-30 08:35 am (UTC)friending meme sounds fun! It's been a long time since I've seen one let alone participate. I don't really have an active tumblr/twitter that isn't completely personal though so I probably won't be able to expand these potential friendships beyond lj :/
no subject
Date: 2016-10-30 09:53 am (UTC)Maybe you can make a new twitter account just for your fangirling/friend making? haha It's a lot easier to switch between accounts these days, at least on mobile. :D

Date: 2016-12-17 12:03 am (UTC)Anyway, Omona seems to work much much better these days and that's awesome! I haven't changed my browser (Firefox) or Internet connection, but as long as it's not slow anymore I don't really care why it got better lol I never had that problem with ONTD (dunno about Tumblr since I don't use it).

Date: 2016-10-30 05:55 pm (UTC)i recommend using some sort of test website loading time tool to troubleshoot why it's loading so slowly: https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/cicsrz/http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com (https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/cicsrz/http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com).
also, firefox as a browser is generally pretty slow and takes up a bunch of memory to run. chrome and safari are much faster.
