Hey everyone,

Please update your bookmarks, or if you are one of our affiliates update our link. We are going to stop using the domain, though for the moment it redirects to the subdomain. Reason being is that it was a free domain via Koby’s host but he is changing packages soon and therefore will be losing the free domains and so I wanted to switch beforehand so we wont get lost.

Our new link is:

http://shinrainsider.kametsu.com

Well I decided to re-open our old topsite list, however this time freely hosted by iTopsites to prevent our hosting resources from being overloaded. Please if you own a site, do join, I’d much appreciate it!

Shinra Insider Topsites –> Join today!

Oh and for the moment, please don’t mind the default button, I am not at home at the moment to be able to upload the real topsite buttons so I just used that one. Once I get home I’ll fix it with the rank buttons 1 through 20! ^_^

Today I managed to open up a new project I decided to work on called English Dub Kingdom! It features Anime dubbed in English Audio downloads of a lot of various series, including Beyblade, Bleach , Blood +, Blue Dragon, Chrono Crusade, Death Note, Dragonball, Fullmetal Alchemist, Hellsing, Naruto, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, and Yuyu Hakusho. So be sure to check it out when you get the chance.

English Dub Kingdom

To start off, I’m sorry about the several months of inactivity. I just don’t get online much anymore and when I do it’s mostly to play games, so I’ve neglected this site alot. I haven’t been playing my Playstation 2, nor have I bought a Playstation 3 yet, so I haven’t been keeping up with the latest Square Enix news, and to be honest, I don’t feel like it.

At first I wanted to run a website, but that feeling didn’t last long and because of it I have been dragging around the Shinra Insider name poorly. I’ve been considering closing the place down, but I really hate for it to all go to waste.

Therefore I’ve decided to try to keep this place running. I’m going to add a gallery to the site and try to populate it with alot of awesome Square Enix related artwork, logo’s, and wallpapers. Though with my current lack of interest I doubt it will be up anytime soon, unless Koby wants to add it of course.

As far as the news goes, I’m not going to be around to update it still for a while. I hope to find someone who will be willing to help out. As you might know I added a mod to the Wordpress to allow visitors to post news, but as expected, not a single news post has been made. Surprisingly not even a spam post. Even without active news on this site that focuses on news only, our visitor count has remained around a steady 80 guests a day. Lower then our old 150, but doing alot better then we were when we first started. So please if you have any interest, fill out an application and send it in to me to be a news poster. It’s a very simple job, and doesn’t take much time to do. Just need to keep up with the news announced.

As to our affiliates, sorry about my lack of enthusiasm towards the site, but please bear with it and don’t drop us! Add me on msn if you haven’t already and we can talk whenever I actually log in. I’d like to actually talk to my affiliates rather then simply have exchanged links.. lol.

Anyone know of a nice gallery script I could possibly use, that does the screenshots and everything, I simply just have to mass upload images? It would be really useful. Oh and anyone visiting the site, please join my brother’s forum if you haven’t already. We currently don’t have one so I use his, however I’m just a regular member. =P Don’t really want to bother running a forum. It’s too much hassle to keep active, lol.

Several updates to the site today. If you visit often, you probably noticed the site wasn’t working, or displaying errors. That was because my internet connection is very slow and I was upgrading our Wordpress to the latest version.

Also we have been getting a ton of spam bot’s registering to our Wordpress, however they haven’t been spamming the comment form, which is strange. Either way to stop them, I’ve added a plugin for Wordpress that requires you to enter a simple question to register an account here.

It’s not just that, but I have also added a plugin that lets you, the visitors of Shinra Insider, post news through your Wordpress account. However I must manually approve your news post. I’d very much appreciate it if you submitted news that way, because it would help out alot, and I don’t always get a chance to post the latest news. ^_^

To post news on Shinra Insider simply click the link in the navigation. From there type in the news title, the news text, and answer a simple question and click post. When I get online, I’ll check and accept the news and voila, your news post will be on the main page. If you do a good job, then eventually I will make your account to where I don’t need to validate your posts. ^_^

Well today we finally got our first batch of affiliates, and I would like to be able to call them friends of Shinra Insider. So say hello to Elemental Revolution, Final Remnant, and Golden Ocarina. You may find their links at the top of everyone of our pages, below the banner to the right. I hope you go visit them as well!

Other news, I closed the Shinra Insider Topsites at request from my brother Koby. Topsite scripts use up alot of resources and were the cause of all the downtime and errors being shown at Shinra Insider as well as the other sites he hosts. So we removed them. However I will most likely get a free hosted topsite at itopsites.com soon, I haven’t decided yet. So please all members of our topsites, remove the button from your site. Thank you.

Update on September 21st
I didn’t feel like this deserved an entire news post, so I just edited the last one. Anyhow I fixed several errors in the layout that were only a problem in Internet Explorer. Another reason why I dislike that crappy browser. =O As always I recommend Firefox to view this site, but anyhow the problems in IE have been solved. Sorry for the lack of Square Enix news updates, I’ve just been lazy latly and haven’t been keeping up to date with the latest announcements. I’ll get them all up shortly.
