About Us
how we came to be, and some info
Meaning
True-Colors is a human rights group.
In this group we, the TC Staff, would like you to feel in a comfortable place where you may share and say what you want. This in no means gives our members the right to descriminate others on behalf of their hatred. Use of the words "strongly dislike" are more than enough to get your wished meaning through.
The group name - even though not chosen by the current administration - now means something along the lines of showing our 'true' self without worrying about what others think of you. Without the fear of exposing yourself to anyone. If members feel they need someone to talk to, then they sure as heck can :) Here in this group, are members that support people's rights, and would probably be happy to help a fellow member.
That is what this group will be and is ^_^
History
Originaly an anime fan group, we started off dead. And remained dead until the founders of this group left with a few others. Leaving me melymay, and peniko with the group. Since we didn't want the group to die, we changed the meaning and the layout, hoping for a better start. We obtained a few new members, but didn't really "grow" as a group. So here we are now, at our second attempt to revival.
Rules
Our rules are the same rules that we have on MT. Click here to see the Minitokyo Policy.
What We Do
We do what every other group does. We chat in our guestbooks. About what you ask? Well, about our daily lives. We'll get into some serious subjects when the time comes. There's also the news to talk about. Share your opinions. Ask questions.
We will only hold contests when we have enough participants. We can have debates, and graphic contests. It's pretty much up to our members.
As a group we do other things to. For those that haven't nocticed yet, before the guestbook comments start there is an area on our page with 3 banners from different sites. They represent two organizations, ONE and RED. We recommend to join ONE.org and sign your name on the the petition. No cost :) The petition is to help stop poverty. As for RED, you can help them by buying their products. Which goes to help stopping AIDS in Africa. And last but not least, DATA. A group which exists to eliminate extreme poverty and AIDS in Africa.
Interested? Then join :)
Affiliating
We take any group as an affiliate, unless the group is something like the KKK, then no. But other than that, True-Colors is willing to affiliate with any group :) Just sign the guestbook saying that you want to affiliate with us. There will be no need to provide and image to put on our group page, we will make them ourselves. We'll also make a True-Colors banner for you (as in the group that wants to affiliate with us), if you want one. If there is a specific size please tell us ^^
attention
If your group is for hentai, ecchi, or anything along the lines of that. Affliation will still be accepted. But keep in mind that I, melymay, will personally drop by these affiliation(s) more often than other affiliates. If any form of discrimination is found, affiliation with True-Colors will be terminated.

Updates?
- "simplified" the group page
The content of the group has been changed to make scrolling down easier for your poor fingers. I've taken the whole explanation of the current "operation" off the page, and have put a link to the original thread instead. The "Updates" section (the one you're reading at the moment) has been shortened so that it will only show one update at a time instead of multiple ones. The multiple updates were up there for the members that aren't always online. It will somewhat enlighten them on what's going on in the group.
If you see something you don't understand, just ask one of the staff, and they'll be happy to help you. I think. If they're not, just ask me (melymay) and I probably will be able to help you.

What You Can Do
please :)
Members, in order for our group to grow we need your help. How you may ask? By doing the following...Put one of our banners on your userpage ^^
Putting our avatar with each of your submissions :)
Want To Help Some Causes?
please do :)
These banners are banners from other sites. ONE.org is a site that represents an organization that is trying to stop poverty, and RED is an organization that is trying to stop AIDS in Africa. I recommend on signing the petition in ONE.org, because that's how ONE is helping to get rid of poverty. The DATA is a group to eliminate extreme poverty and AIDS in Africa.

hey2 :'D sorry for being a super lazy mod >____<
btw, how about we make some event here.
Yup, I'd have to agree. Me being one of them recently. A tornado hit my town and my computer's fried. Outside there's a tree on our shed and a busted fence. I might not be here for a while, but I hope to be more active soon. ^^ ...and maybe even with a new computer...
Oh. Wow. That's intense :S
Metallic colours? I'm all good with that ^^

Hmm.. I've noticed that MT members aren't as active as they used to be.
I've seen that movie. Its difficult to watch in some parts, but a good movie. I doubt I'd watch it twice. You know that those things have happened in real life, even children being taken from their parents and are forced to join certain factions that kill, rape, and murder people. Its just awful.

I don't have any suggestions, really. A silver or metallic layout might be nifty. I dunno.
It's alright.
That story is sad. I have a feeling it's too late for her now. Unless the man she was with helped her out of the country because she - for some reason - had to leave. There are a lot of possibilities. Maybe the man she was with was a murderer. But then again, this about a friend of a friend, so you can't be too sure how accurate or real the information is.
Blood Diamonds? Do you mean Blood Diamond? I haven't found the time to watch it yet, but my friend, my mother and my cousin apparently really liked it. The previews looked good, I think you should watch it if you already haven't.
merged: 03-25-2008 ~ 05:41am
Any suggestions on colour themes for the new layout?
sorry i disappeared. gomen.
ahh umm...that reminds me sorta of a new story that i found really scary and shocking. my sister's friend's sister sort of vanished one day after a party. my sister's friend is really scared because his sister was with some guy who has a bad record from the past. It's been over a year and they didnt find her...i dont know about the guy. either they found out about him or hes refusing to talk. but its really scary...
did anyone watch blood diamonds? is it any good?
Oh wow, sucks to be her. I don't think they'll be able to find her :/ If it's really been two years, all evidence would probably be gone.
I've made an announcement about that a while back. I think I mentioned that already in my last post.
Ugu. That is annoying. Heh heh with my groups, I can usually come up with ideas and keep it alive if I really want to. But right now, two of the groups I'm admin in are sort of dead because I haven't worked on them...
Hmm...let me see...maybe there can be some sort of contest? try making an announcement asking the group members how to keep the group alive. ask for ideas...i can't really think of any...-.-'
