| I like some of the things their database can do- the site's ability to compare other users' "compatibility" with yourself by what you've rated is quite a novel touch. I avoid their forums however. |

They seem to be having network problems. I just loaded the front page OK, clicked to read some unread messages and then lost the connection.
--edit--
Came back briefly, now there's a "down for maintenence message". |

| I just hope it stays free. Advertisments don't mean anything when you have ABP. |

You mean the ads? They were already there before Crave bought MAL.

Don't bother; it's obviously a troll. |

| Never hear of it TBH is it a site that shows official trailers to films and things like that. Or is it just another site with a shed load of illegal content on it? |

The only redeeming factor about the MAL forums is that I don't feel guilty witting one liner posts there. I once posted a 5-6 line response and one of their members accused me of being long winded.
That being said, MAL does have it strengths. I love their compatibility feature. I am also sure to visit their site from time to time to add to my anime list. I just hope this acquisition doesn't add adverts to the site or make the site a paid service. Feel free to send my a friend invite from the MAL site if you wish, I would love the chance to compare anime preferences with anyone from ANN. |

| I don't use MAL for much other than the anime list itself, but I absolutely love that aspect of it. I feel like it's a way to chronicle my adventures through this particular fandom, not to mention the fact that it's a fantastic organizational tool for keeping track of where I am in what I'm watching. So long as this acquisition doesn't change the list setup or the anime database, I'm fine with it. |
