How to prepare yourself for Jappleng's completion

Written by: OG Jappleng

This is it, May is here and my goal was to complete all major development by the end of the first week of May. Now we're beginning the first week of May and so I only have a few days left. Here's how you can brace yourself for the epicness which will follow.

1. Get used to Jappleng as much as you can
Jappleng is big and likewise people will have questions when they get here. Part of being their senpai is being able to guide them where they need to be. A help section will be made available, but that won't be enough for the first round of invitees. By getting used to the different sections available on Jappleng, you will also find out new fun things you can experience and keep an eye on.

2. Create a J-Blog!
Now is the best time to create a J-Blog! The J-Blog home page right now is a bit bland right now but everything else works just fine. Post about your experiences and this will get yourself involved and used to posting content on Jappleng. It will also give other people something to read and enjoy while they are here.

3. Don't forget about News in Japan!
This is a member contributed section. Without people posting new news content, there's no telling what's really happening in Japan! You will earn achievements, J-Points, and be ranked with others. News in Japan is easily forgotten.

4. Don't forget about the Forums!
This is also an easily forgotten section. Please don't forget about this section. It's a great nifty place to keep discussions going for a long time even with people whom you are not friends with. It won't look good if the last several conversations were posted weeks or even months ago, we can have fun conversations! Ask if you want to write new topics but aren't sure what to write about. I've got lots of ideas smile

5. Prepare your Club!
Club Jappleng is getting complete right now. All development clubs will be deleted but afterwards, all clubs are a go! We have various categories to choose from and if your category is not listed, let us know and we'll add it to the list. Clubs have events, wiki, polls, quizzes, forums, image galleries, and so on... Please keep those features (optional) into consideration. I recommend writing everything in a word document and then copy-pasting it into your new club when it's time for it.

5. Tell all of your friends / Social media (Please!)
If you have a social media account, please tell people about Jappleng. If you have friends who love anime/Japan or want to learn Japanese, please tell them about Jappleng. Also, if you happen to have a youtube account, consider talking about us one way or another like if you're learning Japanese with JPLearn! maybe, talk about your experiences etc... Every bit helps!

Don't forget, we want to make this a great place for everyone!
Jappleng's first and foremost importance is to deliver the greatest Education/Entertainment website about Japan. The only way we can accomplish this is if we enjoy ourselves. Take the time and enjoy every aspect of Jappleng as you can and if there's ever something that you don't like, let us know so we can improve it!
