MyDramsList Account

[forestofglory]

I set up an account at MyDramaList today. You can find me Here

I'm not sure that I watch enough dramas to really need an account there. (I'm a slow watcher of things) But several friends have accounts there and it seems like it might come in handy.

Sent you a friend request! ^_^

Welcome! *g*

I find it very very useful. Especially with my strategy of starting several things at once and see what sticks - I usually put the ones that didn't make it on my on-hold or (in rare cases) my dropped list, to maybe pick back up later. Or when I'm watching several different dramas at once (for mood purposes), I can easily keep track of where I left off via episode count.

Also, finding new stuff to watch by actor search! Everything is linked with each other, so it's really easy for me to find new things to try out. *g*

That's a good point that it would be helpful it I try watching a couple things at once as I keep meaning to.

I tend not to follow actors, but I can see how its very helpful for people who do.

You can also search by tags, which is very helpful, too!

[forestofglory]

That does seem handy! Now if only they had "woman in armor" tag.

[dancing_serpent]

I wonder if that's something we could start adding? I've added/deleted tags from a drama before, but they were already existing ones.

We could make a case for creating this as a new category, because Strong Female Lead covers all kinds of bases, but doesn't necessarily mean she's armoured and fighting.

It looks like you can just add tags, but then someone has to approve them? So I tried adding "Women in Armor" too a couple of things. I guess we'll see if it gets approved

Unless you went through the "edit this page" thing, they'll probably deny it. It was a mistake I made, when I wanted to change the tags for TGoY. Apparently, you have to go the more complicated route. Once I did that, my tag changes got approved.
