I don't know how the moderation in this forum works, but I did set it up for invitation only.

How do I send requests/invites?

From what I gather, I don't think you have to send requests or anything. When someone wants to join the group, they click join, and then a request goes to the mod to accept or reject the join request. I have already sent my request (it's been quite a time), and now you have to accept/reject it. Maybe the message-of-request is in your notifications or something.
Plus, I think at least 2 mods should be there to manage all the stuff in case one's away for a day or so;D

To invite someone to the group, go down to the bottom of the group page and click "Pending & Invited Members" and go from there.

Yay, finall! Thanks.
Ok, we need a group pic. Shall we upload something simple or shall we try adding some effects? Or animate it?
Maybe a simple pic for now and then another one later will do ^.^ Anyways, I am off to sleep in a few mins...

We'll start off with something simple, since I'm not an art guy.

I'm in. I could talk GW forever.

Cuz when I'm bored, spoof!dub happens. No idea why but it's been a very 2xH week for me:

They definitely were. Had the creators not tried to keep things ambiguous, there definitely would have been a kiss somewhere in the scene used for your second video.

[wingzerosnuggles]

You mean the first one, right? The second one is the one with the song and Hilde's pretty much portrayed as getting beat up by MS in that one.

Yeah, I'm sure they would have been more explicit but they had to try and keep all the demographics happy. *shrugs*

Yep, meant first video.

It's a double edged sword. The relative ambiguous romance in the show has contributed greatly to GW's lasting popularity but also opened room for senseless debate. Still love GW though.

Just like all 50 episode Gundams, it overstayed its welcome. It was ok to have 2 episodes per character and some action in between but it became too 1 episode per each character, 3 times over and got rather boring.
And not a single kiss...

I disagree it got boring but to everyone is entitled to their opinions.

Totally not agree. As Elo said in the last post, the ambiguity of GW has fed a lot to it's popularity. The fact they didn't show any intimate stuff was cuz originally, the series was planned to be on politics (and turned out soooo good!). Besides the subtle interaction between the characters is new, refreshing (and addicting, to me). Personally, I find the number of episodes per character to be lacking & missing for some characters(again, due to ambiguity...). I could watch 300 GW episodes and still want more:P!!

I know you are entitled to your opinion, it's just that I love GW so much, I had to say something Just expressing my opinions, don't take it in a wrong way.

Just ignore roriconfan, guys--he's never had anything constructive to say about Gundam and I doubt he ever will.

Not too sure how much politics they wanted in the show originally but I love how it turned out too. The episodes involving Romefeller and the colonies were among my favorites partly because of the politics.

Agreed. While pretty much everyone got their time to shine, certain characters(Relena(yes, her) and Wufei) went too many episodes without so much as a cameo in my opinion.

Yea, I love how it turned out too <3

Oh, and not to mention Trowa, Lady Une, Hilde...and so many others too.

Ah, Gundam Wing. My first Gundam Series . It's not the very best Gundam series IMHO, but it's not at the bottom of the list either. If one'd divide the series up in three parts, then I'd say that the first and last parts were the most interesting ones, whereas the middle part of it felt somewhat dull . Nonetheless, they managed to make things quite interesting late in the series and it was hard to say that one was NOT satisfied at the end .

Plus, of course, the series also had the probably most awesome Magnificent Bastard ever in the form of Treize. Not to mention my favourite Gundam of all time - Epyon!

Indeed. "Scenario for Bloodshed" will always be my favorite GW episode in large part because of Treize's masterstroke and this image and the music:
