First of all, thank you as always for visiting! This place wouldn't be the same without you!

Next, a big thanks to our moderators for keeping things in line, it's never an easy job!

Ok, so now the less fun stuff. Some things around the forum aren't as good as they could be, are wack, or just totally broken. That's not good, so we need to get to work on it. At the moment the mods...

Don't make Sakura sad by breaking the rules
​With the staff change in September, users have been asking for a clarification on what exactly are the rules of Stage48. Maybe some of you didn't even know where the previous rules were listed, or just need a reminder of the rules, so the staff has since gotten together and updated them. If you just want the shortened version, the bolded text is all you need....

Hey look, I have some new minions

Some of you may have already noticed certain changes I've made to Stage48 over the past month or so. I said then that it's all part of a bigger update that I would talk about later, and here it is. AKB48 has had their shuffle and kennins cancelled, now it's our turn to shake things up a bit.

as you will have noticed, Stage48 is going through a bit of a change these days. There's still a number of things to come. The main page should start looking even more colorful than it is now, posting (and "liking") functions will be extended, and of course I'll be posting the new rules once I feel everything else is running just fine.

For a long time we, the staff, were against accepting any money from our members. It's been suggested several times but it didn't seem...

This has been an idea that's been gnawing on my mind since I've returned from Japan. After discussing it with a couple other Stage48 staff members this past week we've decided to restart Blog48 from scratch. Right now Blog48 is in shambles and no one goes there because it hasn't been updated since April. I bet some of you didn't even know it existed. However, it's in the header right next to Wiki48 and Studio48, both of which at the...
