By "one", are you referring to the WBO Authorized Beyblade Dealers ? Because I do not really see sites as "one" the same way "one" usually refers to someone.

One AKA how do I become an authorized seller like dimsum2?

It seems like an easy Copy and Paste job, so if possible, can I keep track of these lists and constantly update them as soon as new articles with new parts are added into the wiki?

I'd guess you'd get a better response posting this somewhere in the Beywiki forum, or you could try asking Kei directly.

I doubt there'd be any issue if all you did was cut and paste pre-approved stuff though.
Sorry if this has been asked and/or answered before.

Why is it that whenever I make a new thread in the General Discussion forum, it doesn't show up along with the other new posts until later? It happened with my 9/11 thread, and it happened again today with my Kendama thread, which has still yet to show up.

Do topics in that forum need to be approved, or is it just my computer?
Yes, read the stickied topic about SPAM bots ...
Ahh, I don't know how I failed to see that, seeing as I've read that thread countless times. :\ Thanks for the answer.
Er, why was B L U E banned? He seemed like a good member...
I think you're mixing up Blue with B L U E. The latter was an Italian member whose posts are limited to the Introduction forum and the Italian forum.

As for your question, the answer would still be the same for almost all banned members. High level of warnings prior to the final ban.
If we behave good, do warning levels ever go down, or not at all?
That's been discussed before - it's extremely rare for a Warning to be revoked/lowered, but not impossible. It is usually not done because it is essentially unnecessary - the warning will not appreciate over time, and you should know better than to require another one.

¿Donde está mi Kendama thread? I now understand that threads in the GD forum are moderated, but it's been a couple of days now. Tongue_out If I sound impatient, I apologize.
why are all ur upcoming tournaments in the U.S. so focused at the East shore???
Tournaments are run by members, not the organisation itself. The members on the east coast of the USA are more active in terms of setting up tourneys, particularly people like Deikailo (she started a lot of communities around that area by driving around hosting tourneys).
Which is why it is so important for each one of us to ask ourselves this question:

"How can I best support the WBO and bladers in my own community?"

For each of us the answer to that question will be different. Some people can help by donating money, some by testing, some by designing signatures, some by answering questions (or asking really good ones!), some by serving as a distributor of imported beyblades for people too young to buy online, and some will be able to help the WBO and their community by organizing and hosting tournaments.

Hosting a tournament is a big responsibility, and not one to be undertaken lightly, but leaders must come forward from within their own communities to make it happen. You can get the ball rolling by contacting bladers in your area and starting the discussion:

"Which one of us is best suited to get a tournament going? Where would a good place for a tournament be? Can we just do a meet-up to start off with and see how much fun blading with a big group is?"

These are the kinds of conversations that each community should be having in order to move yourselves forward to the point where a tournament can be a reality.

That is only partially correct. I will augment Shabalabadoo's response for you both with 2 additional links.

Is there a requirement for age here in WBO?
