It's been probably a year since we had a proper mod post, and after all the "excitement" of SM Town Live in LA, I figure now is a good time to make one. As usual, the regular bullet points.

The Graceful 4 Network as a Whole:
When we first started the G4N in 2008, there was pretty much no organized fan base of CSJH. There was UnSpeakable, but they were on a hiatus. We were lucky enough to begin with Graceful Subs and grow alongside CSJH popularity, mainly with their Japanese activities. Since launch the G4N now includes: GracefulSubs-KR, GracefulSubs-JP, Elegance Forums, Eternal-Shapley and TSZX News. We've had many volunteers and staff along the way who have helped build the network and make a base for CSJH activities.

Fast-forward to today, there are probably two versions of each of the original G4N sites. Instead of trying to be competition, we will be restructuring the G4N to work more efficient and allow others who have more time to work on other sections.

GracefulSubs KR and JP:
Although these are the "flag ship" sites of the G4N, if no new material is released by the girls, they will remain dormant. On another note, both accounts have been flagged/ banned by Japanese and Korean networks. If either account is deleted we will not be bringing it back. To be perfectly honest, many of the files have been lost over the years or the video quality had died.

Elegance Forums:
Elegance was meant to be a replacement for UnSpeakable. When it was first launched it was successful. Now, it is pretty much dead. Due to this, we will be closing it on October 1. We would like to keep it open, but it would make no sense to entice people to sign-up to a ghost town forum. In the post below, you can find information about an alternative website.

Eternal-Shapley:
Eternal-Shapley will remain up, but since there are no new audio or video files, it will remain as it. We do not want to be big proponents of illegal downloading, so if a file dies or does not work, we will not re-upload it. Buy the media or look to other site to find it.

TSZX News:
As you may have noticed, we are "killing" off many of the sites of the G4N. The one that will remain is TSZXN. Instead of spreading across six different sites, most activity and energy will be devoted to TSZXN. The same guidelines as before apply: we will not post random photos or Cyworld updates just to take up space. As a new procedure, any post not really important to pertaining to the girls will be directly linked to the Twitter and no post will be made here. This includes general SM news that mentions the girls for maybe a line or two.

We will be switching to a "Lina-Dana-Sunday-Stephanie" updating scheme versus general CSJH. For those who monitor the tags, they may have noticed the increase in the individual names. This is to keep their "solo" activities divided and easily accessible.

A special case is Stephanie. We will not be posting any pictures of her that come from Facebook, especially if the Facebook is closed. Cyworlds are open to the public, but if a Facebook page is closed and somehow someone found a picture of Stephanie, we will not impede on someone else's privacy by posting the picture.

---

In a nutshell the G4N will now be TSZXN and the G4N Twitter. We're happy all the various channels helped improve the popularity of the girls and spread news internationally, but we are at the point where our staff have real lives and have other obligations. Thanks to everyone who submits information and uses the services we have provided for the past two years. We'll continue to be the base of international CSJH news.

New layout for TSZXN will be functional around the end of September, beginning of October

(As a final side note, we realize other people want to help spread the news of the girls, but do not take our content and remove credits. We may not have 1,000 followers on Twitter or 100k site visits, but we do have enough followers to show we get our info first. It's not that hard to give us credit).
