Welcome!
If you are viewing this video, you have
likely been recruited to join the chinafake
community!
This video will cover everything you need
to know about chinafakes, the community,
and most importantly why you're here!
(Feel free to pause on a slide if you need
more time to read it)
First, let's talk about what a chinafake is.
Chinafakes are bootleg/offbrand toys
(though they aren't always directly ripping
off anything in particular) manufactured
somewhere in China (though sold all over
the world) In other words, FAKES from
CHINA. You have been reached out to
because we think you would be a good fit
for this community, either because you
have or at least have access to some, or
because you seem interested in them.
Now that we've got that out of the way,
let's discuss how YOU can get involved.
There are several ways you can contribute
to the community, including but not
limited to:
- Reselling stock from a store near you
- Collecting
- Researching
- Making wiki pages
And much, much more!
There are two main areas the community
gathers in;
- The wiki, a repository of information on
these toys.
- The Discord server, a place to chat with
other members and do research.
I'll tell you how to join both of those places
in a second, but first there are a few rules I
want to go over.
1. Don't be a jerk.
This community prohibits racism, sexism,
homophobia, etc. No discrimination of
ANYONE based on race, gender, religion,
sexual preferences, etc. JUST BECAUSE
SOMETHING ISN'T LISTED HERE DOESN'T
MEAN IT'S OK TO MAKE FUN OF.
2. No listing snipes.
If someone announces they're going to
buy a particular listing online, DO NOT
PURCHASE IT. If you are going to buy
something, announce it and check to make
sure no one else was planning on getting
it first.
3. No drama.
We've had issues with this in the past (hell,
even I'm guilty of it) so PLEASE do not
bring up existing drama or start new
drama within the community. If something
a member is doing needs attention or if a
member has done something bad in the
past, notify a moderator instead of posting
it publicly.
4. No doxxing (sharing personal info
without consent)
This one is self-explanatory. Fake/joke
doxxes (as in a made up IP or location) are
fine.
5. Do not harass moderators.
We're all doing our best here, please do
not pester us unless the situation is urgent
or someone needs immediate removal
from the server. If someone is breaking the
rules or causing trouble and it is not
urgent, notify a moderator once and we
will take care of it within 24 hours.
Now, let's go over how to join the
community. The wiki can be found at:
https://chinafake.wiki
If you have a Miraheze account already,
you should be able to log in with it there.
The Discord server can be found at:
https://discord.gg/CHVErNV99d
If you have a Discord account, you should
just be able to join using it.
Alternatively, QR codes will be shown in
just a moment.
