Revision as of 14:20, 11 February 2011
Kumizone is the website which you are reading right now. For a period of time it was known as Kawachan, because it was being hosted on kawachan.org and formed the only part of the Kawachan website. Kawachan was named after Kawase, and was initially created as a Kusaba chan board, whereas Kumizone was named after another of Kawase's nicknames, with the "zone" being a long-since-forgotten pun on the Sonic series. On its third anniversary, February 18, 2011, it was will be officially renamed back to Kumizone and be hosted at kumizone.org for the first time. This is so that Kawachan can refer specifically to the software that Kumizone runs on, as opposed to the website.
Beginnings
Kumizone came about on February 18, 2008. It was originally intended to be a parody of ED, though over time it devolved into a place to write about whatever rubbish some bored people pull out of thin air on a sleepless night. Though it was born from a hilarious MSN multiconvo between Kawase, Keiji, Sara and James, the latter two didn't stick around due to being way too busy, and Kawase eventually shied away later. Recently, the more active users are User:KasaneTeto, User:Chao, User:Neko Kohaku and of course User:Keiji.
Even while Kumizone was called Kawachan, the term Kumizonian remained - because "Kawachanian" would just sound silly. Now, with the imminent split/move, it finally makes sense again.
One word story
The one word story is a free, online, instant-access non-game created by Team Ikaria. It is the sauce of much win on this site. On April 4, 2009, the one word story from was transferred from Team Ikaria to Kawachan as it fits better here, and as all Dumbledore content needs to eventually be moved to Gollum.
Unfortunately, due to not actually being used by sensible people (And only one person known to use it), it's now full of crap. It might be rebooted one day, but it's not a priority.
Team Ikaria is the successor to Fusion Global and is guaranteed to not change name again due to the PLH under http://teamikaria.com/dl/. The website was created in January 4, 2008. It scrapped the entire legacy of Fusion Global and previous websites, introducing a new account system and several mini-websites. However, the only websites that used this account system and are actually open for public use are the fileshare and the one word story, the latter of which was recently moved to Kawachan. It was the first website in the series to validate as XHTML, mainly due to how all previous work was scrapped.
Higher Dimensions
On November 15, 2008, the Tetraspace forum from http://alkaline.org/ was moved to Team Ikaria. Keiji had been an moderator of that website since 2003, an administrator since 2005 and the site's main maintainer since 2008 when Alkaline all but left due to being busy in real life. Alkaline's server gave plenty of unexplainable 500 and 403 errors on the forum, so Keiji finally decided to move it to Team Ikaria. As time went by, the forum evolved into the Higher Dimensions forum, which also has a wiki of its own.
Ever since the TI website had first been published, its main purpose had been established as a file-hosting website called the TI fileShare, or TIS for short. This has remained the staple of TI ever since. There are ongoing plans to merge the Vocaloid Collection (TIVC) with the fileshare, as it has already been generalized into the Nanako Resource Browser.
Suspected hacking
On July 16, 2009, Keiji discovered to his horror that a number of files on the fileshare have had their tags corrupted, and duplicate files with different hashes have appeared. He suspected that this could only be due to a hacking attempt such as an SQL injection or compromised passwords. In response, the fileshare has been put under lockdown, meaning that files can still be searched for and viewed, but people cannot log in to edit or upload files. In addition, access to Rageboard has been strictly restricted to developers, and database passwords have been changed.
On July 23, 2009, Keiji looked further into the issue, and discovered that it was actually not a hacking attempt. It was, in fact, all due to a bug in the thumbnailer he recently developed for the fileshare - he had forgotten to write two very important lines. He has now fixed this bug and removed the lockdown. However, Rageboard remains under HTTP Authentication, as it should really always have been.
