Well I'd have to say that the primary benefit would be a place where you can have mature and diverse conversations about Nippon. But there is a "movie club" which is pretty much when the group as a whole decides on a movie, and everyone watches it, make a thread about it and discuss it later (we did this in college, and we watched a lot of good movies). As a group we'll try to support a fellow group member's thread if they decide to create one, that way if they have something that they feel is important in a thread then as a group we can add any info we have to that, and make it a "true discussion". There are a ton of other ideas those are just like a few examples. But overall we kinda want to make JF just a little bit classier. I mean you see a lot of threads there are basically the same like "I want to move to Japan" or "I'm looking for friends" and they really lack substance. What we want to do is try to encourage threads that can help people learn more about Nippon, or introduce people to newer things. I know that everyone so far has a great deal of knowledge about Nippon in one way or another, and when you add all of that up, and make the discussions more productive or Nippon oriented then you'll have a place where people can get as much information as they need without really having to ask for it, and if they have a question they can get really good answers without having to worry about sarcastic remarks. I personally will retain any information that I have for our group members, so I know that the info that I'm giving out is put to good use. I want to help people who wants to talk about and be introduced to more than just Naruto, or Dragon Ball Z. Plus MutsuYakumo knows a lot of people, and can really open some doors for people who are honestly interested in visiting Nippon. So I would say the nearly unlimited amount of information is the benefit of joining this group.
