In a more serious tone, if I had the power to get rid of these crap threads, there would be a purging the likes of which most forums have never seen.
The best thing to do as I see it right now is to bring back the old format of one story thread and one feedback thread, fill the first pages of fanfic with well written stories etc. maybe bring back character/poetry nights, talk more about writing in general. Let these new guys learn from our influence. Maybe in a few months we can think about those fan fic awards, though its best to be careful with those since that was the reason I left in the first place.... On a happier note, I'll see if I can put up a story or something soon. I was re-reading Patches the other day and maybe I can do something with that???? I'll bump it if anyone is interested... Cheese, lady m, and anyone else I may be forgetting, hello!!! How have you all been?
drops this crap here and leaves -- Night toe-steps lightly in On red stepping-stone clouds Swirling rich-blue streaks across Fading sunset-hued evening skies
@Pheonix I don't think I'll ever live that down... It's tied to my old iPod. Way back when we could first go online I did something???? So that I couldn't see the normal online version, just the regular version seen on the iPod. Couldn't edit posts or anything fun like that, couldn't figure out how to undo it. I could always make a new writers café thread, but then there's so much history tied to this one...
