As you command m'lord.

For the Fatherboard :D

[ordos45]

Sard said it pretty well, For the Fatherboard.  Anyhow, it would be nice to see this place on its feet once again.

[Inoculator9]

Certainly would be. Though I haven't actively done anything here in a while... I do watch it whenever possible. I'll see if I can do anything.

My efforts to bring back specific members with Espionage Spinoff have failed, but established EWS and Dragoon Knight, both of whom are now starting their own threads. I'm still posting (and remaining, unlike Ex. Pity, that) and trying to keep it up.

Of course The God Emperor's Dune is gone and locked now; but I'm far from finished.

[Seal89999]

Agreed,

I havent been participating in much lately but I read almost all the threads and enjoy it very much. I will get back into it soon.

I will do all I can to get more members for Fanfiction.

Well, if we need a secret weapon, there is always Sedermia. I made it last January in an attempt to get FanFiction going again (it was dead then, so I remember) but it never got off ground. :P

But I have updated it monthly since then and looks much better now than it first was. Complete with a map and castle structures, creatures, some politics, and economics. blah blah blah..

Whatever people want.

I'm sometimes too busy to join any fanfiction things.

[EWS]

I have actually enjoyed posting on Fan-fic, and find that although it is a Dune site, I find that most of the topics are very interesting, and we get our freedom.  All hail Fed2k, it is a very good site to be a member of.  Now with fanfic, I have always enjoyed reading others stories (imho true fanfic) but it has been fun.  Espionage has been good, and now starting my FF one (please join, it took me bloody ages to write all that detail) and also LOD.  With the right amount of care, this could be very popular.  Might I suggest advertising (MSN names, emails, sigs in other forums) and that may help bring more members into the boards that are Fed2k.

Mature and sensible members and topics, good topics and intersting arguments makes this forum one of the best on the net!

[Inoculator9]

Cheers EWS! And here's an idea... there is an Editing Team for modders, why not some equivalent for the most active fan fiction posters? A sort of added incentive.

[bryorama]

Count me in land-lubbers. Let me aboard the mothership.

P.S. I get my share of da booty.

[GhostHunter]

Everyone says they'll help but now comes the time where we actually do it. I'm not trying to be cruel and mean here, but we've entered a time in Fan Fiction where this could very well be the end of constant replies and the new age of miniscule participation.

[EWS]

So preach to us then Ghosty, tell us exactly what you want to happen and we shall follow!

[lowzeewee]

Hmmm...too many fics being abandoned halfway by crazy people who join so many fics at once,already knowing their time constrain,that's why I don't like Fic :)

[Anathema]

Well I don't promise anything, but maybe I'll start posting actively again in the future. When my account for the school computers works normally again...

As I said before, get everyone possible interested in Fan Fiction; go from website-to-website spreading the word of our boards. We need to get more members before we crumble.

[Inoculator9]

I repeat: there is an Editing Team for modders, why not some equivalent for the most active fan fiction posters? A sort of added incentive.

Maybe just a title representative of good and frequent fan fic posts.

[Dragoon Knight]

Alright, I've posted on a couple of Forums on other sites, promoting Fan Fiction as best as I can.

[EWS]

Just to let you know Dragoon that it will be deleted off of ps.com as the forum operates a no advertising policy.

[Navaros]

i am not terribly interested in Fan Fiction but i will tell you a major reason why i don't even *consider* posting here:

[GhostHunter]

Creativity is not bullshit, sticking to the same drawn-out boarders is.

[Navaros]

Creativity is not bullshit, sticking to the same drawn-out boarders is.

maybe i wasn't clear with what i was trying to say.

what i mean is, if i am coming to read a FICTION:  then i want to see NOTHING BUT FICTION in what i read.  not FICTION MIXED IN WITHIN WITH NORMAL STATEMENTS.  not fiction + ANYTHING "OOC".  just straight 100% FICTION period.

no point trying to read a fiction if people are going to be having "real life conversations" with each other in between posts.    it defeats the entire purpose of reading a story.

[GhostHunter]

That's something so little and no one else seems to have an issue with it.

[Navaros]

when you say "no one else" what you are really saying is:

[GhostHunter]

It becomes nessacary to due so on the premise of possible God Modding, foul play, noticable contradictions, things that could effect plot, etc; another thread for this would just pollute the board index.

[Seal89999]

That's something so little and no one else seems to have an issue with it.

Very true,

Posting small messages to modify things and make small comments is nessary to make sure the thread goes over smoothly. It is really not a big deal and if the comments bother you so much than just scroll past them without reading them.
