And you can toodle around the threads on the Spankwagon.

Reckon it would look something like this...

That'd work. Or this, for the camp effect:

Some folks might not agree with that. I admit I sounded snarky with what I got slapped for, but I didn't know how to state it better.

Well, this still isn't the time or place to debate anyone's merits for a hypothetical job that won't be up to the general populace of the board to choose anyway.  Let's try to stay on topic so Fred will get useful info out of this.

New spoiler tags are cool. I  like the chat also. 


It's already been mentioned but prettty please keep Media Favorites!! I loved that section especially with the sticky-d threads "Media that mentions Jim Butcher" and "Good funny websites".


Edit: Thanks for keeping Media Favorites and teh great sticky threads.  Also, I like the new organization scheme.  Pretty awesome.

If you know ahead of time that what you're going to communicate is "snarky" or will irritate the board moderators, you should consider rewriting it or not writing it at all.

Thank you for all the work done on this, it's an impressive new set-up.

With this many new divisions, I'm finding it hard to envision precisely what-all might be left in the general "Friendly Pub" space. 

Also, would it be considered reasonable to post in two sub-boards if you have something that seems to fit in both places - for example, if you find a totally awesome Dr. Who fanvid on youtube, would putting a link both in It Came from The Internets and in the Dr. Who thread in Media Favourites be considered OK ?
Mildly OCD. Please do not troll.

"What do you mean, Lawful Silly isn't a valid alignment?"

kittensgame, Sandcastle Builder, Homestuck, Welcome to Night Vale, Civ III, lots of print genre SF, and old-school SATT gaming if I had the time.  Also Pandemic Legacy is the best game ever.

Favorite places...lolcatz, Media Favorites, and anything to do with Reader's Art (beading, photography,writing).  And Weird, because it was a place that accepts weird blue people like me.

PS:  I am really digging how the site is looking and think the end result will be great!   :)

No, I'd prefer one post. You can post something in a secondary board with a link to the primary thread, I suppose, but I'd prefer something that *doesn't* cause further post proliferation. Dr. Who seems pretty clearly a Media Favorites topic, to comment on the specific case. :)

One more forum I'd like to see...  Something for our other hobbies...  SCA, knitting, geocaching, cosplay, gardening, sewing, etc...  other ways for the community to connect. 

Thanks for the opportunity.

There's "I Made An Art" under the Community heading. I've seen a crocheting/knitting thing there.

Most of those things would fit in the "Art" area. SCA is an interesting one, tho. Maybe the game den? Story of us? Ditto geocaching. :)

I'd say that'd fit under "Story of Us."  Title of "SCAdians Unite," or some such.

Yeah the SCA should be a Story of Us rather than a game.  Also including, Calling All ScAdians, maybe?

Also, is the virtual gallery able to be saved somewhere, like in I made an art?

*raises hand*  I second Blaze's request.  There was some awesome stuffs in there. 

And I'd also like to say Fred, thanks for all your hard work and the many second chances we get.

The Virtual Gallery has been moved to the Display Case.
