Ooops. Thanks, Jon.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Does Point Pleasant actually have an air date and everything?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yes -- Thursdays at 9, come January 20th.
However, I think it needs more than that to warrant a thread -- Buffista interest in the actual show, and some sort of pickup would be nice.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Yeah, I would strongly discourage proposing a thread at least until it's been on for a few episodes.

Agreed -- I don't want to start a thread for something that might suck, be gone in a month, or both. I was just asking out of personal curiosity, becauuse I hadn't heard anything about the show.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
This may have been answered a thousand times, my memory is getting really wonky...can we speculate about The Inside in Minearverse? Is that just post n' watch?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't see why one can't speculate about The Inside there -- it's the thread for his stuff, after all.

I'm with LJ. I was wondering where discussion would take place because I think I'm going to start watching it but I'm skeptical given the descriptions I've read.

Here's the e-mail WX just sent me as a forum owner:
There are some important changes afoot at World Crossing, and we wanted you to be the first to know the details about our work to improve it. This will affect both you and your forum members.
We want to continue to maintain World Crossing, develop new features, and improve the servers. But in order to do that, we need your help to bring World Crossing closer to funding itself on an ongoing basis. You have probably noticed more advertising than we've had in the past, and that has helped, but it's not enough to do what we need to.
So as of December 5, 2004, World Crossing will have two tiers of membership: free (with ads), and Premium (paid, no ads). Everyone will receive a weeklong Premium trial membership at no charge which will expire at midnight on December 12, 2004.
Premium membership costs around $1/month ($12/year) - less if you purchase two years upfront ($20/2 years). Premium members get:
- A small star icon next to their names
- No advertising
- Unlimited posts per day (free accounts are limited to 10/day)
- User pictures
- Option to "remember me" to avoid relogging in each time you visit
- Privileges (for Hosts) to move messages
- Future Premium perks currently in the planning stages
You can become a Premium member by clicking the link in your Preferences page, or by clicking on the small ad in the upper left corner of the forum pages. You can pay using PayPal, or send us a check. Once you are a Premium member, you can use the Holidays as an excuse to buy Premium gift memberships for all your friends at World Crossing!
So, for approximately the cost of a can of soda out of a vending machine, or less than a cup of coffee, you can enjoy a month of advertising-free World Crossing plus help us make this place even better. Isn't that worth it?
