With the addition of the user pages and the messy, spammy nature of story threads, the mods have decided that from now on the user pages is where they'll go.

The mods discussed this at length, and universally agree that the user pages are the proper place for a story format to go.

Current story threads can continue, but from now on any future threads must be made in the user page. Advertise in your sig pic, in your sig text, perhaps post notifications of updates in a writing crew.

Feel free to complain here, but the choice is made.

But it's a lot harder for people to get their stories read is they're stuck in profiles only, this only will result in people getting pissed off at the mods.

Question :

Will it be locked, or deleted straight away? Also will the person who posted the story be banned?

I'm glad, I never read story threads anyway.
Now I can concentrate on why the 360 is better than the PS3 and drawing penises on pictures of people.

YES.

Good move. Story threads only ever felt like an annoyance to me. It's funny, though; This feels like the third time a new rule of "no story threads" is implemented. I hope this time it doesn't get forgotten.

Who really reads them when they're on the BBS?

Do you know how to get a coon out of a cheese box?

I'll lock with a redirect to this thread. If I can remember, I'll delete the thread once it appears in the userpage (in case the authour doesn't save it to a word processor). Repeat offenders get ye olde banstick.

Fancy a game of chess? Go here and message and/or challenge 'Zerok'.

Because my profile gets so much more traffic than the BBS.
