Hello, everyone! I wanted to give a brief community update to make sure we're all on the same page.
First off, I updated the community
profile to include rules for posting, sample fic headers, and a few other things. The rules for posting were previously non-existent because when I first started the community I was new to LJ and didn't really know what I was doing. This is my fault, I apologize. But I went back through the old posts, cleaned some things up, and gave us a shiny new set of rules. I know you're all bouncing out of your chairs with excitement.
The most important rule I added was the one about including a rating in fic headings. LJ has a history of deleting accounts, and I don't want ours to be one of them! Please include ratings and warnings in your post headings!
Second, I would like to ask if anyone is good with html. I'd love to get a new TBC-themed background/header, because the current one is insanely boring. Please drop me a line if you're interested. I'm also looking for someone who might be interested in creating banners for the community so that we can display them in our individual profiles and spread the TBC love.
Third, I started a new community for TBC drabbles called
tbc100 . I'll be giving weekly prompts for 100-150 word drabbles. If you want to write TBC fics but don't want to write an entire fic, then you can practice with drabbles! I've participated in other drabble comms and they're lots of fun, for readers and writers. So please stop by, join the comm, and suggest some prompts.
I think that's it. Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for improving this community. I'm open to new ideas.
Oh, and would anyone be interested in fic challenges? Is anyone even still reading this? :)
ETA: I also want to welcome
twbasketcase as the new co-maintainer/mod for the community. She'll be helping me keep shop and encouraging the Bender love. :)
ETA, take two: D'oh! Gave the wrong link for the community profile. Fixed now.
