[QUOTE="Lela, post: 1317034, member: 1216"] There is the Yahoo Group for plain discussion, if you like that medium. As a side note, since you bring up extra threads, there's already one for those that want pure story. I assume whoever opened it (the name escapes me at the moment) posts there soon after Sep drops an update? In any case, that would be three active threads and a Yahoo group. Two message board threads would be for Story only, one just for comments, and the group for ongoing discussion for those astoundingly obsessed individuals. [img]http://www.enworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif[/img] Somehow I doubt a person who casually drops the word ephemeral doesn't have something intelligent to say. [img]images/smilies/wink.gif[/img] Really, though, one of the lesser reasons I read Story Hours is due to their personalities. Old One and the sense of politics mixed wth the scent of death, Dr. Midnight and his players provide one of the most unique SH experiences I've ever had, and Gfunk/JollyDoc's adds a distinct flavor to the Dr. M model. Arwink with his Yips; Capellon and Morte along with Kull and Gnoric. Tons of others. There's more than just Story to these threads. If there wasn't, I wouldn't bother. I can get Story from a library and I don't have to fight for time online. It's that extra bit of character that draws me to Story Hours. And, I think, that character is lost when there's a major pruning. Horacio was right, the bumps really are part of a Story Hour. I just think the actual comments are too. In the end, my desire to post is somewhat tempered by the fact that the author doesn't care enough to save the feedback for those first coming in and fellow readers who sometimes resent my even posting. I'll save my in depth comments for Story Hours where it's worth the time (c'mon Gfunk, [i]update![/i]). And Axe, feel free to say something. I'll garantee a meaningfull response. [img]images/smilies/wink.gif[/img] [Edit/Meta] Those Image tags ( [img] ) should be my smilies, which seem to be popping in and out. *Shrug* it happens.][/img] [/QUOTE]
