No way would I ever attempt to post something intelligent in there. No offense to Flood goers.
Well then, stop asking for a forum. Because there is one for this kind of thing, and you simply don't want to post in it.General Literature is a focused subject. I have never seen a fanfiction submitted there. And when someone posts something Halo related they get chastised. My opinion remains, it would be a great addition.
You know, there are more fan fictions than just Halo-fics. You might want to check the "Flood Library" once in awhile.
That brings me to my main point. We don't need a new forum for fan-fics. All we need is one thread with links to all the fan fics of that forum. That way people can go through and pick and choose which fan fic they want without having to search through endless pages of either meaningless drivel, or meaningless fan fics.
And this doesn't have to be Mod instituted. ChiChi made that thread, I assume, on a whim. If you want a place to put all your fan fics, or to have others put theirs, then make a thread...just try not to copy ChiChi word for word.Yes, I do know there are more than just Halo fanfictions. But here, how many?
A lot. Like I said, check the "Flood Library."
Who is ChiChi? I wasn't asking this to be mod instituted. I was just throwing this idea out there; there needs to be SOME kind of solution. And would a new forum not be suited? I would imagine it to be one of the better forums. I also planned to create a guide to fanfiction writing, presentation, submission, etc. with the help of others to cut down the 'endless drivel'
The fact is, we don't need a new Forum. It's a nice idea, but it just seems like overkill. It would be much easier if we just had a thread in each Forum for fan fics of that particular kind, be it Halo, Old school, or none of the above (Flood). That way if you want to read a certain type of fan fic, you just go to that Forum and look in the thread.
It's much simpler and more efficient than having Achronos, or whoever, waste their time creating a whole new Forum.
