haha yeah I wondered the same thing..I thought I was just blind and couldn't find it coz I couldn't see any discussion about it anywhere!
"I always considered myself a loner. I mean, not like a poor-me, Byron-esque, I-should-have-broughta-swimming-buddy loner. I mean the sort of person who doesn’t feel too upset about the prospect of a weekend spent seeing no one, and reading good books on the couch. It wasn’t like I was a people hater or anything. I enjoyed activities and the company of friends. But they were a side dish. I always thought I would also be happy without them."

I definitely agree with the general and life board merging, cause the distinction is kinda arbitrary and it seemed to be causing alot of unnecessary work for the staff

But I still think fan fiction deserves its own board, or at least should be merged back with the animorphs fan fiction. Since the General is so big now itll be really easy to lose good stories and it will be really hard to sort through all the random threads to actually find any of the fictions

Just a thought

Yeah, I don't agree with the removing of the Fanfiction board AT ALL.

Sometimes I like to go find a good Fic to read, and its WAY easier when they're not muddled up with regular posts, cause now nobody will know what's a fanfic/story and what's just a regular post.

Getting rid of the Life board was fine, but I have to 100% disagree with this new change.

would it be possible to have the general fan-fic and the ani fan-fic on one section? like in a fan-fic and RP section, containing all the ani fan-fic, non ani fan-fic and all the RP's?

I have to agree with the people disagreeing with the change.  :P

My One Big Reason: Any ongoing fan-fictions and RPG's are now almost guaranteed to be interrupted by people that think they're discussion threads. I've already had that happen when the distinction was comparatively clear between boards, and it pretty much threw off my whole thread.  :-\
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

Whose idea was this?  Seriously, we need a general fanfic board.  I've already voiced my opinions about having fanfic as a sub-board of roleplays or vice versa (and for those of you who didn't read that particular post, my opinion was that I didn't like it), and this is way, way worse.  Please please please change it back?
