Request New Board: Horror

Karl Hungus · 2003-01-25 18:39:11

Would it be possible if we could get a 'Horror' board? Public board. Under the SciFi/Fantasy section if possible? This being for discussion of all things Horror related. Not Just films! Books Comics Games Music (Soundtracks etc...) I think it would be a great addition to the arts section of boards, and will be the centre…

Not Just films!
Books
Comics

I think it would be a great addition to the arts section of boards, and will be the centre of MUCHOS discussionos.

Yes?

Actualy, I just thought of something!

With the amount of Buffy Nuts on this board, it'd be a great addition.
Thanks for the support so far, it looks like it might be a hit!!!

Ah, if you read my Zombie Thread in the films board, you'd know the lenths I went to get a lot of stuff.

Cant say I read much as a kid, what with certain learning difficulties...
But I do tend to read a lot now.

Ever read any Poppy Z. Brite?

Ah yes, I've got some of his stuff knocking about here for years.

Pity, though... Like most great writers he's gone well downhill.
First Necroscope was his best, I though.
Must read that again.
Friend of mine nicked it off me, along with Salem's Lot.

Pff! Tell that to some of those creeps with 5 boards!

And nothing ever really goes on in the West, or LOTR boards.
And all I have hassle wise in Rock/Metal is the occasional muppet, and the bits of advertising in the wrong places.

Pfft, it's obvious I should be mod, when I come with ideas like this
Instead of the "HORROR" forum, we could call it......
THE "MINDY CLARKE" FORUM.
Just because.

AW... dont get on my tits now.... you posted that at 18:36 last night (saturday night...) I'm reading this at 11 am on Sunday morning). So I'm not your fnckin lackey to tend your every need and you may sit on IRC all night but I was out with mates.

I dont care if you dont see any reason why it shouldnt happen, as it happens that decision rests soley with the Admins, and I'll keep my own counsel on its creation and its moderator. Do you mind? Oh thanks!

Grrrr....

Yes as it happens, I'm gonna use it for 'blog material later tonight probably.... My head hurts. If Thead gives you stuff with gold in it, dont drink it. :^/

Yes. Gold. The metal.

ps: I'm going to edit your sig into something more tidy as its unbelievely annoying when you post one line answers... I wont cut anything though.

Ah yes! Goldschlager!

Lovely stuff!

But next time you're in Galway, I'll give you something a LOT more potent than that.
Put it this way, Dav couldn't drink it, and Ronan nearly passed out from it.
Can you guess what it is yet?

I'll get to my sig now.

Um... why are people presuming that AW is going to be Mod?
Because he suggested the forum?

It doesnt work like that.... I'm tired saying that.
In fact... we're trying to promote new mods rather then building super-mods.... you were all newbies one day...

I'd agree with you there Dev.
I remember suggusting the Band/Musicians board, and I never expected to mod the place at all.

And I dont want anyone thinking that I just suggested this so I 'COULD' have the 4th moderatorship. Because, if I wanted that, all I'd have to do was ask a few peons to endorse a private board.

Hmm...
Sounds like a plan.

But seriously, IF it does go ahead I would like to mod it because of my knowledge of the genre in general. And because of my love for it. NOT because I want to be 4 star general. :rolleyes: As some people might suggest.

What I'm REALLY after is +o in #nerds.
