Chatterbox: Down to Earth
SO, like Young
SO, like Young Writer, Everinne's post got me thinking. So, how 'bout we all work together to try to make the CB more like the peaceful place it used to be before?

@Forrest
I came on in July too...... just in time for everything to change.... *sigh* Not that newbies are bad..... Yeah. What all of you guys said.

Yeah, I remember you Young Writer. I used to read the Chatterbox, but
I never posted. We used to strictly use the categories right:
BaB, we used to only talk about the books we read, we didn't do Book Quote Games, and such.
Inkwell, was for, writing games, RR, RP, RPG, things like that.
PP, used to be for talking about painting, drawing, -- and the Ski Lodge, of coarse.
DtE, we used to talk about thinks, that were happening in our life, and world matters.
CaC, we used to only talk to the Buggies.
This Month, we only used to talk about this month's mag.

I think we should all follow this rough guideline. However, small change: I think book quote games do belong on BaB. Inkwell is super crowded already, and if we add games then it will bring down "real" writing that deserves to be at the top. Also, just a question -- where (should) SIs go?
Maybe Admin could make a special new place for games, like SIs, similar-to-the-ski-lodge games (such as CAMM, RMS Humbug, etc.), book quote/song quote games, etc. They don't technically belong anywhere.
I've just passed your suggestion along to the editors, Air. For now, it seems to me that Pudding's Place may be the most appropriate place for SIs and ski-lodge type dramas, since they involve acting.

I hate to stir this thread up, but what about the clubs?
(February 19, 2015 - 7:35 am)
We should form a little group, like MCBMP (Make CB More Peaceful). Can I help?

OKAY!! Since plenty of us seem interested, let's start a CBIC! Or, a
Chatterbox Improvement Community. And, S.E is right. It won't seem the
same, not without Red and Melody and all those wonderful oldies. So, we
are simply going to try and put a litle less nonsense onto the CB, and
more well meaning and thoughtful posts. It isn't exactly like trying to
make it old again, we are just going to improve it. Can someone
think of a pledge? And, we will NOT completely eliminate nonsense and
fun, they will only be kept to certain threads. Also, if everything
results in arguing, we will stop. So, who agrees?
(February 19, 2015 - 11:56 am)
Aye. Though, fun should be in every post, just a bit, -erp- not as crazy?

Who here is an in-betweener? I know me, Cayke, and Forrest for sure... Winter? Savvy? I've always thought of you as in-betweeners, but...?

To summarize the change from old CB to new CB in terms of good I think we could say it used to be more philosophical, now it's more creative. Thoughts?
