Literature forum

It's not because it doesn't include me I did find it quite amusing though in the literature section when a lot of the people who were saying the section would be a good addition then started posting that they don't actually write ...

Well its not all about writing - it's about literature too. Anyway it might encourage more members to get involved in Literature and creative writing so that's a positive I feel.

hehe I write. Problem is, need to write something worth posting first -sigh-

Honestly, it may be popular with a few people but I don't think it is for a lot of people lol, I can see it being used for a few weeks just so people can encourage it a bit but it looks like it's being forced to be used just because it's a new addition, I don't think it'll be popular as I'm seeing the same people making threads and keeping it alive but I might be wrong cause I don't really know what it's used for other than books, now Anime practically has it's own forum I'm not interested in reading other people's stuff, I've seen things posted before and they get very few replies, if people can be bothered to read others works then fair enough but I don't know

There's a limit to how many "do you think [book name] is good?" and "post your favourite [book/author/genre]" threads you can have which will have an audience of more than maybe 5 people (or indeed have any true discussion spark off it), so having writers would be quite useful. The problem with most creative writing threads is that people are either too worried about coming across as nasty to give constructive criticism or the writers themselves are unable to accept any, which is what happened with the old articles forum. Hopefully the writers of old are 1) still around and 2) mature enough now for this to actually work.

It will only be used for a week.

It will only be used for a week.

Aye. Maybe is just the pessimist in me but I didn't really see the whole forum crying out for it like with the anime forum. I hope I'm wrong but if that happens, I called it

This post is dedicated to FlyingJesus, whose dying wish was for people to moan about the changes.

Only time will tell; it's better to have forum management who will actually try things and then alter as and when it's necessary rather than just never trying anything like previous regimes.
