Bring back the writings sharing forum thing

[FlyingJesus]

The articles subforum was merged with Discuss Anything just under a year ago because it just wasn't getting used. Joey's "Teenage Lives" or whatever he'd called it was read quite often but other than that it saw perhaps 2 threads a week, if that (and let's face it most wasn't great quality). Whilst it'd be nice to have a decent writing community, this lack of activity and the fact that articles as a department had to close due to no-one actually reading it means that you're probably best off just posting any work in DA.

Aww I think A Habbox Book Club type thing would be nice n cute. Maybe it could be something literally like that. Like the Pixel Artist Group - you join it and see a few extra forums and stuff. Could easily do it for literature and writing based things. It would be nice to see, but as previously said its all dependent on demand.

That's a fairly good point but I'm not sure everyone down in Discuss Anything would like to read our works. I'll admit nothing is going to be of great quality, but what do you expect from a teenage forum based around a chat room. Another thing, it's better for it to actually be of bad or downright horrible quality, so that we can be criticised and learns.

Just another thought, not only should creative/opinionative things be posted there. But people could have help with their essays and just get general writing or reading tips.

Sounds like a great idea to me given the right support. I would certainly use it.

[Caution]

seems a good idea, i would use it.

[flatface]

I'm not very good at writing, but it would be intresting to read and comment on other peoples work

[Mikey]

Yeah, sounds like a good idea.

[VelvetClover]

I think this is a great idea, I write frequently and I love writing and I love books. I'd certainly post in the forum if it was created.

If you stopped writing in purple when you can't read a word of it on the dark skin, then maybe I would read the crap that you come out with. But you never write anything which is good in the first place so for me to highlight it is even more effort and your not worth that much
