Snapedom

Come and join in the fun! Despite the name threesomes and moresomes are more than welcome! The rules are linked in the sign up posts below, please read them prior to signing up as they have changed since last year. If you need help with developing prompts lore and I will be in chat for several more hours tonight and I'll be in chat most of the day tomorrow. Sign ups originally were going to end the 15th, but lore is considering extending the deadline until the 16th. Either way the deadline is looming so hurry over! :D

Administrivia:

I am now the maintainer of snapedom. I couldn't bear to see it go under, even though it's not as lively as it used to be just post-DH.

I don't expect I'll be making large changes to the rules or operations, except one: I'm considering turning off anonymous comments. I've tested posting comments with OpenID and it works fine for LJ and Dreamwidth accounts, so as long as you have an LJ (or DW) account you could still post comments. Or I might possibly set the ability to comment to members-only, which works well on another community I maintain where the subject tends to attract trolling. This hasn't been changed yet, I'm just thinking about it. Discussion welcome.

Also, I asked sylvanawood if she wanted to pass the LJ community (which has been closed since 2008) over to me as well, because if so I was thinking of maybe reopening it.

ETA: Snapedom will be run by someone else, it won't be shut down. We'll keep you posted about the details.


I've never made a secret out of it: this community is not moderated. People were supposed to settle their differences among themselves, like adults do. Obviously this is not possible.

And I don't have the time any more.

I can't constantly look over posts, deal with bombastic complaints from people 'from journalfen' who find this or that behaviour intolerable, have to read pompous advice from 'moderate fandom wankers' who wouldn't recognize sarcasm if it bit them in the arse and I can't always watch your posts for possible racism, sexism, whatnotism.

No one reads the rules. No one respects the rules.

Many valued members have left long ago, tired of the wank. I'm getting tired, too. I don't have time for this, I never did but it's not getting better over time.

So, if someone here wants to run the site, mail me, I'll hand it over. You do what you want, I'm not associated with it any longer. Otherwise the site will close on July 31st.
And no, I don't welcome comments on this.
