Tomer doesn't like review threads for some reason.

I'm in favor of starting a thread if you have something to say. Not fifty fucking threads made by Shiky where forty nine of them never have one comment.

I appreciated what Shiky did. It helped generate conversation. Also, a good majority of the threads did have comments.

It's funny that the people who claimed that the review threads back at WUMB cluttered the forums and eventually called for a separate reviews forum, suddenly support the individual issue route.

Obviously I'm not resigning (I was kidding) but it doesn't feel good being King Cole*, really.

One Discussion/Review thread per title...

I just thought of something... If we are going for the topic-per-title route, maybe it's best to put a nailed thread (locked) in each comics forum where me or the other Admin/Mods will add a link to each new thread so people will have access to them easily even when they're gone from the first page. I still don't like the topic-per-title/issue ways because people will eventually complain about them (that's my problem, not the actual existence of review threads), but this way we can keep the forums in peace and tidier.

I've never understood why people get so upset about review threads myself. Those that do complain usually don't participate anyway. It's just like when people complain about games or wrestling threads, if you don't like them, skip over them.

For the sake of not agitating the easily agitated, I suppose I agree that all discussion concerning issues from a certain title belong in one big thread.

Consensus - A view or opinion that is generally shared.

I win. And I spelled it right. Wink

I always like the individual issue model. It makes it easiest to know what issue everyone is talking about. For me, it was never really that those threads were cluttering things up, it was that they were getting pushed down out of sight by other threads and people forgot about them. If we only make threads for issues we want to talk about then there won't be as many and it shouldn't be a problem.

So on and so forth. Now, if you just want to talk about a title in general, and not specific issues, do your own thread. That's fine.

Next best, in my opinion, is a thread for each issue, as people feel the need to talk about it. Can it get cluttered? Absolutely, which is why I'd try to keep it to a thread per title. But I can understand if people want to keep issues separate.

As for what's coming out each week... www.midtowncomics.com has the best, most comprehensive list on the net. I visit them weekly, and I recommend others do the same. But if there's really a demand, maybe one of us will just start posting that list here.



I would like someone to post the books that come out for the week. Rob's weekly posting on WUMB always helped me put my list together

Anyone can take this chore on himself (if they have time) by using Midtown Comics or Diamond's website. The only problem with the latter is that they publish the final release list only on Tuesday. I know that most of us at PoP! use Midtown.

Well don't. The powers that be have already asked Shiky not to. They said they're going to figure something out that won't clog the boards with useless crap no one looks at. will keep everyone happy.

What Po-Joe and I are talking about aren't reviews. It's a weekly thread listing what books are shipping.

It can't be found, but for a long time at WUMB Rob have posted the list every week for the benefit of the WUMBers. That's a good tradition we're welcoming here.

I come here for 3 reasons:

1. The Reviews, in which many of you have seen the ones I posted first with small horribly written paragraphs underneath and silly scores...

2. Shiky's list of "who buys what"...I love showing what an A-hole I am by buying every Marvel book and every Batman/Superman/Green Lantern book there is and being broke and loving it?!

3. The "Trades" post that was like 80 threads deep...I loved it...I used to write so many silly reviews on there that I'm suing WUMB for losing all my work, those jerks!

Is it okay to occassionally start a thread about a Vertigo title in the DC area (eg. the amazingly good Unwritten) or did you guys want to set something up like you have with the regular DC books? It's just that I don't think the Vertigo books have as big a readership as the main DC books so I was just thinking a thread here and there would be okay without needing to do what you've done with the main books.

What sets Vertigo books apart from the DC ones? Start a D&R thread.
