Well, I have already told y'all what happened to the Luxo Forums; there's a thread on it already. The site's Admin/creator did not pay the bill, and the site got taken down. She first claimed it was down due to a software glitch which was being fixed, but then she disappeared and refused to have any contact with the Mods and other members who were wanting to know what was going on, so rather than just let the whole concept of a forum devoted to discussing the works of Pixar go down the drain, some of the Mods got together and bought a new site and made a new forum. It's still in the "preliminary" phase now, open by invitation by one of the Admins only, until all the "bugs" can be worked out. There are just a few people, most of whom were invited either through Animated-News.com or through Deviantart, and we are trying it out to see where we might encounter any problems. Dash, the Admin, will let us know when the public can join up, and I'll pass it along.
By the way, I've already posted under the "Monsters, Inc." section, with my favorite character. One of the things that Dash has promised is that whiny little kids who only come on there to bash other people's characters and who can't be reasoned with will be booted off, same with spammers who post meaningless one-two word posts, rather than actual intelligent conversation.

I don't think I'll join. Just remembering all the idiots I've encountered through that site ... *shudder* I don't think it's worth the stress. I've got letters to write and a website to run anyways.

Yeah ... and I've got this worthless piece of junk comic to finish for the scholarship class so I can recieve college credits. That's due next week. At least there's only three pages left ... Anyway, I've got this person what I'd like to call a 'cling-on' who keeps talking to me as if they're my best friend and won't leave me alone. I constantly have my away message on, and as soon as one of my friends IMs me, I get that idiot attacking me. I don't like to be mean ... which is weird since I can be downright bratty at times. =P It would help to be mean to this person to scare him/her off, but I can't bring myself to do it. Sad xP

A comic?
Believe me. Had that with a guy I had in art class.

Yeah. You don't wanna know. Labyrinth-based, one-shot turned into a comic ... it's HORRIBLE. I could've done so much better but I didn't want to risk my novel stuff getting stolen, nor did I want my ideas to start out as a comic.
It's stupid- just because I draw and write I get these people who attack me and try to force me into what they think is a 'friendship' and ask for requests. I only take requests from true friends. Not 'cling-ons', lol.

Yeah, and for some reason the topics they bring up usually anger me so ... if anyone poses as me on that site, lemme know and I'll go Godspell on their arse. xD

Thought I'd join anyway, despite what I said earlier, but the confirmation thing's freaked up. Never mind. That confirmed my final decision, lol.

You must not have read my last post; Dash plans to either ban those idiots, or keep them under tight control. I know exactly the ones you're referring to, and those are the ones that *I* was referring to when I made that reference to "whiny little kids who only come on to bash other people's characters and who can't be reasoned with", in particular the "Terrible Twins" from California. I think that once the kinks get worked out, there should be far less problems than on the old board. We didn't even have as many problems on the "I-Kronos" board that preceded the "Luxo Forums", since the Admin was around then. pitbulllady
