I have nothing against users making their fanfiction stories, it is fine to share them with everyone else but it should be done in one thread, one main thread only for the sharing of fan-made stories and opinions on them.

This problem is kind of like that other problem we had with advertising Lets Plays, to solve it all the LP threads are locked and a separate thread was made for them to share Amnesia LP's in the Custom Story Discussion board.

So, I'm asking that we make a (mega)thread for all the fan made stories that users want to share. So we can enjoy reading them in a more organized and spam free environment.

Thank you for reading.

No.
Just no, it won't work, has never worked on other forums and generally just leads to them never getting posted.

a subforum seems like a much better idea, but probaly there won't be one in the next time, because most of the subforums don't get accepted. but i don't know, @admins/mods, what do you think about it?

on the other side, i don't really care about all the threads, if they're longer, an own thread seems ok to me. and btw, didn't someone just create a collection-thread like this? O.o

the DoW2 forums had a "Fan Central" which was pretty much a forum for RP's, fanfiction, some lore stuff etc.
