Subscription Based Content

Post by Shadowpaw »

Everyone,

As you may have noticed, the "Odyssey Media Outlet" has been altered a bit. For the past several months, I felt that the Odyssey Media Outlet was not only improperly named, but a little overwhelming for new visitors. So after discussing with Jonathan and Evil Chick, as well as riding the wave of more organization around here, the board has been changed into a subscription based service. This way, users who do not visit particular boards do not have to worry about seeing the posts that are being made in them. It eliminates clutter and makes the board a little less intimidating for users who may be thinking about joining us.

The following boards are currently eligible for the subscription based content (and are clearly marked in The Faction List with the acronym SBC):

First Church of Odyssey
Leader: JesusFreak777
Description: At the First Church of Odyssey you'll find different ways of expressing your beliefs, finding prayer support or being encouraged through regular devotionals.

Inventor's Corner
Leader: Eugene Blackgaard
Description: Showcase your creations! Art, Fanfiction, Poetry, Movies, Audio, it all goes in here!

OBC-Channel 24
Leader: forever_faithful
Description: For the readers of OBC-Channel 24!

The Town Hall
Leader: STRYPER
Description: The faction for those who love to debate!

The Gamers Clan
Leader: Eon Spitfire EK V2.exe
Description: The gamers clan - devoted to nothing but video games. Whether it be PC, console, or handheld... Come join the fun and hang out with the gamers of the Town of Odyssey!

This change may take a little bit to adapt to, but it is done in the interest of attracting new visitors and accomodating current ones who feel a little intimidated by the large number of boards in which they have little or no interest. So please, bear with us! :)

Fine by me! :)
Dosen't really affect anyone, just moves thinga around for less clutter. Well done Shadowpaw. ;)

Say, we're the new admins behind any of this as well? If they deserve some credit, I'll give it to them as well. \:D/

*EDIT* Good job to all admins. We love you. :inlove:

Ahem... copy and paste error ;). Yes, EB is the leader of that board.

And I had discussed this idea with both Bmuntz/Catspaw and Jonathan/Evil Chick, both seemed fine with it... though B/C didn't want to step on the new administration toes at the time, because it was right at the end of their term, and didn't want to make drastic changes shortly before a new team came to power.

Indeed! The marraige of Shadowpaw and CA will make things easier! With CA distracting Shadowpaw, it will be that much easier for Top and I to take over the board! \:D/

Good thing Jonathan and EC are on our side. They're the ones who got CA and SP hooked up in the 1st place! :inlove:

I'm sure that once we get used to the changes, we'll wonder why we ever liked the old ways! :D (I'm just guessing here). ;)
