I'm curious to know if it might liven this place up a bit if we would embrace people posting single matches, instead of expecting full cards out of everyone? Obviously, we need to do something in here.
What can we do to liven the place up?

Wars Well a new Mod would be a good start, someone who leads by example and posts shows, but yeah maybe thats a good way to go. Once my shoulder heals up fully maybe thats what I'll do but obviously we need to reboot this place.

IMO, I don't think a mod is necessary, at the moment, let alone a new mod. I think there's enough here that can step up and lead by example. If that's not happeneing I'm not real sure what a mod is supposed to be able to do. A mod basically governs and well.... There's plenty of fedders that have good ideas, there just needs to be concerted efforts to pull this place back together by everyone, If that's the desire.
To wars point, I personally think a single match is a good idea or, as I'm fond of, highlite shows every week that leads to one big board ppv in which everyone submits one match. From recent activity I don't think this place really has the grounds to be picky.
Another idea, if everyone had there own fed thread, they could just update the thread with highlites, or a few pics here and there that helps build to their ppv. It's something I've thought about in considering a return but honestly the inactivity is diffusing.

And for those that put out matches that are less than stellar we need to give them positive criticism as opposed to negative criticism . We need to tell them what they did wrong instead of watching part of the show and ignoring it all together.
The community needs to be more accepting I think and willing to help as opposed to being all selective. Just an outsider looking in.

It actually makes a lot of sense, and it is something I contemplated many times. The typical show has 3 matches and sometimes, you have that one match done but you still need to pull 2 more matches out of your... hat! Why not just post a match, and next episode, the following match, and maybe instead of doing a show with three episodes, you have 3 mini shows, each with their own match and you can tie them all together like a triple parter, I think it makes sense. Who said each episode has to be it's own self contained show, or that somebody can do a 30 issue show, and all 30 issues are taking place in the same event? I think we had many rules that made sense in the past, when there was more activity, but now it's a good idea to let some of those rules loose for a bit and get some blood pumping back into the system. Hey, your matches don't even have to be interconnected, I know I always get hooked on shows based on there being some story behind it that makes it fun, not just an awesome ring, an awesome arena and awesome posing skills. I have lots of little segments and one shot matches lying around and I've never know what to do with them, since I had WCM running through a very stream-lined story process and it was hard to get off the track, but hey, I already wrapped up that, why not move to something different. Make a "Tales of X Federation" or a "Legends of the Y Federation" or even a "X Federation Files", I mean, tell a single self contained story in each issue, and maybe use each mini episode to advance a greater storyline, wouldn't that be fun? Man, I'm a getting all excited already!

Again, what would you prefer, a full show (3-4 matches) that airs once every 2-3 months or a single match show that is airing maybe once per week, and even better, a load of different shows following this short format. I'm telling ya'all, I'm getting excited.

Even if a thread started and someone posted part of their show...
Blah blah blah wrestling with men Episode one part one
Then you update it as you can.

I'm telling ya'all, I'm getting excited. I dont think it really matters at this pint Izzy, guys come on here and promise stuff or just drop in to give advice but really dont have any inclination on fedding or have any figs left to fed with. I definately think this board needs a mod that will get some new ideas instead of rehashing old ones, thats a step in the right direction and each time we had a new Mod or changed Moderators activity increased. Mybe Micro would be interested in taking over or like I said when Stinger was coming back you could do it Izzy I think you would do a fine job. The one match pic fed seems to be a good idea right now, but if guys dont have the drive to do that at least whats the next step. I will attempt to do this, I would rather actually DO something here then just critique and add advice about fedding when they have no inclination to ever do it again . I think if a few people can do this then the baord will come around again hopefully. This IS the pic fed board, not the promise a pic fed board! Now hopefully I can shoot a match with one arm!

Izzy time to get those figs off the shelf my man! You can do it! Drats! I just tried to hold up my camera and take a few shots but I cant with the condition my shoulder is in. So I wont be able to do much til it heals up fully, no way I'll be able to get those string shots and high impact moves I like to do. Hopefully by spring I can. Rotator cuff surgeyr is tough man! I'd just like to thank Warsman for caring enough about this place to actually try to help out and come up with some fresh ideas!

Now hopefully I can shoot a match with one arm! ding In the event that we do or do not get a new mod, what ideas are you offering? Perhaps the members should have things in place then when a mod comes in they're not left to do all the work. A mod shouldnt have to hold hands and give demands. The members should be able to function without an overseer. If not there's a bigger problem with the board then getting a new mod. And I think the criticisms of anyone coming in here, especially at this time should be reigned in. If people have an idea and dont pic fed, or promise a pic fed, who cares, let's just support them. I'd say some activity is better than none at all. The environment needs to get back to being one of everyone is welcomed and supported. Most on here share a common bond...pic fedding...either you do it, you like watching it, or you like helping with it. just my opinon.

I fully support the one match pic fed, with an updated thread when they add shows, I myself did this with my pic fed when I first started. The highlight formula sucks in my opinion, you can hardly follow the action and it leaves me personally with no fulfillment of watching the match. To each their own This board has always been fighitng, was before I was here and it will be after. I 've always tried to support people but I do notice that most of the problems always came from guys who DIDNT FED! and had to add to the problems that were already here. I would like to see everyone get along and produce shows, which is why were here so hopefulyy a few of us can come together and brainstorm and come up with some positive forward movement. Izzy get those figs off that shelf!

This isn't about a new mod, guys. I'm just seeing what ideas we might have to make this place fun again. The chat thread is a definite no-go. We can't handle it, lol.
If single matches or even highlights get some juices flowing and movement on the board again, great! I'm all for it!! I made a few single matches last year that I thought were fun and held their own against anything I've ever made. I'd like to see other people try it too! Plus, I know it will take some effort, but we should think of being more inviting to the Youtube fedders. I know, I'm the last person who should talk, but I agree with the poster who said some of us need to leave better feedback for those just starting out.
Just some thoughts, I'd like to hear others. Again, let's not make this about Stinger.
Thanks,
Wars

I would like to see everyone get along and produce shows, which is why were here so hopefulyy a few of us can come together and brainstorm and come up with some positive forward movement. Izzy get those figs off that shelf! I post when I think I have two cents to add There's many ideas that I have and I'm sure others too to build this place up. But there needs to be a foundation first. There's is barely anything here now. To start, pic fedders and potential pic fedders need to want to pic fed, and that may mean tapering down their production. Secondly, their needs to be a concerted effort for everyone to support each others. This place is not a club. It's a sub board and not a very active one of the whole site. We cant afford to keep others at arms length. That outsider may one day be the next great pic fedder. A gave one idea as far as people putting out highlite shows or a thread then building towards a board joint ppv. Again, it's about committment. I think discussion is good because it peaks interest, and I know for myself, when people are talking about fedding, it provides a little extra motivation. And I agree with you...I too would like to see everyone get along and produce shows and come together and brainstorm and come up with some positive forward movement. But, no one can do it alone, nor should they have to. 2013 is young, we shall see.

Again, let's not make this about Stinger. Thanks, Wars I agree Wars and I will try and do exactly that, a one show pic fed with an updated thread. Seems like a good idea and hopefully we can get a few others on that same page. I personally think a new mod is essential as it should be the mods job not to babysit, but to be the head cheerleader so to speak and come up with ideas and really draw in people to want to pic fed, not a shot at stinger but just a general thing that should be commonsense here. I think I can see a few people doing this but any journey starts with a single step. Deskjet good luck to you and your future endeavors

There were a lot of good new pic fedders here this summer, river city rebel, vikidan and a few others that I would love to see come back. Also Micro had a wonderfully fresh fed I wonder if we cant draw him back into the fold.

I feel like people get overwhelmed when trying to get into pic-fedding...or anything new for that matter. Lets take fedding out of the equation, what is something all of us have tired and were overwhelmed with. Where we said you know, I wish I would have had a better understanding.
