As an English man I don't have it in me to make as much of an emotional plea as Shawn has above, however I echo his sentiments in as much as I want this place to thrive, and I feel with our current set up we could do just that. Like Rated R I don't think this place is dying but I do however think it's lost the momentum it had this time last year, and even though Trace and myself were/are very excited about the way we want to run this place in 2017, so far the actual participation hasn't been great. I'll always welcome any kind of input people want to give to help this place, be it RPing competitively, reading and critiquing RPs and, once we get the go ahead on the board title change, writing kayfabe articles/interviews for the WFWF.COM board. I can't thank Shawn enough for his continued efforts to get more people on board as he knows it's something both Trace and I don't do very well. We can run this place in as streamlined a way as we want, making sure people have storylines to work with etc, and I feel we both give consistent and coherent feedback to all of the writers here, however approaching people to join the fed in the first place? Well, again, we're both British and that kind of thing doesn't really come naturally heh.

Really excited to hear this! Was a bit skeptical of replacing the WFWF.COM thread with new threads for each story, but this sounds like a really good idea, it'll be nice to see the third sub-board in use again. Is changing the board name/description out of bad guy™ 's remit?

Funny thing is he misinterpreted the board as a real website instead of the kayfabe one and got very worried since he doesn't own the WFWF.com website domain.

Must admit I was surprised to have been tagged. As far as returning goes, I don't see that happening.
I can try to reply to RPs if I get a chance. That's about I can do at the moment.

My time as a moderator here, both for the WFWF, the text feds board when it was the fantasy booking board, and then the actual fantasy booking board, was nothing short of nightmareish. It's a wonder this place has survived so long because blunders like this were numerous.

I'll sign up but I can't promise I'll show. I haven't visited the boards much lately. I have since started working and going to college, but I'll try.
Zoe Schaefer is in.

Without trying to be a dick - if you can't show, please accept that and sign on when you can. We just had an entire card determined by no-shows. It'd be great to boost the numbers here, but a roster of 16 with only 8 able to show is the same exact thing as a roster of 8.

The whole idea behind me and Rated R starting the sign up thread, instead of just assuming everyone wants to be booked, was so that people could work around their availability. Unfortunately many seem to be happy to sign up for the show and then just not turn anything in. I don't really get it.
