Still working a few things out on this, folks. I haven't forgotten! Namely, I'm thinking about where to put the story threads themselves -- do I put all the stories together regardless of 'ship/genre? Or do I put each story in each 'ship's individual forum? And related to that, PMs will work ok for authors to have behind-the-scenes discussions, but I think you can only PM 5 people at a time, so if any group gets bigger than that, they're actually going to need a thread where they can put their heads together without everyone seeing. So there's the question of where I'm going to put that.
Then, if there's going to be adult content in the story, how do we handle that? If I make it so only logged-in registered members can see it, I'll have to put it in its own section (away from the 'ship threads) because you can't hide individual threads in a section. Or, we can leave it in the 'ship section and put anything adult in spoiler code.
Just wanted to let you guys know where I'm at with planning.
