Two things I think I'd like to see... ...one, a board for toys (though I've seen a few things I'd rather play with on another board ![[who, me?]](graemlins/whome01.gif) ) And, maybe a separate section for Comic conventions? (A way for the lot of us to meet & greet, help each other look for books...something like that...) Just a couple of random thoughts, off the top of me head...

I'd like to vote for subcategories for each independant title. After a day and a half of checking the boards it is a little of a headaque seeing all the different comic book related topics mixed.

As much as it pains me to agree with ManofTthe Atom… It would be nice if it was a bit more specific here. Nothing like the late DCMB's mind you, where thay had a board for every turd they produced... But maybe a: DCU Superman Batman GL Flash JLA... Okay, I see where Rob's coming from... Maybe its time to use this MB as is and quit trying to make it sumthin it ain't. But as long as Rob wuz asking… Subcategories pleeeeze ![[um.... uh huh! ... ]](graemlins/umuhhuh001.gif)

Maybe something simpler:
An area for the JSA related titles
An area for the JLA related titles (minus Batman and Superman)
An area for Legion
An area for Superman and Superman related titles
An area for Batman and Batman related title
And finally an area for DC Universe titles.
Just six subcategories. Five if you put Legion inside the DC Universe area.

That's one guy I wish WOULD show up around here.... ![[sad]](images/icons/frown.gif)
I don't. Dumas and I never got along, and I considered him at times to be a borderline troll (and I really don't like trolls). I apologize if you and him are buddies, and I hate to talk about the guy behind his back, but I've needed to vent about him for a while (I can hold a grudge a really long time - it's my least favorite personality trait).
Then again, I have to admit that it's kinda personal between me and Dumas. On the JLA boards, he kept sabotaging my threads with his Batman-bashing tirades. I was trying to have a real discussion and he turns my threads into flame wars. I also didn't like how he started threads just to bash people. Whether they deserved to be bashed or not, starting a thread just to embaress someone is just petty (and I happened to see eye to eye with the people he bad-mouthed). He really crossed the line on some of them, and he made the JLA board pretty unpleasant to go to. I stopped going there because of him (which pissed me off, becuase I liked going there).
But every board needs its bad boy, I guess.
Well, Dumas certainly made it clear how he felt about Batman. [troll]But, you gotta admit, Batman DOES suck![/troll]

Well, I can't say I care much for Batman post-1986. Batman pre-1986, on the other hand, I like a lot.

I personally don't think so, but I'm not gonna make a big deal out of that. But I do get royally pissed at someone who feels the need to inject his anti-Batman propaganda into thread after thread after thread. He torpedoed some of my threads and turned them into flame wars. That's the kind of troll that gets on my bad side.

Nice board Rob, and it's great to be here. And here we all are clamoring for our own categories already! Like guests who arrive and start rearranging the furniture, cleaning out the fridge and borrowing your car. :)

It's a great board - very relaxed and quite an eye-opener because I've never mixed with the Batman/Superman crowd. There's a lot of cool people here.

BW7 - good to see you here!
Now if we can get Papercut Fun, Neilencio, Lord Savaunt, DMcD and the other guys here - not to mention Mike - we can continue our tea party.

1. Keep the politics discussions to the off topic/politics board and the comic book discussions to the comic books board. I hate to mix business with pleasure. 2. Give me an actual avatar of G.G. Liddy. The closest I could find was Zod.

And BTW Rob, these boards are SOOOOO...... much nicer that the new ones at DC. I've remained posting over there, to try to work through the issues (& gave you some feedback in your request thread over there), but it's a REAL EFFORT to get stuff posted there so far. Of course, your first advantage here, is that you rule! No "suits" to issue edits. That's always a big help! And secondly, you actually have a functional MB software package. Now there's an idea!! Have just come back here today, to start trying all the functions of this board, but looking forward to it. And in case you missed it over at DC, I had a comment in one of the MB forum threads (not your "C'mon...." one) that you have to have the most thankless job at DC right now. How you're managing all the implementation of that new system, trying to update/change what you can, moderate those boards, and battle off the more irate fans AND still have time to do this board is amazing. Or, it just goes to show you're working the standard 24x7 IT shifts. (Been there. Done that.)
