B5 Hosting?
Myself and several other Babylon 5 fans have been working on a promising RPG: The Coming of The Hand. While every man and his dog have most likely thought up some wacked-out idea for such an RPG, we've finally nailed it. In our own humble opinions, the plot is excellent, and even the Great Maker JMS would be proud!! Unfortunately, none of the forums we've found suit our wants and needs--your forums seem perfect, however.
My question to admin is, are you willing to host an RPG, and if so, is there any cost? The reason we've been running into problems is because we're a bunch of poor hobos, who can't afford any decent forums, etc. While the plot is excellent, the admin are all dead-sexy beasts (:rolleyes [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img], and the B5 fans are just waiting for such an RPG to extend the great creation of JMS like this one will, this dream might never see the light at the end of the tunnel unless we can find a good site to host us.
Pretty please? Cherries on top? You'd have to be as evil as the [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/shad.gif[/img] to pull the metaphorical wings of this fly--to shoot down this RPG before it even has a chance.
If this post seems pitiful and filled with shameless begging, it's because it is. We need you, firstones.com!! We're loyal fans of anything B5, especially ourselves!! Whaddya say, fans?

Hehe... I wasn't sure anyone would be interested in this idea at all--no one seems to remember I exist at the SciFi BBoards, since I haven't posted in a while.
If he turns you down (which I don't think he will) just e-mail me using the one address in my profile. Thanks.

[b]Sanfam even emailed me personally to tell me that... someone has replied to this topic! That must mean he wants us to become part of the site!![/b][/quote]
I think that's probably because of the setting in your preferences. You can have the system notify you of any responses to topics you create.

Hmmm, The Coming of the Hand? Sounds like a bad 70's porno flick! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

Biggles, we'd love our own page!! Right now, we're stuck with crappy old Geocities, and it really hurts, because it is physically impossible to get members when you're using free hosting from a crappy site like that. But if you couldn't spare that, even just a forum would be nice, because it would open us up to the mainstream of B5 fans, and we'd actually get some memebership.
sameulk, I know it's because of my settings--that was a joke.
and Entil'Zha, it is pretty bad, It's only our working title, until someone gives us a better name .
Sanfam, where are you?!?!?!

heh... I wasn't. If anyone thinks of a better title, post it here.
Maybe Babylon 5: Resurgence
And as for Sanfam, man always loses to machine. This could be a while.
Has he tried kicking it? Usually works for me. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]
Anyhoo, I'll answer your questions:
Cost? What cost? This site is here to support the community, and will host you at no charge whatsoever. FO can give you everything you need. Again, it's here for the community.

What I want to know, is if it;s possible to change the setting of the forum, like colors, and the look of all the buttons? If not, it's just a minor gripe, but it'd be nice to have my resident graphics guy/miracle worker/Kosh_N create some custom stuff for us.
[quote]Sanfam does take donations though. Just send them all to me...er...better not send them to me[/quote]
One of the reasons we wanted to be hosted here is because we're poor hobos, as I stated earlier. I'm not old (15) enough to be trusted with a credit card or anything, either. Or money, for that matter. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]

Yes! Worship me, my minions!!!!
Ahem. Anyway, about the titles: To get a title, you have to get known around here for something, which means you need to be here for a while first. People who run mods or similar usually get a title saying what mod and what they do.

Also, since we're hosted will myself and Kesh Halafak (the other RPG guy) be allowed titles?

Secondly, how many forum boards would I be allowed? At least two would be required, but 3 would be excellent.
Thridly, would angering Biggles with my comments be hazardous to my position at First Ones?
