cuz i would post to it. cuz i love books. and yes, i enjoy the lit threads on i love everything but, but, um, just wondering is all. ( it would be cool to have lots of authors and titles and books all in one specific place. just don't ask me why i never post on i love film even though i thought it was a cool idea when it started. although, the answer probably lies in me spending so much time on ILM and i only have so much time that i can spend ignoring my baby that i'm supposed to be watching all day. ya know?) i mean if there is room for aggro...

really? how? i've never read the fine print. i will investigate. i guess i was making a plea to the godz or something.

On the main ILX bit I think there's an option to 'start a forum' or some such. I managed it once and I'm a total fucking computer retard, so I'm sure everyone else can do it.

Yeah, it's very easy!

Yeah starting it is the easy part - getting people to post is harder. I check the other boards about once a week or so, when I'm *really* avoiding work.

I like the threads about books here too.

I actually don't love Books about Baseball.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 20:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I did it! Yayyyy! who knows, maybe no one will show up. but i will anyway. books on baseball would make a great thread!

I'll stick with talking about books here, thanks - ILE has the most intelligent, well-read, interesting people I've ever encountered. I don't want to go elsewhere for it. Well, except when I write and read about them on FT, but that's another approach.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 21:16 (twenty-two years ago)

I agree w/ Martin. The reason that ILBaseball is around is because there is so much minutia for the more fanatical of us to discuss that if it occurred on ILE, most people would get mad.

Further, I'm afraid that if I got into ILBoox, I'd be posting in dry, academic-bore stylee. (Unless I already do that?)

― Leee Iacocca (Leee), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually never mind, I only read comics.

― Leee Iacocca (Leee), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Unless unless comix talk is also fair game?

― Leee Iacocca (Leee), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:31 (twenty-two years ago)

great move scott: screw ILE. we should delete this board now.

x-post: start a comics board leee!

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm too busy writing about television and comics (yet another grad school statement of purpose) to start a new board!

― Leee Iacocca (Leee), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:38 (twenty-two years ago)

you are actually lazy. and reading too much voyager slash fiction.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:39 (twenty-two years ago)

You know me well.

― Leee Iacocca (Leee), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:39 (twenty-two years ago)

well, i'm gonna post on it and if people come that's cool. we'll see. i know that the film forum didn't stop anyone from posting film threads on ILE. and it's perfectly understandable. I think it could be a cool place for someone to post something about a book or author that they think not a lot of people have heard about or read. Plus, aren't all bookworms longing for a room of their own?

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 17 December 2003 22:57 (twenty-two years ago)

its an excellent thing scott. As the archive grows someone could do categories and so on. anyway I'll try and post as much as i can.

five years pass...

London ILB posters are having a FAP sometime next week.

See this thread for details, yet to be finalized: London ILB - FAP?
