New features?

Postby dark_rain » Wed Aug 08, 2007 11:46 pm

Having spoken with Elessar over procedures for new fics, we've decided that it might be good to offer a mailing list or RSS feed to announce new fic submissions. We wanted your opinion on the issue so here's the poll! Any questions please ask.

I don't have a really strong opinion, but I don't mind checking for new fic.

Sure might be useful to offer that option for people who don't visit the site like every day and wanna be notified :)

It occured to me because for a long time I was just a lurker at HoT and didn't post or have any interest in posting... A SHAME! I know! :lol: But I would like to make it a little more convenient for anyone doing that here to keep up-to-date on the latest fics, and hopefully, entice them to come out of the closet and register! :D

I think this would be a great idea. It's what ff.net do and for those of us waiting desperately for the new fic to arrive it would be fantastic. I think other Ent fic archives have done similar - it seems like a logical step to me (and one I've sort of taken for my own website).

well it does look as if we will do it.There may be an overhaul of the current fic system (new software) and this will be an included feature.
