I could REALLY use some help from other people who have made II threads before. I have made threads before in the past, but they all died and some of them died before they even started. I really would like to make one where people won't lose interest, but I can't tell what cause's people to lose interest in them. Any advice on threads would be appreciated...

Don't double post perhaps?:D

study other IA threads... see how they do things. don't Godmode and definatly don't have any Deus Ex Machina.

Become WYTYGo.O
A forumite called WhereYouThinkYouGoing. Has a knack for creating long running threads (I assume). News to me.

Anyway, I have nothing of value to add, I don't even know what "IA" stands for. >.< Sorry. :(

It stands for "International Incidents".

Bra-zilam

Female puppet?!

It stands for "International Incidents".
Oh. Then NM :(

It stands for "International Incidents".
See, that's what I thought, but then I let myself get all confused by the tiny little fact that it said "IA". Silly me. :p

IA... International Incidents...

do you mean I.I.?

Bra-zilam

That's not what it means (At least I didn't intend it to be). I was going to name myself Brazil, but the sign-up sheet said the name was already taken. So I came up with this name.

Mention Islam, Israel or the UN. Long thread guaranteed!

What are Deus Ex Machina in this context?
(I know what they were in the Globe theatre)

Yes, that's just a little mistake I made when typing up the post.

No it's not. I was going to name myself Brazil, but the sign-up sheet said the name was already taken. So I came up with this name.

Bummer!

From what I've read, it would seem to mean when a great power all of a sudden at the least expected moment comes in and adjusts the current situation to however whoever controls it sees fit.

:(

Bummer!

Is "zilam" even a word?

Is "zilam" even a word?
Zilam's a generator of words, I suppose...

Or forumite, to the less pedantic.
