Details on Rules and Suggestions

Happy New Year Fandom!

We are super excited about all of the activity on the comm and about all of the challenges that are coming up and going on! We also want to commend [livejournal.com profile] kijikun for her start of the Tales of Suspense Wiki! Please all go there and add some info to our boys! :D

As Mods, we're beginning to get our bearings with the organization of the comm and we've been open with you about how you wish to arrange things and the time spent on fics and art and posts. Our goal, as always, is to keep things fun and friendly here and avoid any dramalama.

However, part of this does mean that occasionally we receive PM's regarding concerns or issues about the comm as a whole and we've received an increased number lately all related to the same issues - as we decide how to engineer the rules and guidelines of our comm to adjust to these concerns (any suggestions are of course encouraged), we've also sent out PM's to a few people.

THEY are not in trouble as it is our responsibility as Mods to set appropriate guidelines and we admittedly have not yet - We love each and every one of the members here at cap_ironman and want everyone to know this is not meant to be mean. Again, if anyone has any concerns please feel free to PM [livejournal.com profile] pandanoai or [livejournal.com profile] axolotl_lan or you can even leave an anonymous comment here.

Please read over the new and improved profile page ([livejournal.com profile] miriel is a goddess and helped us revamp it). Also, [livejournal.com profile] kijikun will be posting a "how to" for what we encourage Fic Posts to include, soon. Be on the look out for a "how to" Art Post down the line as well. :D

Please don’t hesitate to toss rule suggestions our way so we can see what fits into our fandom best and all enjoy the comm, and of course, our boys. <3

Thank you all!~

An Idea

For me it's really just too much trouble to go posting all over the place, especially since I hardly use either of my journal for fandom related items, but I can get where people come from.

I'd also like the idea of posting weekly S/T related comic panels onto the comm. Kind of like what SD does, but weekly, and specifically related to S/T. I'd be willing, and I'm sure others would, too. A group could get together and one person do it different weeks so it wouldn't all fall on one person's head. I'd be a quick learning experience for new comers, as well as references for great story lines and such. You can tell I've thought about proposing this for a while... I'm just not sure if it would clash with the Slashiet Moments list or not...

I don't think it would clash. There are tons of storylines that are important to Steve and Tony's relationship and history that aren't actually slashy.

Ah! Okay, good. I realize there would be a lot of delving into back canon and other comics and such, and I didn't want to steal your thunder or anything if that was the case, but I think it is important to tell their stories outside of there relationship, and how that builds who they are, their reasoning, and what those things do to draw them together. (Apparently, I get very philosophical about S/T while reading back-canon...)

What does "locked post" mean? *is bad at internetz* S/T related or something related to their character that relates back to S/T...

Yeah, okay! I'll e-mail you for the scans, and I have one I want to but up later today, if that's alright?

locked means "members only" -- when you go to "post an entry" and it asks at the bottom of the screen "Show this entry to" click "members only" :D

and yes! sounds great :D like i said, just make it "members only"
