Announcing the Amiga.org SoapBox.
« on: March 11, 2004, 08:24:59 PM »
Different from the general forums, The Soapbox is an area of the site where the administrators and users alike can share well-written opinions and editorials with the other site's members in a permanently archived, professional fashion.

If you are a registered user, you can even submit your own articles for consideration by our staff. Please be aware that we will reserve the right to run it through a grammar and spell check, but will not alter the premise of your submission.

Check out the Soapbox

Fixed.  You need to log in to post, comment or otherwise contribute, but reading is open to the public.

SoapBox has been added to the side menu at the left.  

Just a heads up.  As of this morning, I'm seeing several bugs with the Soapbox module that I will be asking the developer for help on.  The largest of which is that when you create a comment in reply to an editorial, it -- for some stupid reason -- turns off the flag for "allowing comments" to that editorial, making the comments disappear.  How weird...  I'm trying to stay on top of it.

Anyone here want to help us populate the "Historically speaking" column?

dunno whether I am 'professional' enough for the soapbox
Considering that no one has actually submitted anything, it's hard to tell.
