Small Talk: Don't Fear The Conversation

[1 who Knocks-Nuihc]

I hope so. To everyone here AMC.Com announced they are closing their forums at the end of May 2018. (Thanks for the notice?) Anyway we are looking for a new home for everyone and this site seems to be something we could go for.

[Cherokee Rose]

Seems like it could work. Still trying to learn the system. Do I need to quote the topic to respond to the forum.

[WalkerTalker]

The gangs not all here yet, but hopefully we will be by the end of May. 

[WalkerTalker]

Ok, I figured out how to post with you all, yippeekiya!

I think it depends. If it is a super long post you are replying to it might be best to just indicate who you are replying to. e.g.

@Cherokee Rose I think it just depends.

@SilverStormm (or any other mod) do you create the weekly episode topic? Or do we do it?

[Cherokee Rose]

Hopefully we can all join in and have fun!

Hey gang, if you click on the FORUMS button at the top right side of the screen, then click on the "Edit Show Subscriptions" (mid-page on the left side) you can place a check-mark next to all the shows you are interested in. Then, the next time you click the FORUMS button all your selected shows will show up in alphabetical order at the bottom of the page. Super convenient way to go to your selected forums.

It occurs to me that we need to post in every forum on AMC where we have gone so that the people returning for shows after the forum closes at the End of May will know where we are. e.g. Better Call Saul, Preacher, The Walking Dead, etc. This forum is actually more usable than AMC's. (You can edit posts - YAY!)

Welcome refugees from the AMC forums!  Your original topics were merged into this one, but a link will remain for 30 days from your original topic to this location. 

Since this topic is for general discussion, introductions and the like, I'll post a separate one with some guidelines.

@Nuihc, the mods create the weekly episode topics in this forum.  We have a topic for real-time live chat as you're watching the episode, which locks after the episode is over, at which time a post-viewing topic will open.

Hi Raven, 

Are you one of the moderators? Who are the other moderators? 

[raven]

New posters - I am a moderator in this forum with @nodorothyparker.  Please take a look at this pinned post for some additional information.

If you have forum specific questions (not show specific) you can post them there, thanks,

Answers on how to do certain things site can be found in the FAQ.

[WalkerTalker]

Thank You

[Cherokee Rose]

@Raven, Thank you also. I'm new here, too. If we have questions, do we address you by name? Or say, @moderator? Can we also PM you if necessary?

[WalkerTalker]

I don't know how you did it, but you just popped me onto that page, lol. I'm going to go out and read up on the rules. I don't want to get sanctioned or anything. 

[1 who Knocks-Nuihc]

I wish we would see more folks dropping in. It's not long before AMC forums will be gone (the jerks!) :)

[Cherokee Rose]

I'm not sure folks know. Trying to spread the word. Some staying away from forums. Some don't know AMC Forums are closing, as they didn't get emails. Some won't be back till Fall, and forums will be gone. (Convenient timing, huh?!) Perhaps posting info on various forums?

@WalkerTalker,

@Nuihc, and others,

No episode of FTWD next weekend. I guess due to holiday. So this will be the last FTWD Sunday evening chat on AMC forums before they close. Wonder if folks know this? As some come just on Sundays, how will we help them find there way here for shows after tonight? So little time!

[Big Survivor]

Hey all - good to see you three here. and Thank you for finding something in such a short notice to keep in touch. This doesn't look too bad and may be our new home!

[Cherokee Rose]

@Big Survivor, Hi there! Nuihc has worked hard to find a place for us. We can small talk here on this thread, but need to visit show forums to discuss them. I've asked mod if there's a way to keep show forums open longer to allow east and west coast discussion, as they close directly at end of show. There's a post show topic, but would have spoilers for those not on same coast, watching live together. Am awaiting reply. Good to cya!

[Big Survivor]

Sounds good! Being new, it'll take some getting used to on what we should be doing. Feels like that first day in college . LoL

So how do we follow? ?

[Cherokee Rose]

Me, too. I've been so lost. AMC is only forum I've ever done. WT and have been talking with each other trying to figure out what we're doing. Very nice moderator here. Was kind enough to post some help links above. Any ideas on how to let others know about this so they can come, too?

[Big Survivor]

Sounds like tonight will be it for the AMC forums, so probably just posting this location is really all we can do at this point.

[Cherokee Rose]

Yes, I agree. There will be a Memorial Weekend chat party, but now sure how many feel up to it. Nuihc is the green "N". WalkerTalker is the dark red "W".

[Big Survivor]

Got it - thanks CR, much appreciated! 

[1 who Knocks-Nuihc]

need more people to jump over here - I wish they would leave the forums up for a while even if they disable the ability to comment so people can see where to go

[WalkerTalker]

Hi, 

DixonVixon has been out here for awhile. BigSurvivor,Zombmess,seankaseantic,Ironmetal signed up tonight. I have been telling them often on the FTWD thread tonight. CR has been putting thte link for here up. We have to keep telling them and putting it at the top of the thread so they know about this site.

Is there any other way to follow someone besides finding their post? Some are out here but have no posted yet, or not posted under TWD,FTWD.

[ironmetal]

i have jump over here:D evening guys and gals

How do we post new posts other than reply?

[Big Survivor]

Good question WT - I'm not sure yet of a way to find/follow someone who hasn't posted yet. Will keep looking.

Hello Iron

[Zombness]

I am here guys ....!!

[1riot1ranger]

I made it I think

[Big Survivor]

Welcome!

[Cherokee Rose]

@1riot1ranger, I re-posted the info for this forum at end of tonight's show with links. I'm watching TTD, and will likely re-watch FTWD with the west coast. I'll re-post the info again. I also watch Terror and Legion, and can mention it there. OoohMaggie has been trying to make an account, too. I'll try to re-post the info at the Memorial weekend chat, too. :)

@Zombness and @ironmetal, good to cya. Will keep trying to spread the word before AMC goes poof!

Think GloriaA is coming. Find seanetic as "SeanakaSeanetic". Shame we don't have more time to spread this, as no FTWD next week.

Others are considering coming, and at least they have the links! :)

[WalkerTalker]

I know, what a learning curve. I'm lol tonight. My first night my head hurt. I haven't been out on any other talk forums yet, just this one. I figure I have until the end of the month to get up to speed on this so we can all start chatting again and meet other new peeps. 

Have a good night. Some of us will be back on AMC The Terror Finale tomorrow. 

[Cherokee Rose]

@1riot1ranger. Sorry I missed you. Was at TTD, and sharing info for west coasters. Follow people by clicking on their picture/letter, and it's takes you to the person. Then, click follow. Hope this helps.

@Big Survivor Sorry I missed you. Sharing info with west coast. Re-posting info it so it doesn't get buried down the thread. Cya later! :)

@WalkerTalker. Are you there? Trying to reach me?

[Cherokee Rose]

Goodnight, WT. Was passing info onto west coast. Sorry I missed you. Have a good one. Left you messages earlier.

[WalkerTalker]

Oh yeah, I got all your messages earlier. I'm so tired now I can't remember all of them. I will reread them before TT tomorrow. I new you were with the westies, I left a message out there too. I just sent you and email. 

[Cherokee Rose]

@PrincessPurrsALot. Thanks kindly. I'm new to this, and we're trying help each other come over. Thanks for your guidance a lot! I've only posted on AMC forums before, which are closing, as you know. So all help greatly appreciated! :)

[WalkerTalker]
