Hi, folks! In an effort to produce a little more interest in Severance, I have decided to host a mailbag for the site. I discussed it with JC and he thought it was a good idea. After all, other sites have mailbags, so why shouldn't Severance? A new mailbag will be posted every Friday... if I get e-mails! For each mailbag, I'll set up a topic which I think should help spark some interest. Of course, the topics may not be for everyone, so you can go off-topic, if you wish. The mailbag's e-mail address is: sev_mailbag@hotmail.co.ukTo contact me directly use: skulkrusha2000@hotmail.comE-mails will never be given out on the mailbag, complete discretion will be yours. I will use the first part of e-mail addresses to identify who each mail is from (e.g. johnsmith@provider.com will only show as johnsmith in the mailbag). If you want me to show your e-mail under a different name on the mailbag, add it in parenthesis "( )" somewhere in your e-mail. Anyway, the topic for this week's (Friday's) mailbag - Do you think having a mailbag is a good idea? I'll give the link to the mailbag only if I get a good amount of e-mails. Otherwise, there's no point. So, what are you waiting for? Get mailing! sev_mailbag@hotmail.co.ukPeace!

I'm not exactly sure what a mailbag is.... Could you explain?

I'm not sure how to explain it. Basically, you send e-mails to a certain address to share your thoughts on subjects. You'll probably get the idea once it's put up... if people actually send e-mails in. Each week, I'll give you guys a subject to talk and argue and go completely off-topic about basically because it adds a little more interactivity to the site. If anyone can explain a mailbag better, please do so, because my worthless attempt probably just created more confusion. Peace!

So.... Everyone sends replies to the topic to the above address, and everyone can read them?

Like an interactive poll, you say? I was thinking it had something to do with fanmail - kind of work. - JC

I'd like to see a little more interest in this. So far, I've only received one e-mail for the mailbag, so thank you to the person who sent it (despite them calling me random, again! ) So please, write in! Peace!

Sent! ...and added (yes, as Moonshadow, as you requested). Hmm. Two emails. Still not enough for a substantial mailbag. Remember, if you don't want to talk about my suggested topic, you don't have to. If I could get at least maybe one or two more emails, I could have it up by next Friday (or later today, depending). Peace!

Well, she can add the mailbag address if she wants, but she shouldn't expect anybody to talk to her using it, since that's all it is, an address. Peace!

I think HMW thought of it as a helpdesk kind of account, that's on MSN to answer any quick questions by people. If that's true, I think it's a reasonable idea. OT, Gotta run, back to class. - JC

Hmm. Well, anyway, the mailbag will be posted sometime tomorrow. I was hoping to have a two-pager, but since I only got three emails, it's just going to be a single page. I'm still accepting emails, though. Hopefully, the following weeks will have people showing a little more interest in this. Peace!

I know it will. I'll make sure to keep the Welcome Table updated to make sure to catch it. Do you think you need a new thread for the second? Maybe we should get clear what you want with each week. - JC
