| + | Holy Toledo, so glad I clkiced on this site first! |
| − | | |
| − | This is a list of [[Forums/Recommended Posts|recommended posts]] for the week from Sunday, July 20, 2008, to Saturday, July 26, 2008. The point of this list is to give newcomers a quick way to grasp what's going on in the forums, as well as to create a mechanism for feedback on forum contributions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Ground rules:
| |
| − | * Every week, we'll do some kind of summary post in the forums, to round up the results from these recommendations.
| |
| − | * A nomination and two supporting votes will guarantee a post or thread makes it into the summary. (Those numbers may change.)
| |
| − | * Obviously, no nominating or supporting your own posts.
| |
| − | * Be sure to include:
| |
| − | ** A link to the relevant post or thread.
| |
| − | ** The name of the forum member who made the post.
| |
| − | ** A quote or descriptor to make it clear what the substance of the post or thread was.
| |
| − | ** Your own name, and whether you're nominating or supporting.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To nominate a post, simply copy and paste this code:

| − | * Yes, I've just nominated three threads I started. And yes, that's specifically against the rules I myself set out at the top of the page. I'd even suggest the "Favorite JoCo moments?" thread, if I didn't think that was pushing it. But I really think this one needs to be in, because every JoCo fan can at least talk about songs they like, can't they? --[[User:Bry|Bry]] 00:13, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

| − | * Here's another thing that every newbie can talk about, and I always love hearing what paths they took (not to mention it's interesting to see ways that we might be able to spread the Gospel a little). --[[User:Bry|Bry]] 00:13, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
