I think in true Boss Hogg style, we should have a cradle to grave plan for fanfics. Therefore, I think we should have a Hogg's Heavenly Acres sub-forum to properly bury neglected and low quality RRs. Some of these stories have been going on for years and although they might be a lot of low quality fics, someone cared enough about them to continue them for so long. I don't want to delete all their work. I do, however, want to only showcase the higher quality fics in the main RR forums, so the best way to do that is move the low quality fics to their own sub-forum.

Unless you're a Seinfeld fan...

Ok, time for my 2 cents. As moderators of these forums, we don't like to have to step in. We like for our members to be able to post freely, as long as it isn't harassing, disruptive, or offensive. We have all levels of writing ability here. We already had this discussion a while back and we did some remodelin' to move threads to more appropriate sub-forums. We asked you all to rate various fanfic threads to give us an indication of what you thought the quality was so we could move the lower quality ones out of the main FanFic forum. That doesn't mean you should just give good ratings to the high quality stories. You should also give bad ratings to the poor quality ratings. If the quality of the story bothers you so much, either 1) don't read it or 2) if there's a discussion thread about it, offer CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. And by constructive, I don't mean "Your writing sucks. Work on it." Give specifics and details. "I really don't think the part where Daisy reacts this way works. Here's how she reacts in similar situations in the show..." or "you should spend a little more time describing the scene or developing the character", etc. Perhaps in addition to the Fan of the Month, we should highlight a quality fanfic (either finished or in progress) to bring members' attentions to. Nominations will be based on thread ratings. So get out there and rate those fanfics! Oh, and Cowboy, nobody puts a halt to anything around here except for me, MaryAnne, or Brian. Got it?

Happy New Year!

Bahahaha!! Can I join the club? Congrats, Garrett!

Awww. Well, I hope it was fun while it lasted.

Post approved! http://www.hazzardnet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7654 We always moderate the first few posts of new folks to keep out the riff raff.

How could I have missed this post? LOL. I celebrated the 15th anniversary of my 21st birthday, Rog. LOL. And yeah, I was born on December 25th, kinda cool. Mom says I was the best Christmas present ever. Thanks for the awesome cake, cousin!

I'll try to swing by. What date and time did we settle on? Dec. 23rd at 3pm Eastern? I don't have anything planned for this year... yet. If any of you have ideas, I'm game.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... too much turkey...

I hope you all enjoy Turkey Day! I'm thankful for all my wonderful friends and family and all their support this year!

Are any of you going to be shopping online for Black Friday/Cyber Monday? If so, send me a private message and I'll send you a link to some sites I'm working on, posting deals and coupons for those days and the holidays.

Ok, here are the costume contest results. First Place: TomBo's Duke Family Second Place: BoJames' Daisy Duke Third Place: DaisyMae's Bumblebee Dog There were no pumpkin contestants other than Daney, so she wins by default. Thanks to all who entered. If the winners will please contact me with the email addresses they would like Amazon gift codes sent to, I will send you your prizes. Thanks. (And I'll remember to send yours from Amazon UK this time, BoJames. )

Vote for your favorite costumes. You can view entrants here: http://www.hazzardnet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7603

That is too cute, Daisy! LOL.

Ok, for those posting costumes from Halloween store sites, we need to actually see you in them to know you're actually dressing up in them for Halloween. If you don't feel comfortable posting the photos here, please email them to us. We won't post them without your permission.

Remember, all entries must be in by midnight tonight (though we'll probably take them anytime up until we post the winners. LOL)! Looks like there aren't many entries, so if you get one in, you might just win by default. LOL.

Jimmie ad libbed all the time. It got to the point that the writers would just put a place holder in the script for Jimmie to do his thing. If it was great, they took credit. If it fell flat, they'd complain about him adlibbing again. LOL.

Have you had experiences you can't explain? Have you had encounters with spirits or the paranormal? Tell us about them here in the Official HazzardNet Halloween Real Life Spooky Stories Thread! MUAHAHAHAHA! (This thread will be best read in the dark with a bowl of .)

This is the official thread to post your Halloween costume and pumpkin carving entries for our contests.

Happy Birthday, Brian! Yer b-day present is gonna be late. It's the post office's fault (even though I haven't even mailed it yet. Khee!) I guaran-teeeee it'll get there before the end of the year tho'. Hehehe... Hope you had a great day.

Funny you should mention that. Before I changed his title to "Fan of the Month", I almost changed it to Uncle Jesse. LOL. Congrats on Fan of the Month, B.L. Thank you for contributing here at HNet. Roger made a good pick.

The server went down for about an hour. I contacted tech support at my webhost almost immediately after it went down (thanks, Alex, for the heads up), but they had trouble rebooting the server, so it took a while to bring back up. Sorry for the inconvenience!
