Fluff Masters Clan

That would work. And something pointing the more frequent questions to us rather than to the Fluff forum. A faq seems so impersonal.

[Addoran]

The irony is we might end up having a fight amongst ourselves on some topics...

e.g. specific areas of old one/c'tan fluff, or opinions on the old Khorne is/isn't related to Khaine chestnut.

[Xerxes]

lol, true. I think we need to keep those arguments to ourselves, and point out to others that these areas are pretty much unresolved.

And then probably continue bickering.

Hows about we hound the admin to let us make a poll, and then entitle it 'What part of 40k would you like to know more about?/what part of Imperial history don't you understand?' or words to that effect.

Make it a decent menu of topics, and then we write some articles on the top 5/10?

Just an idea.

Numberofthebeast already made such a topic, although it isn't a poll. But a poll might be a better way of measuring what people want.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the current thread is a fluff "clinic" as it were, where people come with quick questions for quick answers. It needs to be pinned to serve its function properly, or we need to change the idea; possibly a pinned thread with all members and their specialities listed (getting updated over time), so that regular members can PM them if need be, and get rid of unnecessary clutter from the forum altogether.

Agreed. In case anyone did not notice, Hivefleet Mordacii is asking for details on the Doom Eagles. Anyone who knows anything about that particular successor chapter should help him out. No-one has even posted on his topic yet. I'm disappointed in you people.

A sticky or a pinned topic at the top, as Xerxes suggested, could really help. I don't know any of the mods, so if anyone could arrange that, it would be really nice.

I was wondering how do other similar minded fluff masteres apply for status.like my self for example.

That's because I don't think there is much that's official, apart from them being involved in the EoT campaign somewhere. I'll stick up what I've Googled, although it shames me to have done so.

Either be accepted by general consensus (as the majority here have been, we're old hands around the fluff forum) or get tested. We're not quite sure how to test people exactly yet, but Warmaster Psthisis passed a knocked up one by numberofthebeastxxx, after some very comprehensive posts in the fluff forum. But we have nothing cut and dried as yet; your best bet is to PM number (unless he nominates a few people, he may well get snowed with requests) with a few of the topics outlined already in this thread.

Hey guys,

Just thought I'd let you know why I've been out of the LO forum for awhile... I'm currently out of town on family matters and I cant say with certanty when I'll be back in the loop. I'm sorry if my absense has any ill effect. I'm confident you guys can run the club while im away (I doubt it will be in flames when I get back or anything like that). Were a very democratic club anyway any major decisions/changes would be voted on whether im here or not. I hope you all understand, family comes first after all.

Thanks for your understanding.

Cheers :cool:

Personally I think you should make Fantasy fluff an option too, Librarium Online is supposed to cover both games equally.

I could handle that, I'll even answer the 40k question for membership if you insist.
