Hey everyone...it's Meezy, one of the admin's here at Late Hitz. I just wanted to post a message about what's going on right now.
We are currently in a "Beta" stage of the website. It is closed to the public (you will see the current teaser page on the home page), but I can grant you access if you want to check it out and get a better idea of what Late Hitz is going to be all about. Send me a private message.
The forums are in a Public-Beta stage until August 1st, when we launch the main site. We opened it up for people to register and start posting because the forums are about 95% done. With that being said, we're looking for suggestions about how we do things around here. If you don't see a board you need, or think things should be re-ordered, etc., please post in the Suggestions Box.
We're encouraging everyone to spread the word about the forums to their family, friends, etc. The full publicity campaign for the main site and forums will being on August 1st, but in the meantime we have no problem building the beginnings of our community here. So spread the word!!
In terms of general rules for the site, I won't go into too much detail here yet, because Floyd and I are working on an official TOS. I will say that swearing is allowed, flaming is allowed (with the exception of certain boards, i.e. Democrat boards, specific video game console boards, etc.), and we have a fairly open policy about anything and everything here. Some words you will see censored automatically by the forums, but these will mostly be limited to ethnic slurs and anything else we see fit. Signatures are encouraged, however if we begin to see a problem with length, we will impose restrictions.
I think that about covers it. We're really excited about Late Hitz as a whole, especially the Forums. We've built a solid framework, and look forward to everyone involved populating this community and building it into something great.
Any questions or comments feel free to message me.
be easy...
