Phineas and Ferb Wiki:Newsletter submissions/A new Blog Order

Everyone has an opinion. Everyone wants to be heard. This is human nature, and until recently we all had the blog section to work with. However, there has been a recent crackdown on the blogs, ending commenting on inactive blogs, deleting inflammatory remarks and the like. There has also been a crackdown on what is allowed to be a blog, it is no longer a place to hold conversations or idly chat with your friends. Fear not though, for there is hope for us all. What is this ray of light in the darkness you may ask? Simple, the | Phineas and Ferb Message Boards. The Message Boards are simple to use and allow quite a bit more freedom than the Blogs do. For several reasons, including:
 * 1) More Freedom of Speech
 * There are rules against swearing, demeaning remarks and the normal stuff,

but there is a whole section devoted to "Off Topic Discussions" where you can discuss basically anything rated PG
 * 1) Actually designed for conversation
 * 2) More versatility in the way you can make your posts look.
 * The ability to quote as little or as much of a previous post as you so

desire.
 * The ability to comment on comments instead of the single layer of

specific replies you can nest quotes so as to comment several layers deep.
 * Preloaded emotes
 * Color, much much easier
 * And many more, see | here for a post showing these and others in use

also use this to follow a certain topic in a forum. They even have their own section
 * 1) Well organized, you can easily find, and search, for what you want.
 * 2) Friends and Foes. Easily pick friends and Users you want to hide, you can
 * 1) Forum Games: text based games that are specifically designed to be played

Yes the Message Boards are very nearly silent now, and yes we still have a lot of blog activity here, but if we all migrate across this roadway of the interwebs, we will all be much happier as we create a vibrant community of thoughts and ideas. As we share our theories and have fun together we will grow out of "The New Blog Order"

So dive right in discover something new.

Ending haiku:

Message Boards are up The wiki convos slow down A New Blog Order
