Re: Scrumfish has wandered in
Following on that thought, hey Chris, what was your free hosting place? I have a group of Christian friends that have formed a book club and many of them can't make the wine and book discussion but still crave discussion in between nappies and other life requirements. I'd like to set up for them a forum for the people who can't show up, but I don't know the free forum domain that you used and I haven't been able to figure it out. A FB group totally sucks for not giving away spoilers and I'd like to help my HS friend who started this group. She got more interest than she was ready for when she suggested a book club! Oh, the point of the book club isn't being Christian, they just happen to be Christian. If that were not the case I would have mentioned this forum. Unless you want to create a sub-forum for a book club of someone I knew in HS, lol. Otherwise I would really appreciate the name of the place you got free forum hosting from. My google searches have not helped me find one.

Re: Scrumfish has wandered in
We used to use a free hosting forum called ezboard. They then changed names to YuKu and I believe they are still around.
I'd be happy to set up a private forum on BookTalk.org for them and have done that in the past. How many people are we talking about? 3 or 4? All I need from you is a name for the forum and a brief forum description that will be shown below the forum name/link.

Re: Scrumfish has wandered in
Tried to email you, domain not found. My email registered on this forum I can't access now, which I wouldn't care about if it hadn't prevented me from downloading and playing The Sims 3 on my laptop.
You would really do that? Like, create a subform for people who aren't non-religious? My many business classes tell me that this is the epitome of synergy. Why create a new forum when this one could be helped by new book buyers.
It would need to be super private, invite only. These people are not looking for discussion/arguments, only for reading books and talking about them to someone who is not a 2 year old. Like...a lot of moms desperate for adult conversation, but not looking to re-think their life views or anything.
Re-try your email so we can discuss.

Re: Scrumfish has wandered in
Happy holiday crap and all that, I'll check in later for the arranging of....a bunch of people who want to read books and want to discuss reading books. We'll figure it out. After we go sing Christmas Carols and dance our asses off on New Years.
