Mod Moment
I've said this in my journal, now I'll say it here where the three hundred and ninety two members and six hundred and thirty eight watchers can read it.
I don't speak a lot but I'm going to say this.
These fics do not rec themselves and with this many people watching the community and being involved with the community we should not be begging for volunteers on a month to month basis. This month is especially bad and quite frankly, it's embarrassing.
I know it may seem intimidating to do this but I promise you it's not. We're not asking for a Siskel & Roper review just the pertinent information and a little why you liked it. A minimum of four recs in a month is hardly a stretch either. One a week? Twenty minutes to do and that's if you're a slow typist.
Believe me when I say if we don't get enough people volunteering, the community will cease to exist and it won't be because we haven't tried. At this point we've done everything short of rec every single category at one time ourselves.
At the end of the day, the ball is in your court here.
A minimum of four stories in a month...
That's all we're asking.
eta: if you're not sure *where* to go exactly the volunteer posts are listed in memories here. They're in a different comm so as not to clutter this one up.
