I want to talk about this one reviewer who reviewed series 11 so far with Freudian symbolism, which I find hilarious as Freud was a fraud. Wow I just read another ANTI-RAD review. The website hit a new milestone as this was first review to get 11 feedback clicks.

OMG. Just had a look at this (I did not read the whole thing but I got the drift). This reviewer has some SERIOUS issues. And waaaayyy too much time on his hands.

So one of the rules of conduct for the website is to provide constructive criticism and treat others respectfully. If you can't be a decent human towards other people you are not welcome.

I like the seasonal drop down list, but no Flip Flop for Christmas? And Chimes of Midnight only shows if you filter by Doctor Who only?
Still, its a great idea and will be good when a few other date themes get added.

This is a hectic time of year so website updates will be slowing down until the new year starts. This also includes new account approvals. New stories will be added as time permits.

Here is an interesting observation: Original Sin was released two years ago, but has three of its five reviews posted only this month. It was on sale recently.
Just from this little bit of data, I am assuming it didn't sell so well when it first came out, but the recent sale, along with the new Roz and Chris stories has probably spiked its sales.

I haven’t checked this forum in a while. I can add Scratchman today with the other regular releases. I’ll look into the 13th Doctor novels as well.

While upgrades are still happening on the backend of the website, I need help making decisions about the front end. For now I want to focus on the front page. Here are some layout options/ideas I’ve come up with:
Option 1 (minimal) Latest Story Browser Latest reviews browser (Nothing else on the front page)
Option 2 (lots of stats) Latest Story Browser Popular Stories Popular Writers Popular Ranges Popular Story Arcs? Story of the week? Companion of the week (with short list of stories)? Website news Popular Reviews (small summary list only, not full review text) Latest Reviews (small summary list only, not full review text)
Option 3 Same as option 2 but with latest review browser at the bottom (full review text)
Other layout options I haven’t though of? I’m just trying to gauge what other people would like to see.

Just so you are aware mate, The Land of the Dead has the Fearmonger's cover. If nothing else, it proves I'm a frequent visitor!

This forum Howdy Folks, I was just informed of this forum by moderator/censor Ela here on Divergent Universe. I had never seen it. The **** ****** has merged with Outpost Gallifrey and the editorial stance by myself can now be read here, published today: www.outpostgallifrey.com/This forum seems to be nothing but a wasteland of deleted posts and users, the same kind of mentality that has destroyed the sheer and pure true content of fans for far too long. What I would like to know is why are there a ton of deleted posts? Who posted them and what did they say? See this censorship thing is a thing of the past. Shaun Lyon was a pioneer of being able to censor what fans say, and this looks, sickly similar. I certainly hope that Divergent Universe wants to move forward in freedom and fairness to fans of Doctor Who and Big Finish. I'm actually shocked right now to see this destruction. I would like to know who deleted all of this content and why. In expectation that I will never get a proper answer to that, I suppose the past is the past. But someone committed a serious crime here towards fans. Let's see if we can rebuild perhaps. But I absolutely want some answers. Kamelion

Hello Kamelion,
This thread has existed for a long time and it has been open for any member to post whatever they've wanted to here. If people have chosen not to post in this thread then that has been their prerogative. The thread is not locked. We've never stopped people from posting here, they've simply chosen not to. Maybe this will change in the coming days?
As for the number of deleted members in this thread, I would like to say that our moderator team never deletes other users accounts. Even in the extremely rare circumstances that a member reaches a 100% warning level, they are simply locked out of their account. The only times a user's username or avatar does not appear is when the account has been deleted. When we lock a person's account the account itself remains active, with the user's username and avatar visible for everyone to see.
What you're seeing in this thread is what appears to be a high number of people who have willingly deleted their own accounts of their own volition (and if you look back through any thread started 4-5 years ago you will probably see other deleted accounts there too). This happens from time to time, and the mods are rarely informed that the person is leaving. The person simply chooses to close their account. I wish I could tell you why but they don't tell us. But it's their choice. What is worth remembering is that every deleted account looks the same and some people post in the same threads a lot, so it's very probable that a lot of the deleted user posts in this thread could belong to just one or two different people, but it's hard to tell.
I would also add that while I can assure you it is very, very rare that any posts are deleted (and those that are contained, for example, a very inappropriate racial slur), there are no deleted posts in this thread that I am aware of. A deleted post is not visible to anybody, even the mods. It's just gone. It's also worth mentioning that any member (including you) can voluntarily delete their own post too, much like accounts, so if there are any missing posts then it is highly likely the user him/herself decided they didn't want to keep the post. I did this myself in the days before I was a mod here.
The "destruction" you see in this thread is simply the result of old members leaving the forum and newer members choosing not to post here. I can see why you thought what you did though. And I'm sorry for rambling on for so long but I thought it important to explain the situation to you fully.

Also, just flipping through this thread, most of the deleted posts seem to be primarily **** ****** updates, all posts by one member - @imperialheathen - the previous owner of The **** ******.
It's not even a bunch of users deleting their accounts, it's one - specifically someone who publically stated he was stepping away from Doctor Who and its fandom. So there's no real mystery as to why he deleted his account!
