I was also thinking, maybe we should make this a stickied topic in the fanfic folder... minimizes the work for TE-avoiders (of which I am one!). Enter the folder, check for a new post to the stickied thread, and go from there.
And the first post in the thread can be a short explanation of what tank endings are, and how to deal with them, as an author and a reader. That'll help the newbies catch on quickly, I hope.
This plan *will* require an extra step from authors -- they'd have to send a note first, and then wait til the notice was posted before posting their TE. And I know it'll be hard to wait once you've got something that's ready to post
But an e-mail to admins@lcficmbs will reach seven of us (currently) and the first one to see it will handle it, so I don't think it should be too much of a delay. And speaking as an author, I'd like to avoid offending my audience if I can
No, it's not a perfect solution... but it's the closest thing we've been able to think of. All suggestions respectfully considered
