I have a question. In order to run a thread like this, shouldn't one of you actually have had a somewhat successful thread on ANY internet forum? Not saying it has to be this one, any forum would be tops.

LOl at the bashing to the other side.

How would you compare the top BTBs from here to the top BTB of the other site.

Old question, I know. However, I want to answer the quesiton. It's quite a simple answer too. BTB's here are vastly different in my opinion to those on "the other site". Quality of PPV matches over there are much better then what they are here because there is an unwritten rule of 200 words to 1 minute which works very well, promos here and there are exactly the same while there is clearly much more emphasis on full shows over here as there seems to be some sort of hatred for recaps here when they're just as effective, they're just harder to review. Another thing I've noticed is that matches on normal, weekly shows here in various BTBs are MUCH longer in comparison to those on the "other site". Very seldom do you see match recaps for weekly shows over there longer than 2 or 3 paragraphs, which, in my opinion is all that's needed because I know personally, if I was writing 4 or 5 page matches for every match on a weekly show, I'd get burnt out.

Got a question.

Why all the hate for recaps? :D

My new BTB will probably be recapped, debating whether to do it or not.

So just wondering why all the hate?

Some bookers think it's unfair and the Booker would just be being lazy with recaps. It depends how you do it though.

Unfair? What sort of idiots roam this section?

I mean honestly, that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Fiction is not all about the length, its about the content, and that is best described by this forum at times. A 20 page edition is nothing without quality.

I'm fine with recaps, but I don't know how to write them, just because I want everything to flow. Recaps are OK, but doing full weekly matches could make anyone a better writer.

Read the thread before you make a stupid post Lashley.

If it was the stupidest thing you have ever heard, you don't pay much attention to the world around you.

The hate from me is that in every thread I am seeing how recaps are superior. That's your opinion. Now STFU.

Because you know shit all about the section obviously. Actually read what people have said before you say something. Many people in this section support recaps.

How long was this ago? Actually look at the recent threads. I love how some guy comes in randomly after being gone for ages, and thinks he knows shit. Seriously, people are embracing recaps these days.

Lashley stop spamming this thread, which was actually quite cool before you gave us the displeasure of looking at one of your dumbass posts.
