I haven't recieved your reply from the PM I've posted... resend? *slaps phpBB*

Yes, I did say "stop the personal attacks". Does "He didn't reply..." count as a personal attack? No. Just a statement.

Much sorriness Tongue. I was... errr.... yeah. Anyways, what I said was basically:

Quote:With second semester beginning and me needing to get out and look for jobs and stuff, I cannot devote the time to this that it needs...
(etc...)

Anyway, I don't think this is a "non-starter", this is just a chance for a person with more time to take over and be more devoted to it...

Unfortunately, he's just PM'ed me to say he can't anymore... Sad

I may work on it but not in the very near future.

Now that QBCM is on its last legs (Matthew R. Knight said that the next issue will probably be the last), and QB On Acid has merged with V Planet!, there aren't anymore QB magazines out there.

It's quite a contrast from '99 / '00 when there were about ten different QB e-zines getting published in some caliber.

Now more than ever I think we should all should band together and make another magazine!

There definitely are people who will write for one... Relsoft just wrote an awesome series of 3D tutorials for QB Cult Magazine, which unfortunately didn't get published there...and I know Zap was submitting articles to QBCM in hopes that it will inspire them to do another issue. And I would be willing to write some articles too.

Combine this with all of the people who said they'd do articles last summer when you discussed this, and you'd have a pretty slick magazine going.

Anyway, I just wanted to revive this topic...It's a shame nothing ever came of this... there was so much potential and so many (potential) contributors here.

"Does the QB community need another e-zine?" I definitely say yes!
