Here ideas for the previous thread:

• argument between two people about what qualifies as vaporwave
• comic of aliens discovering earth via agora road forums and being persuaded to not vaporize the planet because we're so batshit its too amusing to destroy
• what if colors could talk
• a digital cyber e-virus strikes agora road and only one brave shitposter can stop total cyber domination
• a banana gets bitten by a spider and becomes spider banana, however due to unfortunate genetics coupled with less-than-ideal parenting the banana is predisposed to unethical behavior and becomes kinda evil and terrorizes local villagez
• Articles (riddles, interviews, poems, short stories, serial episodic novellas, music/book/game/etc reviews, net lore, tech, how to, thought experiments, theories, opinion pieces, current events, paranormal, music theory, history, philosophy, etc)
• Art (backgrounds, doodles with transparent background, character art, object art, anything)
• Nostalgia
  This should be composed of any articles, items you want to talked about, or memories of your childhood.
• Internet Oddities
  Can be anything atleast mildly interesting on the internet, lolcows, interesting communities, this is a great example https://forum.agoraroad.com/index.p...ial-experiment-in-the-making-since-2005.3508/
• Album Reviews
  I would prefer you review albums or tracks from your fellow agora road travelers like here https://forum.agoraroad.com/index.php?threads/august-2021-music-artists-thread.3479/ but it is not required
• Aesthetic Galleries
  Post any art that you made, I'm thinking of doing a theme for this so make some Y2K aesthetic style art.
• Opinion
  Anything you want to talk about whether it be about current events or a key lime pie recipe
• Short Stories
  This are fiction stories that you would want to write about.

Seeing the Blockland thread of mine, I wonder if the Sporums were still around I'd try to make a showcase on THAT Wackjob of a forum.

Before you start turning heads at me, The "Sporums" was just the original forum site for fans of the ill-fated game; Spore as there exists a genuine for that game even after all these years. I tried to dip my toes into that community. Uh, I think there is a reason why I refer the community as a "wackjob"

Spoiler: An actual kid on there told me this, I still remember this fucking post in the back of my head whenever I think of this community, no bull!

I'm fifteen years old and I draw naked ladies in my art and if you're going to argue about it, here's hard proof posts actual deviantART profile in post

I am interested in contributing. I'd like to read the previous 2 issues first, however. Do I have to sign up to issuu.com to do so? I wouldn't mind, but I'd like to request straightforward downloadable copies on behalf of those that might.

Yes

Perhaps my 2 remaining brain cells aren't able to figure it out exactly, but upon trying to view the zines I am getting:
"Publication access is currently limited. Limitation will be handled by the publisher, and the publication may be accessible again later."
I can neither view (beyond the covers) nor download them.

Okay apparently issues changed their terms on anything over 50mb will be limited. Which is super lame. But thankfully I have the Dropbox link and will edit the OP

Fuck yeahhhh this is what I had been waiting for! Will dump some stuff once I have the chance.
Also, I sent an article pitch to the Economist a few days ago. Got hard rejected in just 1.5 days. I then remembered you guys and how you put my schizo shaggy dog story in the last zine. I again realized that you are the real G's

You mutherfugger. Read them recently. I'm so happy I caught-on early, or I would have been pissed to have fallen for it. Didn't help that it was the first zine I was reading, and it appears near the start, made me assume I was supposed to take it somewhat seriously.

HAHAHAHHAH IM HONORED! Thank you so much for reading, lol! My aim was to write something like Alice's Restaurant Massacree but more schizo with less sense!

 

[ThyOde17]

Maybe this time I should actually participate on ezine #3 lol.

 

[WKYK]

I have some fun poetry/short story ideas, if I submit would you want a pdf file in the dropbox? And would you want me to add aesthetics myself or just send the raw text? Never done a zine before but the first two look amazing

 

[RisingThumb]

Submitted a short philosophical text talking about Kant's Categorical Imperative, Jesus' Golden Rule and Kierkegaard's Aesthetics vs Faith problem difficulty for the zine last night. Also a bumpy-reminder for other folks about the zine

 

[VaporwaveHistorian]

Bumpin! I'm excited for this! Submitted a bunch, might submit more!
