Achewood FAQ - Propose Questions Please

The "Dumbrella unpleasantness" can be summed up thusly:

The Achewood board started out OK, but quickly became full of complete shitheads and devolved into a never-ending super-retarded internet fightfest.  Onstad got sick of it and asked rstevens to close it.  Now we are here!  Or to be more accurate, you're all trapped in here with me.

Actually I believe that Achewood is in some weekly papers on the West Coast but, in my effort not to be an insane fanatic, I am NOT going to reread all the interviews to find the one where he mentions this.

In re Dumbrella Achewood endtimes: I was there for quite a while, and it always seemed to me that the board was imploding.

I attributed what happened to Onstad letting each individual comment get into his head. The best thing to do is let your fans be fans and rip each others heads off while you create, blissfully above it all.

It did get a little rowdy and stupid but that's what happens when a bunch of people are allowed to express their opionions. There was a small group of cretinous shitheads but you get that everywhere. Onstad took it a little too personally so now we're here.

1) Is Achewood featured in any print publications? If so, what are they?

At least one paper.

And another part of the Dumbrella issue was that Chris wanted his forum to 100% on-topic and was merciless about locking and even deleting OT threads. And as you can see even us "good eggs" can bare stay on topic in any of our dozen or so fora.

ok, that pretty much sums it up.

as someone not aquainted with it at the time, and thusly "never able to understand"...

i'd recommend NOT putting that link in your faq.

so, the short answer would then be:

Dumbrella is a web-forum for various webcomics.  Onstadt was the moderator for the achewood forum on that site.  he closed forum down when he got bored/tired/pissed-off about it.

Roast Beef
« Reply #52 on: November 05, 2004, 03:28:52 am »
In the episode where Ray asks about Roast Beef's name, Roast Beef explains why he goes by Roast Beef and not by his real name, Cassandra. But he doesn't explain where Roast Beef came from, which was the original question. Where did 'Roast Beef' come from?

It's Beatrice.

And there's your obligatory Frank Zappa reference.
