With star power at Kotaku comes the ability to create your own page here on Kotaku. I did it with our Lost Forum. Others have done it to create, well⦠thatās the problem. Star commenters, letās try thisā¦
You have the power to make your own discussion pages. Go to our front page, type something in that white box atop the page, and apply a Twitter-style hashtag. Just the # mark, and then the name of your page (punctuation doesnāt matter).
Let it marinate for about five minutes. Thatās how long itāll probably take for the page to start.
Then⦠come to this Make-A-Page Monday post and tell everyone about it. In no time, youāll be running your very own Kotaku discussion page.
If you want to contribute to these pages, just follow the link, which should look like: http://lastchance.cc/tag/NAMEOFTAGPAGE/ and youāll be part of the conversation. Donāt forget to expand your commenting options so you can see all the posts. (Donāt use some commenting URL. Yes, Iām looking at you, TableTop Tuesdays!)
Two caveats:
1) We donāt yet have a list of tag pages, so, no we canāt just rank the coolest ones. Thatās the point of this post.
2) You canāt just add the name of a tag page to your comment elsewhere on the site and expect it to appear on the tag page. So if you want to contribute to #LostTalk, for example, you need to go to the #LostTalk page.
So create those pages, folks, and let us know what you have. Every once in a while weāll post another reminder like this so you can tell folks about your page. Start those pages. Cherish them. Water them daily. And let the world know how lovely they are.
UPDATE
And youāve now created some! Anyone can join the discussion at the following pages:
#photographers (For the photographers out there)
#importtalk (To discuss Japanese imports)
#FightOfMetalGear (A webcomic)
#DiscussionPages (To list these pages. Clever!)
And so many more⦠see them all getting listed below in the comments.
