Forum Focus

As we have said on our welcome page one of the reasons this website came into being was to provide a window to our wonderful forum, and to give you an idea of what you would find there. We have members from all over the world, from every time zone, and we are very much a global family. So, whatever time of day it is for you, we have members on board. We are all about fun, even our various challenges are just for practice and enjoyment and we like to think we have something for everybody.

We'd love you to join us if you haven't already, and it's so easy to do! Just follow the link and sign up!

So what would you see? To give you a taster here are just some of the things we get up to!

 

Richard Armitage Boards

Well, we are Richard Armitage Central! We have a career section for each and every role, (including his voicework, which is increasing, much to our intense delight). We keep up to date with every interview, article and piece of news, and of course chat about it all!

We even have a special 'room' just to drool over pictures of Richard! It is extremely popular!

Whenever possible we hold 'live' commentaries and discussions on any new work being aired in the UK, enabling those elsewhere in the world to be involved.

 

The Golden Dragon

We have an online 'pub' where you can congregate and chat about your day.

Three quizzes are held almost every day at times to suit those on different continents. So whether you are in Australia, America, or Europe (or anywhere in between), you are likely to find a quiz running at some point during your evening. They are just for fun, but we love them!

We also have a games room with all sorts of word games, plus individual quiz challenges to test your knowledge on a range of subjects.

Weekly caption contests based on a screencap from our Gallery are incredibly funny and guaranteed to make you smile!

 

Milton & the surrounding countryside

Here we have boards dedicated to talk about films, television, books, art, and music and any other actors that take our fancy. Plus a Joke Shop to make you laugh!

 

Let's Make a Difference

Our members are involved in all sorts of activities to help make this world a better place, ranging from knitting and crocheting for baby charities, to running in the Race for Life each year. There's much more besides, plus all the support and encouragement you could need!

 

Zest For Life

Our lifestyle board, this is where we support each other on diets, have weekly weigh-ins, and talk about exercise and healthy living. We also share recipes; the good, the bad, and the deeply delicious.

 

Notice Board

A place to celebrate, birthdays, anniversaries and any achievements of our members.

 

Fan fiction and Writing

As Richard has proved so inspiring in his many and varied roles, we have a board where members can post their stories and poetry based on his characters. There is a general fiction section for other work too.

We also hold weekly story challenges of varying lengths, fifty nine words, five hundred, and one thousand, some based on a title only, others based on a weekly picture.

See some examples of the stories up to fifty nine words here in The Brief Place.

Examples of our five hundred word stories can be seen here in The PicFic Papers.

Poetry challenges are also popular - in every form we can find. We stretch ourselves to many styles, some of which are even used in our Artwork Challenges (see below.)

You can read some examples from our challenges on the Poetry Page.

 

The Darkroom

For the photographers among us, we have a board for members to post their stunning photographs from all over the globe.

You could even try your hand at one of the Darkroom photography challenges held twice a month. They are very popular and produce fantastic images. To see for yourself browse through the challenge results posted here in the RAC gallery!

 

Artwork and Artwork Challenges

We have many talented members who create the most amazing artwork, all shown in The Studio on the forum. Icons, wallpapers, signatures - they are all here and worth a long visit!

We also hold weekly art challenges for all comers of every level. Ranging from icon or signature challenges, to wallpapers, and even to creating 'cards' to show off poems created in the poetry challenges. If we can think of a challenge, we'll tackle it!

Results to these can be seen in the RAC gallery here.

For 2010 we have made a Guy Calendar and a Lucas Calendar for everyone to enjoy. They are also available in our gallery here!

 

So why not join us?

Whether you just want to drool, read some stories, catch up with the latest news, or join a quiz and chat in the pub, we'd love to welcome you.
