Creating "Death Threads" for MDS entries

I'm not sure what a MSP arctial is, but you need to start a thread with the MDS article just because that's the format of the forum...so we all know which specific death is being discussed without having to search the entire thread for a link.
[/quote] And we get to read the same thing over and over again.I don't get it.

[/quote] I'm not understanding. If you click on the "new" button on the thread, it will take you directly to where you last left off in that thread.

So if we submit a death, can we then go ahead and start a thread?

I just submitted one, my first.

No wait until it is posted on the main page.  If you want, PM me the details and I will add it now for you.  Mike controls the death inbox and I might not get it sent to me for awhile.

Just shot a PM off.  :)  A day of firsts, my first MDS PM, lol.  :-P

Hi this happened near me=http://mydeathspace.com/article/2009/10/09/Victor_Steen_(17)_died_when_he_fled_from_police_,_ was_tasered,_crashed_his_bicycle_and_was_run_over_ by_police_cruiser

I tried to add a comment but it just took me to the forum.  I searched for Victor Steen  from there and found nothing.

I was going to add this= http://www.nwfdailynews.com/video/?videoId=68768737001&lineupId=1173350727

sorry if i goofed up somehow.

There hasn't been a thread started on that one. The 'add a comment' thing is a little misleading. It takes you to the forum so you can make the thread.  :-D

I'll start it for you.

I didn't understand that either..  I don't know how to start a thread but I wanted to add a comment on someone's article today and it brought me back to the forum.  I will give it a try now I guess!

I don't know if I'm missing something and there is an easy way to start an article or not, but I just open two windows and copy from one and paste into the other to start them.

[size=14pt]#1[/size] When talking about a specific article on MyDeathSpace.com, you must always provide a link to the MDS article, not their MySpace page, not the original news article... the MyDeathSpace.com article. Your thread title MUST match the article heading on the MDS article. If there is not enough room to fit the entire title, modify it as you see fit.

Bad thread title: Heath Ledger died.

Good thread title: Heath Ledger (28) died from an accidental overdose of prescription pills in a New York City apartment 

[size=14pt]#2[/size] Once you have chosen a thread title, you need to copy and paste the URL/link from the MDS article in the body of your thread. That way, the thread will link up with the MDS entry.

[size=14pt]#3[/size] Do not include punctuation at the end of your thread title.


Note: You can always your original post to fix any mistakes you've made.


If you do not follow these simple rules, your post may be deleted.

Everytime I try to do this, I fuck up somehow.  I always want to comment on a death but if i am the first one, no can do.  Is it because I am still new and haven't posted enough?  Or am I just internet retarded?

If you're in the "Article Discussion" section of the forum, look on your right side for the "New Topic" tab. Then you're all set.
