Subject: No tags that I know of.

I was going to start a system, but got called away. Perhaps missions should be filed by author? And department, and fandom? As in, a DMS mission I wrote for Wicked would be tagged:
author: sedri, fandom: wicked, deparment: dms
Something like that? And then additional tags for community notices, the TIANATDITPPC, and so on? I'll go with that for now and make changes later as need be.

Okay, people, might I make a request? We have two livejournal communities (<a href="http://community.livejournal.com/theppc/">theppc and <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/ppchq/">ppchq) that exist soley for us, to share news and missions and whatnot, in a very simple and efficient manner.
Might I suggest that we actually start to use it?
I have no problem with all PPCers who have LiveJournals friending each other, but it drives me crazy to have filtered friends pages that are full of non-PPC-related posts concerning anything else that's happening in your lives - because, no offense meant, I don't know all of you that well, and I don't have time to sift through post after post looking for missions. A community would be a thousand times easier - that's why they exist.
I realise a lot of people (myself included) want to post missions on their own journals; fine, no worries. But how about making cross-posts to the PPC community(/ies) for missions and the like so that we actually do have a useable alert system for any new missions? It's really not that much extra work.
Besides, both <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/theppc/">theppc and <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/ppchq/">ppc_hq are looking kind of empty. Lonely, even; there are very few updates. Why don't we give them some life back? I'm going to start by making a master post for all my existing missions, so that there's some place other than my directory and our Wiki from which they can be found.
It would be very much appreciated if the rest of you could do the same, at least for all new missions.
(Also, on a more random note, why are there two different communities?)
As soon as I'm sober, or as soon as Trojie's back from Auckland, whichever is first, we'll put together a post for the lj comm with links to all our missions. Is there a tagging system in place there?
