 WOKJ mainsite updates - Moderating Team Updates!
http://wokj.worldofkj.com/I couldn't quite get it to work with the old domain, so for the time being this will have to do (Worldofkj.com also now redirects to this) We have an Aquaman review by publicenemy#1 and a few box office articles by me. If you would like to write for the site submissions are welcome!

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
Last summer's Jumanji? Might want to edit your Aquaman vs Mary Poppins Return article. Good job on the main site

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
It would be more legit imo if the articles had the authors names at the top.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
Great work from Shack on this.
Loving the look and it will only be fine tuned from here. We'll be adding more content over time so stay tuned.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
zwack has a point about the writer name - but they’re often at the bottom when syndicated (just written differently, without the ‘by’ written beforehand). Although, taking on some routine blog format wouldn’t improve anything. The simplicity you guys are going for is a surprising breath of fresh air.
I really like the conversational tone of Adrian’s review (guessing that’s publicenemy? - had no idea he could write so well). Amplify that aspect; minimise the trying-to-sound-like-a-critic affectation (which isn’t there really but it might be something to consider). A casual - and grammatically engaging - voice is more fun to read than someone trying to be smart; they say critical sophistication is a process of mental refinement, coming up with more interesting ways to describe something, rather than the justification of pretentiousness (which can turn into sophistry, etc.) that enterprising new critics can sometimes fall into.
Anyway, hard to fault the site fellas. Very solid effort, looking forward to more.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
Thanks for the nice words on the review ya'll, I kinda rushed in writing it so glad it ended up being something on the main page, which looks great.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
It is a nice and clean aesthetic, but it has already fallen several days out of date. The main site is just never going to be anything.

Most times I can't access the forum from the main page. The option menu isn't there. I have to use the old web browser to get there

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
Maybe we can put up a top 10 movies of 2018 from one of us?

We do have a top ______ of 2018 list from a different artform coming up this week. There are several articles in the works, but I think many people were too busy over Christmas to write, my original plan was to fill in the gap with my own article but I also was busy. I would be happy if the mainsite posts over 52 articles in 2019. Some weeks would have 2 or 3, while occasionally there may be a week with 0 if things come up.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
How about a featured thread, maybe one with the most responses. Might bring in more people to check out the forum.

 Re: The new WOKJ mainsite is LIVE
Uhh you guys might wanna add a link to the forum on the main site - literally nothing connects the two pages except the letters wokj in the domain name.
