Somewhere in the vast Usenetic Ocean, a small, lonely ship sails through
the flames and spam serenely, the noble R.A.A.Creative. Its able captain,
Megazone, is responsible for the smooth operation of the ship and the good
morale of its crew.

For a little over a month now, Captain Megazone has been stuck in the
bowels of this ship, pumping the bilge of Reality from its hold and trying
to keep the ship from foundering entirely. However, without his guiding
hand at the prow, the ship has gone adrift, and its stalwart crew have
begun to worry.

There is even talk... GASP... of MUTINY.

Scattered voices here and there, from both battle-scarred veteran and
fresh-faced idealists, speak of the possibility of commandeering the ship
and steering it into the turbulent Alt Stream. For now, the majority
counsels patience, for soon Megazone shall return to his proper place and
surely save the ship from an untimely demise. 

And as all this muttering and drifting continues, we the readers look to
the horizon from our tiny, scattered islands, and we gaze longingly for the
sign of sail which heralds the return of that noble ship, laden with a load
of fanfics for us to enjoy.

How much longer, oh noble Captain, shall we wait?

Or shall we be forced to penetrate those treacherous waters of the Alt
Stream, risk the flames and spam and dig through a pile of bickering to
find that elusive gem which is a good fanfic?

...

...Okay, I'm done now. Have patience, people, and Zoner... c'mon, show us a
sign of life or something. Just one little SM or Ranma fic, even... }:-{D
