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.

Crew?  What crew?  Doesn't MegaZone refuse assistance?

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

Alt Stream?

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?

I thought that was what lurkers use the ML for (even though the good fanfics 
are a lot less elusive and there's less flames and bickering).

...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

He shows signs of life.  Just not fanfics.
