just making an observation and comment on this wonderful creation of an online community...
it appears that the words "Upright Citizens Brigade" are missing from the domain name, title and the immediate description of "The Improv Resource Center" and "Improv Message Boards"...
I don't intend for this post to create drama (or dare I say a "scene") but it seems to me that if the moderator of this community wanted to take the extra step in being a "Fair and Balanced" message board, there would be an acknowledgement of the affilliation with the UCB and UCB Theater. It should be plainly stated in both the title and the immediate decription.
In my opinion, it would not be just extra words added to the title and description, but it would clarify the source of moderation and the underlying community directly involved...
It also adjusts the truthfulness of what people are getting involved with and participating in (improvisors AND non-improvisors). It in fact is not THE improv resource center, but it is the improv resource center, as maintained by a major member of the UCB Theater.
and I think signing on to the UCB-IRC, would contribute to the pride of UCB students, provide more publicity for the UCB Theater and Classes, and draw in other improvisors and non-improvisors in a more truthful manner and allow them to open up more about where THEY are coming from.
but what do I know, I'm just a beatboxer...
