=) Here is what the site has to offer:

Uh, wrong.

The Simpsons Writers Consortium is fully automated for members/authors
--and allows you to post scripts and give feedback instantaneously. Now,
you can change your information immediately. AND--the content is 100%
pure Simpsons. You can't beat that =) (This site has been open for a
full month now, so no discussion as to who copied who)

Let me clarify something. This person's website is for FINISHED scripts
of several TV shows--many of them from Fox.

The Simpsons Writers Consortium is an online AUTOMATED writer's group,
where members post WORKS IN PROGRESS for critique by other members. Each
member works on a project until complete--and the script is posted
(after a majority vote--Is the script as good as it can be?)

SWC's purpose is manyfold: To sharpen each person's writing/critiquing
abilities; to learn the craft of writing; to create quality Simpsons
scripts; and, ultimately, to change the mind of the Simpsons Production
office about hiring readers for fan-fiction.

Star Trek had their fan-fiction readers, and some fans even had scripts
produced! (John Whelpley--"Suddenly Human", David Kemper--"Peak
Performance") Legal hassles are a cop-out. If one screwball can't make
a difference, maybe MANY can. We are over thirty members strong; come
join today--it's free. No banners anywhere on the site. There are SEVEN
works in progress.

High profile members include: Kevin Scromeda and Kyle Noskovik, who
posted a GREAT fan-fic on this NG.

Thanks for your time.
