lunar1126 Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 hmm' date='i cannot join,i knew that[/quote'] If you are refering to the fact that your name isn't on the member list on the first post yet, then don't worry. I just haven't got a chance to update it in the past few days. I will add your name, along with all the other new members, soon. Everyone is welcome to join!! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwyneth84 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 hi all what a great idea! this confirms that coldplay fans are the coolest, most caring people on earth!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innocent_Joy Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I would love to join! This is such a good idea... and many people could be helped by it :) Put me on the list :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClearAsCrystal Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Awesome! :cheesy: this cause deserves a thread.... a BIG thanks to everyone who has been watching and helping this grow, thank you CCC "mods" !!!! :kiss: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyssa Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hey! I wanna join! I can't set up my own PayPal account or donate anything without my parents knowing, and they're a bit stingy. -_- But I love you're guy's ideas! Actually, my geography teacher last semester had a little cup that he would use whatever was in it to sponser a child. The whole class would put their spare change in and stuff--it was pretty cool. :) I'd love to help out with graphics 'n stuff though. I've been told I'm kinda good with those things, heh.

twistedlogic149 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Judging by your sig, alyssa, I'd say you are. I can do the same thing you can.. with the divided sig.. it just doesn't look good. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedlogic149 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 By the way... are we really going to "elect" people to jobs? Like it says we are on the first page? That'd be cool. Give everyone different responsibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunar1126 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hey Alyssa, welcome! :nice: Will, yeah we will have things for everyone to do soon! Actually, one thing everyone can start thinking about is a monthly CCC newsletter (like the Coldplay ezine). We'll need to have some people write, edit, design. Some ideas about what we can include are international news articles, editorials, current CCC project updates, and ideas for future projects. Each issue could primarily focus on one story: AIDS, Darfur, Fair Trade, etc. Any other ideas about what can be included? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitepanda Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Oh! Sounds great Nadia. I know that I'd be fully willing to support it. I could design and write a few things for it. I've been told that I'm pretty good at both. I'm also quite the grammar Nazi. :) Of course, we can always deem someone other than a mod as the Editor-in-Cheif! I think it may actually be better that way to get the members very involved. I could be in control of gathering pictures, and any articles that I could possibly contribute. I also thought we could have contests, articles about what Coldplay fans are doing and a secont on just the band and what they're doing for charity. And perhaps a Charity of the Month as well? This will be an awesome idea if we make it work! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an_cat Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Charity of the Month is a great idea Allie! We could write things up about it, give a link to where on the website people can donate, or get involved, etc etc! I'm more than willing to write things for a newsletter. I'm pretty good at researchy stuff, maybe I could write a commentary on ending poverty or AIDS or something every now and then?? :wink3: :lol: I just thought of something that's related to the Charity of the Month idea... What if we did something like "crisis" of the month. Or "country" of the month. Obviously, not talking about developed western world countries here. I mean like focus on an issue, humanitarian crisis or third world country/region that needs attention. Then provide links for everything we can find that pretains to it? That could be worthwhile!

twistedlogic149 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I would love to write something for the newsletter. I love to write. Perhaps if we do this newsletter thing, we can break it down into pairs? Because team-based stuff works better. I.E... two people are assigned a few article to write between them, and they can delegate to each other which ones to write and double-check each other's stuff. IDK, just an idea.

KM Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Okay... since Alyssa is in the same situation I am and is joining, I should too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunar1126 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yeah, you don't have to donate to join. :) For the newsletter, I'll be happy to do research type articles (I love this sorta thing too!), or work on layout. Will, I like your idea for pairing off to write/edit. We could have a sign up sheet every month, where people could put their names down for what they want to contribute. Edit: One more thing...we could have rotating Editor-In-Chiefs who oversee the 'production' of the newsletter each month. Anyone dying to head it up for this month? SPEAK NOW. :borg::lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victaniac Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Anyone know what all the jobs required for producing a newsletter are? I know of Editor-in-chief of course, writers, designers (I guess?) but what else? We can make a list of all of these and people can kind of "apply" for them for our first issue!

x_TheSkyCouldFall Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 hello! i got an pm from an_cat a while ago regarding this, and i thought it was great idea. and there's a whole forum for this now :). i'm into this definately (plus would make me feel better about doing something for good causes), now how do i join ? the banners are very cool also :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Sign me up as well! This is one of the bettter things Coldplaying has done in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calicat Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Publishing a newsletter is a wonderful idea. I'll be happy to pitch in where I can. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anitafranc Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I like the newsletter idea and the charity of the month one too. :) We could have polls for people to vote and that way pick the charity we will be focusing on for the month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamygabb Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I'll join! Even though I cannot participate in the 1.36 CCC, I'll pass out fliers in my neighborhood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
