There appears to be some longstanding confusions regarding the monthly blog banters. I just wanted to take a few minutes to clear somethings up.
Anyone can suggest a topic.
Let the current custodian know if you have a good idea for a banter. Currently that's me, Drackarn. You can email to my character name at gmail.com, use the IG mail, Twitter, this blog or even find me at Fanfest! I usually take 3 or 4 potential topics and email a couple of other players who are very active "banterers" and see which is the most popular.

Anyone can join any banter.
They are not by invitation, you simply post your own response to the topic. There is a mailing list if you want to know what the question is a few days before the banter goes live but you don't need to be on it to take part. If you see people talking about it and you want to express your opinion then go ahead!

There is no time limit.
If you want to join in the banter a week or two after the start why not! The more the merrier! You'll be added to the main post if you let me know you've posted. Obviously there is greater interest in the week the banter goes live but there is nothing to stop you adding your 2 cents/penneth/euros or whatever currency you use to the topic!

You don't need to follow the title exact.
Its nice if you include Blog Banter or BBnn but call it what you want. In fact its good to go with your own title and make it stand out from the crowd. If everyone calls their post the same thing then its a bit boring.

Tell People You've Contributed
Make sure you post your banter in the comments of the main post on the current custodian's blog so that they can add it to the list of participating blogs.
