Fan Club
The Official B5 Fan Club
E-mail: b5FanClub@aol.com
The Babylon 5 Fan Club has been caught up in the bankruptcy of Netter Digital, which ran the operation. It's not doing anything right now. "Since as far as I know the orders had to be processed by hand, I don't believe anyone's cards are being charged," J. Michael Straczynski told online fans on 6 October 2000. "I've asked several times for them to take the [web]site offline until this is straightened out. It should be attended to soon."

The Zocalo Today
Babylon 5's much-loved fan e-newsletter has a message board at http://www.isnnews.net/board. Topics have been set up for this week's discussion, upcoming conventions and a general Zocalo Today area where any topic can be posted and responded to directly.
"Topics can be added as needed," explains editor Sandra Bruckner, whose remarkable continued dedication to babylon 5 surely desrves some kind of award. "There are already some great topics on the board created by the ISN News staff, covering B5 and Crusade. A few brave souls have left messages already. Please give it a try and let me know what you think!"

AOL shut down its Babylon 5 Forum in February 2000.
Though many will not mourn its passing -- Babylon 5 Magazine received several complaints about the service while it was open -- some will miss it. And it's strange that given the recent AOL-Warner partnership, B5 should lose out!
"B5 was not the only forum removed from the service," commented Zocalo Today editor Sandra Bruckner, "but for many, it was a place where they could look for information or chat or leave messages for other Babylon 5 or Crusade fans. I hope that some will wander over here to The Zocalo Today for their B5 fix of the day/week/month... So stay tuned, and tell your AOL friends about us."
