Is there a thread here on Specktra that is focused solely on news regarding the Maleficent collection? This forum is a tremendous resource for people trawling the Internet for leaks and updates, but at a certain point it's not even that time-saving if the thread fills up with a lot of unrelated discussion.
Lol this happens in pretty much every thread especially when were wait on news. Its so easy for us to get off track.

I think what I'm looking for is a thread that will notify me only if there is news. I mean, no one has a gun to their heads being forced to meet a postcount quota on this thread. Sometimes, silence is golden. Chitchat can happen anywhere. In the interests of avoiding hypocrisy, this will be my only reply on this subject.
Yeah im late with this but gather some blog websites like Temptalia off google n check them daily. Thats the only solution. I think we all ARE on topic because we are still talking makeup and the makeup industry. If you dont like that people are talking about things other than Maleficent then leave the thread. I dont understand why you have to be so butt hurt about it.

I saw someone mention that Violetta is showing as coming soon, and this just hit me. Sin is also shown as coming soon and it has been for a while (trust me, I have been wanting it and stalking for it to come back). I wonder if it is one of the lipsticks in this collection.

Just have to point out that Specktra is a community, in the "internet community" sense and also in the real world sense of there being a lot of really great people who've befriended each other in these forums. If your only interest are the leaks and updates, you're better off waiting a day or two and getting all that from the bloggers who pass the news from here along in their blogs. If you feel like getting into the swing of things and chit chatting about makeup and random silliness here and there, among friends, stick around and jump in!

Okay, I've gone back on my word and posted a third time, but it is to apologize. Previously, I was just quietly frustrated, clicking on this thread every time it was updated, hoping there was news, only to find people getting offended at one another about sales experiences in different stores (?) or other unexpected tangents. But now that I've said the wrong thing, and made a few of you come forward in defence of the way you do things, I understand that this is what makes the community work. I'm sorry I had an unfair expectation of what this forum thread was for. I recognize that it's a lot more fun to be free and talk about what you want in the lull between news cycles. I also want to say that my feelings were hurt by the way some people reacted to what I wrote. I am not interested in censoring anyone; I was just hoping that someone could point me to a thread where the signal-to-noise ratio was closer to what I was expecting. I feel kind of misunderstood and that my sentiments were taken the wrong way. I hope I have cleared that up, in the spirit of being free to speak our minds. For what it's worth, as much as I felt kind of bad about being misinterpreted, I feel like I learned something about what makes this forum go around, and have come around somewhat to your point of view. I hope there will be no more bad feelings.
Hey, at least you apologized. That's a lot more than many other people do. Your words were pretty harsh. But it's okay we all get snippy sometimes! You should join in on the chit chat! Conversations go into a million different directions, I'm sure you'd find something interesting to join in on. :)

Hmmm, wonder what tomorrow's drama will be? At least it won't be fake Mac pic or discourteous sale staff. Need to start a forecasting pool, lol. If everyone just lurk since 2007 I wonder how interesting this forum would be
Omg the drama never ends. But I'm happy riri is done I think that brought THE most drama!!! I didn't even want to be apart of the site anymore! It was so annoying. I ended up mostly private messaging with people

*skipping around pretending not to notice all the drama that's occurred in the couple of days I haven't had a chance to check this thread, while continuing to remain eternally thankful that I didn't bother with the Riri thread since I had zero interest and therefore avoided the Ririgate drama*

Sleeping Beauty is definitely one of my favorite Disney movies too!! Speaking of Once Upon a Dream, there have already been comments here about what a beautiful song that is, but am I the only one who wishes I had a speaking voice like Aurora/Mary Costa? I don't know if it was the way sound recorded back in the day or what, but I've always wished my voice sounded like that!

Just my

on the ''chit chat'': I don't mind off topic chatter, I'm one to easily go there as well. I think it makes this forum lively and helps building a community. I was a very active member on another beauty related site for years (even more active than I am here) and I felt like it died down because off topic chatter wasn't really welcomed there (anymore). I ended up deleting my account.
I understand that it sometimes can be a little annoying, for example if several pages of a collection thread are filled with pet pics (that doesn't mean we don't want to see your pets!) but I personally think as long as it isn't like ten pages non stop OT chat it should be tolerated. (again, just my pesonal opinion!) Nonetheless:

I would like to encourage everyone to start a thread in the Chat section of Specktra if there is anything you would like to talk about!

I don't think I have a favourite Disney princess or character, I should say. I never really related or took to a specific Disney character, as a child. I love Alice In Wonderland. I was obsessed with Alice and the whole story, as a kid. Kind of still am, lol. That would be amazing, if MAC did an Alice In Wonderland collection.

Ursula has to be my all time favorite Disney character. Even though when I was a kid the most watched movies were The Goonies, Charlie and the chocolate factory, babes in toy land , and the wizard of oz.
