Anything Goes : Streams experience? by Chris Jennifer Wakefield

Hi, Chris Jennifer Wakefield. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Producing Lounge to the Anything Goes Lounge. The Anything Goes Lounge is for discussion about the industry, movies, shows, plays, etc.

I moved your post from the Screenwriting Lounge to the Your Stage Lounge since you posted the same thing in the Producing Lounge. Stage 32 doesn't want members posting the same thing in different discipline Lounges on the same day because it can clog up the Lounges and other members’ posts won’t be seen. If you want to put a post in two discipline Lounges on the same day, change one of the posts significantly. Or you can put one post in a Lounge one day and put the same post in another Lounge on a different day.

I also moved your post from the Producing Lounge to the Your Stage Lounge. The ways to connect with other members in the discipline Lounges (Producing Lounge, Screenwriting Lounge, Filmmaking/Directing Lounge, etc.) are making helpful/educational posts and commenting on other people’s posts.

Let me know if you have any questions.

You could search for producers and other members in Dakota in the Browse Members section (www.stage32.com/people).

You could also check Stage 32's Job Board for writing jobs (www.stage32.com/find-jobs). It gets updated regularly.

The text of your three posts shows up in the Stage 32 phone app but not the web browser. I'm guessing you wrote the post in the app, so you might need to edit the post in a web browser. That way, the text in your posts will show up for members who get on Stage 32 with a browser. You can edit your posts by clicking the downward arrow to the right of your name and selecting "Edit Post."

Fake accounts and scam accounts pop up from time to time. Stage 32 is quick to remove the accounts.

One way to spot a fake account/scam account is if they don't have a profile picture, but that could just mean they haven't had the time to upload one yet.

Another way is to look at their profile bio. If they don't have a bio or their bio is full of typos and grammatical errors, they might be a fake account/scam account, but that's not always the case. Someone people just haven't filled out their bios yet, and English might not be their first language, so that could be why their bios are full of typos and grammatical errors.

Another way to spot a fake account/scam account is to check to see if they're active in the Lounges. If they aren't, it's a sign that they might be a fake account/scam account. That doesn't work all the time though. They might be a new member. Or they might just be busy, and they haven't made any Lounge posts yet.

Sometimes producers, directors, etc. have links to their websites, social media accounts, and IMDb page on their Stage 32 pages. That’s usually a sign that the Stage 32 account is legit, but sometimes a fake account posts the real person’s IMDb page on their Stage 32 page.

The best ways to tell if someone is fake are talking with them on their Lounge posts/through direct message (you should be able to pick up on things that'll show they're fake, like them not knowing certain things about projects they said they worked on) and having a Zoom meeting to see what they look like.

If you see a fake account, scam account, or suspicious account on Stage 32, email support@stage32.com with the person’s name and their Stage 32 profile link. And if someone sends you a scam message (like a producer asking for a producer's fee to make your script), send a screenshot of their message to Support with their name and profile link. Thanks.

ok thanks you. thanks for monitoring .. have a great week..

You're welcome, Chris Jennifer Wakefield. Thanks. Have a great week too!
