RATSA actually hosts messages and posters for all four ABC soaps -- Port Charles, All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital. The diverse composition of the groups make for a friendly environment in which a respectful exchange of opinions is encouraged and practiced. Lest that sound too darn serious, we have also been known to have a rousing good time every now and again. A good sense of humor is always an asset but never required.
Our little corner of the newsgroup is set apart from the other soaps by subject matter (OLTL) and because our new posts include the abbreviation OLTL: in the subject line. That way, the whole newsgroup can more easily recognize that a post with the subject line Will is a Baddie is about Will Rappaport, not Will Cortlandt; or What's Happened to Kevin? refers to OLTL's Kevin Buchanan and not PC's Kevin Collins.
So sit back, relax, pick a topic, click a button, and prepare to enter the behind-the-scenes world of RATSA/OLTL. If you want fun, just Ask Dorothy (that's FOC Dorothy Hayes). If you want to learn more about RATSA posting practices, see the RATSA FAQ. And if you want to see who our favorites are -- to whom you can write to officially declare your support of a particular OLTL character -- click through to the FOC List. All the topics have something to offer to enhance your RATSA reading experience so....enjoy!
