Sparklies was a multishipping Spike forum in the Buffyverse fandom. Sparklies later expanded to include discussion related to other fandoms.

With many insightful posts on All. Things. Spike. this forum is quintessence of wickedly sophisticated wit and all-encompassing erudition.[1]

History

Sparklies did not come from the fall of Wendy’s spoiler board, it grew out of the Fan Forum thread for BtVS Spoilers (and the corresponding chatroom). Wendy frequented our chat room/message board, but as I said, she was the only source Bub had. She would get the scripts and then upload them and share them with us. She also had access to the casting sides, so even if we didn’t have the full scripts, we usually had several pages to work with (that was our main source of spoilers for AtS S5)[2]
