- The boards have grown to have an actual website, located at http://www.geocities.com/tbcsregulars/sboard.html. that includes pages for each board, clubs, a Creatures of the Night page, and some board-fic.
The Spoiler Board
Angel X was also the Cross & Stake's spoiler source. She posted spoilers to her personal website AngelicSlayer.com and board members often discussed her updates on the Spoiler Board of the BC&S. In June 2002, Angel X is believed to have received a Cease & Desist letter from Fox. Angel X had to remove all spoilers and galleries from her website.[1] This had an impact on posting in the Spoiler Board. Angel X may have advised board members that screenshots and detailed spoilers (portions of scripts) could no longer be posted on the boards. [2]
