==HISTORY==
==History==


Modern Boylover Magazine began on [[Boylover.net]] (2002-2009), and published its first issue in July 2006. MBM was started by SimbaLion, who was Entertainment Coordinator of BLN forums at the time. He went through great efforts to get members involved in various aspects of the magazine, including the title, and choice of cover art, etc. Members were given a set of Guidelines and a deadline for submitting written works. Once members' contributions had been recieved, a PDF was created, and published on a subdomain of BLN. Unlike the 'members only' format of the forums, the magazine was made available to all, without needing to register on the website.  
SimbaLion formed Modern Boylover Magazine in 2006<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20181010111834im_/https://ethosonline.net/issues/mbm/jpg/1/mbm-issue-1-p01.jpg Modern Boylover Magazine issue 1, cover] Retrieved October 10, 2018</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20181010111834im_/https://ethosonline.net/issues/mbm/jpg/1/mbm-issue-1-p02.jpg Modern Boylover Magazine issue 1, inside cover] Retrieved October 10, 2018</ref> while he was Entertainment Coordinator for BLN, and pushed out its first issue in July of that year. MBMs content came from BLN members who were given a set of guidelines and a deadline for submitting written works. Issues of MBM were hosted under a public subdomain of the BLN website.


SimbaLion organized the first 3 issues. The first 2 PDF layouts were created by Cyborg, then Vanitas took over for issue #3. With great use of images and graphics, the PDFs created by Vanitas have the look and feel of a magazine that you might see in a store. Underdog took over organizing the magazine in late 2007, and put together issues #4 & 5. For issue #6, 420Guy took over the role of organizer. With Vanitas still in charge of PDF creation, 420Guy also organized issue #7. Issue #7 would prove to be the final magazine to be produced by the members of BLN.
SimbaLion maintained involvement and management of MBM up until issue 3, where Underdog took over for issues 4 and 5. From issue 6 forward to issue 12, 420Guy managed and organised MBM. At issue 13, RyanJames managed MBM, and for issue 14 it was managed by 420Guy and RyanJames.


After BLN was shut down, 420Guy decided to finish the 8th issue, and keep all the past PDFs online. With help from fellow BLN refugees Ansset and Audric, Modern Boylover Magazine opened its' own website in early January 2010. The 8th issue was released in late March, is dedicated to "LostBoy and the members of Boylover.net", and features articles from past issues, as well as new work.
Initial layout of issues #1 through to #2 was created by Cyborg. Issues #3 to #7 layouts were created by Vanitas. The layout of issue #8, being the first issue after BLN was taken down, was that of several MBM staff members. The majority was produced by 420Guy, though a number of pages were made by Cyborg and Vanitas. Layouts for issues #9, #10, and #11, were produced by Audric. Issues #12 and #13 were produced by 420Guy, and the final issue of MBM was produced by Emerys.


MBM continues to publish new issues through its website. Anyone can write or help with the magazine, you do not need to register anywhere. Various BL Forums have joined the efforts. Each forum involved has a representative, who acts as a co-Organizer.

Modern Boylover Magazine, otherwise known as MBM, was a boylover magazine which ran from July 2006 to December 2015 and published initially through Boylover.net (BLN), but later independently.

History

SimbaLion formed Modern Boylover Magazine in 2006[1][2] while he was Entertainment Coordinator for BLN, and pushed out its first issue in July of that year. MBMs content came from BLN members who were given a set of guidelines and a deadline for submitting written works. Issues of MBM were hosted under a public subdomain of the BLN website.

SimbaLion maintained involvement and management of MBM up until issue 3, where Underdog took over for issues 4 and 5. From issue 6 forward to issue 12, 420Guy managed and organised MBM. At issue 13, RyanJames managed MBM, and for issue 14 it was managed by 420Guy and RyanJames.

Initial layout of issues #1 through to #2 was created by Cyborg. Issues #3 to #7 layouts were created by Vanitas. The layout of issue #8, being the first issue after BLN was taken down, was that of several MBM staff members. The majority was produced by 420Guy, though a number of pages were made by Cyborg and Vanitas. Layouts for issues #9, #10, and #11, were produced by Audric. Issues #12 and #13 were produced by 420Guy, and the final issue of MBM was produced by Emerys.

After BLN was shut down, 420Guy decided to finish the 8th issue, and keep all the past PDFs online. With help from fellow BLN refugees Ansset and Audric, Modern Boylover Magazine opened its' own website in early January 2010. Issue #8 was released in late March. It was dedicated to "LostBoy and the members of Boylover.net", and featured articles from past issues, as well as new work.

MBM continued to publish new issues through its website up until December 2015, when MBM issue 14 was released. Since that time, no further issues of MBM have been released. While MBM was in active operation, each BL forum had an MBM representative who assisted in collecting content for future issues if MBM.

The MBM website was taken down in 2017 for unknown reasons. Since late 2017, Ethos Magazine's website has hosted all 14 issues of MBM.

Notes

Issue 11 was produced with four different front covers, one for each of the participating boards.[3]
