The site and forums are newly administrated by user "VEXINGMODSTWO".
The site includes a discussion forum, the "Battle for the Island" (BFTI) game, gallery, spoilers, easter eggs, actor profiles, links, character profiles, and episode recaps.

Battle For The Island
Battle For The Island is the Stationzer0 official forum game. It plays out over periods of around a month, and has currently finished it's sixth run. Abbreviated to BFTI by regulars, the game involves skill, trust, tactical play and the ability to extract clues from messages and summaries. With competitors separated into two groups, Losties and Others, the game is simple: the first team to eliminate the other team stands victorious. Game play usually changes slightly from game to game, but is explained before each BFTI starts. You may choose your own character, and will be distributed a unique account, with a unique avatar and description. The faster you register, the more wide the choice of characters available.
RPG
Stationzer0 also plays host to an original RPG created and maintained solely by the members or its forum. The RPG was started in August 2006 just after the creation of the forums, by members such as Losty09, who is the main moderator and organizer for the RPG, Sun Ray, and Hugos_Brother. Since the start, the RPG has expanded significantly. Contributers to the RPG create their own original character from scratch, this being one of the main rules, and tell their story through individual posts. The RPG takes place in 'days' with each thread equaling one day and night, posts must follow on from each other to continue a coherent and developing storyline. The RPG is unique, as it involves a large amount of player communication through the forum's private messaging system to ensure that there are many Lost-esque twists and surprises to the story, yet they are still kept a secret from many of the players to keep the story interesting.
The RPG follows the basic storyline of the television show, as it is based on a mysterious island, concerns the stories of the castaways and their conflicts with The Others, and contains flashbacks to the characters previous lives. However, an effort has been made to keep the story original; this included inventing completely original locations for the characters to explore. Including The Hydra, which was conceived as a major storyline in the RPG months before the Hydra was originally shown on Lost. This hatch was also flooded in a similar way to The Looking Glass at the end of Season 3, however, this also happened many months before. Other similarities include a communications and electronics expert named Mikhail, similar to Lost's Mikhail. These have led to a running joke between the members and RPG players, that the writers have run out of ideas and are secretly stealing them from the Stationzer0 role-playing game.
