FRESH ASK ADMIN

So yeah, this is the new AA thread, and I will ask the Admin: What happened to my post asking if I could make a movie about the CB? Are you guys discussing it?

Right. I opened it after 5 on Friday. So no one is likely to see the query till at least Monday morning.

@ Admin:

How come the picture for the July/August issue isn't up on the website yet? 

 

I'm not sure, but I'd guess that the person who posts it has been busy with other things. I'll send a reminder.

Hi, Admin

I'm having a problem where I start using italics or bold and no matter how many times I click on them, they don't turn off. It happens here on the CB. How can I turn them off or is this a problem you guys will have to fix? 

 

No one else has reported this problem, Ellie. Log off then come on again and see if that helps. I don't know what else to suggest. But your comments are welcome without any italics or bold type. The content is most important.

I've logged off and logged back on, but the problem still happens. Thanks 4 your advice, though.

Hi, Admin. It's me again.

Lately sometimes, when I'm submiting a comment, it says I am doing this on December 31, 1969. Weird, huh? Did the CB even exist back then? Either I'm having a problem or I've traveled back in time. Can you fix this?

 

Chatterbox was not around in 1969. Even Cricket magazine didn't start until 1973. The old dates show up every now and then, not only for you. We don't know how to fix it. Just don't believe all the dates you see here. Sorry about that.

At the beginning of the magazine, in the Letterbox, there is a place that you put post from the CB. How do you decide which posts go on there?

Admin: As we moderate the CB, we keep a list of quotes that might work for the magazine—we're not looking for anything in particular, just cool/funny/interesting lines that show Cricket readers all the cool/funny/interesting things you all do on here!

Admins, do you make the magazine?

Admin: We all work on Cricket, and some of us work on Spider and others!

I know that Cricket and hsi gang sometimes appear on Chatterbox, but do characters from other magazines ever appear, like Kokopelli or Spider? If not, do those magazines have there own chatterboxes?

Ok, Admin. Sorry to post on this again. I made 2 posts on here yesterday, and I saw them on here yesterday, but they are gone today.  Can u tell me what happened to them? Sorry to post on this again.

Admin, if the CB were to gain worldwide attention and become such a high-traffic site that it would take one person years to post one day's worth of comments, what would you guys do about it?

That's one the bosses would have to figure out. I'd do my best in my alloted hours, but I'd still need to eat and sleep and do other things. But I don't believe in stressing out over things that are very unlikely to happen.
