Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

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.

Okay! Thanks so much, Admin! I'll shoot them an email.

Why do some of my posts have this at the top?:

P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }

 

I'm no expert. It may be some code copied from whatever software you used to create the message. Did you copy and paste your message into the Chatterbox window? On my Mac, I can get rid of unwanted code by changing the copied text to Plain Text.

Is there a reason that we don't have accounts here? I've been spending a bunch of time on reddit and tumblr and have really liked not having to put in a name and stuff when I post things. Also the voting system. It would make things here go a lot more simpler, and make it easeir to organise stuff in the various pages.

Please?

Admin: Hey doctor! I know!!! We hope to incorporate features like that someday, but we don't have the technical resources right now.

I know a lot of people ask this but why do aome of the new threads dissapear after a couple of hours? I even looked at the last one but it wasn't there.

Whenever someone makes one of the first posts on a thread, it goes down down down to the last few pages. It's really frustrating, because you have to hunt for it and post on the thread in order to push it back up. That's why so many threads have "TOP" posts around the beginning. An easy way to find the thread is click the "Submitted by" at the top to the columns of titles once or twice, and you'll get a list of the threads by time. Then you can top it.

Hello admin! I was wondering how someone can start a new thread- is it a special privelage or something? I can't find it anywhere (that might be a good thing to add to the FAQs).

Thanks! 

Anyone can start a new thread. Go to cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox. Select one of the sections such as This Month, Chirp at Cricket, Pudding's Place, etc.

On the screen that then appears, look for the colored box near the top left and the sentence "Click here to talk about" XXX. Click there and you'll get the form for starting a new thread.

@Admins:

Is there an easier way to find RPs and stuff in the Inkwell etc.? Cuz my Galaxy RP took forever to find, scrolling through all of those pages.

 

You can to a Google search. In the search window type:

 site:cricketmagkids.com text you want

 

Instead of "text you want" put a few exact words from the thread you're trying to find.

@Admin(s?)

Is there just one or more than one Admin? 

More, mostly two, but a third one helps when needed.

If we make Crowd Sorcery a feature, could we do votes like Fred and Emily did?

 

I'm not sure that Cricket will organize another vote, but you all can certainly organize your own way of selecting characters and writing stories. That's what Chatterbox is all about!

What's going on with the CAPTCHA? It's like it's having a disco party or something.
