Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

THE ASK ADMIN

THE ASK ADMIN THREAD!!!!!!

Ok, so there are tons of threads made to ask Admin a particular question. I thought: why doesn't someone just make ONE thread for ALL the questions? So, here it is!

My first question: Can't the Admins make some sort of search thing inside this website so that we can look for a certain thread? Because I was going to revive several, and they got stuck somewhere between the page they were on and the first page. I don't really feel like looking through all the pages again... 

=^..^= 

 

Our Webmaster knows that a Search function has been requested, but we are a small staff with many other things to do to publish all our magazines and maintain all our Web sites. It's unlikely we'll get to a Search engine anytime soon, if ever. I think a few years ago a Chatterboxer figured out how to search via Google with Cricket Chatterbox plus a specific theme in the search field. I don't know if that would still work now because there are many more threads on Chatterbox, and many with similar themes, that there were two years ago. I'm sorry we can't be more encouraging about this.

Admin, what time do you pu the posts on ? I mean, when you put the thread\comment on for others to see, do you change the time to Eastern or something like that ? Or do you keep it as it is?

I hope you can understand these sentences.

 

We don't change any times. But I'm not sure if the times shown are accurate.

Admin, I sent a post on Red's introductory thread, and I can't find it there. I don't think there was anything inappropriate on it. Why wasn't it posted?

Admin: Hello Everinne! I don't know exactly which post you're referring to, but if your post hasn't shown up yet you should resend it. It may have been a glitch.

If I told some of my friends about the chatterbox, and they wanted to join, would they have to read/subscribe to Cricket?

Hi Admin, I posted an intro for myself two days ago and it dissapered. Do you know why this happened?

Admin: So the post was up on the CB and then all of a sudden wasn't? It might've been a glitch, and you should try reposting. As far as I can tell none of us deleted it.

Howdy Admins 1, 2 & 3! A while back we had a "what do you think other CBzers look like thread", I was wondering, what do you think we look like?

 

Oh, there are so many of  you, I really can't take the time to describe you all. However, you I picture as a large daisy with a bent stem/neck, swaying in the breeze and listening to all the sounds of life with all your petals.

Thanks for replying to a talkative daisy.

Why is it when you post a comment only once, it shows-up in two comments?

 

I don't know.

@admin: Just wondering, would it be possible for you to put a number behind your name? For example: Admin1. That way we would know which one of you responded.

Thanks, Violet (wishing myself across the world)

Admin11111111: Probably 95% of Admin posts come from the same person (not me). Is there a reason you want to know who is who?

@Admin11111111: It would just be kind of nice to know who's who, like the chatterboxers know which person is which. But, you Admins all have the same name. That's why.

Also, I had (and still have) a problem. A long time ago, when I went undercover as Mabel E. , I'd posted the begining of a story. It began like this:

"//Amitty Lastion\\

How come ForeCasters alway predict- no, not predict. How come ForeCasters always warn you about Flash Floods, and Tornados, but never warn you that after a Tornado, all your belongings may fall out of the sky."

So what happpened to that post? I don't think it ever got posted. Did it get deleted by the Admins, or was there a glitch, or what?

Thanks, Violet (wishing myself across the world) 

 

You make a valid point, Violet. I'll call myself Admin 1, since I've been around since the beginning of Chatterbox. I'll let the others know, and they can decide if they want to use a different nubmer.

 I don't specifically remember the story you mention. It may be somewhere. But feel free to submit it again. From what you show here, I don't see any reason why we would not have posted it.

How come the Admins aren't using numbers anymore (as far as I've seen lately)?

Rodney says edyt. Edward Dunked You in Toilet?! No, Rodney, Edward did not dunk me in the toilet! I don't know anyone named Edward anyways. Rodney, you must have mistaken me for someone else.

Admin 42: Cool

NaNo is National Novel Writing Month. It happens in November, so that's why everyone has been talking about it. To win you have to write 50,000 words in one month.
