New Blog

[AB Editor]

New Blog is up!

[redcrx]

Ed, while youre about can you answer a quick question? (no not ^^^^ that one)

a friend emailed in an article a while back (before your time as ED) and she and I were under impression that something was going in the newsletter about it and fundraising for a charity. Since then the newsletters have been about saving money etc.

Do you know if there are any plans to include her article?

[AB Editor]

Blimey.

I really have no idea to be honest. It wasn't something I was informed of upon starting here.

You could send it to me again if you still have it?

Ed.

[redcrx]

thanks Ed. I dont have it, but will drop you a line with the lady's details and ask her to send it again.

After reading your blog I've unpacked the selection of assorted toys that i attempted to bribe you with in return for an answerbank " get out of jail free " card.I will put them back on the shelf.And they were batteries included too!


DID THAT HELP ?�

Morning ED , hope you're well today . So next time the submit button faults and , yet again , I get zapped for accidently overposting , you're saying I shouldn't email you asking to be reinstated , I should wait ? Couldn't that take a long time before it was noticed by your team though ?

ah, a plea for more user-generated copy! No mention of your payment rates, though, not even a free ticket to the AB New Year's Ball.

[AB Editor]

Toys?! With batteries!!! Curse my vigilant and incorruptible soul!

[AB Editor]

Not really.

The only flaw is that I work normal hours, meaning nothing gets moderated / unflagged between 5pm and 8:30am. I believe that an external mod function is on the cards, but it could be a bit of a wait.

I check suspensions constantly, so while I'm in the office you won't have to worry!

I could write something on how a dolls heart breaks when she doesn't get emailed back by the Ed. Might need more than 350 words though.

Ah he is but a lamb to the slaughter.
He doesnt know what sort of toys i sell.
There could be much fun sending samples to ab towers.The female ed never complained about anything i sent her though : 0)

From the ed's blog:

".....Most bans are down to abusive language, but my stance on the matter is that people who incite, provoke or engage in arguments are culprits too. There is a fine line between banter and trying to get a reaction out of someone, if you cross it, you will be removed......"

Fine lines, and reactions. Does this explain why virtually every incarnation of legend gets banned? For no discernible reason. What it says to me is that mere existence in AB is now a matter of chance for everybody, and in particular anybody who posts in CB.

Such a shame.

[redcrx]

maybe the ED could write articles on such items and boost your sales figures leg!

[AB Editor]

The last ed brought me up to speed with your 'toys' legend.... not in that sense though!

[China Doll]

Intrigueing!

[legend.isgod]

Would the ed be interested in a 350 word article on such toys?
i may just compose one.Afterall they are very relevant today and are a major part of society , though still a tabboo subject for some.

Wifey dont be sad , with harmony comes happiness.Its got to be better than all the recent crap .Hasnt it ?

[wiffey]

No

[legend.isgod]

Didnt someone say you cant please all of the people all of the time ?


So where did the last ab editor go ?

[wiffey]

A site that bans its users without VERY good reason is on a downward slope. Some of us know just such a site, begins with C and now gets about one thread per week.

[legend.isgod]

OK wiffy , an old if not dead argument about a dead site.This is entirely different , and if there's a bit of parity for once then it will do everyone some good .It cant make things any worse than they have been of late.So why not see what happens , hey if its crap then after a while say so.But at least give it a chance .
