Testing, testing, testing .... (very)

I see your new post in BBB's (Hound) thread. I have my "settings" at "all time" and "sort" as new posts

hello Olga - just testing

I've given myself the thumbs down on a few old topics to get them out of the way but i don't like the idea of marking stuff (unless my own)

Jeez i saw the end of the Olympics (nice cartoon btw)
Why oh why couldn't it have gone to France?
(slaps hand over eyes)

eh
These Reply and Preview buttons are making me feel sick : )
Other than that - looking okay, isn't it?

Hey, really nice to see you here, Endy!

I think one needs quite a bit of time to get to the bottom of problems one encounters in the new A2K - which I don't have, unfortunately. I guess I'm just going to have to remain bewitched, bothered & bewildered in the meantime ....

Right now I would give my kingdom (!) for the "old" thread categories, so's I can find a few threads I'd really like to see.

Another one of those improvements just happened. On the home page, on the left hand side, there they are! Well, they're actually tags, but look just like the old forums. Click one, and see.

Now, you are going to see a few in each "forum" that are mistagged, but what the heck. People were always putting stuff in the wrong forum. Imagine, viagra in Web Design & Developement!

I know what you mean I cant seem to find my Teenagers who'd have em thread. Even with the new tag search it doesnt show up.

(sigh)

Hey - I can understand the misery - personally i can't be bothered with tagging anything for myself - i'm not a librarian type - so...
I'm into just swimming along and seeing what comes up and what interests me - although i think following your friend's posts is a good idea (hoping not to drive either of them mad)
: )

Last night was a riot when the avatars swapped over - i'm glad to see you've lost that scary yellow look, Olga
I laughed so much i thought i might end up in hospital
hysteria seems to come with confusion and frustration if you ask me.
but you know what they say....

Monty Python i mean

Always....

especially when you're being crucified

peace
Endy

Any threads you've started can be found in your 'My Topics' page. I found the thread you were speaking of by browsing through your topics grid, and tagged it 'teenagers'. Now if you search for, and click on, the tag 'teenagers' you will see the thread.

This shows the importance of tagging things, so feel free to also tag it 'teenagers' which will further strengthen its relationship to that tag. Also, tag it anything else that may be relevant. The more people tag things the easier they will be to find. You don't have to be a librarian or know anything about folksonomy. Just fill in the blank: "This thread is about ____" (if you have more then one answer for the blank, tag it more then one thing!

I see your point there Nick but all my threads (well most of them) are creative writing and it kind of feels like self- promotion to tag them - maybe i just lack the confidence to say - this is about 'trauma', 'war', 'child-abuse', 'rage' 'self-abuse' - you know, people always think you're some sort of ego maniac if you put yourself forward and claim to be writing for any other reason than selfishness - and when it's stuff you've created from therapy - well, i dunno - it kind of feels wrong to 'sell' it.

Hey - it just means my work won't get read by so many, doesn't it? I'm not hurting anyone else but myself...

As for the librarian bit - well, i never was one for categorizing

No doubt you think i'm nuts - but don't let it bother you. Some of us are that bent fork - you know

happy to lie in the back of a drawer

I do admire anyone who is ready to put themselves out there, however and has motivation and ambition. I hope one day to feel strong enough for something like that but not yet.
I imagine you live in world of time pressure and all that - but me? I'm alone in a very quiet place.

Also - i've been talking to Olga for some time now and i 'm used to joking around with her so - you shouldn't feel a need to defend the site because of anything i say. If you created all this then you are an artist and i know how personal it might feel.

I really do appreciate what you and Craven are bringing to us here and hope that 'bent fork' or otherwise, i can continue to share my work here with the few who relate to it.

I'll tag other people's threads as a peace offering if you like - but i just don't feel i have the right to tag my own

Put me down as nuts if that helps.
: )

best wishes

Endy

ps - Nick

it has occurred to me that you (or anyone) might think i was referring in some way to a2k when i mentioned crucifixion. I wasn't. I meant life (beyond the forum). I guess for a moment i forgot where I was.

now i really must switch off
knackered beyond belief

I will check this out, Roger! (I hope it's as good as it sounds. )

Thanks.

What was this avatar change-over thing, Endy? (Damn I missed it!)

I (or my avatar?) had a "scary yellow look"?

Goodness me!

I just checked, Roger. That's good!

Time for Felix Msolga!!!!!!

Or Poppy?

Ms Bunny Person, you're talkin about time I aint got right now! (All that trial & error, the failure!!! Eeek! : Usually the case for yours truly. <sob>)
Momma mia! I doan wanna go there!
Later, perhaps?

Like I said, I'll do it if you care to just open a gravatar registration and if you feel comfortable to sens me your username and password.

You can change the password after, if you want, so you KNOW I'll not do devilish things to your avatar.

I did it for Boida, and she can even SEE it now!

Tempts Msolga....









Don't worry...I'll shut up now..I just miss da Pussy.

My, those Felixs (Felixes, Felixi? What is the plural of Felix? ) are certainly extremely attractive, Deb! I am sorely tempted, I must admit. Thank you for a terrific offer!

I got more......Felices.....

yep wanna see a felice or some sort

A felice, margo? I'd love to see one of those, too!
