Hi Joseph! Planted my tree! Yay! Pleas read and comment when you have the time. See you soon! :-)

Joseph! Long time, no talk, huh? I've got two trees up now, and I'd like it if you looked at and added to either one of them! Take it easy. ~Ryan

Hey Joseph! Long time no see! How are you? I was quite busy some time ago, but i hope you are doing good. See ya!




6:40AM EST   Mar 25th, 2008 — by Mariama Abdulai
Wow! Thank's Joseph! I really appreciate your comments! And i will keep writing, it's fun!:-)

Thanks so much for your comment on my snippet! Totally made my day. :)

Hello Joseph, I just wrote some monkey mail on Mariama's page that addresses her concern below, and perhaps a bit of your own. Please keep in contact about your experience on this site. We aim to please everyone (or at least as many folks as possible). Be well, Nina

Joseph,someone has been messing around with my snippet rankings!Sob!

Hello. I am relatively new to this fine site, and I would like to share my concern with trolls to you. Recently in the live chat, I and one other writer had a worrisome conversation with a guest about trolls. He believes that trolls with eventually overrun this site, writing poor snippets, and giving low ratings just because. I feel concerned and would like to know what could be done to prevent trolls from ruining this wonderful site. I ask only because he seemed to be testing the waters, and he said he though about signing up. His behavior was suspect to me. Thank you for listening to my concerns. -Joseph. Stop trying to get people in trouble. -NataS

Joseph, We hadn't taken trolls into account when we designed the functionality of the website. However, if the problem arises, we will address by either having mods checking posts, or some other solution. We will also look into putting something in place into Live Chat to reduce this as well.

Dear Joseph, as I am not a 'Chatter,' I am ignorant of chat protocol. I would direct any questions to Ilya or Nina.




8:16AM EST   Feb 19th, 2008 — by Mariama Abdulai
You are welcome! Enjoy the site!




7:29AM EST   Feb 18th, 2008 — by Chris Sadler
My advice is simple: keep writing! I like your willingness to explore different genres and to try different things. I believe this is a good way to keep your writing from getting stale.

Hi! Just an eighteen year old welcoming another eighteen year old to the site.Welcome.

I meant to say, 'get YOU in trouble.'




3:18PM EST   Feb 17th, 2008 — by Chris Sadler
Take it from me, Joseph: feces flinging (yours or others') will generally just get in trouble.
