Website FAQ
Q: When is your next update?
A: The brief answer is, "When I get to it." I try to update every week, and
when I can't, it's not due to lack of desire. And yes, I am aware when I
haven't updated in a long time.
Q: When's the next Turnip?
A: I'd like to do Turnips monthly, but they require more effort and creativity
than regular site updates. Send in ideas for articles, if you like. It can't
hurt.
Q: Why are the site colors so annoying?
A: When I made my first website years ago, I modeled it after another I saw
that was based on an old console, green on black. I thought that was neat
but didn't translate it over entirely. Though some have expressed irritation
with the current scheme, it will stay that way until I decide to alter it,
which is a future possibility.
Q: When is Top Ten coming back?
A: If I'm particularly inspired, I'll do a Top Ten here and there, but otherwise
it's on hiatus indefinitely. I wasn't encouraged by the DW/Harith Top Ten
I did on inspiration; after getting so many requests to restart the Top Ten,
I received so few submissions the former requests were hard to fathom. But
whether scheduled or sporadic, there will be future Top Tens, even if I have
to write them myself.
Q: How come <insert here> page isn't loading?
A: Most of the problems with the site have been due to AOL's servers, and
many can be fixed by reloading the page or checking back later. However,
if the problem persists, please write me.
Q: Why is there no statement of the week this week?
A: Sometimes when I update, I can't think of anything to say. Rather than
struggle with the writer's block, I move on to simply updating the rest of
the site and getting it up there.
Q: Did you get the log I sent you?
A: Almost certainly. I don't reply to most submissions due to volume. If
you'd like a response, feel free to ask and I'll try to oblige.
Q: Did you read the log I sent you?
A: Not all logs sent to me get read. Many are quite long or cluttered and
I lack the time to read through and find what -- if anything -- was amusing
about them. To increase the chances of your log being read, edit it beforehand,
and state clearly in your letter what the log is about and why it's funny.
Q: It's my goal to make it on your site in a log or funny quote. Is that
ever going to happen?
A: If it's worth putting on the site, and I see it or have it sent to me,
it gets put on the site. The people with the most appearances on my site
happen to be the people I spend the most time around. It's only a matter
of time.
