I don't understand it* Updated on Sunday


:Authors Note::::::: I realize that this isn't the original post....however, I decided that the point I was trying to make was taken by everyone loud and clear, and there's no sense in leaving my past rant in place. I'm not sorry that I posted it here, but I don't see the need to keep it up. I made my opinions known, and everyone's had the chance to read what I said and to form their own opinion.

I love this site and I always will. I would never do anything to take away from the purpose of it, and if I ever come to the point where I feel like I don't like it anymore, I'll leave before I do anything to cause it harm. I don't think my rant was harmful at all. I felt like I had a responsibility to speak up not just for myself and others in my position, but for the authors who are coming up behind us. If anything, my rant made people think, and that's always a good thing.

I took a look at the tag. It's colorful, but eye catching. It also says Hosted Author on it.

 

Even though a blog may be considered PUBLIC since members can access it, at least you didn't put it into the forums for everyone to see, including guests. Another alternative you had was to send an email to Myr expressing your concerns about this issue.

Thats the problem...there's so many different people running the place now that we don't know who to go to. I know this....it was a lot better when Myr was the main person in charge. BTW, I did send a pm to one of the admins but no ones answered me

Nick, I 100 percent agree with you. I know it's September already, But your Nickolas James Non Hosted Author of the Month Excellence Award is an awesome choice! Abandoned Boy, My Step Brother Jacob, And a few I'm forgetting. :D

 

That is all.

Officially im not part of the "group" that handles the authors. Changes are being made for the improvement of GA. As for changing tags, I have nothing to do with that. You would have to take that up with the adminstration dealing with that section. I dont know if it has been annouced or not but officially the "GAC" are no longer, it has now been devided into diffrent teams, to help with the many diffrent aspects that our community had here.

 

Thank-You for posting your "rant", I hope that the team that handles shared and hosted authors can help you out more.

Thanks Jules....i think that's part of the problem....there's way too many teams and the team that handled this obviously wasn't being watched...just my opinion, but probably not far from the truth....anyway, you're welcome for the rant and I hope they can do something too, because I'm honestly embarrassed for whoever decided to do this

If anything, some kind of notice should have been sent out to those effected.
