Maryn, who also loved Popwell and is delighted you know him by name
Is there any way to see what reputation someone said to you? Earlier I had a notification, of a comment from someone. It was very nice and I wanted to say a quick reply -- is that possible? I can't find the reputation page now.
Where can I go for help if I've forgotten my password/login deets?
I'm still logged in, but I want to log in on my other laptop browser, and I can't remember my password at the moment... >.>
Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Avatars and User TitlesWhat dimensions do you use to make your avatar pics big and clear? I used a photo, but had to shrink it down on photoshop since it was too big to upload. So now it looks really small compared to other avatars. . .
Why continue a conversation when everyone else has left the room?
The question to ask yourself is:
• Will it add to the value of the conversation?
• Does it serve the greater community?
• Might I be better off, as a member of the community, in dealing here and now?
That said, it's not a bad idea to delve into the past before asking about passive voice, or toward/towards, or the number of spaces after a comma, or why anyone with any wits at all thinks Greedo shot first.
And if you're posting in the Bewares, Recommendations, and Background Check area, it doesn't really matter HOW old a thread is, if there's an existing thread on the agency, agent, publisher, or whatever you want to discuss, you do it on the old thread. Search first! Otherwise, some poor mod is going to have to personally merge your shiny new thread with the older one.
Best avoid doing this in Share Your Work and other critique forums. Check the date at the top of the thread. Check the author's profile to see when they last signed in. Are they still interested in receiving feedback? Have they already rewritten the query letter/writing sample you want to comment on? If in doubt, ask the author! If they don't reply, this should be taken as a "no thanks."
As Newbie Mod, I frown on reviving old Intro threads just to run up the post to reach the required 50 for Share Your Work. I delete those posts.
