Blog Q&A

 

 

 

Welcome to the Blog Q&A. This is your chance to speak directly to the Blog Staff (DeeVee, the Blog Leader, and his assistants Nukaya, Shine, Bfahome, Ta-metru_defender, and Takuma Nuva) and ask any questions you may have about the world of blogs.

 

Please check out the Blog FAQ first, as your question may have been already answered.

Am I correct that it is now safe to not have to approve comments again? 'Cause I despised that.

Seconded. I hate it but still have it in my blog.

Another quick question: How do I take a post and send it several pages back, aside from drafting all the ones infront of it?

As far as I'm aware, there's not a way to do that otherwise.

I don't understand why everyone 'despises' that, it's a safety feature that everyone would be wise to use, recent security breaches or not. But no, it is not any safer now than it was a month ago when I posted the Blogalert Alert. If you don't want to have to approve all comments, then don't. It's a recommendation, not a requirement. I think it's ridiculous to complain about it, but that's your prerogative.

The thing is, I either miss half the comments or have a flooded E-mail.

 

But anyways, I just don't like it. I'm really lazy. DX

Again, please note that we are not forcing any members to switch their blogs to "approve comments", but are recommending that you do so as extra security, so complaining that you don't like having it on will do you little productive good.

There is a certain person with a blog name that I think is offensive but could be considered funny by others. (it involves Hitler) Even though it's not against the rules, do you think the blog should be renamed?

If you have something you'd like to report, please PM BlogAlert.

Well, thanks to Premier Perks week, I now have a blog. I am wondering if, after Premier Perks week ends, I will still be able to make entries? Also, when does it end?

I believe that the week has already ended (since you don't have a rank image), and no, you won't be able to make any more entries until the next perk week, or until you get a Premier Membership. =|

No, you are not allowed to make entries, or to bump entries as of today.

what's the rules on editing staff comments?

 

because Shine is being silly

If a staff member has edited your entry for a serious reason, it stays in. If Shine's just being silly and playful, do what you want. If he's doing his job, it stays.

 

However, I'm mostly okay with members removing the 'please edit comment 4 before republishing' kind of edits. But other than those, they should stay.

I know you're not supposed to edit if it's their job but I wasn't sure if you were like, not allowed to edit at all.

 

thanks!

I reported an image-only comment a while ago, and the comment has not been removed or edited. I also got a message from Nukaya from a previous report saying that something was wrong with BlogAlert that day. I was wondering if my message was eaten, or if editing/removing was not very high on the priority list next to other Bloggie projects.

During Brickfair, BlogAlert was inaccessible for reasons unknown. However, that problem has been rectified. This is what Nukaya was referencing.

 

As to your other question, we the blog staff have lives. We don't sit here just waiting for reports, and so just because something takes longer than you feel like it should does not mean we have not gotten to it, or will not get to it. Please be patient. Image-only comments are a low priority for me when it comes to drafting and editing blogs. We appreciate the reports, and are glad to receive them. But please don't be so panicky when we're trying to also live real lives outside of BZP.

D --> Is there a way I can delete all of my blog entries so I can start anew?

Well, there is a delete button at the bottom of each entry. Just delete all of them using that.

D --> I kind of meant instantly, because there are a lot of pages

There's not even an option to mass delete comments, let alone entries. That would make it too easy for the blog staff (read: it would make it easy).
