Reading Comprehension -1

Class, what do we have to say to Lockescythe? :)

Question:

Cheap ### Gamer just relaunched with blog functionality. I am going to create a blog there that will be mainly VS and video games, but a little sports, comics, etc. Will this count or does it have to be a 90-100% VS blog?

Preferably 90% Vs....

On that note, the new version of this site, coming soon, will have blog functionality built in as well.

When will we be seeing the poll function?

We say...

Sigh.

It happens quite often with him. I guess enthusiasm will have to be enough.

I'm not sure to what you are referring.

That would be a nice Gateway for VS Blogs. Ah yes, didn't we have one before that also collated the Blogs and Sites a few months back?

Sorry for the limited computer speak (and knowledge), but what's an RSS?

Also, usually posts my blogs in my signature if ever. :)

Thanks

RSS basically scans blogs so you don't have to. It's a system that checks for updates and compiles the information. Simply put, when a blog updates, the RSS feed will pick up on that, and create a post in the blog forum.

And we still do. The VS System Network was set up by Steve 'Hot Pants' Garrett, and allowed readers to vote for their favourite blogs while also maintaining an aggregation of the most recent blog posts and links/banners to every blog registered with it.

Personally, I have most of the RSS feeds in my Outlook to keep me apprised of new posts, but I still check Steve's site every couple of days in case I missed something.

On other realms there is a function to create polls. Threads where you can create topics to vote on.

Take this thread as an example:

It was said a while ago we would see it soon, I have been waiting to see that happen so I can donate again.

Wow, that's a pretty "I'm holding your donation hostage until you give me this one little thing that I want" attitude, but anyway, any functionality on HCRealms will eventually be available here. Not going to make any promised on timeframe though.

It's not that one little thing. Here is the thread where it was first discussed.

There are several other options that would be a nice addition. If we had a photo album here on the realms it would eliminate the whole I can't see this picture on photobucket because I am at work.

I am not trying to hold my donation hostage, I just want to get the most out of my donation once all the functions are activated.

edit: Burt with all the help Typhon has been for the Dark Knight Contest I have gone ahead and donated again. :)

Nevermind :)

I'm caught up on requests now.

Fatal, still not seeing any updates from most of the blogs in The Syndicate - only a specific few. Do we need to be re-added?
