So, depending on popularity and feedback from our visitors, the PsyBlog will either continue to grow or be deleted. That being said, what are your thoughts?

That was fun for ten seconds...I learned that Krisp likes pizza...

...

...

Is this just going to be for staff?

What do you mean by grow?

How does this benefit the Psypoke community?

I think it's pretty damn cool, really. Although it IS kind of simple. If you ever get around to it/learn how, you could add something on there to make it look better.

I bet the other members feel left out. :P Well, this is for you guys to get to know the <s>evil staff members</s> staff, not for us to get to know you. :x

I like the idea.

We should have some more things like...I dunno.
It certainly should have more than 1 fact per day.

Please expand it to members? Like, important members who rate teams, and contribute guides

Like not you?

Anyway, this is your big project

It's nice. Though, will we, as users, be able to post comments eventually?

Well, there isn't a lot of entrees as of now, but I expect more as soon as the other staff get the time to do it.

Also, maybe the staff could write a paragraph or two about themselves, instead of just answering questions? Just question blogs is a little limited.

I aggree with ET. There should be not just questions, but paragraphs.

The PsyBlog is already formatted to allow that; it's entirely up to the writer if they want to pose a simple question and a two word answer, or simply say "About Me:" and write you an essay; the Profile section of the blog is completely dynamic like that.

Also, the blogs are authenticated through the forums, so if you're not on the Psypoke Staff, it won't let you even try to have a blog. Using the existing login protocols from the forums is the easiest way to keep things secure.

As for comments, I'll look into that. It should be RELATIVELY easy to add that kind of functionality.

Finally, expect a reformatting of how the information is all displayed if these catch on.

I HAD a nice little post about what I liked and disliked about this, but my internet went kablooey, so I'll cut to the chase: I like it, but it needs a bit more to it. Maybe a "Submit A Question" box, or a Weekly Poll?
So far, 8.5/10

and lawl p-l

Whatever you say Jiggz, but Illiterates should have one to .... And could you give a link to a stickey that can explain what the heck is Illiterrate!

The Illiterrate rank tells everyone looking at your post that you're a moron. (Lintaro thread)

Anyways, I like the blog idea, but it would be nicer if the link was above the "About Us" link, that would make more sense, no?

I accidentally clicked on it while trying to click on the 'Forums'. Anyways, it's a good idea. It gives people more room than in their Profile section.

Its an ok idea I suppose. I read all of the entries, it just seems kind of sumple in a way. Most of the staff hasnt really poested anythign spectacular other than Jiggz and Krisp and it has nothing on most other mods. Idk, it would be nice to see some changes, but atm I am completely blank on any constructive ideas to contribute to it.

I personally like the idea, but it's to, simple now. You should give it more, dare I say this, "Flare".

And yes, commenting would be excellent. That way it would actually be like the more common blogs.

I say keep, it, just add to it.

I liked it, I really did. I had fun reading up on the interests of the staff, and I had extra fun hearing about Krisp's job search. (and Zoids!!!)

Also... I learned Sneaky Sneasel lurvs my most hated team: the Packers. =/ Whhhhhhhyyyyyy...

Heheehehe. Bears ftw. Anyway......Can I suggest Inta_Xenom's idea here. For like 10,000 psybucks, you can buy a blog? Just a suggestion. Anyway....

Nice idea, should be staff only tho, it would be very much if you add aalll the members xD

But it's cool to get to know the mods ^.^

For as far as I know, it's pretty original too.


I vote for grow =)

Idea thief >:O!

Andandand you spelt my name wrong.

My suggestion was going to be, that you had Staff, then the staff in the way you've already got, then a seperate table for 'Long-Term psypokians', and if it cost an amount around 2,000 Psybucks, only the richer members of psypoke, the ones who behave more maturely and have been here for a long time, could afford it. The only people you'd find would be people such as Draggy ect., if that's what they wished to spend their psybucks on.

Or, it could be a reward for certain members, eg. winning the trivia/jeopardy things.

I'm sorry if I sound stupid. But what does literate mean?

http://dictionary.reference.com/

Use it.

............Yeah :roll:

I like the blogs. But how come the admins (besides Krisp) aren't posting?

The blog's awsome. Great fun to read. It's nice to know a little more about our staff. This is just a suggestion, but if it can be added to the blog, maybe a little star or icon to appear beside the blogs that have been updated. It's getting tiring cycling through them all.

Great idea though.

Yes, use the site in the link to find out what literate means, so you don't have to post on a message board about something that you can find out in 10 seconds.

I think the blog idea is cooool...

DON'T AGREE IT'S A TRA- *shot*

Nah, I reckon and agree it should have a comment-box-thing, I guess. And that thing how the name could light up if it's been recently posted in.

I like it.

IT'S A TRAAAAAAAAAAAP
