That was when I learned to press Ctrl + A, Ctrl + C every time before posting something. I've continued doing so since then, and now I even do it before pressing the send button when sending an email xD<br /><br />Hope it helps, from now on =3Nesbethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17128590308015084081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688468174751326435.post-57792334167853371162010-11-26T22:21:21.892-05:002010-11-26T22:21:21.892-05:00@ sonsoftaurus - FTW was the first one that I knew...@ sonsoftaurus - FTW was the first one that I knew of but I didn't think I'd qualify because this isn't a strictly 40k blog. I didn't know if Ron allowed for much latitude on that account or not. It certainly wouldn't hurt for me to at least inquire. Thank you!<br /><br />@ Rich - Yeah, it was really frustrating when it happened but I think I've recovered from the shock now. At this point it's at least something I can laugh about and who know, maybe this turned out better anyways.<br /><br />@ The Antipope - I think I'm going to be a bit more cautious in the future and not just trust blogger to keep things sage for me. Oh well, I'm still learning... Thank you for the recommendations, I really appreciate it!<br /><br />@ jabberjabber - Thank you, I appreciate the empathy. I'm considering forming a support group for frustrated blog authors. ; ) It's good to know that the networks really do benefit their associates, I'm excited about becoming more involved with the community at large. Thanks!<br /><br />@ Mihalis - Cool, I'm definitely interested in all for which I would qualify. I think I'm just going to contact all of those and find out what they have to say. Thank you, Mihalis,I hope you're doing very well!<br /><br />@ D6 - That's funny, I would expect those guys to be fairly laid back about things. Thanks for letting me know, I doubt I'll stress over it as much now.<br /><br />@ Matty - Haha, you're lucky then that so much of my original post got lost. There were even more cute, fuzzy creatures! It's good to hear from you, Matty, thanks.<br /><br />@ Josh - That's good to know, I was a little worried about figuring out what to say concerning my blog. You make a great point too about these networks, it's not like I have anything to lose by joining up with them. Thank you for the perspective!<br /><br />@ Dave G - Sorry to hear it though it's kind of comforting to know it's has happened to others better at this than myself. Thank you very much for sharing with me your experiences with the blog networks. I don't think it would be a problem for me keeping things family friendly on my blog so I will check into joining FTW as well. Thanks, Dave!<br /><br />@ Loquacious - Interesting... I still want to write the essay and do as good a job as I can with it, though I feel like I at least won't stress over it as much now. I feel better just knowing it's not a make-or-break type of thing for gaining admission to the network. Thanks, Loq!<br /><br />@ Porky Poster - Thank you very much, I'm really grateful you found your way here and were kind enough to take an interest in my blog. Solidarity on the matter of digital cruelty, it seems like there are more of us who have experienced it than I'd originally suspected. Thanks again, PP!<br /><br />@ Natfka - That does sound like a wise approach, I'll likely start taking such precautions as well. Thanks for letting me know about your experience with the blog networks and for your recommendations as well. Thank you, sir!!<br /><br />@ Ruina - It does sound like people really appreciate FTW and the community Ron has created there. I don't know a whole lot about Librarium Online but I've only started poking around there recently and like what I've seen so far. Thank you very much for your help with this, I'm grateful to have received so much feedback from members of these groups.Papa JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443485240104662387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688468174751326435.post-33004100859926612802010-11-26T14:57:06.718-05:002010-11-26T14:57:06.718-05:00I like FTW the most.

Their articles sometimes can be of not very high quality. I personally follow FTW, but one critique of that is the hobby-related posts are a bit mono-marine.<br /><br />Good Luck!Ruinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08911031363144407363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688468174751326435.post-20684053763218690672010-11-26T11:22:59.910-05:002010-11-26T11:22:59.910-05:00I havent lost a post yet, but I fear it.

Ron's very generous, too. <br /><br />The essay is not entirely a joke- they HOP guys are looking for content and often use that little essay as a way to find good authors.

FTW's only restriction is PG content - no swearing and such, which I like since I myself started gaming at a younger age.<br /><br />I haven't gotten involved yet with the forum-type sites like BOLS, Librarium, Heresy and such...<br /><br />I don't want to appear to be siding with any internet drama and focus on the hobby, but FTW and HOP are a couple solid groups of people.Dave Garbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01557481319925772152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688468174751326435.post-56435853489300527662010-11-26T09:31:23.656-05:002010-11-26T09:31:23.656-05:00The essay is definitely a joke.
