Comment Section Changes

Hello!!!

 

We have heard your cries of anguish!

 

We have felt your pain as you hit the table in annoyance!

 

Why, oh why, doesn’t Subscriptionista.com get their crap together with the comments?!?

 

I think we finally have. Although the whole thing is my fault. I had the comments set to moderation because honestly the blog wasn’t as busy as it is now, we get a ton of spam, and I like to reply to everyone that wants a reply. Yes, we enjoy chatting with everyone!

 

So here is the deal. Now we have the magical Jetpack installed on the site!

-You can sign in to make a comment

-If you are new to the site then your comment will await moderation

-If you have posted before your post will post right away

 

Magic right?

 

I hope this will stop spam and deter human spam.

 

IF YOU ARE BOX COMPANY THAT WANTS TO GET THEIR NAME OUT THEN EMAIL ME

Subscriptionista@gmail.com

Because I swear upon all that is holy and/or in a box that I will reign down a storm on your house if you decide that it might be a good idea to spam here. I will not have our hard work and efforts to provide a different sort of hangout be sullied by cheap attempts to “get some advertising.”

Comment Policy: Right now let’s keep it loose and fun, like my best friend in college! I have the filter set to PG13. (Don’t tell my parents!)

Yeah... this is getting good!
Yeah… this is getting good!

Note: I had a contact form here that looks like it was for comments. They looked the same so now if you use the comment section below it should all work out!

        Shazam!!!

        It feels good to finally get some of this stuff done. Now I need to add static pages with this info on it rather then a blog post. But that is going on the back burner for now…

        I will set up social media and such this weekend (I swear I will try!) lol

    I think I MIGHT have fixed the time zone stuff (should be West Coast LA time sorry East Coast)

    I fixed the “Recent Comments” section on the side to include 10 recent posts rather then 5 (Shana wants? Shana gets!)

    We are open to any ideas you have. I can’t promise it will be done or even done quickly. We will try are hardest!

    All I wanna say is when I mention the BV thing on the Decoterie post, I got 30 different searches for “Blue Velveteen Beeju.” Peeps like drama lol. You guys get a ton of comments, I’m a wee bit envious 😉

      Omg I didn’t even search that yet!!!

      I think we get comments because everyone can see how needy I am lol I love chit chatting! I’m gonna try to comment more on your blog. It took FOREVER for me to do it because I was afraid you wouldn’t reply or worse not ok it.

      Some bloggers have lost me as fans because they don’t ever reply. I wonder why they even have a blog! You on the other hand are awesome!

        It’s a dark, sad tragic story. It’s stranger than fan fiction. It would make a good Lifetime story.

        • August 1, 2015 at 7:04 pm

          Absolutely, cept it would have a bad ending unlike most Lifetime movies. 🙁

        Oh I always reply to comments, though it may take me a day or two cause some posts are queued (it looks like I’m posting and ignoring but I promise I’m not lol). I also generally enjoy chatting. 😀 I’d say my comment section is a bit more formal than yours, not necessarily by choice 😛 We try to be aloof but people just don’t buy it.

          You have more comments than most to be honest. I see other bloggers with super high ranking who I enjoy who get very little comments. That would drive me INSANE. I just can’t seem to stay motivated without these ladies.

          LOL Your writing style and word choices (we both use “dig”) made me read you. I forget exactly how I came across your blog. Once I found it I made sure to bookmark it and lurk around. Then a comment here and there…

          I would have been SO sad if you didn’t reply back when I first commented! There is one blogger (swear I won’t say who) who is almost as popular as you (almost like she would need to step up her game a few paces to try) and I commented on her site a few times and she never said anything. AND I was the ONLY one who made comments!!! I deleted her and refuse to read her page because it’s telling when you can take the time to shill your “styled items” but not reply back to an actual reader. Objectively I understand that not everyone is into the comment part of blogging. As a reader, I expect some interaction to stay engaged and be loyal.

          PS you don’t have to reply to all my comments. I know you are cool!

    I think it will let me comment this time. Thank you, Brandy, for the commenting suggestions! Thank you, Subscriptionista, for implementing them! I love the kitty picture!
