No problem

How are you finding the site?

At first I found it very big and confusing and I actuly considered leaving but now I think I get what to do and stuff. In fact I may be posting my first guide entry at some point today. xP I just hope I did it right . . .

It is quite big and confusing at first, but it is a friendly site and doesn't take all that long to work out how to use it

Oooh, what are you writing on if you don't mind me asking?

I don't mind. Actully maby you could tell me if its the sort of thing that would work as aguide entry . . . I've been kinda confused about that.

I wrote it about how to make a grilled peanut butter sandwich. It seemed a fun enough topic to start with . . .

Whatever it is, there'll be a place in the Guide for it somewhere. It can be a bit confusing as to whether something's best suited for the Edited Guide (factual entries written to the <./>writing-guidelines</.>, Under Guide (mainly for fictional work) or The Post (the site's newspaper).

A grilled peanut sandwich is probably a piece for the edited guide, and so one to be submitted for peer review once you've finished it. I'd get the nice people at A1355195 to have a look at it first though before putting it for formal review .

Thankies again.
You've been very friendly and helpfull.

Any time, that's what us Aces are here for .
