h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

i checked the conversations for my pokemon emerald walkthroughs, i didn't see anything important, why did you say i should check them?

Someone else said you should check the ones for the pokemon stories, so I thought I'd point out to you that people have been replying there, too.

If you've lost interest in those Entries so completely that you can't be bothered to keep up with the Peer Review conversations, please remove the Entries from Peer Review. Unsubscribing there - where you've submitted your Entry to get feedback - is extremely rude! It just means more threads cluttering up Peer Review, threads that you obviously don't intend to do anything with.

well im sorry! i want to hear what people think of my stories but i can't figure out how to do that (as it happens i thought i wasnt getting any feedback). Right, tell me what i need to do, step by step please.

As far as I can tell, you're not even making an effort. You don't want to hear what people think, you want praise, so you don't respond to anything else.

Figure it out yourself. Actually reading the replies you're getting might be a start.

well i have to say im hurt, of course i want to hear what people think and im perfectly open to constructive critisism, it's just that im not getting any. And i think its just plain rude of you to complain so much about me not answering responses and when i ask you how, tell me to figure it out for myself.

Go to the thread where the responses have been left, hit "reply", and type something. Just like you're doing here.

well yeah, i know that, its just that you implied i was getting feedback that i wasnt responding to but i cant see any.

If someone went and told you you needed to reply to your messages, I will assume there were some. I'm not subscribed to your conversations.

Neither, it appears, are you - you've effectively put everyone in Peer Review on ignore, which is rude and counterproductive.

we're talking about the conversations listed on my home page right? Because i haven't had any responces on there for a while, although i did respond to a previous remark about the entries spelling just now.

No, I was talking about the Entries you have in Peer Review - the walkthroughs - where you have taken all the conversations *off* your homepage by unsubscribing.

oh right, i didnt know people were still responding to those, k thanks

If you don't want to deal with them anymore, take them out of Peer Review. Leaving them there is a request for comments, and requesting comments when you have no intention of reading them isn't very nice

oh right, so how do i do that? (i wont be online again untill wednesday by the way so i'll do it then if i cant figure it out now)

Go back to PeerReview, find your entries, and click the little "x" beside them to remove them from Peer Review. That won't delete them entirely - they'll still be listed at the bottom of your personal space - so you can work on them at your leisure, send the link to other people, and so on. They'll also be findable by anyone who searches for "Pokemon", for example, but leaves the "Edited Entries only" box unchecked.

ok, there we go, thanks for your help. im going to unsubscribe from this conversation now. bye!
