kudos part ii

Rating: 2 votes, 1.00 average.

I had posted a kudos blog entry earlier this year
, and thought I would post another 'kudos' entry regarding the comments, queries, and feedback I get about the site. As usual they are posted anonymously so as to not reveal the identity of the sender.

Disclaimer: If any of you recognise one as your own, please view it in the spirit that this is intended, as a fun way to get a glimpse into how other people see and use the site.

Some of the messages I get are annoying--as you will see below, like repeated homework queries --some of them are silly, some of them are downright strange, and some truly touching. Again I will spare you the spam messages

Ok, here we go: (my comments are in brackets)

I was wondering if you could do me a huge, gigantic, enormous, monumental favour??????????? Would you please, please, please ban me? I love LitNet, honestly, I can't tell you how much I love LitNet . Which is, indirectly, why I need you to ban me. I will say that I don't want to be able to post any more. I just want to be able to read the threads and whatnot and I can do that even banned but . . . I NEED to NOT be able to post anything anymore. PLEASE . . .Thank-you sooo much!!! (Even if you can't or won't, thank you.)

Dostoievski was a deeply illiterate aristocrat who\'s litterarture is drivel and a defunct money making scheme.

DO NO BE MISLED ABOUT HIS OPINION ABOUT WICKEDNESS (HE MEANT PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHEN HE CRITICISED IT) AND HIS USE OF THE WORD, WE. BECAUSE YOU CERTAINLY DON\'T BELONG IN HIS CLASS. LIKE THE POOR 12 YEAR OLD READER WHO SENT HIS COMMENT.

Dostoievski\'s class was wiped out ultimately by the revolution.

Comments...I do not have a e-mail adress or pass word and to take my quiz

currently working on involves each student to portray a historical figure of their choice. I have chosen Louisa May Alcott as the historical figure I will present, and educate the class about. I was wondering if you could give me some anecdotes about Louisa May Alcott such as how she was like when she was a teenager and a child, how her family life was, and how she really felt about her accomplishments to further help me get a clear understanding of her and help me be able to create a better
presentation. Thank you for your time.

Wow! A prompt reply and something done. I am totally impressed. You guys rock! Thank you so much.

Egads, I went to your web page following a link for Orwells\' 1984. There was a quize, I tried to take it and told I\'ve already done so. I solute you for knowing something I didn\'t know myself. Possibly a past life and you delved into that. Very good. Didn\'t know the web existed before this lifetime. Maybe some story teller wondered through the village...

Please go to this page on your site: http://www.online-literature.com/elbert-hubbard/journeys-vol-five/4/ The author of this article is not only ignorant about the life of Robert Burns but also a religious bigot! Burns was not a failure in life. At 37 years of age, as he lay dying the one thought was of his wife and children?s welfare!

Robert Burns had Rheumatic Fever, which in the end cost him his life. It had nothing to do with making love or drinking! Most of his beloved children died of it. If this author wants to read an encyclopedia then per chance you might send him to Britannica for the correct information. Yes, in the beginning, Burns did disdain the military but before his death; he organized the homeland militia during the French Revolution in case of invasion. This is a statement of great bravery regardless of one?s earlier thoughts. He deserved the magnanimous funeral in which he was honored by the Scots Guards!

This is entire article should not be published in ONLINE LITERATURE. Freedom of the press is one thing but malicious hypocrisy is another! Please give the author a message from me. (ok..... but Elbert Hubbard died in 1919) Before you write about anything, research it first! In the future, my prayer is that you read what you print BEFORE it goes online!

Why did I banned?

I have made a good face, for free, that is pretty good. I could\'ve used it in a post but I couldn\'t paste it in. It looks like 2 types of faces. One that you are not sure of yourself and that you are seeing what other people are saying back like whether they are agreeing with you or just not even accepting your opinion. The other type of face is that you are listening to someone but they are not making sense. If you are interested, just e-mail me

Comments...I do not appreciate being treated like i am going to steal. My 11 year old daughter was wanting this book. I have the block on my computer because I do not want the vulgure things in this world to be seen by my family. I wont bother looking at your site again.

school. I googled thomas hardy and came across your website as a sourse for his bio. At the end it said to ask for permission to use it. PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT copying and pasting, I am simply taking notes and rephrazing what i think is important for my bio on Hardy. I know NOT to plagiarize and there\'s zero tolerance for it at my school. if there\'s any problems, please let me know ASAP! thanks for your time!

The ads on your site are intrusive and annoying. I am unable to read teh content of the page because I am being encouraged to \"Calculate the exact name of [my] perfect lover.\" Please, reformat the things, find the hacker who has placed them on your page and torture them, or get rid of them altogether.

(And, the best message I've gotten this year so far I've saved for last)






I have no problem with this site,
neither technical nor in any way.
How could I?

If my eyes tell me correctly --
if there really are 2000 books
and 3000 short stories,
and essays to boot,
on this site --

Then it proves there\'s possibility
of falling in love with a website.

Thank you, and keep this place open
for a while, will you?

Sincerely,
B.

    If I could only change ONE thing about the site it would be to add a "Next Chapter" command when finishing a chapter in a novel. Sometimes when there isn't a chapter title I'll get out of the chapter and forget the number I just read. On the other hand with my usual blind eye and computer ignorance the command is probably in place and I just don't see it.

    Some of those are hilarious. You must get a lot of dumb questions. Oh by the way, if anyone gets to ban you, can it be me? I live in fear of you banning me. So it would only be right I do it. Evereytime I lose my temper in an outburst on a post somewhere I wonder if Logos is ready to push that button and zap. Well thanks for tolerating me.

    Holy Cow! Mark your calendars folks, cause Logos has posted again, finally, and what a post it is...no points for brevity there Logos, but its great to see an entry from you. Wow, looks like you have lots of admirers.

    Sincerely,
    B.

    Absolutely hilarious! Thanks for posting these, Logos, because they were highly entertaining! Glad someone told me to read your blog. I think some of these people view you as a kind of god or royalty. Is there anything you can't do for them? Amazing and I love how some demand you do what they request. Too, too funny!

    Hey, I know this is not the place where I should say this, but can you please post more picture of you, cause I think you're beautiful. really..

    i didn't send you a private message cause i thought it would just annoy you. so i have decided to put this on this little humble area hehehe.

    by the way, i have read aldous huxley's brave new world when i was 12, my teacher told me to make a book report about since he thought i was genius enough to understand it haha! so, what particular of huxley do you like most?..

    i'm so annoying haha, anyway, you can just ignore me then hehe..
  7. 's Avatar
    No Janine definitely not royalty here and I wouldn't want to be a god

    Yes I know B I'm rather negligent in the blog dept. myself and here I am replying weeks later!

    Virgil, chill out! You're not getting banned, I think you know by now how tolerant I am ... and.... there is only ONE person here would could ban me; you're not even on the list

    mtpspur my friend, I swear! that IS on Admin's unending list of fixes to the site, it will happen, though I probably would get banned if I said when


    Glad you guys enjoyed
