NEW Ask Adimin'

Here is where you ask admins questions!

@ adimins: do you know where my " Riders of Chalice RP" went? 

 

No. Look on a back page or do a Google search. In the search box type

 

site:cricketmagkids.com Riders of Chalice

 

Good luck.

When did Cricket first start?

 

Cricket started in September 1973. There was a pilot issue dated January 1973.

Admin, could you add a search in the CB? It would make it easier to find stuff.

 

We know it would be great to have a search function. It's been suggested before. But it's not possible, at least not right now. You can do a google search. In the google search box, type:

 

site:cricketmagkids.com word you want to find

 

After the com insert a space then the exact words you want to find. Good luck.

Have the same admins run the Chatterbox since it first began?

 

Some of us are old and some of us are new, but yes! Some of the admins have been around since the CB first began. - Admins

1. Do you guys have any kids?

2. Have all of you seen each other at least once in real life?

3. Are you depressed because Blue bell ice cream stopped selling for.... uh.... a really long time? (Too long, for my taste.) 

 

Yes, at least some of us have kids.

No, we haven't each seen both of the others. One of us has seen both, and two of us have seen one.

I've never had Blue Bell ice cream that I know of, so I don't miss it. I DO, however, miss Starbucks Mocha Chip. As far as I've been able to learn, Starbucks  does not make any ice cream now.

I always pictured you guys sitting in an office together typing away on computers, talking to each other, and showing each other people's posts when you liked them. It seems weird that some of you haven't met each other.

 

Two work in the same office. One works from home about 100 miles away. We do communicate frequently by email.

Admins,

It's not that we don't want to ask you questions. It's just that we can think of none to ask? 

 

That's OK. Chatterbox is supposed to focus on all of you and your writing, not us!

As a matter of fact, I have a question.

I posted a new RP on the Inkwell. It was the first RP I have ever created. It was called Huckleberry Road, I believe, and you guys didn't post it. I tried the Google search method, and I still could not find it. Why? Sorry if this sounds whiny or rude. 

 

I don't remember it at all. Please submit it again.

Admins,

When is the Chatterbox's anniversary. Could we maybe plan something? Like an...insta-chat or whatnot around noon? (Your time) I think that would be really cool!! 

 

I think Chatterbox went live in August 2008, but I'm not sure about planning an instant chat. It's hard for us to specify in advance exactly what time on any given day we'll be able to post comments.

Um, so, I think it was Indigo who brought up the idea of a Chatterbox Summer Camp. Admins, in all honesty, do you think it really could happen someday?

 

In all honesty . . . no. I'm sorry. It sounds like fun. But our business is publishing magazines. Camping is a whole different "animule," as my dear old Latin teacher used to say.

A lot of CBers have blogs. Do you think it's okay as far as spreading the CB community off of CB?

 

We love that CBers are so creative! But we can't post usernames and links from other sites here. -Admins

Hey Admins, I have been having this idea where we could have a kind of Cricket convention. But then I realized that we all live in different states, and even other countries. Though I would love to meet other CBers. Any suggestions on how to do that?

 

I'm sorry! We can't do that. -Admins
