Admins Question Thread

Admins Question Thread

Pretty self-explanatory, for when you have a question for the Admins.

I was looking through the Ultimate Guide to the CB, and it says people ask the admins questions "frequently related to blue moon ice cream."

What does that mean? 

One of the older admins told a story about Blue Moon ice cream a while back and it became something of a meme: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/downtoearth/node/441247. --admin

Cool! I have a question for Admins, if you don't mind me asking: How many Admins are there? Thanks! 

Three.

How do you sign up to become an Admin? Is there a process?

And what does the Chatterbox look like to you guys? 

Being an Admin is just part of our responsibilities as employees of Cricket Media. We all applied for positions in the editorial department when they were open. We see submitted comments one at a time to review and post them. We are able to view all of Chatterbox posted threads as you do, too.

Do all of the admins have a different way of talking in comments? Also, what is the most fun thread to get comments from?

 

All of the admin's replies will look like this, but we sometimes have different ways of signing off. My favorite comments to read are when you all share your writing! - Admin

What was the funniest comment you ever read?

Oh, I can't remember any specific comment right now, but I do sometimes laugh out loud to myself when I read a comment.

If you don't mind my asking, why don't you go by Admin 1, 2, 3 or things like that?

We're interchangeable, each of us just Admin.

That's actually a kinda cool idea (in reference to the "We're interchangeable, each of us just Admin" comment).

Like, imagine a story about super-intelligent bees or something; they have a Hivemind which allows them to optimise decisions for the survival of the hive due to the input of each individual, and each has their own thoughts and all that, but ultimately serve the hive and thus don't place the same importance on individuality, including the concept of names as humans do. Have a more humanesque character ask why they never differentiate themselves/have names, and you could drop that as a cool, pretty epic response.

Lol I overthink everything way too hard. :p

Do you get annoyed when I ask a bunch of stuff? Like when I keep asking you to change stuff?

No, I don't get annoyed. I like to answer questions within CB guidelines and be helpful. Plus there are three of us, so the requested changes get spread out, don't all come to the same Admin.

Good. I feel like I have been asking a lot of stuff from you. I was worrying that I was annoying you.

Admins, do you watch anime or read any manga?

No, I don't. I don't watch a lot of TV or movies, but I do read a lot.

Admin

I read a lot of comics, and some manga gets in there too. Some of my favorite comics are the Bone series, Space Dumplins, Princess Jellyfish, and Yotsuba&! --admin
