Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue
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

@Admins, how come my last two posts on the BIG Cadet thread in Kyngdom haven't shown up?
Are they up now ? They should be . We've been busy .

this probably gets asked a lot but, I posted a roleplay piece... it didn't show up. And it was a really long piece, and I didn't put it down anywhere else, so I can't just repost it. Is it still being processed, or did the rancor get it? I'm kinda in this limbo of whether to try and repost it or just wait, what should I do?
Thanks for asking, Miriam. There have been some glitches with the CB lately, where we Admins see there is a new post but we can't view or post it. So please go ahead and resubmit. Since this issue has been happening, it might be good practice for everyone that if you're writing something long to keep a copy in case this happens. - Admin

Haha, me again. I was looking around the site and it made me wonder, will you ever do something like Crowd Sorcery again? That would be super cool.
Never say never, but there aren't any plans to something like that in the near future. - Admin

Hello Admins! I saw this today and was wondering if it was a glitch. The thread is on the first page too!
I can't tell what you refer to by "this." We have had some glitches recently. We're hoping to upgrade and get rid of them sometime.

I’ve been seeing that around too. I think it usually goes away if someone makes a new post on the thread

@admins what exactly was crowd sorcery?
Crowd Sorcery was a project in which Chatterboxers submitted characters and fantasy words that author Frederic S. Durbin wrote into a fantasy story, illustrated by Emily Fiegenschuh. The story, "The Girl Who Writes the Future," appeared in Cricket magazine from November/December 2014 through May/June 2015.

@Admin, what was your favourite book to read when you were a kid?
Oh, it's too hard to name just one! My earliest book memories are of my mother reading to my siblings and me before bed. It was always a chapter from an old classic such as The Five Little Peppers, Uncle Wiggly, or Mrs. Piggle Wiggle--books that had been handed down in her family. My mother comes from a whole family of librarians. For independent reading, I think my favorites were mysteries like The Hardy Boys.

How do you send letters to the Letterbox? Do you just send it through any email (like Gmail)?
Email from any email to cricket@cricketmedia.com
It will help us if you put Letterbox in the subject line. We'd love to hear from as many of you as possible!

@admins did you see the eclipse? If so, total or partial?
Partial. What was most notable to me what the drop in temperature. We were in the 90+% shadow area, but I was surprised that it didn't really seem to get any darker here, even though we had a sunny day.

Hey Admins! Are we allowed to post P.O. boxes on here? Also, you go to college?
I know it's not your home address, but we don't allow any specific locations like that. So, please don't post P.O. boxes. Do you mean where did I go to college? I attended Valparaiso University! - Admin

@Admin, could Cricket at some point have one or two pages with more recent quotes from Kyngdom, the way it did in May/June 2016 (https://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/kyngdom/node/218831)? Just wondering :)
I'll pass your request on to the editors. We are pleased with the recent activity in Kyngdom.

All right, thanks :)

@admin I was wondering, is topping automatic? Or do you control it?
Topping is very mysterious, and we do not control it. Once you "top" a post, it should automatically bump it to the top. We just post your topping comments like we would any other comment. - Admin

Admins, what do you think of the former flag of Pocatello, Idaho?
I don't know that I've ever seen it, so I have no opinion. I do like the name Pocatello, though.
