Experience update posted


The experience update is in place — thank you as always to the writers and the review team (and I'm sorry I haven't got your new software in place yet; it's next in line after the Encyclopedia)… Since people always like funmails, and I haven't done one in a while, I'll share with you some of the responses I've gotten in the past couple weeks from people who've had their experiences turned down. The first one is from someone who submitted mostly just song lyrics, and then we'll take it from there:

FUCK YOU! I wrote this stupid thing so I could be with your stupid journal thing because my friend asked me to. I didn't know what to write, maybe you people should make a longer list of instructions. I didn't know that this site was full of English teachers, either. PLUS, this is the only experience I had, I saw "Ritual Cutting" and I thought, "Hey, I could write about this." How could I write an 800 word essay about my tongue, clit, nose or ear piercings, I got them done and that was it, they healed and that was it, I put other rings in and that was it. And please don't tell me that I put the lyrics in there just for word count, I didn't even know you had a word count until I tried entering it and I still needed 218 words left to put. You know it's people like you that make people like me do stupid things like what I did in my story. So, go fuck yourselves!

Is your site just like Squarey Squarington or what? Jesus! Excuse my French, but to the main editors of the bmezine experiences, you all are so tight, you could put a lump of coal up your asses and get diamonds in return. Let me know when you have a diamond, I need money to get my next "drunk, irresponsible" tattoo. I apologize for not being a straight edged little pussy like some of ya'll...

From: JsTiNzBaByGuRl
Yes,I did just use another exclamation point so deal with it! I use those when I am typing something exciting and I was excited! I can believe I actually tried to write a story for the website you people belong too! Ya'll wouldn't know a good story if someone slapped it right in front of you on a cpmputer screen,which I did.

Anyway, it's a pretty much endless stream.

Oh — while I remember — I talked to the folks in the art department at the place that does our metal casting for the belt buckles, and doing the 3D work is no problem at all… so do expect some very cool stuff within a month or so.

And now I'm back to work on the encyclopedia.

PS. As a “trivial” side note, in the last five minutes alone I've received almost 4,000 (yes, four thousand) pieces of spam… I get between 250 and 1,000 an hour, but I think 4,000 in five minutes is the largest single burst I've ever received… and that doesn't count Sobig viruses which are coming in at about 1,000 an hour, although they're blocked at a server level so I don't have to download them.


Oh, and if DirecWay can't get their network online soon I'm going to lose it. It's inexcusable how poor the service has been lately. I can't maintain FTP sessions, their routing is getting worse, and I can't find servers at all 10% of the time. The failure rate on their systems at this point is obscene. At this point all my connections have over two seconds of latency in them, and often as much as five to ten seconds…

I really wish I was still on Island Time.

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
