==Maintaining the Shippers' List== | |||
Did you know, before the invention of the multi-quote function, getting all the 'ships were done 'by hand'? Either using the edit or regular quote functions...because she had a thing against font whackiness and automatic formatting issues of just c/ping straight from the post. Something of an OCD complex. | |||
Using a 'Latest Additions' mode didn't come until the middle of August '06. She's pretty sure it's been a big help too, because at times there were missed submissions, and at the List's current size, she can't simply do a sweep to check and relies on others to find what she missed. ...They're pretty good about it too. | |||
Submissions themselves are getting tricky. She relocated the list from its place on the BMGf server to decrease PC crashing it caused by viewing it (for those with slower connections) to an off-site local...that's hardly a picnic to keep going. Updates aren't as frequent, because freewebs, just like any other site server, is cruddy to use. Another reason she relies on the Latest Additions, to at least assure people she has the submissions and isn't just lying down on the job. | |||
....She wants it back on the forums, dammit. TT_TT | |||

She vehemently protected Towershipping when Ash/Anabel fans wanted to call it that (when it had been Rafe/Ash since the Deoyxs movie), until it was finally settled to [[AbilityShipping]]. She fought to save [[LagomorphShipping]] from people who didn't like the word ''lagomorph'', until that calmed down as well. She denied people trying to peg Lucas/Dawn as Shinoushipping when it was already Fortuneshipping, and is ''glad'' Shinoushipping is scarred with both Lucas/Dawn and Ash/Dawn, preventing people from saying that there's a pattern to follow when it comes to region names and the couples they represent. | She vehemently protected Towershipping when Ash/Anabel fans wanted to call it that (when it had been Rafe/Ash since the Deoyxs movie), until it was finally settled to [[AbilityShipping]].

She will fight for that List, until she finally grows tired and retires (and personally, she's hoping she too, soon). | She will fight for that List, until she finally grows tired and retires (and personally, she's hoping she will, too, soon). | ||

...She's a grammar nazi, of sorts. Mainly she just fixes errors when she finds them and punches in a number or two, or throws in a couple lines of extra information, but not much else. Making and designing pages are better left to the people who can do then properly, which isn't her. She's low-grade. | ...She's a grammar nazi, of sorts.
