Beginer editor has a question about submissions

Are we done yet?

Oh, I hope so. I'm not the one picking at the scab--and spreading the wound to other threads.

That said, up to a year or so ago, there was a group in here giving all sorts of cockamamy/unsourced/wrong market advice and imperial dictim based on nothing but obsolete and/or untrained personal quirks and superior attitude. It's been better for a while now.

And, for the record, I've always thought Bronze's advice was pretty good. Sorry he can't tolerate any disagreement.

You really are jazzed at the possibility that you could no longer just say any old thing you wanted on the editor's forum and get away with it, aren't you?

Tough. The writers (and editors, as well) deserve seeing more than one view if alternate views exist and deciding for themselves.

Maybe then you'll start researching your own responses better.

No need for that, as long as you are on duty. There is clearly no need for more than one opinion, so long as it is yours.

I must confess, saying any old thing on the editors forum has been one of my true thrills. I surely shall miss it now that I have been exposed as the charlatan I am.

I had a good run as God Emperor of the Editor's forum and now it time to pass the scepter to someone who truly has the time and energy to devote to the duties.

I am still wondering what is wrong with you.

Oh, grow up. You sound like a petulant preteen spread-eagled on the floor and beating the carpet with your fists and toes because you can't have another fistful of gummy bears.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Still wetting your pants about this? I responded fully to that question yesterday. Go look it up.

And give the forum a break and stop pissing on the board.

It's an honest question.

I responded to a request from a poster. You misunderstood my answer and after I tried to clarify, went to personal insults.

You can be the boss of the editor's forum. It's not a problem for me. Please feel free to dictate editing methods to all who visit.

If you find my posts or my presence offensive, report it to a mod and let them deal with me as Lit policy dictates.

You wrote a sweeping generalization statement about editors; I disagreed with you (along with everyone else who posted on the point); you got mealymouthed and went ballistic--and have yet to come off the ceiling.

Tough. I won't be intimidated from posting my views on writing and publishing--including disagreement with you when that's involved.

Grow up and get over it. Or don't. That's your problem.

If you want to continue crapping on this issue, why don't you PM me (which I'll ignore) and stop shitting all over the forum. You're making yourself a sorry sap spectacle here with your over-the-top tantrum, which you've spread beyond the original thread.

Fini.

Obviously you want the last word(s)/rant. So go ahead and have it.

No, not quite yet It was never my intention to cause anyone any distress. I was only hoping to provide a little enliightentment to a budding editor.

Sorry if I have caused you any distrsss, and for any misunderstanding.

Welcome, and thanks!

i really did mean well when I made the comment.

You didn't have anything to do with the thread's last trip off the rails.
