Some time ago, I submitted something to the Writing page:

wrongplanet (dot) net (slash) asperger.html?name=Writing

(even though I have 5 posts & been here 5 days I still can't post links but I've almost given up with the seemingly non-existent support here).

However I need it to be altered or removed.

I pm'd alex and also used the seemingly defunct Contact Us form, both to no avail. So now I am trying here to see if there is anyone who can help.

There isn't even a link on the site anymore. I had no idea you could reach it from there. I'd also like my stuff removed.

That part of the site hasn't been updated since like, mid last year, and only because I pressed al to. The current works only seem to be there out of respect now...

I won't do that because he is a very busy man. Trust me, I know him in person. I wouldn't do anything foolish that ends up with you in trouble.

Maybe then, he needs to have other people working for him. Because the support on this site is absolute rubbish. That would be ok if this site was relatively small, like in 2004 when I first joined, but for a site this big, there needs to be more damned support!

Well the other guy who help made wp left thus Alex is the sole person who works on the website. Alex is doing a good job on wp and he is busy with schoolwork and other appearances. He'll get to you eventually so just be patient trust me.

???? so asking alex to do something involving his website would get us in trouble? Thats his job!!

I know for a fact that I wasn't able to add anything to the Writing Showcase, and the format of the blog page has changed. Instead of there being a list of people whose blogs you can read, a lot of random blogs are on the main page.

Yeah it's really old, and my crappy poems are really really embarrassing. I want them off.

I think that's something alex might need to realize. WP is getting too big for him to manage as effectively as he would like.

Wait a minute!

I think I'm having trouble figuring out whether you all are talking about the Writing Showcase, or the blog page. I know you can view all different blogs on one page, but I wish you could just click on one person's blog from a list instead of the way it's done now. I don't know why it was changed.

Also, I do agree that Wrongplanet is getting too big for Alex to manage on his own. Another member here agrees with me, and she is very overwhelmed about how much this site has changed. She hasn't been here in a while, and I think we've lost touch with each other unfortunately.

It started off as the first, then the blog bit came in too.

I know about the blog page, but I'm really not sure what else you mean, Tim.

And I agree with you too, Emelia!
