2a. No way to see 'history' of stories submitted by a specific person, etc.
True. No one but you has asked for this, but I do intend on adding something like this. From your profile page, you'll be able to click 'view posting history' or something similar, and get a list of linked titles to threads and news items you've posted.


The main reason I ask for this is so you can judge the reliability of a news item that doesn't feature a link. If the person submitting it has a history of many, many reliable posts, then you know the chances that it isn't made up are much higher. (And there's a lot more behind this comment, but that's another story...)

LoL..please...we all know the main reason you want this added functionality, and that's because you want to be able to see in "writing" that you've submitted "x" amount of news items to P.org, and once again go on your bragging rampage about "Nobody here has submitted as many news items as I have!!"...lol...The reason nobody else has asked for it is because nobody else cares but you...wonder why??...could it be that nobody else puts any importance into the number of submissions to P.org but you??...lol...

For the most part, the community of P.org members can easily spot the bullshit stories submitted...we always have...remember the "Jeff Foxworthy is suing Prince" thread??..lol...It took maybe 2 posts before the onslaught of "This story is bullshit!!" posts came...and I think Ben even deleted it later on....and let's face it, we as members don't have to know everyone's submission history, only Ben and his "staff" need to know that shit...they can use it for deeming a questionable story without a link worthy of adding to the news section...

Sorry, it takes up enough of my life as it is, and I make no money at this (actually, I spend quite a bit on it.) So, it is what it is. I do rely on the community to police itself to some degree... it's a necessity.

This sight is the best there is period.

You are doing a fantasic job, and I commend you for all of your hard work.

You enrich the lives of others beyond any money - keep up the good work and know that you have added a very important "link" between fans...

Sincerely,
LaVisHh

If you don't like the site, go ahead & create something better. Come on, "Lego Boy." Put your money where your mouth is. As critical as you are of Prince, you should be glad that there is an alternative to the official site that is this comprehensive. And why, by the way, is so much of your Prince site about you?
