Alter Ego Thread, v. 2009.2

These silly threads fill up almost faster than we can create them. You know the drill: pick a pseudonym; guess and be guessed.

Continued from version 2009.1.

NOTE: Check your posts before sending them. The Administrators will not rescue you if you accidentally submit one under your “real” blogname. Many an alter ego has fallen victim to a careless “submit” click.

International Month of Anachronism Detection and Scrupulous Attention to Detail

The March Random Thread is dedicated (though not necessarily devoted) to those who squirm with annoyance when writers and moviemakers get things wrong, wrong, wrong. (Think any MBers fall into that category?) Welcome to IMADSAD!

Welcome, Neophytes! (March 2009 edition)

Howdy, stranger! You new around here? Come right in! We’ve got some pie waiting for you, and friendly locals ready to answer your questions and help you feel at home.

For starters, we recommend that newcomers (that’s what “neophytes” means) look over The Rules and The HG2MB (Hitchhiker’s Guide to MuseBlog), which contains more helpful information than you can shake a stick at. We don’t know why you’d want to shake a stick at it, but now you know you don’t have to bother.

MuseBlog Veterans: Please use this thread only to welcome newcomers as they arrive and answer questions that they ask.

Sidebar Advertisements?

Yesterday Kittymine reported:
((GAPA’s: URGENT MESSAGE- SOMEONE HAS POSTED A WHOLE BUNCH OF STUFF ABOVE THE USUAL SIDEBAR.))

And Groundhog amplified:
…it’s on the sidebar, above the calendar. It looks a lot like the “Most Recent Posts” list, except that it doesn’t have a header. It’s a list of “buy this, buy that” sort of stuff. I’m not going to mention what they wanted you to buy, it’s kind of inappropriate. It’s not showing up on my laptop either, but I can confirm that it was showing up on our family’s computer.

Does anybody else see what they’re seeing? The GAPAs don’t, and our Web host says our site’s code seems to be in order. If it’s just Groundhog and Kittymine, then it seems likely that their computer has been infected and they need to run some anti-virus software.

If you ever see advertising of any kind on the blog, please let us know, because we certainly won’t have put it there.
