Admin: First Of The Month
Ok, well here it is. Part 1 of the first of the month post.
First off, I'm a bit bummed that there were no volunteers for this...
Holiday Fic Recs You can still sign up!!!
But then again, it may have been lost in the second thing I want to say.
Feb 3-9 16 Recs
Feb 10-16 20 Recs
Feb 17-23 16 Recs
Feb 24-29 45 Recs
Now, upon closer look there were 18 recs on February 29th! I'm just... that's a lot of people doing very last minute recs. This floods people's flists with entries. It puts a lot of pressure on the volunteers who put recs into memories because those have to be done before the first of the month (because new rec'cers need the memories up-to-date to avoid duplicate recs). I've asked many times, and I really don't want to cap the number of recs done by a rec'cer in one day, but this cannot be a recurring event. Edit: Duplicate recs within the rec category. I have always said that I don't mind duplicate recs, but not within the same Rec Category. That's in the FAQ as well.
PLEASE plan your rec's in advance. DO NOT wait until the last day of the month to do all your recs. There are a lot of days in a month. A lot of them. So please, please spread them out!!!!!!!
Next, I am going to be incommunicado from Wednesday to Sunday. I'll be completely net-less. Therefore, daily running of the comm is going to be done by [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. You can email her if it is an emergency, but I'm sure everyone will play nice while I'm gone.
Part 2 will be coming when I get back. :) So, happy rec'cing!
