Kudos? What Kudos?

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

I'm probably well behind here and have missed something important, like the announcement that Kudos being interrupted for a while, which would explain where mine's gone. I've checked all the blogs back to before the New Year and haven't found anything. Have I not gone back far enough?

I just looked one day and there it wasn't.

Now compared to someone like Ang, whose Kudos looked like a phone number, mine just looked like loose change, but now I don't even have a zero.

Is it trying to tell me that I need to write something new?

I said I lost my muse and I'm still looking for it, but now I appear to have lost my muse and my Kudos.

Is my world really disappearing down the pan, losing it bit by bit?

Yours hopefully,

NB

A change, but not for the better I fear

I too have the 'Good Story' button on my stories, greyed-out because I'm the author and can't give myself pats on the back, but I don't have a single entry with any Kudos points on.

Still, I guess writing something else might quell the lust for ego rubs...

Yeah, like that's ever going to happen :)

I don't just look it, I'm totally in need of ego rubs

Here's a...

Here's a pat that you can consider an ego rub... :-) Someone read your comment - on your blog, and replied! :-)

BTW - not that i expected to find any, it's been soooo long since I posted everyone's forgotten what I wrote, but I wasn't surprised to find my kudos section blank as well. :-)

Have a quick rub from me then

I haven't left posting something for that long - not far short, so have a bit of an ego rub from me too.

I don't just look it, I'm totally rubbing Annette's ego while she rubs mine

With all this rubbing going on, my bloody glasses have steamed up...

Not a feature

It's a bug. The total of kudos is supposed to be there on the account page. I don't know why it isn't. This could be a big hassle and end up being the end of the kudos feature, just like I had to remove the votes module. In fact, kudos is the fourth or fifth voting module that I've used that turned flakey after a while.

Sigh.

Hugs,

For a non-feature

This is certainly featuring quite big on the hassle scale.

Perhaps our egos were never meant to be rubbed at all *sigh*

I don't just look it, I'm totally crestfallen

Flakey voting

"In fact, kudos is the fourth or fifth voting module that I've used that turned flakey after a while."

Hrm. That sounds suspiciously like what happens in Real Life, doesn't it?

EGO

To the bearer of this blog 100 EGO RUBS to be redeemed at BCTS

Come up and rub my ego sometime

Way-hey-hey!!!

It's not often I get an offer like that :)

Jessica
I don't just look it, I'm totally looking forward to this rubbing thing

It's just you....

...sorry, just kidding. I went to account for four different authors and two had kudos with an amount but two had kudos with none listed. It may be a software glitch. I think you're adorable, either way.

Just me?

You know, 'Drea,

You say the sweetest things.

Jessica's gone all cow-eyed now. It's going to take ages to get her back to normal.

Disappearing Kudos Theory

It's just a theory until someone with more info shows up. But I think that if the number stays the same for long enough, then it disappears from your account page. However, when someone gives you a new one, they all come back. It's happened to me too.

So, yeah, it's a way of telling you to write something new, and new thing often.

Now, now Jan...

That's baloney and you know it. You just want another story from me, don't you?

Go on. Admit it.

Well you'll have to wait like everyone else.

I'm not sure whether I have my muse back yet or not and have several pieces in the pipeline, none of which are even close to finished.

My latest seems to be going the best thus far and I'm hoping I will be able to use it in the contest. Please to be keeping fingers, toes and any other spare parts you may have crossed. This will be the first contest entry since El Dia De Los Muertos...

Just don't hold your breath.

Jessica
I don't just look it, I'm totally hoping this one gets done

Your Muse?

Your muse is in several pieces and in a pipe? What did she do that was bad enough you did her in and cut the body up? Can you make that into a decent story? ;)

Penny

Decent story?

I would say yes, I COULD make that into a decent story. However, from where I see it, the likelihood is, it would put the TG element on the wrong side and probably make the general populous here disinterested.

Not shelved, but on the back burner perhaps :)

Jessica
I don't just look it, I'm totally grateful for the story idea

Yes, we want another story from you!

If no one else will say it, I will! So far, I love your stories, and yes, every time I read one, I try to leave a kudo (and usually a comment!)

I do have a bad habit of hitting next chapter before I hit the kudo button (especially on Bike-I just can't wait for the next chapter! I'm up to #600 now-someday I'll be current!

Another story

I'm working on it, honestly.

I don't just look it, I'm totally trying to write something

According to my 'puter

Angharad's picture

you have some kudososssosis on your account page. Okay, I have few more, but then I've posted about 1200 more thingies than anyone else, and most of them only have one or two kudossssssisisis.

If you knew kudos, like I know kudos...

Sorry, wrong song.

I used to be so naive, I thought that Kudos was a Greek island.

Someone, somewhere must have a reason for this. Trouble is, they're not owning up.

Erin & team; just remember that a computer is merely an overgrown calculator run by an overpriced virus.

I'm indiscriminate; I love you all.

According to my 'puter. I'm probably somewhere around the 100 mark, but mine's done a disappearing act as well...

Oh well, that's a good an excuse as any to spend some time this weekend working on Water Torture 2...

Checked

Just checked your account, and, yup none there. Just checked my account, and they is all sitting happily in a row. How odd.
