Blog

[Burning oil]

Mods just tring to get the word out for/to those that may not know as I did'int until a couple days ago. Please let this stay up in the 6.5 section for a few days then move it if needed.
Anyway we can blog here! look at the bottom left of each post and you should see "blog this post" or go to "forum actions" at top of pages click general settings then scroll down in left hand column at bottom will say "blog" click on that.
Management was going to pull the ability to blog because of not enough interest. It would be cool to use it more.
When you start a blog like I have you will see under your avatar "blog entries" click on that #. Others will be able to see you have a blog and might like to go there for addition info about things you have to say.

Thanks, Leroy -- I guess the only thing I would add is that your blog is where you get to tell your story... you can keep a diary or log (weBLOG), a running account of your holidays or truck project, whatever you want. Other people can read it and comment on your tale. It is YOUR space; we hope you enjoy using it.

HOWEVER - it is not the place to put requests for assistance or ongoing conversations, because nobody will see them unless we happen to look in your blog. Put regular stuff out in the regular forums, please.

We weren't going to pull it because it was unused as much as it was MISused... people were putting requests for assistance in there, and they were going unread unless we accidentally happened upon them.
