YOUR BLOGRINGS
We just made blogrings more accessible! For a long time, Xangans have used the Blogrings module to view their blogrings. But we’ve started getting lots of help emails about missing Blogrings modules.
It turns out that some skins and layout codes actually (accidentally?) hide the Blogrings module. We’ve been amazed at how creative Xangans are, and it does make sense to hide it for some site designs. So Monsur just launched a page where you can always see all the blogrings you’ve joined:
Please check it out and let us know what you think – and have fun with those awesome site designs

first!
but anyway… thank you. you guys are awesome.
Schweet. Well, some people hide their entire left modules…

pretty cool
Cool
spiffy
Yay! You’re the best!

thanks!
pump!!!
whoo! fantasmic!
pretty neat.
17th…
yay!
I HATE YOUR DAMN BLOG SITE. I CHECK IT ALL DAY LONG AT WORK AND CAN’T GET ANYTHING DONE. MY CAREER IS SUFFERING BECAUSE OF THIS FREAKING STUPID ASS WEBSITE.
i’m think i’m gonna join the xangahloics anonymous blogring.
its very helpful!
thanks but i dont see how to access it on the private site
oh well
and yes your site is addicting as hell. THANKS. i get in trouble for being on it so much. GRR. 1/2 the hits on my site are mine. GAH.
That’s a nice feature… but how about adding a “link” button in our new weblog entry page so we can replace the actual link with our own text?
i.e. link points to http://www.xanga.com/emmses but the link itself looks like emmses’ xanga site. I think this would be much more useful than looking at my blogrings. It would definitely save a lot of typing!
hahaa…
niiice…
any other areas y’all will become more innovative with??….
Ja Ne!

Blogrings are cool.

Very nice. I appreciate it. =).
Blogrings are great, but sometimes it seems like 8 are just not enough.
Cool – how about upping the maximum number of blogrings you can be a member of?
yay
yep, how about increasing the number of blogrings we can be part of?
really convenient. Thanx
wow.. hehe thatz kool

Mary, I’ve been having a problem with alternating comment colors on both of my sites ever since xanga tweaked them. I have tried over and over to get them to work with no luck. I don’t think it’s because of the backgrounds I’m using because others who have the same background have no problem getting it to work. Can you please help me? Thanks, Kaye
thanks any chance we can get an easy remove blogring button?
Hey, Mary is an osm name. its the name of God’s Mom
hey i dont think you know me
v_s_angels
tag your it
hey…narly.
how do you get one?
Their our layout makers on xanga like ex. [me, luxuriouslayouts_x3, lush_x3_lays, etc.] and can lay makers get their site shutdown if they jock?
are you a real person?!
Thanks so much for doing that!
It doesn’t work when i click SUBMIT to post my entry!
there is a virus going around and i think i have it on my xanga….i think you get it from visiting another site with the virus while signed in. it takes away all your entries and puts up a new entry. i’ve seen a couple other sites with the same message so i know its a virus. i dont care about taking it away but i just would like my old entries (they’re private entries) back because i’ve spent a lot of time on them. if you could help me figure out how to get them back that would be so great. my email is carole_ryu@hotmail.com. please please please help me cause this makes me really sad. thanks so much.

Theres an exodus worm about. It seeminly deletes all entries and whatnnot. Please tell the Xangans of this solution I came up with.
Delete people you’ve subscribed to that has been infected. Log into safe mode, click “Blog entries” and delete the entries with long lines of code in it. That solves the problem.

Passage: How to deal with the recent Xanga worm problem
This solution is in BIG 5 Chinese.
Hi
Thanks for all the great work you do. I have a suggestion though could you please make it an option to view a person’s xanga from first post to last so that way if you want to read from the beginning you can just scroll down and read instead of having to go scroll up past the post then read the post then scroll up to the next one. I hope this makes sense if not feel free to comment my xanga with questions.
Thanks again.
Kelly
thanks so much for sending me email explaining how to get rid of the Exodus Blogworm !
it really helps ! =)
What’s your favorite color?
How about adding the ability to have more than one protected list?
What are you doing with this hidden piece of source code?
Hey! This is Kelly Clarkson!! Are you a fan? If so… when you comment back, give me your address so I can send you an autographed picture of me!!

sorry i am spamming this to every xanga admin i can find, but i love my xanga and i hope someone will stop this before it gets out of control.
hey mary. i’m having a problem with my xanga. i went to someone’s xanga and it said what mine says. so i’ve been telling everyone to not go to my xanga if they’re signed into theres. (i don’t know if this will help, but it makes sense to me) and well i don’t know why or who. but i’m kinda pissed about it, especially because it’s screwed my xanga and the words they’ve choosen to use (which everyone that reads my xanga is able to access and read which reflects back to me) and this could also mess up their xanga. yeah. so if you could please see what’s up and get that fixed it’d be awesome. PLEASE. thanks -holly http://www.xanga.com/sleeping_To0_Dream
PLEASE HELP.
somebody has corrupted xanga.
what happened?
So there’s like, a virus or whatever it’s called that says
xanga admin owns you?
This isn’t those ads people comment all over xanga. I’m an actually person who wants you to help me win. PLEASE!!!
Use this search engine called Blingo to help me win a prize. No its not like those stupid “you win a PSP or IPOD” crap where you need to sign up and pay and get 4 friend to sign up as well and pay also to win. All you need to do is…….basically uses Blingo and search whatever you want to search like yahoo or google. Also as you search along the way…you can instanly win a prize. No need to sign up to pay for anything. Just sign up to make an account so that when you do win out of the blue, you can claim your prize. So just go to Blingo.com to search and go here to sign up. They even show you who won and when and where and what prizes there are.

Hi9 !!
Hello, Mary! I’ve commented on Chris’ Xanga and asked for help but I never got help, so I thought I’d ask you.
I have a problem with my Xanga:
There’s a person who flames me all the time. She/he writes mean stuff in my commentbox and presses the “SUBMIT”
button multiple times so that her/his comments will flood my comment box. I’m always
blocking her/him but she/he always comes back with new accounts. This has happened many
times before. I have found a solution to it, but first you need to modify the
“SUBMIT” buttons on Xanga.com. Here’s the script with the solution, so if you could PLEASE read it:
http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/blockdblsubmit.shtml
I would be so happy if you fixed it! THANKS!
It would be nice if you were able to search through the metros by certain paramaters such as: age and sex.
nice,

Thanks.
By the way, some people are getting tired of thetheologianscafe occupying so many slots of Featured Content at a time. May we suggest just featuring the blogger and linking to his site, instead of featuring the whole post? E-props can still be used as a basis, but the e-prop count for separate posts can edge out a lot of other people from Featured Content.
I think it would be cool if we could do more with blogrings. Like have member polls, a place where members of the blogring could blog things that other members of that blogring can read and if your in a blogring your suscribed to whatever anyone posts. It would be cool if the blogrings could have a calander, too. So it’s less of a list of people and more of a actual group.
Just an idea.
Amy
can we please have our entry dates and time edited? i wanted to copy my posts from my old site…. is that possible?
SWEET!! I’ve been wondering if there ever was a page for that but now my question has been answered!! YAY!!
i dont mean to be an inconvienience or anything,
but my new weblog entry thing isnt working.
it doesnt show the textbox, so im wondering whats wrong.
kthanks.

~Marge
Random Prop
Thanks! Another cool new option!
TAG UR IT!!!!!! THIS IS SOOOO SCARY!!! SEND THIS TO 15 PPL IN THE NEXT 143 MIN AND THEN PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS!!! IT IS SOOOO SCARY CUZ IT WORKS…BUT IF YOU BREAK THE CHAIN…YOU WILL BE CURSED WITH RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS! SEND IT TO 15 PPL IN THE NEXT 143 MIN….NO TAG BACKS
So tell me Mary do you all actually read the comment sections or just put them here for fun ???
I am a xanga premium lifer .. and I want to know what you and the guys are going to do with the porn on xanga … and the hate blogrings .. it is disturbing in the least yet , what is more disturbing is that you all obviously do not stand by your own rules and regulations.
just another xangan
wondering if she’s on a sinking ship
I’m posting here a comment I left on john’s blog about the hate blogrings and the kiddie porn blogrings running rampant on xanga right now:
This has nothing to do with the subject I know, but at the same time things like this you need to be aware of and going via the abuse link is of no help at all. Read THIS and you’ll see what I’m saying. What the author is addressing is a blatant disregard of the TOS you guys put in place and something needs to be done about it. This has some searches I made on blogrings. Again, something needs to be done about this as it is a violation of the Xanga TOS and since nothing seems to be done using the abuse links, I’m posting it here.
how did you get your subscriptions to say their names?? its really cool. i’d love to know. thanks!
you stole my name.
Hi, not sure if you are ever going to be able to read this, under thousands of comments, but i can’t get into the Xanga skins part of my page, it takes me to a sign in page and when i put in my user name and password, the page resets and asks for them again. It doesn’t even say i have put in a wrong password (because i tried that) Any ideas… i’m a premium user.
how do you put da smiley script????
coz i juss put it in my posts so when they commment me they could use smileys
but other ppls dont hab to do that
i think i am in love with you
Need better QA? It’s my specialty! hehe
OKAY!
why the eff did you all shut down my old site?
i didnt do ANYTHING. i think it is highly ridiculous. i had to make this new one and i had LOTS of work on the other one. you people…make me very angry…

Hi, my friend’s site, “greasyTNT” was shut down due to the age thing. She had the incorrect age listed due to security purposes. I assure you she is over the age of 13. Could you please help to restore her site? Thanks.
What’s going on in xangaville with sites out there? Here’s the deal…VaporousVenom was shut down. Non compliance? She was born in 1953, but had a birthdate of 2001 on her site. Is that the problem. DallaWalla and AnthonyC were shut down for the same thing…they’re back up now…VaporousVenom’s computer is at Gateway for repairs and she asked me to investigate. Can you please reinstate her site? Thanks
hey, I just saw a pop-up ad for sprite taking over my search query. What the hell is up with your promotions?!? I love that Xanga is free of intrusive ads but it’s disgusting now that there’s a sprite ad jumping up onto the page that I’m reading. Please stop with your onslaught of advertising. We all know what sprite is, and we’re not going to drink it because some stupid ad comes up and shoves the product in our faces. Pissing people off isn’t a good way to make money…
i am starting a fite against u retarts. how can u make xanga be at lease 13? well,this fite im strting,its about making xanga not be at lease 13.so fuck u all
Nice picure, Do u like to snow boared!!
Xanga ME

howabout ANNOYING
howabout DISRUPTIVE
howabout TASTELESS
