I <3 the newsbox.

The title says it all... I don't know what's up with it recently, but more than half of my daily hits come from the newshack. Mwah hah hah. I feel evil.

What in the black stump does I <3 mean??

Vorticus · Post by **Vorticus** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 12:49 pm

Mmmm, black stump. I think the "<3" is supposed to be a heart. And if I'm being facetious, mmmmm black stump.

Or alternatively that 3 is more than I. Which is certainly true when my clones are out shopping.

Okay...the black stump is a location way out in the middle of nowhere. It's not naughty.

But... You can't define that with combinations of imaginary/real numbers.

Also, go newsbox!

Man, I keep on seeing the same damn 4 newsboxes on every site I go to. Damn you, Fuzballz! DAMN YOUUUU!

There was a period where the only newsbox that showed up was Paragon Fishing. I'm sure Cortland can confirm this.

That's exactly what I thought when I first saw it.

For months, Fuzballz showed up EVERY DAMN TIME I visited the main page. Which was every day, since I'm addicted to guide rankings.

It worked, though - in the end I read the comic out of some weird belief that if I clicked the link, it would go away. it didn't.

That being said, the newsbox rules. Ever since I set up mine, it's been my #4 referral (after two versions of my URL and something called 'direct request', whatever that is), with 445 hits last month. I <3 you too, newsbox!

And honestly, people don't know <3? Weird. In the community I frequented before I got hooked on crac... er, webcomics, that was the single most used smiley.

This sounds really mean, but I don't have a newsbox because some of the advertisments are just EYESORES imo!

Like images with jagged halos around them, and badly scanned grubby pencil drawings. A little quality control would go a long way.

But Keenspace isn't about quality control....

(Although...sometimes it'd be nice....)

But those are honest attempts of people in the early stages of art crafting.

I'm proud to plug them all on my newsbox, EXCEPT for lame half assed stick figures on lined paper.
