Quoted from Miles Trahan
So my first thread was deleted, but now it's more than past the cut off and I think it deserves to be mentioned...

What's going on with posting the unproduced scripts? New ones haven't been posted in like two weeks, and the one I submitted last Monday night is still nowhere to be found. It's been more than 10 days, what's up? I'd just like to know when I can expect to see the thing posted, as feedback from fellow writers would be a major help, and the sooner I can get any, the better. I'd just like a heads up, and I'll be on my way...


Miles,

My apologies for my lateness.  The day job and family took over the past couple of weeks.  You are entirely correct, the intent is that any script submitted is either posted or responded to within ten days and I have, for the first time in 9 years of doing this, failed in meeting the expectation that I set for myself and for the site.  Thanks to everyone to came to my defense, however the fact remains, regardless of whether I get paid to do this or not, if I say I'm going to do something (like get a script up within ten days) it is incumbent upon me to meet that expectation.  

Don

It was probably I who deleted the post because you can look and see numerous other "Why isn't my script posted?" threads. I figure why should so many people ask the same question when READING the others will give you an answer that doesn't make you look like an ass. (Don has a pm and an e mail as well that wouldn't cause a ruckus to use.)

Too many people join these forums with hope of a big break but can't even format or wait until they've finished a draft that isn't going to be torn apart based upon format and spelling.

If you can't format or spell go to Conflict Scripts, they're slow and have a poorly run forum...

That wasn't hostile. You said that you read numerous posts about this very topic and started it anyway. Usually when you see numerous topics, you don't start another one.

Well, the thing is that I read old posts where Don or others had held to the "10 days or less" motto, so close to/after 10 days I figured it was worth at least mentioning. I wasn't trying to step on anybody's toes, I just wanted to see what was up.

Don is now back from vacation (as am I) and all is right with the world.

This thread has run its course.

Now go read some scripts.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!
