Of course, these are only those that some ed felt guilty enough to send a message. Others deleted without comment or a by-your-leave.

Post-Scriptum: I must express my deepest gratitude to the Soylentil who sees fit to gift a subscription to me, since I am not able to contribute to SN, even though I almost never agree with my benefactor. We need more Soylenils like that.

    Ari, this has been explained countless times to you.

    Your submissions tend to be biased and sensationalized. Remove opinion pieces. Remove entries that serve no purpose other than to rile people up. Then you will probably have better luck getting submissions accepted.

    "Just the facts ma'am"

    Also, while many of us love to talk politics, this is primarily not a politics site. Keep that in mind when submitting stories as well.

    You are the one with a problem, not this site.

      If only Snow, or Arik, or even janrinok, could explain to me one more time the guidelines for submissions, and why nearly on aristarchus submissions on one particular topic are declined, I am sure that then the beacon light of understanding would shoot through my mind like a diamond bullet. Or, not. Because censorship is indefensible. It's the hypocrisy, mostly, that gets me.

        Your silly intentions aside, it's that your style, regardless of the crowd it draws, is not front page material. You simply have to find a place with lower standards.

        I'm not sure you will ever receive the attention you crave, but I am enjoying the attempt

          You seriously missuppose my intentions, my lovely AC! Happy to be of amusement, however.

            Your intentions, and even the content of your submissions are completely irrelevant. It is your demeanor that nobody wants to see on the front page. We are much more attracted to your whining right here in your little journal. This is where you belong. It's your little chapel where the curious can come in and gawk.
