    Dina wrote a new post, My Wishes For Literacy Base To Make This Site Easier To Navigate And Popular 7 years, 9 months ago

    I have been here since January of this year already. But still until now, I am still groping as to where I should be seeking things with regards to the comments in my posts.

    Though, through clicking and […]

    • I joined yesterday and same with your concerns, I found it hard to navigate the site and edit published posts.Maybe the admin can modify the site to make it user-friendly and be popular.

      • Yes, it would be nice to have those that I have wished here, especially the notifications bar.

        And I forgot, how I wish they have the emoticon board too.

        It would be nice if they would take this as a constructive one and maybe think about implementing them too so this site will have more members. Some are deterred by the complex ways here and maybe by the minimum number of words.

        Actually the 300 word minimum is not hard for me because even at the other site, I write long post also and I always have to edit it to make short because I know the members there don’t like reading long posts, just like me. ha ha ha

    • I think the site in it’s current state is navigable. But recent posts and the blogs, and forum updates are not easy to access. I mean if it were all in front page, that would be lot better. Instead of widget such as active members, we could see more recent topics link posted. Then again they have tweaked the website that way. I am sure they have their own reasons.

      • Yes, of course they have their own reason and style . Though, perhaps they should also try to hear what our suggestions are to make this site user friendly.

        That way, even those other people who would come here for the first time, would find it easy to post and be here, and be an active one here.

        If there are more active members here always, this site will thrive.

    • I’m a newbie and just joined today. I have to say that I agree with you. It’s kind of confusing because I don’t even know how to navigate around the site. There seems to be a lot of wishes that you are asking for but would LB be able to fulfill them? I sure hope so because those are interesting points that you raised. And yes, a notification button would definitely be useful.

      • Actually, what I did is to click all those icons I see and discovered my way around.

        Well, I don’t expect them all to be fulfilled, but at least I tried to voice out what I wish for this site to become- popular!

        If this site will be so user-friendly, a lot will come here and be a member too. If there will be more active members, interaction will increase thus it will be a joy to be always here.

        I don’t actually expect my wished to come true. I just want my wishes heard. Who knows the fairy godmother here will grant some, if not all.

        Besides, my wishes are also for the good of the site. 🙂

    I have yet to find someone who does not get angry in life at one point of time or another. Especially anger seems to come even to a small child at the drop of a hat.

    We love to blog at Literacy Base, this is the section allowed us to share our ideas and knowledge.

    There are more and more members started to write blogs and being more active and keen to write after Literacy […]

    • I agree with your points. Some of the time the topics don’t warrant 300 words. And that’s when we have to write the content in terms of the personal viewpoint. For many of us that seeems to be the only way. You can also use the references like someone else’s opinion and then comment on that. This way reaching 300 words won’t be a problem.

      • I have noticed that to some, to make their post be for about 300 words, they talk about those topics that gets them to enumerate things. That’s good, at least we can learn from them.

    • Thank you for posting about the earning capacity of blogs, my friend. That answered one of the query I have in mind for the past days, though @cely has already messaged me about it.

      I like making personal blogs. The thoughts flow so freely as I type them. No need to make a research of facts that we are talking about.

      Personal blogs are relatable , so a lot can comment back. At least, with the personal blog we can be assured they are not those researched and copied ones from some parts of articles on the net or a book.

    • Good suggestions to take into consideration. Thank you for giving tips on how to do our topic.

      You are also right that it is easier to read the 300-word article rather than the lengthy ones.

      I haven’t written a 500-word article yet. As you said, a 500-word article the rate is $0.22 or $0.00044 per word.

      To apply the rate to 300 words, total earnings will only be $0.132 as compared to $0.15 earnings for a 300-word article.

      Please correct me if I am wrong. I might just be confused.

    kaylar wrote a new post, Naming Your Children; Think About the Child 7 years, 9 months ago

    There’s been a trend to give children rather ‘irregular’ names.   I am lumping a lot of different types under the word ‘irregular’ and will explain.

    Ethnic

    There are many people in the Western Hemisphere who […]

    • I was given a name I don’t like. It’s just a simple name but I don’t like it. My mother said she liked the way it sounded so she named me that. But not to me.

      We named our child with a Joy on her other name. She only likes the other name but not the Joy. She seldom use Joy with her name. But of course, with formal documents she uses it with Joy.

      We added Joy in her name because I was surprised when I gave birth on Christmas day as Catholics practiced for December 25. I was happy that her birthday is the same as Jesus’ so we added Joy.

      Unfortunately, she finds Joy corny. ha ha ha

      • Well your name is nice. I know you are a woman by your name, and Joy is a wonderful name. She’ll like it when she gets older.

        Her only problem is that where everyone gets Xmas gifts And some other time of year.. Birthday… she only gets one.

    kaylar wrote a new post, Using Kindness Against the Giver 7 years, 9 months ago

    In a previous item I referred to Christine and Hazel.   Christine was a Charge d’Affairs of a particular embassy and Hazel was a helper, (maid) recommended by the Embassy.

    Now let me give you some […]

    • It’s sad that Christine’s charity and being merciful was returned with greediness and dishonesty.

      Having discovered that Hazel has stolen many things from her, I think she will learn her lesson.

      But in my opinion, even if Cristine will give Hazel the standard pay, she will still steal from her. Her dishonesty is already innate in her.

      If I were Cristine, I would have reported her to the police and be jailed for stealing from her despite her generosity to her.

      • I told her to. I said, think of the next person, think of who ever hires Hazel next. But she didn’t.

    • My good Lord how unappreciative can people be. One thing I can say is that they were both idiots here is why.
      First when you for warned Christine about the pay of helpers she thought you must be crazy to pay someone so little money and went on ahead and paid hazel what was due of her. This is pure arrogance or is it ignorance, you don’t want to listen to people you just want to do what you feel is right, well you may be very wrong.
      As for hazel she was just uoutrightly stupid she didn’t think with her heart but with her mind. How can someone pay you double of what your supposed to earn and you still steal from her, if that is not stupidity then I don’t know what is. Hazel is indeed a bigger idiot because if she knew what she was doing to herself she would never have stolen from Christine. Am sure that when she was thrown out all she had were the little things that she stole and sold, once she got the money did she invest it? I guess not probably because she knew or thought that she will keep doing those things for a long time. That money and stuff that she supposedly sold am sure didn’t do her any good and she could be in poverty right now. Why can’t people just do 1hat they are supposed to do and stop looking for easier and faster ways to gain wealth. For Christine her life did not stop neither did she loose her job, but one thing is for sure she has definitely learnt her lesson and now knows that listening can save you from making mistakes that will cost you. As for hazel she lost a good boss, a job and a good life all for more money I hope the sacking taught her a lesson.
