message 101: by [deleted user] (new)

I sorta skimmed it. I guess the majority of the "spring cleaning" will be moving the books and whatnot. Get that done and we can see how things looks. I know with some book series, like Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, they've got other books that go with them but are by different authors...it might be more convenient to try to find a way to keep those together...kind of try to do mostly authors, but if it's directly related, keep them together...

All the harry potter and percy jackson books i know of are by the original authors. Which ones are you referring to? I'll start moving stuff around. After that's done we can add popular books/authors that are missing


message 103: by [deleted user] (new)

Like with Harry Potter, there's Tales of Beedle the Bard, Quidditch through the Ages, and Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
those are all technically written by JK Rowling


message 105: by [deleted user] (new)

Seriously? I thought they had different authors?

they're pseudonyms that she created to make it seem like they came from the wizarding world


message 107: by [deleted user] (new)

Hmm. Never really knew that. I knew she had one...can't remember it...but I didn't know she had others.

I've mostly finished renaming the folders except for two. This is going to take a while to get used to

I'm done. How should we continue now?


message 110: by [deleted user] (new)

Idk. I'll look


message 111: by [deleted user] (new)

It looks fine. Unless there's some way to get rid of some of the older stuff (2014/2013 except for the writings that there are) it looks pretty good

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
what do you mean by (2014/2013 except for the writings that there are)


message 113: by [deleted user] (new)

I know there's a couple things that haven't been touched in over a year. I don't think we should get rid of anyone's stories though


message 114: by [deleted user] (new)

I know there's something in advertising. I haven't looked at them yet but I don't think it's only writing in there

Hi Sheyenne!


message 117: by [deleted user] (new)

Actually looking at some of them...I'm just so used to dead topics. This group must be more active than I thought. Forget I said anything. lol. Sorry


message 118: by [deleted user] (new)

Ok.

Sheyenne, do you have any suggestions for cleaning the group?

Nice to meet you too.

It's alright...I still feel new. lol

That's fine. We were all there once.

I'm half tempted the say put the folders in alphabetical order, but it would be a pain


message 122: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
One of the original mods had an idea to divvy up duties. Maybe we should do that again to get the stuff done faster|?

What do you think Artemis?


message 124: by [deleted user] (last edited Jan 09, 2016 11:58AM) (new)

As I now control my own life, I don't think that'd be a problem. We should try to get the others too though. That way they'll be on the same page. And I was honestly thinking alphabetical order too...but like you I thought it'd be too much of a hassle. lol

GTG for now though. I'll check in later

Bye! hah, great minds think alike.

Alisa hasn't been active since summer last year. I don't know where Emma is (she's know darkness is upon us). I think for right now we should just divide them between the three of us.

I know folders need to be made and topics added. How extensive is your book knowledge? I don't know of anything else right now


message 127: by [deleted user] (new)

Mine's probably very limited. If we compile our ideas, we might get a bunch.

Ah ok


message 128: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
Perhaps a group effort? I'm pretty sure we know major authors and different smaller ones, so we could all make folders and put the book topics in them.


message 129: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. That's what I meant. But I'm going for the night.


message 130: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
We should probably have a list of what's already been created and update it so nothing get replicated


message 131: by [deleted user] (new)

cant talk much today. Babysitting

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
Good morning! That's fine. I have homework to do and people coming over so it will be a on and off thing


message 133: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
I've been looking at my bookshelf to see authors that still need to be added and then adding their books from there


message 134: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
i'm going to make a list of the authors and books we already have probably in a new topic so nothing gets doubled.

What is y'alls opinion on inactive mods?


message 136: by [deleted user] (new)

TBH...I wouldn't really do anything. I had to disappear for a year...for one, it's almost been a year...this summer it will be. The other was last active on GR in November. I know it's a long time, but give them until maybe June, when it's summer and everyone's out of school..


message 137: by [deleted user] (new)

We could try to message them, but inactivity is becoming common. For mods and others...

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
I was mainly thinking about Alisa, but yeah I say they get to the end of June.

The inactive mods have till June to be active or modship is no longer theirs

Sounds fair enough. That would definitely be a year for Alisa. The other girl, that's half a year...I think?


message 141: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

Crystal (wisegirlonfire) | 469 comments Mod
Yeah, half a year. I'm actually hoping they'll come back. I miss them

One of the inactive mods.

It took me a year...but I came back...

You still are. It's fine. I was inactive with all my groups for like 3 months
