The requirement is to read at least the first 50 strips. More is better but if you only have time for 50 that's fine. Usually doesn't take as long as you'd think it would. And, if you don't like the comics, you can post about what you did and didn't like and why it didn't hook you. There's no rule that says we all have to like each comic, just that we have to read at least the first 50 strips and give our opinion.

Anyway, you're back in (although you've been moved to the bottom of the list). Keep in mind that people are now required to read and post about at least every other comic in order to remain members (barring extenuating circumstances like your computer blowing up, going out of the country for a month, or other good reasons for not being able to get on and read the comics).

Darn, I was hoping I'd be able to post before you got a chance to say anything... but I just got back from school. Next time, I'm posting my comic during the comercials of Cowboy Bebop/Fullmetal Alchemist/Bleach/whatever anime's on Cartoon Network at 1 in the morning...
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Actually, I did post pretty early. I just figured that, since everyone seems to have been forgetting when it's their week, I was getting tired of reminder them a day or two after the fact so I thought I'd just start posting early so the comics get posted on time.

Pfft, early on, I was the one reminding people it was their turn to post a comic. It would be pretty hypocritical if I forgot my own week.

I'm back in. ^_^ I'll do my best to, although sometimes I may not get all the first 50 strips in... well straight away at least...

Shauni has been dropped for inactivity. Stevenson, you really should be out too but since I know you were really busy, and aren't so much now, I'm gonna give you another chance. So it's suddenly your turn. Get an comic posted soon and you're ok. If you don't, you'll be dropped too.

Fair enough. I don’t really have time to read threw new comics at the moment. I’ll just check in and see what’s on offer. Can I rejoin some time in the future?

You can rejoin whenever you want. You'll just go to the bottom of the member list so it'll be a while before you can post a comic of your own.

Anyone there? If my comic doesn't get any comments it's staying up for another week.
