Hey there,  it's not the end of the world!  don't beat yourself up so bad!

You have a good idea there too, a guide would be great,  I think Brad does have some kind of article about making your blog popular,  ya I read that once or twice....a guide though to blogging would be helpful,  not all of us have been bloggers for a long time especially me!

When you post an article there is an option about having it go to the forums or not (also an option about it being adult content). Depending on how that is checked it might not be seen in the forums. Wheras adult content means you have to be a registered user to see the article.

Another thing I found is that even when you uncheck the forums button, it sometimes goes there as well.  But if you check the Adult Content button and uncheck the forum button, it tends to stay out.  If you really dont want it in the forums, change the viewing audience to just you.  Then only you will be able to read and see it.

lol.. I don't really care who reads them or sees them .If I did I wouldn't be posting it on the internet I just didn't want people to get annoyed that they were always going to both places. My brother told me I was doing it wrong.. stupid brothers
