How FS submissions work:
Day 1: FS opens up Submissions Post AAA.
Day 1-7: People submit secrets that whole week.
Day 7: Submissions Post AAA closes.
Day 8-14: Secrets in Submissions Post AAA begin to be put up. FS opens up Submissions Post BBB.
Day 14: Secrets in Submissions Post AAA are done being posted. Submissions Post BBB is closed.
Day 15-21: Secrets in Submissions Post BBB begin to be put up. Submissions Post CCC is opened.
Rinse, repeat.

This IS in the FAQ, guys. Actually, MOST of the questions people ask are in the FAQ (hence why it's called the FAQ). C'mon.

When you have to make a large post declaring what most people can clearly see in the FAQ, you know that people are being stupider than normal. And that's saying something.

[personal profile] convault 2009-11-22 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
i think this should go in the FAQ

[identity profile] instrumentality.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
cool kids don't read rules.

[identity profile] instrumentality.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
that was my first thought. "aw damn, another yellow streak in the gene pool showed up, huh?"

[identity profile] elegant-corpse.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 12:25 am (UTC)(link)

Seconded.

[identity profile] van.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
So, if it isn't posted THAT SATURDAY I should resubmit it eight or nine more times?

evilada>: Best suicide plan ever
mcm310>: what is it?
evilada>: you go up to the top of a roof
evilada>: string piano wire tight across the front edge at neck level
evilada>: tie a cord to your foot and the other end to the building so that you'll be above sidewalk level when its fully stretched
evilada>: then you put super glue on your hands
evilada>: and put your arms around the front of the wire and then back to touch your head
evilada>: then you lean forward, so the piano wire cuts your neck but not your elbows
evilada>: when the cord goes taut, youll be hanging upside down with no head....except your head will be in your outstretched arms thanks to gravity and the glue, staring at someone upside down and spewing blood everywhere.
evilada>: And some poor bastard will be traumatized for LIFE.
mcm310>: i dont think i can be your friend anymore

To be honest, I've never read the entire FAQ and I'm sure I never read that part BUT EVEN SO with the sheer volume of secrets you get, how do people think theirs is going to go up right away???

Nevermind that all that stuff on the bottom of each post about "SUBMISSION POST XXX" with the # of secrets left etc. and the big fat SUBMIT SECRETS HERE (link to submission post YYY) should be a giant clue? idk call me crazy...

(Anonymous) 2009-11-22 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oh and don't get me started on people who submit secrets ON the secret post. >.>

BUT HOW DO I SHOT WEB?

THEN WHO WAS PHONE?????????

[identity profile] atanvarne-lj.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
And here I sit trying to figure out if your best friend, fscom, makes all those comments with links to images one at a time, or if s/he has a nifty script that does it.

Maybe it's in the FAQ...

BUT IT'S JUST SO CONFUSING :O

I AM 12 YEARS OLD AND WHAT IS THIS

[identity profile] joereaves.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
And the people who don't read FAQs probably aren't reading this either lol.

[identity profile] roxiful.livejournal.com 2009-11-22 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Ngl, I thought [livejournal.com profile] fscom was a person until that secret last week.
