GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

just like everyone else, i'd also like to level up and get those cute emblems, so i've been reviewing shows and episodes, adding friends and constantly logging in here.

i'd like to thank the users i traked who tracked me back making them my friends. you're awesome! now, i only need a few more friends to get that emblem about number of friends. hehehe...

another thing that i did was submit quotes from an episode of a series i just watched. it was my first time to do it. i submitted 6 entries all within the hour i finished watching. after like 2-3hours, when i logged back in to tv.com, i received new messages and it says:

WE ARE SORRY BUT ........ WAS NOT APPROVED.

MODERATOR COMMENT:

NON-STANDARD QUOTATION FORMATTING

how stupid could i get? i just submitted items without properly knowing that there is a format. my bad. i'm really lousy when it comes to html and stuff like that.

so anyhow, i followed what the moderator said. i resubmitted one quote (just wanted to try first before i submit all the others.) i hope this time i got it right...

Go to the tv.com tips and guidelines if you don't know the proper format. Simply put a "b" inside tags and a "/b" inside another set of tags. Everything between the two will be bold. It's the same thing for italics just replace letter b with i. The person saying the quote should be bold.

Hope I helped and hope you continue to contribute because you seem like a good tv.com user. Another thing to note is that sometimes moderators may ask you for a source so if you have a website that has the quote from a show, or is reputable if you are adding notes or trivia, you should include it.

Sending quotes can be hard, I'd just keep at it and you will get better. Even if your submissions do get rejected you still get points to get a submission emblem ;D

Ugh, I hate getting rejections! When I first started subbing, I got everything rejected because of the format. Once you follow the right one, you'll get a ton accepted, don't worry. Try reading the Submission boards for more details.
