Replying in Journals

Just a quick question about something. Suppose I leave a comment in someone's journal. This person replies to what I say, but their comment appears in *my* journal. How does this happen? What's the best way for writting back to someone so that they can be sure to see it?

Usually if someone leaves a comment in your journal, it's best to reply in their journal. They're more likely to see it that way.

leave a comment in *their* journal [click their little purple name to get there].

How do I quote what they say when I leave a comment in their journal?

manually.. just use the quote boxes..

or don't quote.. i don't think ive ever seen anyone do that.. its just the sg way

Ah got it. Thanks everyone!

or you can really confuse the fuck out of them and post a reply in someone else entirely's journal...then leave little clues around the site for them on where to go to find their response.

You're it!

*runs off*

You are too cute.

my reply to your post is in a woman with blue hair's journal...

This literally made me laugh out loud!

I was thinking the same when I first got here..i got it right,.

I give up this game is no fun. *cries*

A few days ago, I was inspired by a passing reference by WhiskeyFightPit to Eddie Money that I went around 10 or 12 Journals and stuck in references to Eddie Money completely out of the blue. The less sense they made, the better.

Nobody noticed. But I was pissing myself with laughter, so I'm good.

Hey, you spend your entire life with yourself; gotta amuse yourself some time.

I've done it, cause I'm a dork.

Someone attempted something like this. Instead of posting a journal entry, she tried to post each word of her entry in a different, random place. Different threads on the boards, people's journals, etc. Everyone's response was "Interesting idea, but I got sick of searching for all the words."

Damn, you caught me... now what?

*kicks pine cones*

Great Scott. For a second I thought TFOK was pretending to be a newb.

dude you kill me

yeah willow did something like that

see, now I feel bad, because I haven't responded to the last post you made in my journal yet.
(or have I...check the green haired goth kid from massachussets journal. it's in there.)

Or you can respond in your OWN journal, and they'll never figure it out.
