I am not that kind of girl!!

Today I was contacted by a fellow blogger, Diane from Fifth in the Middle, and she told me that I was a No Reply Blogger - whenever I read it, I say it in a loud, deep space voice.  I was like... huh.. what the heck does that mean...

What is a "No Reply Blogger"?  It means that every time I left a comment or a question on someones blog they couldn't respond to me.  Ugg...I feel so snobbish!! I thought that no one wanted to "talk" to me! I was wrong!! In fact, a lot of bloggers have this issue and I thank Diane for bringing it to my attention!!

I promise I am not anti-social...  In fact it's quite the opposite.  I talk probably a bit too much. I love getting to know people and making new friends!  So of course I am thrilled that I was able to fix this problem.

The problem is in the User Profile on Blogger.  Where it says "show my email address", this box was not checked which made me a no reply blogger (this seems like such a bad phrase to me right now).  I had my email address on my profile, it was just the box not being checked that made people unable to reply to me.  When someone would try to respond to my comments via their blog they got a message saying "No Reply Blogger".  So, apparently, I was being anti-social without even knowing it.  I'm really nice, ask anyone, I promise and now that it is fixed I hope to talk to many more of you.  

Fixing the problem is actually quite easy once you know how...Here is a link to Mrs. Lamb's the Tatooed Teacher's Blog and her tutorial "slides" are so simple to follow!!

 I hope this helps you and I hope to get some new friends!! I promise to reply if you have a question!! How rude of me!! ;) I am just not that kind of girl!!

 Happy Teaching,
