Yeah, I was in there at one point, I forgot what happened... oh well, I don't care now.

35. What is more important: writing to your diary or getting hits, comments or becoming well-known on Dland or well-known as a diary writer?
Ultimately writing in the diary is more important, but of course I want hits and I do want to be known.

40. If you are a Gmember, why did you sign up for it? And if you aren't but would like to, why?
I don't have a credit card.

41. Why did you originally sign up for your diary account, has the reason changed during your stay at Dland?
Umm... I originally had another diary at scribble.nu, so annachan was supposed to be my secret diary, but then scribble started to cost money, so I just completely started writing here.

What?

45. What makes you link to other diaries?
If I like their diaries, I will!

46. Diaryland ad banners, good or bad?
Usually bad. I can't find any good diaries through the banners. They're so misleading.

47. Diaryrings for Gmembers only, good or bad?
Well, everyone cane join, but goldmembers can make them. I think that's a good idea, if I could make rings also, what would be the point of buying goldmember?

48. Diaryrings, good or bad?
Most are good, but the ones that are like anti-something. That creates discrimination, so that's bad.

49. Old Analyzer vs. new Analyzer, good or bad?
I'm not sure what you mean...

50. Do you wish to evolve as a writer through or using your diary, or do you just write?
All of the above.

51. Do you ever plan what to write, or is it all spontaneous?
Sometimes I plan if a certain thought or incident pops up, but other times it's spontaneous.

52. Has writing a diary helped you in any way, or have you had negative results?
Mostly it's been helpful. I have heard negative comments, but those will always be there no matter where you go.

53. Has your diary ever been found by someone you've written about?
I'm not sure, I don't think so.

54. Have you ever shown your diary to people you've written about and if so, what did they think?
Yes, I have. I couldn't tell them to their face because it was too hard so I told him to read the entry and that was that. It was about how I felt about him and stuff... so yeah.

55. Have you written a cast, terms list, or anything similar on your diary for readers to catch the meaning of words and names in your diary?
Yes. Here it is.

56. How do you review your own entries -- what kind of entries are good ones, what bad?
I don't review my entries... but I do like the ones where I talk about how I feel. My day to day logs are so boring sometimes that even I don't want to read them at times.

57. Have you ever deleted your own entries and if you have, was there a particular reason?
Nope.

58. Why did you choose to write a diary online, instead of keeping a locked book under your pillow, so to speak?
I used to, but I find online easier just because I can type a lot faster than I can write and sometimes when I'm writing down stuff in diaries I think too fast and forget what I was thinking when I stop to think about what I am writing. Plus, my wrist starts to hurt after awhile because of writing so fast.

59. Do you think there's a big difference between online and offline diaries and if so, what do you think these differences are?
Besides the fact that anyone can have access to your diary, the wrist hurting thing I was saying before...

60. Any final comments, thoughts, words of wisdom or random babble about Dland, other diary hive sites, diary-writing online or in general?
Nope, not really. Diaryland is great and so is online journaling.
