It was by accident, I don't even know how. I was making a burner account, just for fun, under the display name "minecraft" (don't ask why), then noticed that the name of the blog was in blue, which means that it's a blog that anyone can write on, just like whitenoise, oppositelock, and photography. I also noticed under the menu where you click on your screen name a button that said "manage minecraft", where I can add authors and admins. Now of course, I'm not going to keep the name of the blog "minecraft". I've always wanted to make a blog like this, but I don't know what it should be about… Any suggestions? I'm interested in cars, tech, and science, so I was maybe thinking of something that combines all of those.

Music?

MAYBE. There isn't a kinja blog on that yet.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:05 |

I am assuming you post most of your car related stuff here, so for the sake of organization maybe keep the science and tech stuff there.

Exactly. I want demi-god like powers too.

How about Minecraft?

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!

Just a random burner account? I wonder if Minecraft.kinja.com was previously slated for a blog and was scrapped.

I like the idea of turning it into a music blog. Would have to change the name but that should be easy?????

I can't even figure out how to get a post put up on Oppolock and you create a whole blog. All of mine only show up on my private blog.

minecraft.kinja.com doesn't exist, and you can't make it either. Same thing with google.kinja.com, or any other company. Copyright, you know?

Tag this with "Kinja Help" and you might catch the attention of a real mod who can fix this.

You need to become an approved author in order to post on Oppositelock.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:15 |
|
You have to ask one of the admins here to add you. Same thing with every other kinja blog.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:16 |

You can post to Oppo now. You're an approved author.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:19 |

You might be a witch. We should probably burn you just in case.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:23 |
|
Good point. If you edit this post, you could change the tag to kinja help and get Greg or Ernie or one of the other techs to help out. That's really wild.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:28 |

Thanks! I was wondering how to do that, but didn't really know who to ask.

Accidents?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:31 |

No problem. We post the occasional "open post" to get new commenters, but myself and the other admins watch the posts for people who are looking to get in, or who we think would like the place.

Nah, he weighs more than a duck.

I tried logging out and logging back in, but it still shows personal only. Is there another way of doing it?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:36 |

Try now... somehow it differentiated between characters somehow. (you're added twice, which makes no sense).
![]() 08/12/2013 at 19:37 |

You say that, but if someone ends up as a newt I'm holding you accountable.

Music would be awesome!

Still doesn't show. Weird.

He got better.

Removed all of them, and readded you once. when you click on the GTCL on the upper right hand side of the screen, do you get just the GTCL blog or is oppositelock there?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 20:07 |
|
I get GTCL. I see where the follow was added, but personal still is the only thing that shows.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 20:23 |

Are you hitting the little arrow on the post form?
If you click your display name in the top bar (beside the notifications thing) is OppositeLock listed under "Your Blogs"?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 20:27 |
|
I am hitting the arrow, and no it does not show up as one of my blogs.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 20:29 |

Well, I'm not an Oppo mod, so I can't be of any more help.
Maybe reply to @Gamecat235 again to let him know. Good luck.

I would like to be added to white noise...? :D Is that how this works now?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:15 |

I let Kinja/gawker help know. Working on it.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:17 |
|
Did you recently change your screen name to GTCL?
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:22 |
|
No, I just signed up with kinja in the last day or so. I did change the screen name when I signed up though. I sign in under my google account though.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:25 |
|
Hmmmm, we might have to add the original screen name, but let's see if tech can make it work.
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:30 |

I'm fine with that too. It was crx4luke
![]() 08/12/2013 at 21:36 |

No dice with crx4luke. Tech support will hopefully be on it soon.

This actually has happened before. Read this article, which was shared to oppositelock, and see my comment.

Gladly. Let me know if you can post/see the oppositelock option under your name.

Added. Please let me know if you have the option to post to oppositelock (in your create a new post) and/or if you have the option for oppositelock under your name when you click on it in the upper right hand corner.

You were added. This appears to be the same issue that I encountered with gtcl. I'll make sure I add you to the incident. Thanks. We'll get you added.

Thank you! I'll try to make my stay worthwhile. And so far, negative on both accounts of anything oppo related appearing in any link on my profile.

BTW. If you haven't yet gained the oppo - authorship ability, let me know, Ernie is working on it still.

We've been experiencing issues with new authors. Can you let me know if you are able to post to Oppo? Or select it form the drop down in the corner?
