You think too highly of yourself, Zekrom Black. I know about news stories 70% of the time before the general population ever does. As Xous explained in perfect detail, I usually just don't have time to post them right away. If someone does tell me about something I do not know about, I credit them; I have no reason not to, and if you check the front page of the site right now, you'll see credits going to a lot of people for a lot of things. Almost anytime I'm on my laptop, whether it be in class or walking to the bathroom (and IN the bathroom
), I am constantly checking for news. I don't think a single day has gone by in the past eight years where I have not checked for news, spare a few rare exceptions for extreme circumstances in my life. If you even read my news stories from this week, you'll even see that I mentioned twice that my stories were late because I did not have time to post them. I love it when people tell me I HAVE to credit them for things I've known about for days - do you think we'd even be popular for news if most of the time people were giving me the heads ups?
Also lol. I can't remember the last time I checked my profile. Was probably over two weeks ago.
