They said that they'll be deleting article drafts after a certain period of time. I can't say that I'm amused or pleased with this news. 'Cause I'm not. Why?
For many reasons, actually. One, it's such a hassle. I posted those drafts there so I can work on them when I have time and so I can publish them on that site as soon as I finish with all the editing and proofreading.
Admittedly, they do say that only drafts that are 6 months old will be deleted, but that doesn't really make me feel any better. I mean, what if I forget or what if I lose track of time? Or what if some unforeseen event happens and I end up being unable to get my drafts from that site and then 6 months passed by? Does that mean that I'll end up losing all my drafts?
Needless to say, I don't want to risk it. So I'll just be moving my drafts from both Daily Two Cents and Writedge elsewhere. A few will probably end up here on Persona Paper. On that note, I'm real pleased that we can keep many drafts here and that I'm not in any danger of losing them anytime soon (at least, I don't think so :-) LOL).
Actually, more than a few of those drafts are from articles that I moved from Bubblews (also known as you-know-who, you know why. LOL) to those sites. Now that I've decided to move those drafts elsewhere, I guess I'll be posting them elsewhere too. I'll just be sure not to keep drafts on those sites anymore. Wouldn't want to risk losing my articles in case they end up being drafts for too long.
What about you? What do you think of such a news? If you were to experience something like that, what would you do? Would you move your articles too? Or set some sort of reminder to move them before 6 months passes by or something?
