I have no idea what you are going on about and you need to be registered to see the thread. Can we have some clues?

[sadako]

OK, The thread has gone live, Should now work for all people

The way it works, Totalfark subscribers see all submissions to stories, Those that have been approved for passing to the main site are "Greenlighted". When those submissions go live everyone can see it.

So......... you want us to follow the link in there to the MTV site and submit a load of personal details so that we can vote for a video called Whip it, by Devo which we haven't seen but which is hilarious?

WTF!

Has anyone got a smiley that says this is going completely over my head?

No I dont "Want" you to do anything, but the comedy of the situation is that often these request shows are messed up by someone getting a load of people together and ordering something horrific, 5 years ago people ordered new kids on the block on this show using email chainletters. Things have turned around somewhat when you need to order something good because the station is playing wall to wall crap, because the music industry tells them to.

Erm was that first post English? I am at a total loss and I think I am pleased.
