    Why are my submitted deaths never put on the site?

    I always have all of the proper information but they never show up. What gives?

    Do you really think you are the only one in the entire world to submit deaths?

    Do you always submit the FB or social media page of the person? We get alot of deaths submitted where the person just gives a news article and I don't have time to search for their FB, particularly if it's a common name.

    PM me the name you submit under - it's what you would type in the 'From' section of the submission page. I will search through the deaths I have waiting.

    Thanks for submitting the deaths though - we really appreciate it. You can also PM me directly if you have any deaths. Just send me all the info like you would put in the submission page. Mike owns the death inbox and he forwards them to me. He is usually pretty good but there are alot in there I know.

    Hi SammyGirl! We appreciate all the deaths you have submitted. Your most recent submission was just forwarded from my death inbox to Olivia yesterday.

    As for your last 5 submissions before that:

    1. http://mydeathspace.com/article/2012...in_a_car_crash
    2. http://mydeathspace.com/article/2012...im_from_school
    3. http://mydeathspace.com/article/2011...is_way_to_work
    4. http://mydeathspace.com/article/2010...morbid_obesity
    5. http://mydeathspace.com/article/2011..._while_jogging

    (I can edit/delete this post if you don't want to be associated with these submissions.)

    There were a few others where the profiles were no longer accessible, so there wasn't a death article created.


    We haven't been receiving as many deaths over the last few months, but last week it seemed to pick up again for some reason.

    Huge thank yous to everyone that sends them in!

    It would really be cool, if there were someway to send a "your death has been posted" note to the submitter. I don't want to make a lot of extra work for you all, just that it'd be cool.

    Like a Medic Alert necklace that people click while they are getting in a car accident? lol.

    I know there is some App out there that notifies loved ones when you die. Probably ripped off from MDS in some way shape or form, just like that shitty show 1000 Ways to Die.

    Yes, I always submit the FB page. I still see some missing that I have submitted but they never showed up. I was just wondering since I have seen posts that you all needed some new articles. Didn't know if I was doing something wrong or not.

    All I can think is that there may have been an issue with the FB's getting deleted. I'd guess about 30% of the submissions are invalid because the page gets deleted before we can add it.

    Lol this is why I don't create threads. I always think people are not going to look at them and I'll just get butt hurt over it for real.

    I'm new, so please forgive this question. It is probably obvious, but...
    Are the only "deaths" on this site ones where the victim or murderer had a MySpace or Facebook page?

    For example: http://www.justiceforjuliette.org/ is about a little girl who was murdered. Is that something that can be on here?
    Hardly anyone uses MySpace anymore...and Facebook pages are easily deleted.
    Just wondering how this site works. Still new here, but I'm really liking this place.
    Thanks!

    There needs to be a social media page- this can be a blog, twitter, facebook, myspace, google + etc. I do sometimes link to websites if there is absolutely nothing else.

    ETA - I can use that justiceforjuliette page if you submit all the info.

    Okay, thanks so much for the info.
    I was just wondering what might be the next big case after Jodi. Looks like these folks were recently indicted. I'll read up on it before I try to submit anything. :)
