To anyone interested/bored
« on: 28 July 2006, 16:30 »
Ok, being my entreprenurial (sp) self I've decided to start something that is kind of like proposing to climb mt everest with no legs or arms...

SO!

Let me explain a bit, I have a domain that i've had registered for a while, after some prodding from a certain MES mod I decided to buy hosting and put it back up, except this time I have actual purpose to my domain...to create an all encompasing computer wiki...so let your mind wander as to how broad that might be, however I'm not insane enough to sign myself up to write the entire thing (I like the idea of not being schizophrenic by the age of 25)

anyone who feels writer-like, please, by all means, go for it

now, here would be the location of my forum:
http://www.unknowndomain.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=3#3
please don't join just to post crap, this actually seems like a good idea, hoping I can find other people of a like mind on this...

EDIT
yes i've edited this three times, to fix the link

Hmmm someone accuses me of "bashing new members" ... so just because they're new I can't "bash" them ? Besides, I did not intend any bashing here, I just asked a reasonable question. If someone has a question specifically reguarding software problems ... I'll bet a shitload of money it's gonna be software runnning on Window$ ! Am I really unreasonable in asking this ?

The MES needs more members, we don't need new (posting members) being scared away:)

That's true, and I try hard not to bash them, but you know they sometimes just piss me off. Actually, I don't bash newbies anymore than I bash long time members, but always for a good reason ...

rubbish! fuck em! if they can't take the heat, they should get off the internet.

there's too much walking around on eggshells in this world. if people just said what they think, freely, then there would be less pent up tension, and probably fewer wars and less bad feeling all around, because everybody would feel like they were saying what needed to be said.

If most of the people I knew were truly saying what they meant....violent crime would sky-rocket...

oh really?

are you sure that it isn't the other way round? ie: if they were all doing what they said, violent crime would skyrocket.

seriously though, it must be obvious that if people let off steam by being a bit verbose, they are going to feel less annoyed by whatever they were venting about, and so they will get over it more quickly, hence: less problems generally.

it takes two peopl at least to start a fight, and i can't imagine violent crime eg: muggings and rapes going up because people start saying what they think.

So ... you say you want "to create an all encompasing computer wiki" ... you mean like this one:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer

can you give a few more specifics ?
