Suggestions for the forum
I came home today thinking about the structure of this forum. Well there seems none, apart from the division 'Vico's Bar' and 'Only Maybe'. So I had a thought… Next thing I know I read B. Kane's recent post on the MLA suggesting we all should visit five fora according to the Eristic principles. Bump.
My idea was, maybe we could have five chunks in this forum, in honor of Eris?
Verwirrung (Chaos) - this could happen in Vico's Bar as it's always been the depository of anything and everything
Zweitracht (Discord) - here topics could be discussed concerning the world at large.
Unordnung (Confusion) - maybe book discussions, movies, music… all that shakes our paradigms
Beamtenherrschaft (Bureaucracy) - for me this seems the right place for the present Only Maybe subforum, siriusly discussing all thing pertaining to maybe logic
Grummet (Aftermath) - could be a place for creativity, poems, drawings, soliloquous rants.
…My 2 patatows
Don't mind me, just testing to see if comment threading is enabled...
Testing to see how the forum is ordering replies. From oldest to newest?
Looks like the forum has been successfully hammered into something resembling shape, what else do we need?
The "catma" thing is still a bit jinxy, I tried to change "karma" to "catma" in the programming and it crashed the place, I'll keep playing with it.
Random chance Bobby, this forum rocks better and better!
To put it in your own words: excelsior!
Funny how software seems to revolt when karma gets bended… like a message from the gods. An even better reason to tell them 'screw you, girls' and to keep fiddling with it!
I'm just joking, man, thanks an awful lot for your valuable time, I cannot even imagine how you can combine all your obvious (meaning online) activities, probably even more we have no idea about, and still have a social life and enough sleep…
Did you first have to learn PHP before you could work with Drupal? I'm thinking of looking for courses myself.
For certain customizations & general trouble shooting its good to be able to muck around with the PHP code, but Drupal certainly makes a good effort towards having a very user friendly set up & maintenance process. I don't think taking a class is absolutely necessary, everything I know I learned by doing, though a class would probably teach you some neat development tricks.
and yes! I could probably due to get out more, and to get more sleep.
I just have all these ideas, y'know?
Make it more interactive and welcoming to the newbie...
Don't assume they know, but offer a chance to inform and enlighten.
Like who the f**k is Vico, or this R.A.W. character,
Lets not make it a secret, though it can be a fun inclusive game, of the knowing, and information.
Just my 2p.
You are absolutly right, and let's intend to build towards something of just that sort.
Very glad to have you on board, and very much look forward to your Korzybski dispensations.
Keep up the great work!
Yeah guys, looks great.
Slowly catching up...
That sounds perfect, Borsky.
I'll get started right now.
