we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.

well sure, in much the same way you wouldn't understand random schizophrenic scribbling on a metro bathroom stall wall

i'm sure it's meaningful to someone, but is it production ready?

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

it was going to be compatible with every formatting syntax known to man because of the sheer power of functional programming

well yeah, when each post is a monoid in the category of endofunctors it's easy to describe pretty much arbitrary preserving transformations across the posting brane

boy I'm going to miss this place when the migration kills it and leaves a half-dozen "classic forum" spin off splinter groups who war amongst themselves in a race to the bottom that ends in someone creating a reddit subforum to scoop up the last of the shitposters.

i think the migration already happened. all the 30somethings who bought an account back in the day and still post here are probably in it for the long haul

pagancow should make youtube ads for the forums. they can go on a pewdiepie video or something

the users are out there, they just need the right branding

edit: the tagline could be "get in!"

do you think they will keep the icq, aim, and yahoo instant messenger sections in profiles? those are all important things to share with your forummates!

that's actually the second highest priority for migrating the forums, after the archives.

beyond that its just avatars, platinum, probes, permabans, and maintaining the rap sheet. with those problems solved I think they'll then be able to work on getting users able to view posts and create their own
