hehehe going through my old chatlogs on AIM:
quote:Conversation with radiumsa at 10/10/2011 12:13:25 PM on SAAssLowtax (aim)
(12:13:30) SAAssLowtax: so what is the ETA now?
(12:14:37) Radium: ETA just makes you mad, I can't put a date on things because things change as I work on it
(12:15:15) SAAssLowtax: they make me mad when you say something definitively will happen on one day and it does not
(12:15:58) SAAssLowtax: I'd just like to know what is going on and if anything will be ready either this week, month, year, etc
(12:16:30) Radium: I've been telling you what I'm working on
(12:17:17) Radium: right now, I could finish it tomorrow, but things keep coming up that I have to do and test, etc, so I can't promise it
(12:18:09) SAAssLowtax: yeah I got one email Wednesday explaining things, then one on Thursday that said nothing, then one yesterday saying you're still working on SASBI
(12:20:22) Radium: yeah... not sure what you want then
(12:21:08) Radium: you want like a daily report type email?
(12:21:33) SAAssLowtax: nevermind
(12:21:39) Radium: wait, I'll call you in a minute, this is retarded
(12:21:46) SAAssLowtax: I don't have my phone with me
(12:22:02) Radium: poo poo
(12:22:03) SAAssLowtax: we've had this conversation a million times and it has never resolved anything
(12:23:19) Radium: I've been telling you what I'm working on, if you want something different just tell me
(12:23:32) Radium: I can send details, I just didn't think you were big on micromanaging
(12:24:49) SAAssLowtax: I don't want to manage poo poo, I just want to know what is going on.. For example, you said before you'd have it up and running on the dev server this weekend. Then nothing happen. Since you broke the date you initially intended to make, I would like to be kept in the daily loop explaining what is happening.

quote:(9:14 AM) Lowtax: what changed with the forums yesterday?
(9:14 AM) Radium: a bunch of stuff, why what happened oh god
(9:16 AM) Lowtax: nothing, I just had no idea anything was going to happen until I read the notice on the forums, so everybody was asking me what was going on (including Frags), and I had no idea
(9:16 AM) Radium: I told you I was going to be working on the database
(9:17 AM) Lowtax: when?
(9:17 AM) Radium: not sure, I told you I was going to be putting stuff in and had to restart but the downtime wouldnt be long
(9:17 AM) Radium: whats the problem, I dont get it
(9:18 AM) Lowtax: there's no problem, I was just saying people were asking me what was going on and I had no idea
(9:18 AM) Radium: there was a message right at the top of the forums that explained I was gonna be making database tweaks to improve performance, haha
(9:19 AM) Lowtax: yes I read the message, the people read the message because that's what they were asking me about
(9:19 AM) Lowtax: nevermind, forget it
(9:19 AM) Radium: I dont understand
(9:20 AM) Lowtax: just forget it, it's not a big deal
(9:20 AM) Radium: well you get mad everytime I work on stuff so what would you rather me do? :P
(9:21 AM) Lowtax: you honestly think I get mad when you work on stuff?
(9:21 AM) Radium: it seems like it, I have an icq plugin that detects anger and that thing is off the hook right now
(9:22 AM) Radium: what the hell... my icq history is blank
(9:24 AM) Radium: do you want me to start posting threads before I do stuff like that? I just do the system message thing because I figure its more anonymous and everyone will see it
(9:25 AM) Lowtax: That would probably prevent people from messaging me and asking questions I can't answer. If you could post a short thread in QCS or something and link to it from the announcement, I think people would read and appreciate it
(9:27 AM) Radium: ok
(9:27 AM) Radium: people PM you or what?
(9:28 AM) Lowtax: yeah, other mods and admins, just asking what's going on and how long it will take etc etc
(9:28 AM) Radium: haha, that really is confusing to me why they would do that when there's a message at the top of the forums answering that question
(9:29 AM) Radium: tell them read the message
(9:29 AM) Radium: "The forums will be closing soon for maintenance. We will be making several changes to the database server that should make it faster. The downtime should be brief. Maintenance is over when this message goes away."
(9:29 AM) Radium: also, do you find it is slower/faster?
(9:30 AM) Radium: and sorry Im hyper - I just drank a pot of coffee
(9:31 AM) Lowtax: you seem to be forgetting that people pretty much live on the forums, so that message to them is like coming home and seeing a sign that says "HOUSE CLOSED, COME BACK IN A SEC" and then they wonder what was changed in their house
(9:32 AM) Lowtax: I think it seems faster
(9:32 AM) Radium: see, Id love to just keep a blog about maintenance, but the reason I dont is when you list specifics it generates criticism and Ive been doing so great avoiding that :P
(9:32 AM) Radium: Im 5000X happier since I stopped posting
(9:33 AM) Lowtax: who cares about criticism, as long as you post anonymous and don't confront or address the people trying to troll, it's not a big deal
(9:34 AM) Radium: eh, its all going well so I dont wanna demolish my new ivory tower

Why you gotta be breaking the little man's balls from your ivory tower?
If he wants to play video games all day instead of doing his job, just let him. I bet he "worked" from home.

I did some work back on VB a few years back and it was an absolute clusterfuck of bad practices, outdated methodologies, and spaghetti code.
I'm not sure how you'd find anyone sane to work on it. I actually ended up firing the client because I didn't want to gently caress around with it anymore.
