You're making the operator's life a lot more difficult, having to try and detect bad humor, and deciding if it is a reason to act in and of itself. [01:27] poor cranky jenda [01:27] :) [01:27] i thought you were going to sleep [01:27] it's half past 1! [01:27] I am, just need to finish up a few replies. [01:27] yes, it is. [01:27] that's early by my standards :) === tsmithe too... [01:28] and you spelt humour wrong!!!! [01:28] you cannot call yourself european [01:29] I can't call myself British. [01:29] And am happy not to :) [01:29] evil one! [01:30] why happy? [01:30] that's just nasty [01:30] I learnt my english in Washington DC - proud to use it as such ;) [01:30] you 'tard! [01:30] do you have an american accent?! [01:30] (I'm equally as bad at creating lame humor as I am at detecting it, BTW) [01:30] I used to. [01:30] HUMOUR!!! [01:30] I'm afraid it's long gone :( [01:31] good [01:31] never be afraid [01:31] I now have a rough, Slavic one. [01:31] good [01:31] that's much, much nicer [01:31] quiet ;) [01:31] :D [01:31] why? [01:31] I liked my american accent :) [01:31] nooo! [01:31] i was going to /ignore you for evilness [01:31] but if you've lost the accent... [01:32] meh [01:32] meh!? [01:32] If you /ignore me, you'll miss your last warning. [01:32] ;) [01:32] my last warning? [01:33] once I really get mad at your enter-as-punctuation or manual-auto-away or british accent. [01:33] :) [01:33] lol manual-auto-away [01:34] without britain you would never have had your ruddy american accent [01:34] true [01:35] and what kind of idiot doesn't put a u in humour? i mean, more countries in the world use en_GB than don't [01:35] that doesn't mean i have to like the british accent. [01:35] you don't like it?! [01:35] why? you've never even heard me talk! [01:35] Countries aren't as important as population. [01:35] (fortunately) [01:35] yes they are! [01:36] they induce culture [01:36] And *I* don't put a u in humor. [01:36] thus proving jenda's idiocy [01:36] and btw: humor is not a word [01:36] It is nowhere stated that people who don't put the u in there are idiots. [01:37] And humor is a word, with two meanings even. [01:37] it's bloody well not redundant! [01:37] and I'm not going to argue with you, and this is offtopic.

[01:14] It might be a bad idea filling the site with trash, too. [01:14] hrm... [01:14] For example, I'm not sure if I should do a re-run of them posters or not, wondering if it would be worthwhile having a page for that... or not. [01:15] Yeah, I might be inclining towards not, myself now ;) As you can see, I haven't had time to think about it much :) [01:15] would this somehow fit into the best practices section of "spread it" [01:15] hehe [01:16] I think it would be more fit in the shipping section, because I don't see that section filling up. [01:16] gotcha [01:16] People will be coming for ready-made materials... [01:16] ...they'll see that we offer A, B and C, but not D-Z... [01:17] ...if they know exactly what they want, they'll urge about it, I'm sure... [01:17] ...but if they aren't completely sure,... [01:17] ...and if we have a page about D-M, for example, of stuff that ain't out yet, but might be if people show enough demand... [01:17] ...it might help show that demand. [01:18] But a forum thread can do just that as well... [01:18] I like your idea ... but yes, I think that the forum is the place for it [01:18] ...at the same time, I see no reason why not to have an 'under consideration page' which would have a picture, and a link to the forum thread. [01:18] we can always set up a permalink to the relevant forum thread :-) [01:18] HA [01:19] [01:19] OK, I'll give this some thought... [01:19] yes, I like all of the Digg-ness that's going on with our design [01:19] I don't think it's a bad model to follow - it's familiar [01:22] Diggness? :) [01:22] I digg all the like-ness that's going on, for sure ;) === jenda doesn't understand, BTW [01:24] sorry..... I was just referring to the fact that we're looking to make diy more of an aggregation of links [01:24]
