We don't have rules because we're hoping to attract a more mature audience of people who don't need rules.

This doesn't always work.

At Geekhack we turn that model on it's head.

Immature users.

Mature moderators.

I noticed how you avoided that in your survey. You must have learned from this guy.
Hey, a Linux Moderator!

Are you saying I don't give people choices? There were clearly two choices in that survey.







They just both happened to be the right choice.

I bet moderators are plotting right now to ban my #1 Survey as an Inline Sig.

They keep plotting behind my back.

And I'm NOT paranoid when I say that! I've got the WikiLeaks documents to PROVE IT!

My other idea is if Deskthority.net admins can't figure out how to automate Wiki leeching that they convince some college student to take an unpaid internship to do it this summer.

Unpaid Interns I hear is the next big thing.

I sure talk a lot.

Could see how that would get annoying to some Senior Geekhackers.

I thought iMav was at the New Orleans Intel wireless tradeshow? I've been to Intel booths before.

My kids don't like rules, so I'm unable to parse this. But it sounds really nice!

Back up!

I even linked to this thread to see if I can be banned For what I say OUTSIDE of Geekhack.

Like Facebook and employees.

So?

It's a free country!

I recommend IsItUp because you can set your default site as Geekhack.org and the ads are not tooooo bad.

http://isitup.org/Www.geekhack.org

Perhaps Webwit could just put a little flag on the main page?

I like motorcycles too.

I am getting SO good at predicting these outages that I am sure many of the 22 Geekhack Moderators think I am the cause. After all they blame me for all of GH's problems.

Is this bad ping btw? I'm not all that technical.
Www.geekhack.org is up.

It took 1.37 seconds for a 302 response with an ip of 65.111.241.205.

Go back to check another site.

What's weird is the motorcycle site is quite snappy. Almost DT levels.

Is that iMav's bike site? lol

I think it's Ashorts.

ripster

11 May 2012, 17:20

I think I better put this one on my toolbar.
Www.geekhack.org seems to be down!

We got a 503 http status code with an ip of 65.111.241.205.

Go back to check another site or save this as your default.
Saves me the mental anguish of wondering whether I've been banned each morning I log on.

11 May 2012, 17:23

And STOP PMing ME WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. THIS APPLIES TO OCN'RS TOO!

I don't have a fucking clue.

Ask the moderators. There are 22 of them. Some of them have a clue.

Everyone pm Ripster to get the low down on what is happening at GH. He is just being shy.

I am but one of 22 moderators.

PM them.

Not Silat. He got removed from that position.

Reminder to self, back up Ripster's Key Switch Repair Guide for this poor OCN member to get my OCN Rep Points up to 240.

Hey, with my OCN 240 Rep Points I get....I get...

hmm...

Maybe I should concentrate on Reddit Karma instead and try and beat Webwit there.

What a fucking HTML showoff.
