well, in my opinion, as far as CB goes....that whole individual site thing died out. Sure, there are still a few people that linger around their local sites, but the bulk of the posters are in the national board...additionally, the majority of the posters are still living in NC, with only a few subsets of outliersYes, I think we would be losing some of the NCSU heritage by combining the sites, but I also think a lot of people also come to TWW because it's a cool place to hang out...not because it's affiliated with NCSUjust my thoughts

i would hate to dilute the userbase. The one thing that keeps me coming back here over any other social message board is the ties to NC State and NC. It would be hard to keep TWW action news fresh, and to stay up on the local goings on in Raleigh with a more diverse base. Yes I am biased. I love my wolfwebs the way it is

^ Sir, I agreeI also think that problem could be solved with the addition of a subforum or two...which wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
7/29/2009 10:19:52 PM
^^ agreed as wellPart of the appeal for TWW is the Raleigh/NCSU community and seeing how it diversifies. I was on CB but never really got active, it wasn't as interesting. Making TWW more open to other schools I think would be cool, but going the other way I think would send TWW down the CB hill.

CB had one hell of an idea but didnt market it properly and im sure lack of funding was the cause.
7/30/2009 10:06:55 AM
lack of fundingand the shitty crazycode codebase
7/30/2009 10:17:09 AM
some of it was lost on bad investments
7/30/2009 10:18:03 AM
so i just got off the phone with these 2 guys who handle the site now. had a really good conversation and i think they are genuinely interested in being proactive about tdub. understandably, they have limited resources so the pace of change will be probably be a little slower than we might hope, but i'm encouraged that they are at least going to be moving in the right direction -shrug-
7/30/2009 12:09:16 PM
cut to the chase. do they wanna sell it or not?
7/30/2009 12:10:05 PM
tell us about the new nael and fael. A/S/L? Nerd status, etc etc. Will they grant you more power?
7/30/2009 12:13:11 PM
to be honest, it didn't come up. if they had had a crappy attitude and didn't care but to let it fade into oblivion while collecting any revenue that was left, i would have suggested it. but i was pretty happy with the conversation and i think it's worth giving a chance.^ i dunno how old they are but they aren't college kids. they have a fairly hands-off approach, which i prefer actually. and seem to be pretty smart and familiar with online communities and all that stuff. i doubt they will ever be part of the community like most regulars are, or even as much as nael was (which obviously wasn't much), but that might be ok. they realize that the community is self-regulating and that the mods here have already been handling things for the most part for so long that they don't want to come in here and change a bunch of stuff. which i appreciate.[Edited on July 30, 2009 at 12:18 PM.

7/30/2009 12:13:46 PM
What are the next steps they plan to take?
7/30/2009 12:20:20 PM
i dunno. it was mostly a conversation so that we could each understand the others perspective. i told them a little about tdub's history and the things that need to be fixed. if i had to guess, i'd say school tool would be one of the first things. but like i said, i don't know what their capacity for active development is so it's hard to gauge how quickly things might change. they definitely seemed eager to stay in touch (part of the problem they said was they didn't know quite how to get involved here or what the issues are. they asked nael but he never gave them any guidance) so as things develop, i'll be sure to post stuff

7/30/2009 12:30:21 PM
DON'T YOU ROLL ME YOU WANNA GO^ seriously though. what's not to like. would you rather they come in here and change a bunch of stuff without knowing how tdub works[Edited on July 30, 2009 at 12:32 PM. Reason : .]

Is anyone (you?) that is a regular going to have Admin privileges? To CrazyWeb? To the server? Shell access?I ask because if they're not going to be regular with monitoring not the use but the function of the site, then it's just going to be status quo...
7/30/2009 12:34:35 PM
i've had admin rights for some time now. i've put out fires as necessary, but i've been reluctant to make any major changes or new development since i'm a busy man and generally get paid for those types of services[Edited on July 30, 2009 at 12:37 PM. Reason : i've done my share of pro bono work in my life, but not for apathetic college kid owners i won't]

can we at least get rid of the oh shits and "error in / application" fixed before the tunnel painting?
7/30/2009 12:39:08 PM
has anyone ever met nael? and did you get a chance to tell him how full of suck he was?
7/30/2009 12:42:10 PM
I met him once back last fallHe was circumcised and had fairly big balls

they've kinda fallen off a little bit. i've had to email them several times about people paying for accounts or premie and their accounts not being activated after several hours, if not days.

What happens if he and punchmonk divorce?How does one get half of a web site?
7/6/2010 2:41:47 PM
it's written into our pre-nup. if we ever split, she gets permabanned
7/6/2010 2:42:45 PM
there'd be a revolt amongst the commoners if punchmonkey was permabanned
