~ Enough Excuse: Fix or Axe the Chat Room ~

[spoon]

Seriously, we all know the staff/owners here accept no responsibility for the chat room's issues, so in the very least SHUT THE FUCKER DOWN. I'm sure the "economy" will be used as a crutch here as it usually is when one has no interest in true solutions these days, but it's time to make adjustments for Christ's sake.

Here's the latest attack block on my comp, yet others weren't so lucky to catch it.



What is Data Execution Prevention?

Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is a security feature that can help prevent damage to your computer from viruses and other security threats. Harmful programs can try to attack Windows by attempting to run (also known as execute) code from system memory locations reserved for Windows and other authorized programs. These types of attacks can harm your programs and files.

DEP can help protect your computer by monitoring your programs to make sure that they use system memory safely. If DEP notices a program on your computer using memory incorrectly, it closes the program and notifies you.

Perhaps if our fearless (HA!) leader (HA!) wasn't so busy banning people poking fun at twitter, building legos, tweeting pics of their fucking lunch, and "setting up/in the process of setting up" great events (event planners are AAs so you know). It's funny how you have 7,000 fucking USELESS tweets but can't be bothered to work your own fucking site. Sell the fucking thing Jon, seriously. I and other can buy you out easily right now, and I'd love for someone, anyone in the owners group to give two fucks about the God Damn site.

Stop trying to kiss ass in the twitter community by setting up their tweets to be read by a bunch of fucking tools. The sad thing is Jon, you didn't do it for the right reason either, you did it for the exposure and contacts...just like the bulk of those involved. The combined group's ACTUAL social skills surely showed too in the enrollment as well as shown by you're own words. So fucking sad that you didn't even bother to mention this on the site or to the show, but that would mean something more than an impersonal faggy tweet.

"My contributions of the NYC Twestival went beyond simple Wordpress development. I created a live feed to appear on the screens at the event to display any twitter tweets that people tagged #nyctwestival. I was very proud of the feed that night to see people staring up at the screen and having their words appear for everyone there to read.

With just three weeks we were able to successfully pull off all our goals except one. Our ticket presale fell just short of 1,000, which unfortunately caused a sponsor issue. We had promised an open bar, which we found ourselves unable to now provide, since 100% of all ticket revenue was going to Charity:Water. We were very disappointed, but there was nothing we could do.

The event was a complete success, raising $24,000 for Charity:Water. Everyone had an amazing time, from the attendees to the volunteers to the organizers. An amazing party for an amazing cause.

The creation of the NYC Twestival was a magical experience. Three weeks of hard work by a group of strangers who came together one night in January, who grew into something more. Now I know what happens the Monday after the Saturday detention in the Breakfast Club, we have become good friends who continue to talk, hang out and enjoy each other’s company. We will work together again on future events, but it will never recreate the experience we had creating the NYC Twestival."


More money is raised outside of the local target with a fucking bell and santa suit. Still, at least you worked your way out of the basement for a few hours.

Have fun at the twiffle ball game! :wallbash:

The chatroom suxs!! Even Sinestro doesn't try to go there anymore.



Can I play second base this year instead of the other fellow? He can tweet more in right field.

[Sinestro]

I know it won't replace or be as simitaneous as talking in a chat room but how about a Chatroom bombshelter?

Are you kidding, I doubt he'll even show up with two balls and a list of demands this year. The crux of his prep for the game in the past was fill out team rosters before we actually see who shows (stupid), pick up 2 fake softballs (the type used for young girls and retards) and making sure he has his jean short/black socks/black batting glove outfit ready the night before the game.

Sorry Jon, 8 years of fuckups and bullshit excuses brought all this on. You fucking earned it. I'm pretty sure you should start twitter.net and give this up bc you seemingly have no interest in your own fucking site. You surely don't have an interest in the problems it has, viruses it's helping spread unless it ties in to your ulterior motives. I used to blame others here, but you're the one who ultimately calls the shots in the end, especially on the tech side of things. In the least, perhaps you could delegate some authority to those who give to fucks and or bow the fuck out. With the likes of Reillyluck and so many other useless mod appointees, your judgement is seriously in question. Oh and nice way to handle that fucking trainwreck. Ignore it. I see a nice trend here from a man of ACTION!

[biggestmexi]

seems like you to are doing a great job chatting right here.

That post made so much sense.

If you had a Vag, Jon would make you Mod.

Listen to the man, shut the fucker down.

A solution?

WTF is going on!?

Someone out there read this and make it happen for fuck's sake. So that means someone tweet it to Jon.

Wait....there are ideas that come from outside of the braintrust of the site?

Which is why nothing will come of it unless Jess starts a podcast or somehow gets minor access to the show....then wamo!

Jess, do you have the 4,509th podcast that needs a forum that JustJon can tweet about and waste more time with?

The funny thing is, this site used to be about hanging with the schlubs and schmucks, not a pseudo means of getting up some retarded ladder and or token to land chicks at bars bc you "organized the event".

Now come on..."organizers" don't get chicks, they creep them out.

You know what would help them, be fucking real and stop with the God Damn act in front of them all. Perhaps then they won't run into the arms of an std having sex fiend. Just a thought. Something HAS to be wrong when things like that go down.

That one might have been from BritneyPablo...

[Marc with a c]

the word twestival actually makes me a little mad.

the chat room sucks, and not because snoogans is always is there.

[jessicaduh]

it really does suck. not for nothing, but i went in once in my first days here, and thought "wow they should really use everywhere chat or something, because this blows."

[mikeyboy]

I'm all for dumping the chat room. It seems for more throuble than it's worth.

Maybe that other free one would be good.

[Gvac]

Those free flash chats don't allow cameras or audio to stream, I don't believe.

If that's the case you're better off just creating a chat with Yahoo Messenger.

You can cam up then.

[jessicaduh]

there's pretty much no upkeep. it just needs to be used once every thirty days in order to keep your room private, or some shit.

then give everyone the room name & password for when they log in, the end. it runs itself.

Sounds good to me. Nuke ours and go with this!

No cama and no audio = heaven. I like the sound of this free chat more and more.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

I like having a spy/malware free computer, so I ditch chat


a better / safer chatroom would be nice

[WampusCrandle]

so, what is the chat room status now?

[topless_mike]

empty.
nobody in there.

[WampusCrandle]

empty.
nobody in there.

i meant in terms of it getting fixed or if we are supposed to use some other site to do so.

[Gvac]

Odds are it won't get fixed. It's an outside source that supplies the chat and in case anyone hasn't noticed, the Admin with technical knowledge has all but abandoned this site.

It doesn't appear that another type of chat room will be added any time soon.

I guess we could go back to the old days when we'd just create a room with AIM.

People still use AIM? What is this, the 80s?

[Gvac]

and to think you wanted to Hall of Fame for this place ...

To enshrine those that were here when the place was fun, before the whole thing crumbles.

Well at least this got sorted out!
