Living Room / Re: Anyone playing Mass Effect 2 game yet?

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 11, 2010, 10:21 PM »

I'm a pretty hardcore gamer, but this is one game that has been on my radar for awhile, and I STILL ain't got around to trying.  It looks absolutely awesome so I'm pretty pissed that I ain't tried it lol

Just came across this rather amusing little page:

http://www.shipbrook...om/jeff/mozilla.html

It should certainly be of interest to any lovers of Mozilla

Site/Forum Features / Re: Should we experiment with google ads on the site for 1 month?

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 11, 2010, 04:08 PM »

Where's the simple yes/no vote clicker?
Experiment? YES.
Label it so - CLEARLY. Along with the option out. Let google promote its' ads in such a way that the users here want to see what they're up to (lol), or not.

-justfarley (February 11, 2010, 11:41 AM)

Dunno about anybody else, but I didn't quite understand this...

Are you saying you would like to see Ad's on here, but giving the user an option to 'opt-out' of seeing them?

Its a pretty sad effort for a Social Media/Lifestreaming outlet...I've seen some bad ones, and this is amongst the worst.

-Stephen66515 (February 10, 2010, 02:05 PM)

Why do you say that?

-wraith808 (February 10, 2010, 03:24 PM)

They are not including any of the features that are loved by the users, there is no way to 'export' your posts, and it seems like a very very simple platform, which could be launched by anybody, they should of taken a leaf out of Facebook's book, or even adopted scripts such as PHPizabi ... at least those have interesting features

Idea: Place Google ads, on a hidden section of the website (no main links on any pages, except in maybe a forum post) that way, people who want to donate, but are unable to, for one reason or another, can do so, by clicking a few links?

This wouldn't affect the website in any way, and it wouldn't have to scare off prospective members.

Yes it works.  It DOESNT technically need to be on a USB drive, but its handy, just in case there is a problem with the wordpad on a target computer.

Easily portable from a USB stick, just download the RAR file attached to this message, unpack it, and put the folder (and ALL contents onto your USB drive)

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 09, 2010, 03:04 PM »

I may be wrong but their referencing system is a bit dubious to say the least - I got involved in debate a while back about another page and just got totally frustrated & gave up.

Is there a way to search (bing google whoever) for "donationcoder" but to exclude this whole site?
That way we could throw in a few external links, might help

-tomos (February 09, 2010, 02:55 PM)

Ive just actually spent about 30 minutes searching for any decent 'backlinks' to DC, but couldn't find a reliable enough source to be honest, its unlikely that you can hit Google with a 'DC' search, whilst excluding any domains with donationcoder.com in them, seems like a good idea, but unsure its actually possible.

Your BANK will NEVER ask for you to confirm ANYTHING via e-mail, this is a scam that has been going around for a long time, if they require you to confirm anything they will call you and ask for you to come into the bank.  Even if they ask you to do it over the phone, you can refuse and request to go into your local branch.

I have received e-mails off banks that i do not even have an account with, telling me that there has been 'fraudulent activity' on my account.  These have been arriving for about 12 months, the easiest thing to do, if you have ANY concerns, is to simply ignore them and contact your bank directly to ask if the info you have been given is correct.

Just remember, make sure they have your up-to-date contact details and you will be OK.

NEVER TRUST E-MAILS CLAIMING TO BE FROM OFFICIAL SOURCES AS THEY WILL 99.9% OF THE TIME, BE A SCAM.

The following link is for the UK but it is also valid for the rest of the world.

http://www.shropshir...9E4E802574C100447396
(RAW LINK) - Always hover over a link and look in your status bar to check if the link is actually what it seems to be...


Example:

Hover over the following links and look in your status bar:

Http://www.google.com

Http://www.google.com

Notice, the first link, takes you to google, and the 2nd link looks like the same thing, but if you hover over the second link, you will notice (in your status bar at the bottom of your browser) that it takes you to Microsoft.com...

Hope this helps

I am assuming you mean the 'Spoiler' option, if so, just click the button that says 'SP' (in between the topic title and the smileys) and type between the tags!

Very easy to use

Spoiler

Just click to reveal...im only guessing this is what you mean

as far as i am aware, this is only for use on the forum, you cannot use this tag on any other platform (unless you see the option)

In which case, I can't be much more help to you I'm afraid, this is the only explanation I could think of as it happens to me also and I took a stab in the dark at troubleshooting it for myself, figured it might be the same for you.

Living Room / How a computer works: The Router

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 08, 2010, 04:55 PM »

We're all used to seeing the various parts of the Internet that come into our homes and offices -- the Web pages, e-mail messages and downloaded files that make the Internet a dynamic and valuable medium. But none of these parts would ever make it to your computer without a piece of the Internet that you've probably never seen. In fact, most people have never stood "face to machine" with the technology most responsible for allowing the Internet to exist at all: the router...
