The rumor was about me. I shouldn’t have brought it up. It bothers me because a lot of people believed it. A lot of people I thought were my friends. It was timed right and just convincing enough to look very plausible. I’m not saying what it was here, though. I’ll ask you to leave it be, because, like I said, rumors only spread while people talk about them. But I’m not going to lie if you ask again. If you choose to, my e-mail is visible to you.
Use that.
Short of those around here, and Kassee…er…Chase, I haven’t been in touch with any of the old crew. Some of those I’ve seen aren’t really the same anymore. The Mod Wars and a well-placed rumor or two has changed many of them for the worse.
I think we could do it. And remember, I’ve got the writing skills for this job.
“Dear CBS/CNET, We are the users of Help.com, and we’ve watched over the last year of two as the site has slowly deteriorated. We appreciate all that you’ve done to maintain, host, and monitor the site. However, we also understand that fixing the myriad of problems now plaguing the site is not your highest priority. To remedy this, we think we may have a solution. Attached to this e-mail is the full code needed to restore our favorite website to it’s former glory. It’s a simple text file, and if you run it in Dreamweaver, you’ll see that it will indeed fix the problems Help.com is struggling with. We hope that the time and effort we’ve put into fixing the site for you isn’t too little, too late. We also hope that our volunteer work in doing so can allow us to better apply our volunteer work on the site as soon as possible. Below is the list of our e-mail accounts, please reply to all of us with your decision.
it seems worth a try…jeff said he doesnt have anything to do with it anymore because its owned by CBS. If we could get a working code they might implement it, but like jeff said, be careful how we approach this, because they may end up either revamping this site into a web 2.0 piece of shit, or get rid of it completely.
Ooh! Ooh! Make it some kind of quest for the Holy Grail. And say you lost contact with the Dragon as he rushed in to face the fluffy white bunny of doom.
I have a bit of an idea. Looked like there was an article about some kid getting arrested. Someone posted something saying “it’s Xeno Dragon! here’s his site!” and they linked here. Apparently, someone came here via the link and yelled about it, and some people believed them.
The things that happen when I go away for a while…
Because you’ve been kind of a prick lately. Especially to her. I don’t know how this whole thing started, but one of you needs to apologize and make up… and it’s not going to be the Mod.
True. Even though I’m an insanely old member, there were a lot that were old when I was new, and they’ve just sort of faded. I think there are maybe fifteen people I can think of who have been here longer, and are still here.
I imagine we all wind up filling a niche, and without me being here, someone else did what I now do.
