Forum: Site_Feedback Topic: SOMEONE STOLE MY SURVEY Author Message Lex #5 posted May 6, 2003 at 5:48am (EST)   Just a thought here. As a software developer, I was thinking about what it would take to do this, and it occurred to me that you only need to.. 1. Dont reset the 24 hour timer on subsequent edits of the survey. 2. Don't check the qualifying crieria (50% etc) 3. Dont check the HF votes. 4. Amend the help text. - ie as you are only removing features, it should be a really easy change to do. Lex #6 posted May 2, 2003 at 6:36am (EST)   Consider the "whats the last thing you stole?" survey currently in qual. If probably been done by a newbie, who may well turn out to be a paying regular. But if hes treated like this, he'll probably just give up before hes started. And who can honestly blame him? In fact, the survey is not too bad really. It does basically work, is understandable, does not actually *need* options. Its good enough in fact. The comment made by kate (sorry to pick on you here but its a good example IMHO) of "...it should be 'What's the last thing you've stolen' ..." is just being pedantic about grammer and would likely annoy a newbie. Its not an english exam. Its a fun community web site after all - and the community is excluding new blood by this. Lex #7 posted May 2, 2003 at 6:26am (EST)   Do this soon bill. 1. Person creates a survey... 2. 24 hours of comments. 3. Persons edits his survey as he sees fit. 4. Person confirms survey. The quality of surveys will decline, but the quantity will rise, as well as the number of members. I'd say that this is a worthwhile change.

Forum: General Topic: Question for gays. Author Message Lex #8 posted April 15, 2003 at 4:22am (EST)   The answer given was basically the tribal answer... ie people associating with each other adopt similar manerisms. Examples are Sports fans all wear the same clothes, people in a town all having the same accent, etc etc. In which case the answer is that its learned, rather than innate. It sounds like the right answer, IMHO. Lex #9 posted April 14, 2003 at 10:32am (EST)   The question is about 'campness' - is that innate or is there another explanation for it? I've not implied that being gay is something that someone chooses to do, I also doubt that its a choice people would make. So back to the original question.. where does "campness" come from? Lex #10 posted April 14, 2003 at 9:14am (EST)   ... and why, exactly, is it a 'dumb' question? A lot of gays ARE camp - fact. I would just like to know why. Next page (only 10 shown here)
