Looks like the Sheepers might, MIGHT, get a one-week respite in between the Griftathons begging this time around.

Maybe it's not having the impact they claim to have? And you STILL can't edit your postings - that'll cost you another few million, say the Breadstick Robinsons. They ought to just buy their own Olive Garden franchise and be done with it once and for all.

Stop The Hammering!

And you STILL can't edit your postings

They have the feature and have had it for a long time. They just don't enable it for ordinary users.

JohnRob is a credible Perl coder. And editing a post is pretty easy stuff. You'd be surprised how little code it takes if you look at the source code for Pinguinite, LF's Perl code.

They don't offer post editing because they just don't want to. And there are people who would play games with it if they enabled it.

So exactly who is allowed to use this feature?

Stalinist Mod-Squaders and Goons?

JohnRob is a credible Perl coder.

But an incredibly poor Fairy Tale teller, rubber band saver and resuscitator of his Hamster Slaves.

1) "Oooops -- it's gonna take me ...er...a few hours to get to....er...our secret base somewhere in North America. Our rubber bands must be made in China!

2) "WE WUZ HACKED!! Dats right -- RUSSIANS!!"

3) "Oooops. I forgot to feed the hamsters. And dust off the Packard Bell SX. Be right back. IN A WEEK."

I was only pointing out that lack of talent isn't why FR still has that whole Nineties Web 1.0 look. When I was on good terms with JohnRob and we corresponded some (I was writing a Firefox extension for FR), he showed me some hidden prototype versions of the site that were a lot slicker in their use of CSS, more minimalist, almost looking like Apple's website in their minimalism. I thought it was terrific stuff but he never went live with it. I'm not sure if RimJob spiked it or what but JohnRob was pretty sharp. He had some other ideas about caching and other server technologies that indicated that he stayed very current.

Of course, in the end, TOS is still a vanilla site, scripted in Perl and relying on a MySQL database. Just like LF does.
