School & MyBB

For the past 4 weeks I’ve been busy working on MyBB 1.4 and the upcoming Merge System as regular, but in addition to having to create a 4 minute video on the “Reign of Terror” with Robespierre for World History. I did this with two other friends. Seeing as most of this was done by me (most of the scripts, and the movie editing) I’ve uploaded it here for you to view:

As for MyBB, we’re continuing to pace forward. The target for the release of the Merge System RC1 (phpBB 2 & MyBB Converters) should be within the next few weeks. At this point I can’t say much more than that. The information flow will probably start to pick up soon.

GNU/GPL License

Recently I found myself updating my modifications / plugins to the GNU/GPL License. I’ve been asking myself why? And I think the answer to that is because it’s such a good way to share your experience, knowledge, and insight with the rest of the world and at the same time breeding a new generation of programmers through useful examples. I always knew there was a bigger part of me that just wanted to help people. What better way to do it than through the “most free” license out there?

Akismet - Big 2,000

Caught Spam
Akismet has caught 2,000 spam for you since you first installed it.
WOW! Without you Akismet, and of course, all of you great spammers, this could have never been achieved!
Now spammers… go drown yourself in a mosquito infected pool or hang yourself from an iceberg off of our melting ice caps.

Restoration

It is that time again. The forum market is now in a restoration mode for the oldies. phpBB 3 is imminent for release and rumors are flying about a new vB ACP.  This presents a great deal of pressure for the rest of us and causes market share loss. Although this might be bad, it’s [...]

Your and You’re

Recently Chris Boulton and I had a 101 lesson on Your and You’re grammar. It went something along the lines of this:

Many of you may know that the Rollercoaster Tycoon Section at the Atari Community has taken a downfall in the past few months. Spam, Advertising, people who think they’re above the rules, etc… It’s all getting really, horribly annoying, to the point where I don’t even like to visit it anymore. Everywhere I go, people [...]
