So editor can I ask you what some of your ideas for the future of detnet are? I mean I am just curious, I mean this site has been a part of my life for the past 1.5 years and I would like to see it grow and become really popular again and I would be willing to help and stuff (I really can’t do anything except sit on my ass and drink mountain dew) I could lend my moral support. I know your busy and stuff but I sure would like to know what the plan is.

Yeah, good call... The people have a right to know and all that tosh :D oh bugger I went all english and said tosh!

Yeah, if you need anybody to sit around drinking beer and posting mindless tosh (there it is again) i'm there for you.

I am very much happy to help in any serious way I can also though, if you ever need any writings for the site or anything similar you all already know how much I go off on one when it's something that interest me... I already have a few if they are still saved and I haven't deleted them yet. (such as why become a tutor with the stress levels so high and the pay so low?)

OK, but if we run out of maltesers i'm gonna go all crazy on your ass.

I wouldn't say i have a "right" so much as i just would like to know what the plan is.

Wiley's $0.02;
I think it would be cool to have a e-zine with news, tips and thoughts written by the readers for the readers.  A select few would write columns based on their personal hobbies, interests or line of work.  These articles would in turn add fuel for the forums as well.  I would really not like to see this site turn into an Ars, GeekNews, Slashdot type of news site where all the news is ripped of each other or more legit news sources.  I mean, Cr0 never had any "real" news just a lot of satire stuff pointing out how stupid the people of the world are and contests mocking Windows resource sites with their cheesy giveaways and such. We should tap into the collective Detonate body for our news and articles.  I figure that everybody knows a little something about something and they should share it with the rest of the people ...as long as they can write it up in a legible cohesive manner that is.
But first off we need a website  ...any website.  We can change it later, but we got to get something up.

so basicly a kuro5hin.org site?  (isn't that how they work?  I always had it bookmarked but never read it...)

I liked detnet the way it was, really.  Sure, it was slow, and I'd like to see more content more often then it was, but I liked it.

I'm thinking maybe something like wiley said, but a select group of individuals (maybe 5-6 people) are a form of judges, and people submit stories or tutorials or something, then the judges vote on it, and a majority vote posts it to the site, in a slashdot manner, of sorts.

I really like what Wiley has to say; it's very close to what I imagined.
W; wanna stop by after work?

Of course I'd like more content.  Been waiting on RT for that site for some days now.

Richard, what's going on?

Editor,
I wish I could, I have a dinner date at six though.  Maybe Sat night or through the week next week.
Ok, here is my offer.  If everybody sends me whatever Detonate art they got lying around (I'm not looking to reinvent the wheel here) I will put together a site this weekend to at least get something up.   If we like it we can keep the layout  ..if not it is at least better then a splash page.  I'll let everybody preview it and if it's ok by all I'll send the HTML to Editor or he can point the DNS to my server.
However if it is on my box I will put an SQL backend on it and make it a bit more dynamic.  Editor, you will have full control via command line, RDP, Web based admin  ...whatever you need. Ok?  So send me some art  ..I got too little time to put art together this weekend.  
email wiley@cbk.net or post art to the ftp site

Do you mean things like Big title art, link buttons, menus and general stuff like that?

If I decide to neglect college work for yet another weekend I'll see what I can get done.
