Long after the thrill, of Spamming is gone.

Well technically all your library is, at the moment, is those two links. 
Personally I think that you should have done the initial development offline so that when shown to the public it already had some substance. At this point all it is, is the "youngest" SYMian spammer telling everyone else that he knows enough about the history of SYM to tell everyone else what it's about, and that he doesn't want input or help from anyone else (unless they want to do it away from the sacred library).
I think it's poor showmanship and shows no respect for everyone else here. Everyone contributing is one of the great things about SYM and by asking people not to post in your thread you are slapping people in the face (with a sturgeon for history's sake). You would have been better served to say (No Spam) but still let others post links, anecdotes, etc of their own since you know much less about SYM than some others that have been here for years.

There is probably at least 100 male members here that would love to save you (There is probably a lot more as well)
I'm to far off though... I'll send you a raft if it gets to bad.

I speak for the newb crowd, and as such I serve the newb crowd.
People should not suffer because they have not been around for years and years, so if you don't want to respect the fact that I want a clean, easy to navigate list of history, topped with profiles of users come and gone, then you can go suck a lemon.
You've completely overlooked the reason I don't want others posting.
If all you people are going to do if mess up my Library before it gets made, then I may as well just stop caring and leave.

Uhh...let people post what they want and keep amending your first post so it shows what people want to see...that would do the trick...
Besides, how many newbies are going to go looking for a thread they don't know to look for?
I'm not saying the whole idea is a bad one, but add some leeway...

Nano from Library thread]Oke wrote: That is not a very inviting start. This tone is what prompted my comment, not the attempt to have a clean and easy to read "history" or SYM.
I still think you would have been better served to say what you wanted to create, ask for people's input (but not spam) on other threads on similar topics, interesting threads that could be included or even user-submitted profiles of fellow SYMians. Then once you get everyone's input you could coallate it into a single repository of knowledge.
But thinking that you are going to do it all from scratch (especially since this very similar things have been done over time) is fairly arrogant. And asking people not to post in the thread is pretty much defeating the purpose of the forum (except for moderator-provided announcements).
No one is out to get you, as Rav stated, but I still disagree with the tone of your post. I commend you on the effort you want to spend to help out newbies, but I think you will have much more success if you make it something fun for other SYMians to take part in.
Yeah, so? They're more appreciative than you!ch85us2001 wrote:You all suck donkies!

Yep, you certainly do a good job of following that with your constant dissapearing acts, making people sad because they think you're really going then turning up 5 minutes later.
So, yeah, don't be too much of a hypocrite, eh?

My past experiences in forums hae told me that quite a lot of people only read the first line or paragraph before posting; so sorry if I wanted to get a point across.
