What should HPC:Factor do next?

As soon as school starts & I get the school newsletters rolling I would love to! The only problem is I would need the basic info because I am not an hpc user.

I am sure we could sort you out with hardware, that husband of yours has enough of them for a starter loan until that time

You are so very right camie! I was trying to find a box for something & it nearly took me an hour to sift through all the product boxes he has stashed away in the office.

I think you should have a GPS handheld and cards forum. The GPS handhelds often run some form of windowsce.

Actually, there have been several threads about this; were you thinking of this site creating a separate forum section for PNAs (GPS devices)? (Interesting idea. )

Yeah - another row of forums dedicated to GPS devices. I want to glorify my Magellan Roadmate 3000T. It moved me to another state and has helped me find my places. I've liked it so much, I want to learn about older cheaper GPS devices.

Discussion on quotes moved to the bugs and suggestions thread: The title of this thread is "What should HPC:Factor do next?"

Quiche,

I can understand your desire to request this, it does however go against my principal argument for the structure of these forums - the forums are OS level, not device level. I've beaten this out with Takwu before, and there are good arguments for and against it.

If I could add a sub-forum for PND's into the CE4/5 OS forum, I would do it. Alas that gem is one thing that the forum code lacks the ability to add, and I don't have the time to be rewriting the thing at that level. now, I know that Evil E, another PD9 user has managed to add this into his modified version of the board, but this version of the board is heavily modified as well. The change would not be easy.

The section would also need to be moderated, and we don't have enough moderators as it is.

sort out those two problems and you've got yourself a sub-forum.

Hi!

I'm just wondering what it takes to be a moderator. By and large the boards seem to be fairly clean of flames amd trolls. I always put it down to the kinder, gentler souls who use UMPCs, although in hindsight it may well be due to vigilant moderation!

Anyway, my point is that while I am not a frequent poster, I am a frequent visitor, so I'd like to help in whatever way you think may be helpful, be that as a moderator or (heaven forbid) writing the odd article.

I must warn you that much as I love my H/PCs I only have two, so am fit only to bask in your reflected glory rather than stand among giants!

I really don't know at this point because I am NEWCOMER.

I am really learning from all of you TECH people all of you are the GREATEST.

Without HPC FACTOR SUPPORT I think the HANDHELD'S WILL BE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE.

give me a few months with HPC FACTOR and maby I can comment on the above SUBJECT.

ZSX,

There is no set protocol for becoming a moderator on the site, really just a keen interest, willingness to help out with the forums (and site) and a nod that you are happy fit in with the way that things are done; in otherwords we welcome and and all comments, ideas etc from the site staff (and give you weighted attention on your ideas), but we don't want a loose cannon who deletes all board posts under their control, flees to Honolulu and PM's all board members a cheap v14gr4 advert

If you are interested in chipping in, let me know what you are interested in doing/focusing on via PM.

p.s. apologies for the slow reply.

I can comply with all of those...

DOH!

Guess takwu's back for good. (Good news for us in any event.)

oo wow!

oh no no no, i'm just dropping in now and then... you know when you worked/studied for 18 hrs straight, you kinda go on the net posting random stuff, heheheheheh

i could use some quick money by spamming v14gr4 adverts tho

takwu, if you were planning on becoming a perma-feature again I would have no issues, but as I'm more like a transient admin at the moment, it doesn't make sense to replace me with a transient mod
