A comment on the problem "A Hubdub representative (super user Mork) not being a good role model for Hubdub?" in Hubdub:

Do you realize it is only because of a variance in currency exchange rate, from creation to settlement that makes this question settle as 'no'? I agree it should have been or should become void. – mork, on June 04, 2008 20:18

Suggesting that I made comment regarding sexual orientation is just more evidence to me that it is entirely in your character to distort the facts. – mork, on June 04, 2008 19:57

This is what a 'Drama Queen' is:http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=drama%20queen&r=f

Sorry epicur. I didn't realize you were sensitive about your sexual orientation.
Thats not what I meant.

I have an idea...
One way to alleviate the gap of the wealthy and the poor would be to have a bank that the poor could borrow from and have the bank financed by the wealthy.

An incentive to invest in the bank could be a 'badge' or 'rank' associated with the user.

The qualification of a loan should not be an easy matter. One way to qualify for a loan could be the condition of creating a question. The amount of the loan qualification could be directly proportional to the popularity of the question. A waiting period of one or two days could determine what the value of the approved loan would be.

The badge or rank should be subtle. As new users become more familiar with the site they will recognize the elite.

I think the leaders in wealth not only reflect wise market decisions but also the loyalty of the hubdub pioneers. (something worthy of a badge?)

I am a little disturbed by the cheeziness of my idea but I think the degree of the existing wealth amongst us may discourage new users.

If you’re a Firefox user then you can try Update Scanner. It’s an extension that lets you monitor webpages for changes. You have an option to choose how often the website should be checked for changes, and whether it should ignore the minor ones, such as the changes to numbers.

I like it to preview what the news results will be and to have a quick overview of it before I release it. – mork, on April 27, 2008 05:33

rohan's reply to "NEW and IMPROVED" was just promoted to the most useful! mork and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

I'd like: (more important ones in bold)
->A way to set reminders sent by email at a specific time for a particular question

->A way to mark a question for future reference.

->Information on pages of new shouts (like the challenges thing)

->More, newer and better implementation of categories(i mean like "most active" and "newest")

->An automated question creator which allows repetition of a question with a few minor changes like suspend dates. (eg Team A vs Team B- Who will win on dd/mm: enter A,B,dd,mm OR <index name="true"> - will it close up on dd/mm:Enter index name and dd,mm)</index>
