I'm aware of how to detect sarcasm, thank you. I don't think that takes away from my point.

I know you know its sarcasm. What I'm saying is, you not taking away the point is the equivalent of explaining the joke, which makes the joke lame.

I made a quip about how if Scarecrow---a user who doesn't frequent here---were here, he'd just say to google everything.

Then he comes in out of the blue and confirms exactly what I said. That's comedy. And of course, wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Nobody needed to point out that it didn't need to be taken seriously.

Of course not. I don't really know too much in detail since I wasn't put in charge of that, Devour should know more about it than I do.

Devour's been in charge even before the forum layout changed. You're saying it like he's been cooking something up all this time. Really doubt that.

No I actually have no idea what's been going on in the Tutorial section since I wasn't put in charge of it and as a result didn't care to follow up. I just know whatever is being worked on is still in the process based on what has been posted in the batcave so far.

Hey we trust the cave. No probz

Anyways, whats the news on Jeff's new site? Still ongoing?

Every so often I'll see a situation like this and it renews my respect for the art of effectively expressing sarcasm and some types of jokes through text on the internet. You'll never win 'em all.

Why is the Official Tutorials section empty? I literally made a tutorial on how to get your tutorial accepted to the Official Tutorials section. Even if none of my others were deemed worthy, I'd have thought that one...

We've had some shakeups internally but at this point I am determined to complete my work. A little while ago a decision was made to establish the right framework for all of my future web projects including StickPage so that they could be more efficiently developed and maintained. I am opinionated on front-end technology and design, which has lead me through a lot of work to accomplish what I want to do because there are no existing frameworks that check the boxes I want. So, the site's still in active development. We have a plan in motion right now, and the details of the new site are established and ready to be implemented in the custom framework when it's done enough.

A lot of the changes that have happened recently are part of our long term plan for the site, and offer some useful insight for future steps we take towards our goal. The tutorial's section was reorganized in preparation for the new site's tutorial system. Official tutorials will need to be compatible with StickPage values and will undergo extreme vetting in order to get in, so we'll be sure that anything labelled "official" is relevant and well made. That takes time and resources and hasn't come up on the todo list yet. Also to be clear I have not deleted any posts, they are still there just hidden. I think it updates your post count when that happens, so if they are revealed again your post count would go up.

Lol no I emptied the Official Tutorials section because fuck you guys :rolleyes:

Also hello Scarecrow and Zed my love. I waa equally crushed when the general section no longer added to post counts....

Oh, General no longer counts? Yeah, that would probably knock fifteen thousand or so off...

If I'm being honest with myself, that's probably for the best. The standards for an "Official Tutorial" used to be unclear and pretty lax.



In other news, after years of telling myself I'd do it, I made a Shiny Penny competition round 2! http://forums.stickpage.com/showthread.php?100129-The-Shiny-Penny-Competition-Round-2&p=1458474#post1458474 Including the first thing I've animated in forever. It feels pretty good :)

I don't even know how long it's been since i last animated, but i have a silly idea so I'll take you up on your offer of madness.

As usual Jeff, you are on top of the situation. We'll be here silently cheering for you

Ps: Zed on a scale of one to ten, how ironic is it that I'm wearing the colors of the SPP militia that you formed way back when?

Haha, that brings back some memories.
