okay, will fission make TGB searchable?

Not sure he can unless he has access to some permission that, I guess, only a few admins have.

There are no downsides to adding on Fission.
Like, let's be real lol.

no
it's not like something will break if you try to fix shoddy coding

If "fix" = "help rewrite everything because that's the only way to fix it", then sure.

yes, that was part of the idea because i'm more than aware that this is what needs to be done at this point

Also if "hire" means not get payed at all, then also sure.

i'm also aware

Also, who's Fission.

lol

wasn't there like just an application period for dev team people?

with all due respect, it was a misguided effort. it wasn't targeted correctly. i can expound upon this if i need to.

choof is right -- this is a fallacy in programming. how do you think high profile websites evolve? they don't just twiddle their thumbs waiting for something to happen.

okay, will fission make TGB searchable?

immediately? no. it is something that would easily happen in the long term though just as a result of an entire revamp of the front end.

i appreciate that this thread was created, but having actually pondered it i only need a few things that don't require a lot of access right now. mostly placeholder entries to get a better understand of the layout of FFR's database so that i can actually write code against it.

fission is a good and cool user and has loads of ideas to make ffr a really fun site looking forward and has even agreed to velocity's terms to be on the ffr dev team. i really hope velocity puts him on the ffr dev team!

Now if only FFR would let me make gfx for them.

Gonna step up and say it: those of you who don't want this to happen really should justify your reasons rather than hiding.

fission is a plebian with really bad taste in music and chinese restaurants and i feel like that does not reflect the community in a positive light

Re: petition: hire ffr user "Fission" as a site dev to fix/coherent the site code

if in the future there's a staff thread about fixing code can someone make it so that some Korn song plays whenever Fission posts saying everything's wrong

or Limp Bizkit either or

really bad taste in chinese restaurants

Are they at least dirt cheap Chinese restaurants?
