h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Also, a thing that has the potentiat to bring a lot of prople is to put a referance after your nick name, like I have in mine about the programmers' corner



Dancer

Do I change that in Preferences?
I was hoping if i was interesting enough in conversatons, curious people would click on my name

Well, yes and true.

Yes: It is in the preferances, and youre limited to 255 letters in your nickname

True: people do visit your page after talking to you in conversation. It takes some more then others to actually do that (I have a quick finger on usernames, other do it less), but also advertisement is good.

Actually, it means that people who go to the moomin valley will later go and visit your own personal space afterward


Dancer

... and the Home for Obsolete Computer Games... =)
I shall go try that in a bit.

I can see you don't want to mess with your nick, Some don't but I recommend that when you feel the first stage of the moomin valley is done (I think it already is) it is a good idea to advertise it.

I think I'll do it too, so we have double barrel advertisement.


Dancer

..oops I haven't been on for awhile as they keep making me work at work (pah!) so i don't have time to fiddle!

I'll put you down as a researcher on moomin valley - does that mean you can make changes?

I ANDROKTONE
Visit Moomin Valley!

Nope there's no way to do that


Dancer

Oh. So its impossible to share ownership with anyone?

Nope, it creates a lot of problems, like:

You press the edit, then Hatifnat presses edit, then you post then he posts, so whatever changes you made, will be erased


Dancer

O I see. I guess the only way to share ownership would be to do what titania did with her noticeboard and create a separate researcher ID which we both knew the password to...

That's a possibilit. The Post is run that way


Dancer

I was thinking of contributing.. what sort of things are the Post interested in?

The 2 best ways to find out are:

1. reading it and some past editions.

2. Asking Shazz (Link to her space is in the post office)


Dancer

Aww, you put moomin valley in your nickname! Have you started a pub yet?

...are you not still in mourning? Was it for afghanistan? I don't like what we're doing over there. It seems vindictive. Those poor people. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a lot more terrorist activity in britain now. We've already had antrax scares. Ugh. The whole things horrid.

Are we allowed to talk about this on H2G2? Will the thread get edited out? If you want to chat in a less censored way theres a mail link on my page.

Hi Again

I saw your postings at the NOTICEBOARD, and also the Fantastic makeover of the moomin valley

I'm sorry for taking time with the pub, but Mourning is over and all of RL is rushing back to be attended.

Will work on it soon.




Dancer

Hi there, just wanted to tell you that a researcher who wants to join the Moomin Valley is waiting for you on this thread: http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F77632?thread=144300 O:-) <>< Dancer
