That's why there are a couple of links on the Reply screen that request that people get themselves up to speed on Barbelith etiquette and so on before posting. If you haven't noticed that staring you in the face every time you post, why would you notice anything else?

um, yeah, i know...
i'm thinking the wiki should be the first page you see when you log in for the first time.
you could perhaps even have a 'kingdom of loathing' style literacy test at the bottom of said wiki, the completion of which allows you access to the site proper.
people often dont read unless required to out of laziness.
put something they want behind some text and they will at least see it in full, if not read and understand it.

dunno.
i could be wrong and it could all be too much hassle to fix, but it seems to me we rely on folks making an effort.
its kinda like recycling; folks only do it on any kind of scale when the effort involved becomes almost none.

I've added Games and Gameplay on to the forums list.

Was just wondering if maybe the front page link to the Thoughts For The Future page should be removed, considering that its contents are largely out of date now and are more thoughts on the last stage of work than the next?

Can anybody point me to the Wiki pages that contain the old Webzine content? Can't seem to find them.

Randy, I didn’t know that the webzine stuff was ever on the wiki. Unless I’m thinking of a different webzine. I can't remember seeing any of it in the move, anyway.

There are some old webzine pages that can be found with wayback, though: All the links to articles on this page seem to work, and there are four more articles accessible from here. If that’s any help.

Yeah, we moved the Bomb on there, but not the zine.

Ah, found it. Well, not in the Wiki - I'm sure somebody said that the material from it had been reposted there, but it could well have been one of those terribly dull dreams - but here.

Cheers anyway, Bed!

That'd be it - I'm confusing it with the Bomb stuff.

Does anyone know who ‘Billy Connite’ is? After this glowing recommendation, posted this morning, I’m just curious, is all. It’s not necessarily a Big Deal or anything.
