A new forum/subforum suggestion.

Hello everyone.

I don't know how many of you guys/gals who has ever even touched program code. I think there are a few of you who does, me included.
I have been searching the web and could not find any forum that has been good and not required membership to view, such as the helper I mean.

I suggest making a whole new section, or a subforum of some sort dedicated to programming. I know that there already is one for html, but nothing for these:
C, C#, C++, basic, python, Perl, Ruby, Shell.

I don't know if thehelper.net want nor need to expand, but I really think that to add this it will increase the number of daily visitors and members.

And I think with a name such as "thehelper.net" it would be a way to live up to the name to add this aswell.

What do you people think?

When? I must have missed it.

Do you know why it has not been done yet?

And what do you people think?

Maybe we should make a petition or something:D

Typically we do not create subforums unless we have threads already in a forum somewhere to start out with. In other words, some sort of show of demand. Though I like the idea and think we have some programmers here we do not have anyone asking any questions right now and we don't just create empty forums.

It was you who told me to write about it here:eek: Where to write about programming problems now then?
Is it the general discussion forum?
General tech?
gaming?
:confused::confused::confused:

I've always posted my questions about C++ in the General Tech Help forums. The responses there were generally sufficient, so I don't think an entire forum would be needed.

I always avoided posting questions on here, simply because there really wasn't a place for it. So, I'm mostly just posting this as support. I'll ask questions in one of those two threads from now on, though.

Also, a related question, let's say I've already made a program I want to share/get feedback on. Which forum would be better for that, since I technically don't need help?

General tech. And an unedited screenshot from here: http://www.virustotal.com/

I did not get that one:confused: Was it a joke or where you serious:nuts:

Edit: Oh, btw, can't you just change the name of the webmaster forum? Into programmers corner or something. In that way you would not need to create a new forum, and since questions about it already is posted there, then it won't bother anyone that much:)
And oh, there is no need for some fancy tags like the Jass tag, it would be enought with the normal code tag, and no extra work there either:)

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    whatever at least you are free

    If you are new to the site please check out the Recipe and Food Forum https://www.thehelper.net/forums/recipes-and-food.220/
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
