Very cool admin!
Dreggie had told me but now I know from personal experience.
He doesn't bite even though I am excessively lazy! | |

I do my best to not talk to anyone if I've had far too little sleep. I know that I'd end up saying something stupid | |

Aye, Ross doesn't get cranky; he just breaks things on the server. | |

Anyone got any other questions? | |

It's not actually a fully dedicated server yet, but the specs of it:

pmwww | Re: Ask The Staff (24th Dec 08 at 9:41pm UTC) | | Here's one or two: Before you were made staff, did you have aspirations of becoming a staff member? Did you think "oooh, it would be great to join the staff team" or was it completely out of the blue?More specifically for Ross, but any of you lot  can answer it: Is the forum service at the stage you envisaged when the service began? Has it grown to a stage you didn't think possible or is it smaller than you had hoped for?
1. Well, when I first joined I just posted for the sake of getting the board some activity; I thought it would be cool to be an active member with a service from the very beginning. I started coding for VF a lot, simply because the way the service is setup is so much easier to work with than what I'd been used to. I did a lot of code support, too; simply because there just weren't (and unfortunately still aren't) many coders around.
I had a feeling that I might become staff, but it wasn't really something I was aiming for; I was just tired of the attitudes of people at other providers, and wanted to be a part of something new.
2. When I first joined, there wasn't much here in terms of activity or members. However, I looked through the features and whatnot, and immediately knew that this would be a great service; provided Ross could get it off the ground. This place has had solid growth from the beginning, and is for sure considered a rival to other providers.
The only thing that I had thought would be bigger by now was the amount of coders; but it's understandable, since VF has so many awesome features built-in that there's really no need for hundreds of coders. | |

There's Dreggie and I, Ross of course, and I've seen that Dwight and a few others have taken to learning Javascript. | |
