I think that somewhere on the mainpage there should at least be a link to a memorial page to Winace. He started all of this and should be remembered as our founder.
Even though Yahweh seems to have gotten sick of us and dumped us without any notice she did keep the site going for two years after Winace passed. She should be mentioned too. (even if just briefly)
Winace deserves much more than an occasional mention here from those that remember him, this was his idea...
(For those of you saying to yourself "who the hell is Winace?" you are why I want a memorial here. So you wouldn't be asking that.)

I tentatively second this, with reservations based primarily on the fact that it would mean even MORE work for Distind.

Absolutely. These are the people who spent a lot of time and effort into fighting bigotry and injustice, revealing the hypocrisy of religion and the crimes of those who do unspeakable evils under the guise of God. They deserve a lot of respect.

Not saying it has to happen today or even in the next month...but eventually I do think we owe Winace some recognition.

I agree entirely, I've just been annoying yawheh to huck me an archive with the files rather than taking a chunk of time to crawl across every page on the old fstdt archives, and snag all the images, and then have to restructure the entire thing. But I do. |

I believe that Yahweh complained once, that she was constantly battling DoS attacks. So I understand why she got sick of it, I just don't understand why she didn't hand it off lock, stock and barrel.
As for WinAce, well he was before my time, but Kudos for getting this going.

As for WinAce, well he was before my time, but Kudos for getting this going. That's mostly a matter of getting a better host, which I do believe I did. Blocking the attacks isn't terribly difficult unless you have a sophisticated attacker, which I doubt fundies has had. The guys I signed up with have a great record for service, so I'll be pinging them immediately apon noticing any problems and see how that works. If they want to keep me paying a lot more than I should for hosting since apparently my revisions to the site achieved exactly what I hoped, then they'll do what I ask. |
