+Andrew Davie Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I plan to delete threads and messages in this forum which I consider not relevant to the 'Programming for Newbies' topic. If there are any posts you wish to keep, please grab them soon. Cheers A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Good idea...it's getting pretty messy with both more advanced topics as well as things that don't pertain to "programming basics" at all Whoops...I guess I just added one for you to delete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I don't think deleting threads is good at all. IMO it is against the whole public forum idea. But I agree that some threads don't belong into this forum, so if you want to get rid of those threads, you should move them to other forums where they fit in better.

Happy_Dude Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 you should move them to other forums where they fit in better. *cough*programing forum*cough* I think this is a great idea. Keeping the newbie forum for the newbies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I don't think deleting threads is good at all. IMO it is against the whole public forum idea. I agree. Unless it is vulgor language or complete spam, I think it should stay in some section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 This place could use a little cleaning. But yeah, don't axe them, just move the non-beginner stuff over to the regular programming forum and anything else to General Chat or something. I came in a month ago, trying to look at some of the lessons and had a hard time tracking them all down. I don't suppose each lesson could remain sticky at the top in the order they are numbered, for convenience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't suppose each lesson could remain sticky at the top in the order they are numbered, for convenience? There is a table of contents at the top of the forum http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=33233 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisrael Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Oh, they made my Sorted Table of Contents sticky along with Atari Programming Workshop Chapter links? That's silly, we don't need two of 'em! I'm more than happy to make flavoredthunder's the One, as long as he keeps it up to date, though I'd suggest he change the title to "Table of Contents" or something similar, because I think that's more clear to someone loading the page for the first time, that's its the *internal* chapter links, not links to outside.

flavoredthunder Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hey Andrew, Wow, that is very cool. I am doing research on the power glove for a book that I am writing. I'd be very interested in interviewing you about it. Later, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
