Off

**Bobskunk** · Today 10:41 PM

I am going to flatten my fucking face against a wall, seeing this shit.

Paying for another piece of KB software when free ones exist is one thing, but YOU HAVE SERVERS IN YOUR RACK THAT AREN'T EVEN DOING ANYTHING. WHY WOULD YOU PAY FOR THIS AS A HOSTED SERVICE!?

EDIT: PLEASE PARDON MY HYSTERICS BUT HOW FUCKING STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO THINK THIS MAKES ANY SENSE WHATSOEVER

At least this one seems to be coded by somewhat competent people.

Still not worth money, though, when you can use things like MediaWiki to make a much nicer, much more user friendly help center for free.

Dragoneer: I will set up a MediaWiki Knowledgebase for you. Set up an install and send me the passwords and I will make you a nice knowledgebase that doesn't cost anything a month. You have nothing to lose.

He has his false pride. I'm sure he wouldn't accept help from someone as "miserable" as you. :V

Anybody who knows even a tiny bit about web development could do it... but I doubt Dragoneer would trust you, or anyone else that could make a half-decent job of it, with that.

<KesSlugirl> oh god, dragoneer responded by saying: @Sanddancer FA isn't even pulling in enough money to cover bandwidth. This is my own cash.

So, uh

he's not even able to cover bandwidth

so he goes

further into debt

i just

i

i just can't

you're a fucking retard and should kill yourself, dragoneer

(like the only reason i could think of for doing this is to piss off his detractors

i can think of no other motive for this, what the fuck)

Wait huh?...
*reads*
Ugh at this point I'm no longer surprised by any of this.

**Zaraphayx** · Today 11:33 PM

It's official, Dragoneer is trollin'.

All I need is the username and password for the mediawiki install. It could be set up in a virtual machine on their "hosting" box just like the current wiki is so I can't even think of touching anything else. And once it's set up I'd happily relinquish access back to Dragoneer. I couldn't do anything worse than anyone else could do once the FA hosting service comes online.

Plus, you can have unlimited users and even allow the community to write articles! Wow! So web 2.0 and all that stuff!

Dragoneer Problem Solving:
* Ignore it until enough people clamor for an explanation
* Accuse all critics of being "evil trolls"
* Piss away money on two broken useless pieces of shit excuses for software (alternately: ignore the state of the current software and piss away money on a new UI)
* Get asspats from his echo chamber telling him how great he is for going into debt to keep FA "running"
