Okay, we'll have a little vote...Which one's worse: Posts like these that are supposed to trick us into doing an obscene amount of work for nothing, or ones where homework assignments are copied and pasted. I'm voting for posts like these...They insult my intelligence. Homework posters just insult their own. I'm not stupid enough to do an entire website (for something that I've never heard of before that seems to be in german) in hopes of saving a few bucks a month getting free website (even if it does have CDI/BIN:-) -SN P.S. I've got a bright shiny nickel for anybody who wants to do my job for me as well!

I dislike the homework assignments myself. It angers me to think about all the time I have spent learning how to program and have some lamer ask me to do his/her homework for them. The posts like these I just ignore, since every manager wants WAY TOO MUCH for WAY TOO LITTLE and wants it yesterday. But to think that some kid is in a programming class, probably going to graduate with a degree but can't figure out how to iterate through an array, or how to create programs from all the information given in the assignment... That's why MOST of the programmers I have met in person (and many I have interviewed for jobs) don't know the FIRST thing about how to program...they just want it handed to them and click click click...look a program. CRACK A F**KING BOOK, YOU LAMERS!!! Oh, and if that's too hard, how about hitting F1 (it works in MOST programming IDEs to give you...um, let's see how to put this: HELP & EXAMPLES) Phew...Rant is OVER. Chi Happens

lol Chi. That was a very healthy rant...I didn't know you had it in you! :-) The vote is tied 1-1...I think I may be at a slight disadvantage because of all the homework bashing that has gone on lately, and "do my homework" posts are so much more common, but I'm sticking firm. -SN

SN, Oh I've got a LOT of crap in me :) that rant didn't ever SCRATCH the surface. BTW, I do think that the "contest" angle is fairly humorous. COME ON, LET'S ALL COMPETE!!! Oh, and what do I tell my customer's when I don't deliver their project on time? Well, you see...I was really trying to learn how to use CDI/BIN...must be some NEW microsoft thing) BTW, what would CDI stand for? Common Dumbass Interface? Later, Chi Happens

I was wondering why they were bothering to design a new website when they appeared to have only two members, deaggo and meomyo. And, note that they didn't specify how long you'd get the free account. Was that symbol (that my keyboard can't make) for a Euro?? Sorry snee, but I'd have to vote for homeworkers!
