Verisign. You know the ones – the useless cretins behind Network Solutions who allow less honest individuals to waltz away with the domain names of decent people.
Yep – that’s Verisign.
Granted, the above attempt at a Google Bomb doesn’t seem to be working in the slightest, but it cant to any harm to keep linking to the article showing how crap Verisign are.
Sitepoint forums are a cool developers hang out. Even if you’re not stuck with something, there’s a chance you can lend a hand to someone else and hope that the good karma comes back to you when you’re stuck. So I’m finding it increasingly perplexing that I seem to have some sort of karma bypass installed around my topics when I do need help.
I’ve posted questions on nested while loops, as well as a Javascript cookie query, not to mention a few others. Yet somehow, each time I ask for help, I’m either not understood… or nobody is willing to cough up the answer.
I find it hard to believe that I’m asking the kind of questions that hundreds of online gurus are completely foxed by. So maybe it’s the way I’m asking? Am I being too polite? Am I not explaining myself properly?
Whatever it is, I wish I knew.
On the other hand, I’m building up so much good karma that someone is due to post the winning Lotto numbers to me instead of answering my coding question, which would instantly trivialise the problem anyway! ;o)
The captivating read of the $95,000 Adventure had me almost as gripped as the story of Bob Kolody vs Coca Cola about a year ago. The Coca-Karma case has just been updated although still shows no signs of reaching a conclusion in the near future. I guess that’s the US legal system for you.
Thanks to Jeremy for the link to the $95,000 Adventure story – I don’t know where he finds the time to come up with all these great links. :o)
