Today the TI-z80 community says goodbye to another great programming group known as z80 Revelation. The closing was mostly due to the fact that the webmaster doesn't have enough time anymore to work on it as well as the recent inactivity from the staff members (including me). It's sad to see them go because they had cool projects in the works.

The forums are still avaliable though so I just updated the website link instead of deleting it.

I actually feel sadness to see this community slowly die. I wonder if new people will come to take their place, or if today's generation of 'calc noobs' don't care for limited platforms anymore, and don't bother to explore them and program for them

Yes, it is sad to watch this once great community be ripped apart by 1) People retiring and no one to take their places and 2) People who have to degrade others, to make themselves feel superior.

That is why I hope to get as much info in my tutorials section of my, so for as long as TI-Freakware stays on the web, people will be able to learn how to program like the pros.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #8 on:** July 13, 2005, 11:58:00 am »

I think 400 of them are links and programs, but not all from mine, also from gimpynerd and solitaire710

As long as you stay under 50% of the forum you seem fine. All the forums around have at least 40% admin posting...

I think mine has 45 ish... >D

<--- I love that face

there are a few exceptions tho: calcgames, maxcoderz, uti, z80 revelation and revsoft where admins have like 10% or under posts

I was kinda curious as to what the admin posting ratio was on CG. Well, out of 25841 total posts, present and past administrators account for 11506 posts. That's 44%, however, the top poster, Z (an administrator) had 3640 posts (14% of total).

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #12 on:** July 13, 2005, 01:38:00 pm »

I think I saw top 10 poster list once at CG, but it was a while ago and I dont remember, I know CalculatorFreakCG was in it IIRC. I think I have something like 6-70 posts

yeah, sometimes i wish i could see the CG lists... but then again, im sure they keep them hidden for a reason...

allynfolksjr · « **Reply #14 on:** July 14, 2005, 06:50:00 am »

Well, partially because we don't like people trying and inflate their post count, and partially because we're too lazy to make a script to show the top twenty or so.
