Off topic : for Admins "If you want to be JCP" thread

Could someone please delete the thread mentioned in the subject line as it is the usual type of thread that involves folk posting their e-mail addresses and it would appear to be set up for gullible folk. On another note maybe the software that runs this forum could be changed so that people actually have to look through the rest of the messages before they can hit the reply button i.e. look at the last messages posted! Rant over thanks for listening.

Excellent reply SeanEllis Thank you.
Yes after I had the ideas, wrote a survey and created the Skype Room group, I discovered the Forum thread about Skype Ideas and had the same thought. they are already doing this. So, I guess the benefit of mine is to raise awareness of this Skype Idea Community Board.
In my Skype Room guidelines, there is a link to the Survey which has links to all the Skype Ideas Boards for all the Skype clients, (Win7,8 iOS, Mac)... well Mac didnt have one, but I linked to the Mac blog & community.
I completely agree and love the explanation of the process to elevate the most Kudo'd (voted for/ popular) idea requests for implimentation. Very Impressive. People don't relaize that Skype/MS is listening... as you said ... to the clear focused voice of the most voted for and commented on Ideas for Skype changes. So Pleae dont dilute the votes for the same request! I will repeat the good info I found and link to it again....
You can submit your improvement ideas to Skype for Windows desktop quickly and easily here. Learn how
Idea submission tips:
Only one idea per submission
Pick a descriptive title
Very encouraging, I say! My Skype Groups are all invited to read this, search for your ideas first, submit yours only if someone else has not yet. Than vote for the ones you want with the Kudo button below. Do leave comments on teh ideass you want Skype to make happen.
Thanks everyone!
Julie
PS Status of Your Idea
This is what shows me that Skype/MS is listening (from the last link above, in case you want to read the whole thing):
What do the votes/kudos mean?
Just as you can give kudos in the community boards and blogs, you can vote for ideas you like on the Idea Board. Ideas with high vote totals are more likely to be recognized and accepted by the teams at Skype who develop our products and services. You can also leave comments on ideas, but remember to be kind! (my underline)
What do the different idea statuses mean?
We strive to review submitted ideas on a biweekly/monthly cycle. Each idea will go through a life cycle that will be assigned statuses at each milestone. The statuses are explained here:
Status of Your Idea:
New Idea - Sparkly new idea, submitted by you (my tweak - or someone else), and ready to be vetted by the community.
Comments Requested - Items set as Comments Requested will be open to the community for feedback and votes.
Under consideration- Idea has been forwarded to appropriate business team who is determining feasibility.
More information needed- More information is needed before our Product Management team can take this forward, please review the comments left by the team.
Duplicate - Ideas in this status have already been submitted in some form or another. We will link these items over to the other idea so you can review the status or track the progress there.
Already exists - This is available in the product.
Future possibility - Idea is a good one but not something we can include in a near-term product or software release.
Accepted - Idea has been accepted and has been taken forward for implementation, check back soon for updates.
Not right now - We like the idea but just not for right now, we will revisit it in the future.
Implemented - You asked for it, we did it!

My elements 8 is paid for - why do you want me to relicense it

MY ELEMENTS 8 IS PAID FOR, HAS BEEN PAID FOR, FOR YEARS - NOW YOU WANT MORE MONEY TO RELICENSE WHAT I ALREADY OWN - THIS IS ATTEMPTED FRAUD.
WHY AM I GETTING THIS MESSAGE TO RELICENSE, OR RESTART, RESTART, RESTART, RESTART - WHAT CRAP IS THIS?

Off-topic: How to add more Duke Stars to a thread?

Hi all,
I want to add more Duke stars to my thread. Let's say I've assigned 9 duke stars and I've distributed all of them, then I decided I want to add 1 more to it. How do I do that?
Thanks!
I'ts trivial, I know ~ but giving Duke stars is fun!! :D

DO NOT GO FOR VERIZON IF YOU WANT BB Z10

With the point of view I pay a lot for my service I wish to have the support I needed for my BB Z10 but do I get it? No !
And I believe when I said this for the Z10 community.. We need 10.1 update to address these glitches :
- Charger is not recognize by the phone with "ACK" blue color on it at the end of the notification.
- Messages read but still showed as unread in the hub
- Twitter keep loading up even after you delete it
- Constant Reboot by the device or when the best scenario happen, reboot randomly
Question : Why have not the 10.1 update been pushed yet? Let me guess the answer by the customer service or tech support : " It still on the development or testing" or " We do not have time period when the update will be pushed " . Ok but you guys been testing around the GS 4 and probably.. probably as the rumor I heard that you guys behind the schedule/timeline for the phone launch.. Is it because "Green Robot" and "Grey Fruit" more profitable to you guys then you guys decided to abandon other customer that did not support those 2 platform??
I did not regret I'm buying this device, But I do regret I have this device with your service.

meh if the update is confirmed by the BlackBerry and other user on other Carrier then how come it would be bad? Unless they meddle with the log and the system file in it
I said to call because there is no way to write them of your displeasure since email contact is gone.
You could use the postal service but again who do you send to? Where do you send to?
Verizon takes its own good time with updates. Why? Because they are the biggest cell provider and can get away with delays due to the shear number of customers. The other cell companies are not as huge as Verizon and besides like was said above there may not be that many people that bought a Blackberry Z10 could be a load of reasons. unless you call and complain how would anyone know?

Do a search in this forum about forgot passcode or phone is disabled because of forgotten passcode.
See how many threads there are for that, now imagine if what you want happens, how many threads do you think we will have about not remember the passcode.
Bad idea.

Do you want to live in a world where people are not allowed opinions?

Do you remember when Americans were free to have an opinion, and we would accept those with different opinions than our own? I'm in my mid-20s, but I remember that time. It seems to be gone now.
You have forced your CEO to "resign" from his position because of a witch hunt that was launched against him because of a donation he made 6 years ago. Really?
Is this really the kind of world you want to live in? Where everyone needs to think exactly the same, and anyone on the other side of the fence is labeled a bigot and gets fired from their job? In this case, Brendan Eich didn't even do anything or say anything stupid. He was just hired onto a position and the militant left jumped on it because of a donation he made in 2008. A time, I'm sure you realize, when people were much less accepting of the gay lifestyle than they are today. The big lunges that they have made come in the past couple years with people like George Takei winning over their acceptance.
My views on gay marriage and other related issues are not the problem here, and therefore I will not get into them. The problem is that a man who reached the top of your company was kicked off because of an opinion he held 6 years ago when it was not even controversial. If he were making the contributions today instead it would hold more merit, but it still should not dictate his job performance. As long as he's not going around holding a "God hates fags" sign, his political views do not have anything to do with his job performance and it does not affect your company.
However, that takes us into the real underlying problem here: you were attacked by these groups like GLAAD who make you fear for your own business because of your association with this man, and you gave in. You aren't the first company to do it, and you surely won't be the last. Yet, are you satisfied in doing this? By giving in to a group of people who attacked you because of who you hired, you have bowed to a bully. You were bullied into this decision and now you are reeling in hoping it doesn't hurt you too bad. Will the people who jumped on you suddenly become customers again? Will this decision alienate other customers?
America became the greatest country in the world because it was built by people who believed in themselves. I won't even get into anything political here. It was just about hard work, believing you can achieve things, and not letting anyone tell you otherwise. It was the belief that we could build a country where anyone could become anything if they put their mind to it and they didn't let anyone bully them into thinking otherwise. It was that determination that led us to invent the lightbulb, the automobile, and the airplane. It was that kind of ingenuity that allowed us to take charge of the internet and for companies like Mozilla to innovate the web as much as it has in 10 short years.
Tell me, how do you think any of that will be able to happen if everyone is watching their backs? How will we make more progress if people are afraid to say an opinion just in case they might be bullied because of it and lose their jobs?

(off topic) BEWARE OF CNET DOWNLOADS!!!!

I know that this is slighly off-topic for this forum, but I wanted to spread the word about CNET downloads (download.com). Several months ago, CNET was slapped on the wrist for intentionally adding spyware into the programs on their download website.
Well, they stopped for a while and they're at it again. I wrote to them saying that I had trusted CNET for years because of their policy against spyware and mailicious code. A few weeks ago, I needed to download a program to check wifi channels on my wireless network, and ended up having to perform a full virus/spyware scan aftrer downloading TWO different programs from CNET's download site. After installing each program, I ended up having my homepage hijacked and dozens of popups appearing offering to fix my computer!
I thought that maybe it was just the first program (slipped by heir radar), but the SECOND one had the same problem. I then went to the publisher's website and found his blog complaining that his program was free of malicious code and that it was inserted by CNET/Download.com AFTER he had uploaded it to the web.
His recommendation is that, if you can't go directly to the publisher's site for a download, File-Hippo is still a fairly clean site.
Please pass this info on to friends and colleagues.

All people have photographic memories - some are just missing the film!

Sophiesdad, welcome to the forum.
I know that you are correct. I have found this to be very true. The only way that I have found to get around this situation is use the "Custom" option to do the install. This allows me to decline all of the garbage that they want to add to my computer. It has worked so far.
This is not the only website that does this, however. I have found it to be true on Softpedia, also. It was my most trusted until lately.

Question a lil off topic

i have a question that may be a lil off topic from java but i want to put a counter on my web page
i need to know were my perl executable file is and i cant find it it says to type in whereis perl from the unix shell but the server is running iis2 on nt4 and i havent a clue of how to get to the unix shell if thier even is one if anyone knows how tell me or if their is a way to do this in java tell me
and if no one knows its ok cause this is the java forum hehe but i figure someone on heres probably delt with this before
thanks in advance

If it is on an NT box, you probably don't need the #! line you would need in UNIX as there is probably a file association for .pl or .cgi for the Perl executeable.

Is there a way to identify a thread you want to return to without tagging?

Is there a way to identify a thread you want to return to without tagging?
I will try to explain what I mean.
Let say someone asks a question and you are curious at what people may suggest as solutions. The interest could range from simple curiosity to "oh, I don't know how to do that, but would like to learn", or whatever reason that would cause someone to revisit a thread.
But the interest is weak enough that you do not want to subscribe to the discussion. And the topic is not something you want to tag because it is an unusual thread that is unlikely going to re-occur, and you are not sure if you will or will not revisit after a solution is posted or the discussion goes a certain way.
Another example is if the question is interesting, you do not want to mark it because there is no answer / solution yet and you are curious if anyone would ever provide a solution, so you do not want to tag it and a subscription would be useless if no one replies.
OR
Maybe it is a hot topic of the day / week and that's it.. You would not revisit at a later date.
But for the moment, you want to easily find it during the day or have a reminder that you want to revisit the thread ether in the near future or later when someone has provided an answer.
Is there an easy way to mark threads that you want to re-visit? Like a "todo" list, but rather a "to re-visit" list...
R
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Delicious is a website wher you can store URL for later use/retrieval. For every link you add you can add some tags, a description, and you can share them with others.
I'm not using it for the use you have in mind, but it would be an idea. I have set up a special Mouse Gesture in Firefox that creates a delicious entry for the current page.
I use delicious heavily when I am looking on the internet for a solution to a specific problem, what happens during such a search is that you see 20-30 pages that look promising but only 3 are actually on topic. Sometimes it turns out one of the 'not so good pages' are actually googd pages, but 3 days later you don't know exactly the search term you used, or you are on another PC and it's hard to trace back your steps on the WWW. So by using Delicious I can easily create a list of pages on a particular topic.

Off Topic/cross-post

Off Topic - Cross Post:
Does anybody here enjoy reading flamefull threads as much as I do? Like the ones where someone asks a stupid
question and get bombarded with rude, snappy, witty comments. I love to read them, even when there directed at me. I wish there was a thread that acted like a directory of these flaming threads so that I could directly read them all in sequence.
Thank you very much for endless humor and entertainment.
Keep up the good work guys and girls...

Sorry this is way off topic...NYC Petition, please have a look

I know this is WAY off topic for this forum, but this is the only forum I follow and contribute to. And since we will ALL be affected by this at some point or another if we visit NYC I think it is worth all of our attention.
Here is the text from the email I got from the APA...(link at bottom)
The Mayor's office in New York City is seeking to instate a new rule that would require permits and proof of insurance for any group of 2 or more persons using a camera in a public area. The regulations would require that anyone using a tripod or shooting in one location for more than 30 minutes (including set-up and break down time) must obtain permits and show proof of insurance of at least 1 million dollars per occurrence. Read more about the new rules here: http://www.nyc.gov/html/film/html/news/080107_proposed_permit_rules.shtml
We all need to act now to fight these proposed regulations which will place absurd restrictions on the freedom to photograph in New York City's public spaces.
This affects not only professional photographers but the First Amendment rights of anyone with a camera to spontaneously document what happens on the streets of this city.
Due to pressure from advocacy groups, the Mayor's Office has agreed to extend the period that it will allow public commentary until August 3rd.
Picture New York has initiated an online petition opposing the new rules, which over 12,000 indidivuals have signed so far. The petition is closing on August 3rd. Please take a moment to sign if you have not already done so.
Here is the link to sign the petition:

you have to be careful with your variables:
the declared variables inside the actionlistener(s) are not these in your main class!!
what you might do:
a) let your main-class implement ActionListener
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS implements ActionListener {
   public static void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
}b) create your own event handler
public class MainClass extends PARENTCLASS {
   public MainClass() {
      insert.addActionListener(new YourActionListener(this));
public class YourActionListener extends ActionListener {
   private MainClass main;
   public YourActionListener(MainClass parent) {
      main = parent;
   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
      main.year = "abc";
      main.id = "id";
      // or implement setXXX methods -> main.setYear("abc"); main.setId("id"); ...
}hope it helps...

An "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SEND" function must be added to iphone

why is it that there is no "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SEND" function as far as text message? The funtion is really needed and could be very useful when it comes to checking for gramatical errors (& more importantly) making sure the text is going to the right person

Ok captain obvious....u make a valid point...however at times we all makes mistakes when were in the moment and just text and send....the function wouldn't have to be a "definate" I feel just having the option to turn on or off a "are u sure you want to send" feature could be useful to some people...
