Hi

Is it alright if I go through this forum and collect info on the posts? Im just talking about a program that opens a page source code, reads it and then stores parts of it on my computer. I actually did that before without asking when I fetched the time stamps and then later on I noticed that it caused a lot of anon users to appear. The code is not threaded and its actually accessing the data on the page which means I wont be spamming the webpage with huge requests or anything so its completely harmless. You could say its a custom made search engine. Kind of. Still I would like your permission.

I wont be doing anything today since I need to work on uni related stuff.

 Once HelloTech said what he was doing I understood how you got your data. I didn't make the connection with the Anon though. That makes sense now.

So it was some computer hocus pocus.

I liked the old forum days better, when there wasn't his sort of power shift. I don't think it's fair tbh. I'm just sitting here being analized, how many times I fucking swear, when and where I said fuckwhat (yeah, fuckwhat), how many times I misspell shit. I don't like it.

What's wrong with having data about yourself? It doesn't change anything really, it's just interesting.

So what if you happen to curse a lot at Spatial? That guy pisses a lot of people off.

Im sorry you feel that way. Its not really unfair though since anyone can learn python enough to do the same things in about an hour or so if they wanted. analysing the data and making comparisons is the harder part anyway.

It is a good power shift.

Power should be in the hands of techheads anyway.
