Ok, here is the thing... I've decided to act like I don't understand anything in turing and make it look like I am advancing slowly so that you'll give me bits for my simple programs, which will take me about 1min to create... I see, that being a noob at programming is better, for the bit status. When I came here I think one of my first posts wes the Battleship game or the Isometric prog, that was a bad choice for me, you end up better if you act Noob-Like, and look like you are progressing, lol this is so weird... Do any of you get this weird effect? |

it was the isometric I believe, no we don't (at lease I and we64) don't think your noobish, we think that your much more advanced than us, with your advanced games that I can't even dream to make at my stage. Anyone who sees your programs won't think your noobish. |

I guess ppl feel bad for newbie programmers so they give em bits. But i also see alot more bits giin to pppl who make good programs so i thinks its better to be good and make awesome progs. |

The problem is related to the relentless spamming of the Turing Help section as well. The 2 bits awarded should be for someone who posts something usefull not simply : Quote: "Wow that's awesome. Can you post the code?"
Although off-topic posts are part of the fun, the recent exponential rise of fluff has started to anoy a number of people. Don't worry X, bits are far from everything, just because people aren't standing in line to give you bits or tell you you're a great programmer does not mean your contributions are not appreciated and respected. |

so you think I should act like a noob (at programming), cause I think I am better off acting like a noob (at programming)... |

Bugz has the most bits on our site, and he's definately one of the best coders on the forum. |

Don't get insecure about what other ppl think of you, I mean when you posted this topic, it pretty much said you not a noob programmer, even if you say you should "act" like one. I mean, come on, most of our class can't understand what your doing cause your so advanced, now if you can only turn that worrying of yours to string manipulation... |

The bits thing does encourage spam, so we might end up getting rid of it one day. |

Yes, I know that I'm good at programming... But I think this forum should have an evaluation of your skills not of your spamming abilities... |

That was the smartest thing I've read coming from the hands of a new joiner. Your rant is refreshing compared to the endless topics and replies coming from "revolutionary web comic team" Also, above is how you quote somebody Dodge. |

you could take grade 11 compsci in grade 10. my school has it set up so that the grade 12 is only given every 2 years cause no one takes it. so i hvae to take grade 11 in grade 11 1st semester, and grade 12 in grade 11 2nd semester. |

I dunno why but they wouldn't let us take gr 11 compsci in gr 10. though I didn't elect to take it anyways because the compsci teacher this year sucks, and the good one will be back next year. also I wanted to have a course with less homework in it in GR 11 instead of GR10.. |

we have grade 11 and 12 compsci, grade 11 being turing and grade 12 being java. We also haveother courses that show u how to use a wordprocesser, I took one of those courses becuase I knew I could blow thru it , being that i took it in grade 9, Its so boring, she asked us what the start button was, KJGVASJFAS I was going to snap at the stupidity of the course. |
