Reverse Effect!?!

[TheXploder]

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.

dont spam with random 2 line programs (one being a comment ) for bits... else lots of people will be angry

[santabruzer]

.... so don't do this :

code:

% This program outputs a 5 put 5

[Mazer]

Holy shit! Well done, santabruzer!
+allmybits
EDIT: Don't worry, tony, dan, I only had 8 bits.

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.

this should be in the spam or GD? it is talking about turing... i think...or am i confused? hmm damm..

[TheXploder]

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

[recneps]

helps if you HAVE bits to give to newbies....

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

[Paul]

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...

[Martin]

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

[Mazer]

YAY!

[TheXploder]

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...
