What made you want to switch over to the doc team?
Do you like getting whipped or not?
You have 3 wishes, make any wishes you want.
I'm designing the core parser of the game, and leaving the gameplay to the others. It is basically an xml backend, which can be used by AJAX or anything else. And it's GPLed too
https://sourceforge.net/projects/compassengine/
I changed cause I didn't want to answer as many repeditive support questions, and because I like 'doc'ing.
Do you think it matters if you don't like it?
Do you realize some of the Team Members BEG for a whipping (and don't get it)?
If you could change one feature in SMF what would it be? Why?
Whats your duties as a DOC writer?
Dutie.. other than avoiding being whipped.. I just edit docs now mostly, but eventually I want to give the advanced section of the OM a complete overall, and document every part of SMF's insides.
Ever watched star trek?
Role model? (and why?)
Ever tried a real Scottish Haggis?
Role model: hmm no big ones really. but one little one is Dr John Baumgardner who completely changed what his PhD to geophysics (something he had no experience in) because he wanted to understand the issue well and defend his religion.
Haggis? no.
i think he must be saving that exact same text in a text file or sumthing then posting it at each thread? eh trekkie ?
cuz its the EXACT same text
If you could remove one feature what would it be and why?

http://www.nederland-australie2006.nl/
How do you like that?
I'd love to see australia sometime
What was the most challenging thing for you & the doc team when building the on line manual?
Hmm, I've only been on the doc team a short while so I haven't been involved in too much of it. But the hardest thing is really being comprehensive for something as large as SMF.
Was it hard learning all these codes?
do you like Fear Factory(Slave Labour, Full Metal Contact and Zero Signal in specificly)
do you have a local testing server installed?
if so you used a pre-packed thingy or did it yourself?
what O.S do you use(no awnser is windows)?
how long youve been coding php(and MySQL)?
I had apache+php+mysql set up before I reformatted my computer. I might set it up again later. I also set up a standalone linux webserver but it was really slow. Now I most test on live sites hehe.
I use win98 mostly, although I installed Arch Linux a few weeks ago. Need to get that working. X.org tells me I don't have a monitor.. which is strange becuase I'm pretty sure I do.
Only really since I've been using SMF. Less than a year.
How did you get to become a Documentation writer?
Nah, I like Arch. It's a bit of a challenge. Ubuntu would be too simple. But.. if I later decide I don't like Arch for some reason I could always change distros. thats the awesome thing about linux. Try changing anything in windows...
I was a support specialist for a few months first, but then I decided I'd like doc writing more so I asked for a transfer
Do you like being on the Doc Team?
Do you still provide support when you can?
