It strikes me as odd that the HB does not allow direct idea collaboration. There are many here that know each other personally, or are even life partners. Surely there are some cases where they maybe interested in working on an idea together?
look at annos

[Theircom]: "You think we can get away with it?"
[Petitor]: "I told you, it's perfectly safe, they will never find out we are actually two, besides, this idea throws them off!" |
|
|
pretty sure this is (half)baked. |
|
|
This is the norm in this zone |
|
|
I said this and it was boned badly. People like it coming from you. |
|
|
Its sad. The idea was deleted, (I dont know how it got deleted, either), but is mentioned in annos. |
|
|
See link. [redundant] annotation by me mentioning this. |
|
|
I've gotten pregnant being completed. |
|
|
A pregnant pause followed. |
|
|
Nice one [bristolz], I've impregnated and was completed. |
|
|
Collaboration, to me, means something intangible, something this software couldn't prevent if it wanted to. |
|
|
What you want is editing something together, or having a list of owners of an idea whose signatures appear below it, or something like that - and that's just too much administrative hassle for too little payoff. Just acknowledge your collaborators explicitly. |
|
|
Besides, in a way, everybody who comments on an idea is a potential collaborator. It would make me feel weird to have a privileged class of formal collaborators beyond that. I don't want to play mere audience to your public collaboration. |
|

And then I started talking to my elf and I said, "Let's both try to copy something like this" and I said "Okay, self" (works best in 800x600...)

I've thought a lot about composite users. I think that the future will have them in many roles. |
|
|
I thought this had been posted before, but I can't seem to find it. Anyway, it seems like an unnecessary complication to implement when joint baking is fairly easy anyway - just search for [wagster] and [crash]. The only difference would be how the bones and buns get allocated, and that's a step down the road to pettyville. |
|
|
an interesting idea that, a kind of halfbakery wiki, where trusted users could edit ideas. |
|
|
// how the bones and buns get allocated//
The weird thing Ive learned here and at other sites, is that people will work for little marks on a computer screen. Marks that have no redeemable or transferable value--no value at all. If only the government realized this! They could print up little pieces of paper and get people all over the world to send us stuff in exchange for...ah, excuse me...someones at the door...<loud voices, muffled screams, a clunk> |
|
|
Hmmm... user trusts are an interesting concept, a person selects specific users that they allow to edit; although it could lead to the Capulets vs. Montagues or more simply a great way for one user to manipulate the votes. |
|
|
wagster, it was done before (by yours truly) and got the same reception as this. The reason you couldn't find it was that I must have deleted it. |
|
|
theircompetitor: been there, done that. In fact, some accounts have actually been two- or multi-headed horses. |
|
|
oh, it's quite obvious people have done that in secret. |
|
|
Hm, I could swear I saw this posted here some time before... |
|
|
Me too. I just wish I could remember who posted it before. |
|
|
[waugs], [half], nope. Never. |
|
|
tc: Given all IDs are anonymous shells, how does not being secret make a difference? I don't think there's a Turing Test to detect split personalities. |
|
|
Well, [DrCurry], there's a certain persona we tend to attach to the monikers -- so I think that an idea that's explicitly authored by UB & FJ would certainly be expected to have different characteristics than one by a clandestine merge-id. |
|
|
There's been at least one dual-persona username in use here (link). |
|
|
wtf? jutta, we are getting spammed by [savetheearth] |
|
|
I bin flagging the spam links. Think what it wants to "wind up" is us. |
|
|
What I'm getting a little giggle about is I could practically nail [tc]'s join date from this post by subtracting a couple months: the gestation period of newby h'bakers between getting an account and proposing a collaborative effort, bulletin-board or hardcopy book seems to be 6-12 weeks. |

If you see spam, send email to bakesperson, don't just react within the site. Thanks! |
