Mambug Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Re: Coding Contests Why shouldnt this forum have coding contests, seperte n00bs from the pro's. I think that is totally retarded as everyone has their own skill level, and to call someone a n00b... well if thats how you talk, you need to go outside some more.

hamster01 Posted April 12, 2007 Author Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Coding Contests "Newbie" can be used as an endearing term to identify newcomers to a game or place. This definition can be shared with the term "noob", although some believe it has a different meaning. In popular belief, the term "noob" can also be an insult to a person who is being irritating by their actions. Noob may be used as a term of disdain for a new or lower ranking player or used as a method of demeaning accomplished players who make "stupid mistakes". players who make "stupid mistakes".!!

Mambug Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Coding Contests players who make "stupid mistakes".!! How can it be a stupid mistake when they don't understand exactly what they are doing? Thats not true; as well you are using it here to conclude yourself superior to others here by winning a content. Seriously, if that allows you to feel big then you really need to go get a life or take my original advice and go outside to see what sunlight is...

Guest Anonymous Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Coding Contests Im glad Im not the only one that dislikes that term being thrown around....just because someone lacks the knowledge to code or is a beginner does not make them stupid. Learning is a process everyone must begin at the beginning ...belittling people for doing just that is somewhat smallsighted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster01 Posted April 12, 2007 Author Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Coding Contests Yes, but what i mean by that is: People that are educted in php and does not do their best(stupid mistakes). And Mambug im not ugly but what the hell do you have against me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mambug Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Coding Contests Absolutely nothing. What would suggest I have anything against you? Is it because of a lot of your remarks on certain topics I read are lethargic? Last I checked, forums are used as a form of discussion... And for the whole People that are educted in php and does not do their best(stupid mistakes). ... Well you should have said that sooner... your "n00b" comment seemed quite immature.

mikey1090 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Re: Coding Contests its a good idea, it helps make people better coders and write more efficient secure code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Re: Coding Contests you can't write more efficent coding and become better without your peers that are better at it then you are. in php dev, you don't get better by just practice, i say it like this for the reason you can make bigger projects yes but that doesn't mean your scripting them correctly. though there may never be a correct way to do php since everyone has a differant way of doing things. for instance i have scripted alot of complex things but my scripting style i take alot of shortcuts and debuggers don't really like it when they see scripting with tons of shortcuts, they think everything should be spelt out. but i am sure you all get my point and i don't think i need to explain myself any further.

hamster01 Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 Re: Coding Contests so this is complicated: $do = fopen("log.txt",w); $text = $_POST['text']; fwrite($do, $text); fclose(); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decepti0n Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Re: Coding Contests fclose() would need the $do variable in it btw I agree with Twysted, i've only gotten better by looking at other scripts and seeing how they do things more efficiently etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
