Getting involved within the community
-
Hey, I've been developing professionally for about two years, since leaving Uni most of my education has been through Q&A sites and communities like this. So I've been reading Code Project for a few months now I thought I should actually say hello! instead of lurking in the shadows. So hey all! Hope I can get involved a little! :)

Welcome to no longer being a lurker. It always surprises me how few people actually get involved relative to the astronomical membership numbers.

They exist everywhere, but we try to do our best to exterminate them. :) Welcome.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Well yes...but I suspect that 10% signed up to download something and then never came back, 10% are active, and the rest are sock puppets... :sigh: (But even then, that leaves nearly 1,000,000 active, so there may be more sock puppets than I had assumed! :laugh: )

They do, but generally speaking, this[^] happens to them rather quickly. ;P

I think I was misunderstood when I asked to have "someone pour the sugar on me". They must've heard "Simon pour Lee Shugar". Welcome. :)

Hi Simon, Welcome aboard ! I believe the ancient principle "over time: what you get back is more than what you give" applies here, but what you get back may be very surprising. enjoy, Bill
“Beginning, middle, and end of birth, growth, and perfection we behold is from contraries, by contraries, and to contraries; and whatever contrariety is, there is action, reaction, there is motion, diversity, multitude, order.”
Giordano Bruno, cosmologist, philosopher, burned at the stake for heresy on February 17, 1600. When condemned, he said to his Inquisitors: “Perhaps you pronounce this verdict against me with greater fear than I receive it.”
