Also, I don't know about other forums, but deleted threads and posts aren't removed from the database. They just don't show up any more. The data is still there. |

storing forum information in the database is very inexpensive, as HDD space is cheap. however, searching becomes more difficult (time consuming). right now, forum searches only match the thread title, which reduces the complexity of the search.

| I have a question...when it comes to post management, I notice that every post ever made is still on here and can be viewed by anyone if they search for it. However, I've noticed other forums such as gamespot/gamefaqs delete posts every 30 days or to some extent. So, I was wondering...if you do keep all posts ever created, will that have an impact on memory or cost for running the site? Thanks |

Yes, the number of a forum section would be the order they were created. |

I notice then you view the "alt", I think it's called, of the forum titles on the home forum page it says things like anime=1 and physics=2. Are these the order of the birth if the various forums? BTW what were the very first anime threads? Did you start them? |

We limit signatures to 100px because when they start getting bigger they take up unnecessary amounts of space between posts on the forum and can become annoying and make the forum hard to read. |

by "all this" i assume you mean web programming and management skills. well, my first website was actually an RPG midi page. i had made a similar sort of thing in Hypercard, then wanted to see how it worked on this new "internet" thing my dad was talking about. (he is an english teacher, and wrote part of his dissertation using the university mainframe remotely from home) i used an HTML what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor, which did not do tables well at all. so, after publishing the page, i edited the HTML by experimental trial and error. later, we got a 14.4mbps modem, which was fast at the time. so, i downloaded my first mp3 files and was impressed with the quality and potential for sharing. using our internet service provider's (scruznet at the time) complimentary web-space, i put up a few songs. i was getting used to search engines by that time, and submitted my site to them. the number of hits my website received was promising, so i expanded to further web-space. the rest is history, going on to add a database for easy site maintenance and adding additional features using PHP. originally, the database was Oracle (which sucks by the way). actually, there was a year where some of the dynamic site features were done using Perl. i actually made a database application from the bottom up, as a result of some of the stuff i was studying in school at the time. other than that, my schooling never came DIRECTLY in handy with gendou.com. however, the discipline and overall understanding of the computer world which i learned in school does come in handy constantly, whenever i am faced with a challenge. to me, this is the true value of school. you can learn facts anywhere, but methodology and patience come from dedicated (and often forced) work over time. in any case, i later migrated to MySQL. my PHP and MySQL knowledge helped me get my previous job, where i got more experience and lots of new ideas. my cat niko helps me program! she also runs into the sliding glass door.

Do a lot of people in your everyday life know about your website and how big it is? I would be bragging to everybody! XD BTW you're very smart, have you tested your IQ? What is it? |

hahahaha! you might as well hear yourself scream, shishio! =D Gendou, how long did it actually take you to learn all this? i mean, you mentioned that you've learned some of them previously, then in your company, then on your own... why didn't you bother to just enroll in some class and get a diploma at the same time instead of learning it on your own? i bet you'd get great offers from HUGE companies. =D

if you get banned from Gendou.com, everywhere you go, you see blackness, you hear only the screams of a thousand babies, your skin burns white-hot in endless flame, and the stench of hot sulfer and feces fills your nostrils until the ban expires.

gendou-sama, what are you going to do if someone shuts down your site? i mean, even if some nuclear bomb blasts and wrecks everything you have and will need to make you start from scratch, isn't it possible that they close it down again? i hope no one does! it rocks like so much! i can't believe you did all this... it's so good! it is, after all, your pride and joy... =D -michiyo-

You can thank the users who donate for the ad-free nature of gendou.com. If it were not for them, I would have resorted to ads of some sort, or had to shut down the site altogether.
