Forum:Registering IllogiMedia (TM) as an official Freenode group

From Illogicopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I need an admin who has a real name and address to register IllogiMedia as a Freenode group. http://freenode.net/group_registration_form.php

I'm just too much of a paranoid anonymity freak to give out my real name for stuff like that. But basically, if we register as a group, we get cool stuff like our own Freenode IP cloaks, protection for our #illogicopedia IRC channel even when we're not there for long periods of time, and we get listed in their big giant list of project and various other goodies. So um, we should do it.

And also, I believe the formally official name of our "group" is IllogiMedia. Illogicopedia is the primary project of IllogiMedia, but we also have IllogiNews, IllogiGames and various other things which we regard as our names whether they're trademarked or whatever or not. Illogicopedia, the nonsense encyclopedia, just happens to be the biggest, main IllogiMedia project. Just like with the WikiMedia Foundation and Wikipedia.

I can see us moving to new technologies sometime in the next decade as wikis become obsolete. I still expect something like Google Wave to be the next generation of online collaboration. --Nerd42 22:51, 26 Yoon 2011 (UTC)

you basically need me to do it, since the domains are registered in my name. The problem here is that the group registration takes yonks to clear, last time I heard, the backlog was two years long. Sure, if I had done it two years ago, it might of cleared by now, but seriously? is it really worth a two year faff over a bunch of characters in your host-mask? --Silent Penguin 13:16, 27 Yoon 2011 (UTC)
well if you just do it, you can then completely forget about it for two years. our site has existed for more than two years and I expect us to continue to exist for more than two years --Nerd42 14:03, 27 Yoon 2011 (UTC)
