I think that a live chat where members can hang out would be fantastic! Especially for quick one-liner questions. It would save forum space and time.

It has been discussed before. Please see this other thread.

Maybe just create a Facebook profile for FASM and chat there? Just an idea.

Maybe an IRC room?

We also definitely need a post trimming add on. Or limit the number of chars one can write except when inside code tags.

I'm serious about that project and someone should start it, but I also think that I shouldn't be the one to do that as my affiliation with fasm isn't strong enough and hasn't lasted long enough. The website or the server doesn't have to carry labels with "fasm" in it, it can be a general assembly server for any assembler, with a bit more focus on fasm (secretly). I would actually recommend that the server would not be too religious about being affiliated with fasm, it creates strains and it becomes a religion, it is always wise to carry some neutrality in the names one picks. Let people know its about fasm, but don't use fasm in the name, preferably keep it extremely neutral. When you narrow things down to names, it gets narrowed down in people's heads too. You want to blow this thing up to become like what people want to imagine it to be, and the only way to let people define that website in their own terms and emotions, is to keep is as neutral as possible. It should form its own life in people's own heads.
I still believe in the idea of a common server for downloading asm functions to your local library folder in an easy way, with an update tool. There are probably a ton of ideas that can be added to it to make it even better. Assembly has everything, but it doesn't have a system that binds it all together to attract productive people to it. What could be more amusing than to have a sharing app, with a pure and clean list of tons of functions you can download, with the security that someone will always improve on those functions, and you can re-download the fastest possible function at any time later. If you imagine you have a large library on your harddrive, the difference between such a library and a sharing app, is that the library you personally build (in a customized way) is a dynamic library, it's always updated where the typical traditional library is static and unchanged. You basically give power to external users over your own projects, in an indirect way. It's a sacrifice, but it's a fun and productive sacrifice to give other assembly coders that authorithy, you are relieved of some of the stress and so is the other guy at the other end. Not only can you download source files, but include files, interfaces, premade resource dialogs and other resource files. If some guy is too happy about his dialog, he can simply just drop it in the sharing app and add it to the public server for anyone to download. |

PE: Good ideas. I've always imagined a desktop application with internet access where there are categories for MATH, TEXT, FILE, IMAGE, OBJECT, etc. Let everyone contribute their functions and modules. Let the users choose which functions to incorporate in their own libraries. Let serious programmers like me disable all responses. Let there be a chat room for talk, drama, emotions, feelings and temporary messages that we don't want to stay visible permanently, faith-based discussions which may be helpful in personal relationships but are irrelevant to programming which is about truth, logic and verification.
