Le Foo est Morte; Vive le Foo!

Posted by Ender on Jan 28, 2008 at 01:43 AM

OK, people. We all know we'd all like to see a resurgent Foo. Some of us even have ideas on how to get there.

What's been lacking has been action. And we can all sit around and bemoan the current state of affairs, or we can take action.

I'll start by just giving my own personal perceptions here, only to serve as conversation starters.

Firstly, Ric's made strong efforts in the past, but at this stage, clearly we need to get some other folks actively involved in development. KungFoo.com as a domain name is a very strong one, with a high degree of intrinsic value.

The content....some of it NEEDS TO GO. I'd be referencing the notorious "Punkerslut" essays there....seriously, can anyone read those and not either A.) Vomit in their mouths, or B.) View it as a highly immature work that would turn off prospective new members?

The rest of the content, in terms of its value in bringing fresh blood to the site, declines in such value every. single. day, but for now, serves as a valuable resource from which to rebuild.

We need to seize on all that and further it.

The first step would be to get people engaged once more in submitting news. We can convert to an "off the shelf" CMS, or actively further the existing one, but all of that is for naught if nobody ever submits anything, and only the usual suspects comment on those submissions.

The second step would obviously be to bring "hotties" back online. I won't even bother commenting on this one, because we all know who was brought here that way, and who the target market for hotties is.

The next steps would be to start spinning on how we can, firstly, get things back the way they were, and secondly, how to build on it once we get there.

And with that, I open the floor for comments:

Gathering my thoughts but one thing is for sure. Hotties was hot!

holyjuan spoke on Jan 28, 2008 at 07:47 PM

Fuck yeah... ever since jellyfish started to get laid by something that wasn't made of plastique, he's been off the hotties. Get it back up!!

And I'll post more fake content.

I'd strongly suggest we look at Joomla or Drupal to give us a head-start on getting the Content Management and commenting stuff ready ASAP, and to give us a platform from which to build.

I'm not the slickest guy on the planet on doing custom mods, but the captionator should be easy to integrate, hotties may even work as-is. When jelly gets his ass in on this thread, we'll see what he has to say, too.

Let's get this done, folks. We all sit around and moan about how things were kicking in the day, it's time we worked together and did something about it. :)

If only there was a book we could read on the subject...

RickySilk spoke on Jan 30, 2008 at 04:06 AM

I'd be down with Joomla and with your help I'm sure my learning curve for coding up a couple of extensions for hotties and captionator wouldn't be too bad. The biggest pain would be importing old content.... but it's doable. Actually the biggest pain would be getting new content flowing again. If we had a small core of foobies who could each commit to 1 new bit of content a week that would get things rolling.

I can submit a video and captioner photo a week; I'm done with posting articles, though I still want MA POINTZ! :)

Anonymous Coward spoke on Jan 30, 2008 at 09:01 PM

I don't think the type of articles I tend to post will help attract the target demographic.

I'm a conservative, I support Bush, I support McCain, I support a war with Iran. I'm against welfare for lazy dope smoking losers.

What kungfoo needs is more liberal crap that will attract the young and stupid males. It will also attract the old and stupid males, like holyjuan! You folks need Ron Paul shit on here to get attention. Plus more "OMG, did you hear about Brittany" type of shit.

So the best thing I can do is keep my mouth shut. However, I do have a collection of cool pictures from the internet that I'll happily submit.

What I wanna see is more hotties. I used to love Britney whoopin them panties over to the side kind of stuff. And like when HolyJuan was having gay sex with that insane murderous Russian double agent. And how about let's stir up some religious controversy by bashing muslims?

squee spoke on Jan 31, 2008 at 07:48 AM

Yeah those muslim hate rants are so intellectual, THATS why everyone ignores them.

I do like the idea of assigning regular foobs to post something once a week or so, I'll try doing that.

I'm afraid to say I don't have the foo as my homepage anymore, it just doesn't cut the tomato sauce (or something) anymore

holyjuan spoke on Jan 31, 2008 at 06:33 PM

I hope www.holyjuan.com is your homepage. Juan is the new Foo sans the community and good content.

BadKitty spoke on Jan 31, 2008 at 08:18 PM

I will commit to fucking off at work a lot more and getting back into Foo. I think what I miss most is the way that the comments were arranged on the page. You know the collapsing page where you could scan thru the comments. You know I think of things all the time to post. I'm in. Oh yeah, and Dick....If you don't post, who are we going to argue with? What will we have to talk about if we are all nodding and agreeing with one another. (Unless the Rev would like to rear his head around here again for some abuse)

carpanza spoke on Feb 01, 2008 at 12:54 PM

We need more internet trolls and semi-retarded juggalos to be great again!
I'm sure there is some group of internet savvy people we can taunt.

holyjuan spoke on Feb 04, 2008 at 05:36 AM

Yeah, what is the new Group of Juggalos?

Oh yeah.. 9/11 Conspiracists.

Anonymous Coward spoke on Feb 07, 2008 at 08:09 PM

I think the Foo has just grown up too much. If I wanted news, I'd go to CNN or something. I miss the old Foo:(

BadKitty spoke on Feb 08, 2008 at 07:53 AM

oh! I just remembered something we are missing. Polls. I used to love polls. Bring em back, Ricky. Please!

Anonymous Coward spoke on Jul 09, 2008 at 08:56 PM
