81. Are you trying to suggest to us that you have actually been the slow car that is causing the long line because of the unreasonable speed limit and some silly motor protesters?

82. Any driving convictions convictions? speeding tickets, parking ticket, or any other interesting driving issues?

83. All this talk about vehicles has reminded me of racechase.com, are there any other sites you administer that might be of interest to other users here at Ozzu?

58. Have you ever made a mistake of banning a member by accident?

Don't think so, if I did I just undid it.

59. Your avatar sports a snappy outlook, did you ever serve in the army? Would you volunteer if needed?

I never served. I would most likely never volunteer, but if my country needed me I would go. I would probably try to be a helicopter pilot since I already have a bachelor's degree and have 500-600 hours of flying experience in an airplane which gives me a nice head start over others.

The sun.

61. Tell us of any creative ideas ever conceived.

Ozzu.

62. Believer or skeptics?

Somewhere in the middle.

63. Tell us how environmentally-friendly you are.

I recycle, that is probably as far as that goes.

64. The most unusual place you have visited outside your place.

As I recall Canada was unusual ;)

65. Tell us about your future vision for Ozzu.

My future vision is to have Ozzu's useful resources and members continue to grow.

Thayk wrote:
65. North Pole or South Pole?

Probably South Pole since when the ice eventually melts in the North pole I would be left swimming in the water.

67. Is there any member in OZZU who you would want to meet? If so, who is it?

Umm, not really :lol: Actually if I had to choose only one it would probably be Unflux (Bryan). We are partners with Unflux.net and I have known him the longest here other than Assneck (Adam) who I knew since high school.

Bogey wrote:
68. Who, here at OZZU, has helped you the most? (Besides ATNO/TW :lol:).

Well there are many people who have helped ozzu at different times throughout ozzu's life. In the beginning I would have to say Unflux and Gadget Guru were a very big help, then ATNO/TW came along and has always been a huge help. Other than that all of the moderators have done a wonderful job keeping Ozzu a great place for its members. As of lately Joebert stands out to me as well as he has helped reprogram a few parts of Ozzu to make it more efficient and server friendly.

Bogey wrote:
69. Which year would you like to relive? Why?

I am actually quite happy with the current year. I sometimes miss my childhood during the summers when I had no responbility other than playing baseball and goofing off.

Bogey wrote:
70. What programming language would you like to learn that you don't know yet?

Nothing comes to mind, as I am quite happy with PHP, PERL, and C/C++. I seem to be able to do everything I need to do with those languages. I wouldn't mind someday learning ActionScript (as well as doing designing/editing in Flash).

Bogey wrote:
71. What are you feelings on Communism? Was it a good idea gone wrong or was it a bad idea at the beginning?

I don't like it. I think it communism had really good intentions but in my opinion it is just a failed idea. People who work harder and do more for our society in my opinion should be rewarded more. Motivation based on rewards is something that encourages new ideas and technology. While capitilism has its problems too, I feel its a better system.

Bogey wrote:
72. Which American president changed America the most to the good side.

John F. Kennedy

Bogey wrote:
73. Who is your favorite president?

Couldn't pick a favorite - Franklin D. Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, and John F. Kennedy.

Bogey wrote:
74. Do you think George Bush should have attacked Iraq?

No, I think we should have invested our tax dollars domestically to help create a better economy for our citizens here. Also instead of going on the offensive I think its much more economical to focus on defenses instead such as protecting our borders, etc.

Bogey wrote:
75. Why did you choose "Bigwebmaster" as your username?

Had the site: bigwebmaster.com so used that as the username when starting ozzu.

Bogey wrote:
76. What was the most difficult update that you had to make to OZZU?

Going from phpbb2 to phpbb3 took quite a bit of work. Had to completely redo all of the templates and re-create mods, and it was probably the update that took the longest. I am still not finished with things I want to get done.

Bogey wrote:
77. What are your future plans for OZZU? (Besides rebuilding the OZZU webtemplates service).

Future plans include creating more resources for members. I would like to somehow figure out a way to make the site more community driven giving certain members the responsibility to manage sections of ozzu. In my opinion I can only do so much as an administrator and to grow means I will have to give our responbility to others.

Bogey wrote:
78. Will the theme for OZZU ever change or will it stay like this?

I am sure there will be changes and additional themes.

Bogey wrote:
79. Are you going to add the themes that were in the CSS Competition?

While there were many great entries there, the problem is it would still require a great deal of work for me to implement those themes. There are two reasons for this. The first reason is that the HTML has changed quite a bit on ozzu since that competition. The second reason is that the CSS competition only covered the CSS for the homepage on ozzu. Ozzu has over 130 different template pages for all of the different pages on ozzu that the CSS would have to work for. This takes alot of time and effort on my part. Keeping the same theme but with different colors is a much easier task as I can simply change color values in all of the CSS code and update a few images.

Bogey wrote:
80. Is Unflux hosting OZZU?

Technically no, but almost the same thing. Ozzu is on its own server due to all of the resources it uses. Unflux is located in the same datacenter and the servers are all managed by me.

I have been the slow car before. I have also been the one driving too close to a slow car ahead of me that was going the speed limit because I was in a hurry or impatient. I have even gone to court because of this.

Yes.

Probably, but I haven't been putting much efforts into them as I have been focussing more on a handful of sites. Sites I could see some members interested in would be gamegophers.com, racechase.com, weightdebate.com, and bigfreelancer.com.

Yeah, it was good reading the replies mainly due to the effort you went into making it clear what the answer was to the question.

Quite interesting to see you never quite dwelled on to the whole "driving convictions" bit. I seem to recall you giving me a bit of a hard time by highlighting my driving situation during my last GTKY thread.

It looks about the same as I haven't really done much since then. I will be doing more hopefully this summer though and maybe I will update a picture then.

I think around 30 hours or so, nothing too impressive. I love sleep.

Had my honeymoon in St. Lucia...absolutely amazing. Let me recommend this place as one of the most amazing places to stay - http://www.ladera.com/

The Pitons are amazing...almost fake how huge they are...and your right between them. Our suite was about 1,500 square feet, 15ft deck and a pool that was both outside and inside our room.

Highly recommended.
