Wait, everything that's going on in what, this thread or the entire rejuvenation project or what?
pogotribe.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=revamp&action=display&thread=6446 that's like a brief explanation of things. But I'm not sure of everything that's going on 'cause the project's been divided into many areas, some of which I don't comepletely understand.

Oh, read Dan's/Asher's post

EDIT:

So I know that everyone here has some mixed feelings about me, between my Dan 3.0 followers and those of you who think that it should have turned out differently. Let me just say that I appreciate all of you and that I could never be doing what I’m doing today if not for you, and that’s awesome. I love you guys. That being said, I would like to apologize to those of you who feel disappointed that I’ve let SPOTM go, you have every right to be upset. I am sorry. But I am also human, I make mistakes, and I ask you not to hold a grudge. I’d like to rejoin SPOTM and with your help I’d love to help decrease worldsuck.

So I’ve been catching up with goings on around here, and it seems that one of the biggest problems here is the lack of active and committed members. How are we supposed to change the world if we don’t have the manpower. While reading through the projects section I came across a very promising idea, the QR code poster project.

So that idea is awesome. It uses basic advertising principles coupled with engaging graphics to hook people’s interest, and with the ubiquity of smartphones out there a person could just scan it and join right on the spot. I loved it. So I continued reading and I found this:

That idea just blew my mind! And it got me thinking, what if we could combine the two projects to make one super awesome project of epic proportions? We can “gamify” SPOTM while getting new members!

Here’s what it would entail. Basically each user would be issued a referral link that they could use to recruit members. Each member that signs up with their URL gives them a referral point. Points can be traded for rewards such as custom graphics, or whatever you guys can work out with SPOTM’s talent. Maybe a song, a picture, a sketch, whatever. I believe that this can really rejuvenate us.

I don’t know how to do any of this though, which is why I am calling on all coders, web designers, and geeks of all shapes, sizes, and color to work on this project and help make it a reality. Together I hope to bring SPOTM back to what it should always have been. Let’s do this.

EDIT AGAIN: The links are broken, can't be arsed
