  • Hive Website Development ***CLASSIFIED***

    *** CLASSIFIED ***

    Comrades,

    Work has begun on the glorious new web page of the Human Hive!

    I have taken the great Googlie's suggestion to use Bravenet. It has top banners and a few popups, but it seems reliable and we didn't have to jump through many hoops to register.

    The features:

    Banner Ads
    FTP allowed
    100 Megs Storage Space
    600 Megs/Month Bandwidth Limit
    20 Megs Daily Bandwidth Limit
    MID files allowed
    There isn't much there yet to look at, but the URL is available at:



    As the weekend progresses, I will add more content. Please post your ideas and suggestions here.

    We need talented writers to develop content as well, something we in the Hive have an abundance of, fortunately.

    Good images you have found or created are also welcome.

    Also, please write for yourself a short biographical sketch and post here. This can be in character, out of character or both. If you have a picture you wish to add, let me know and we can make arrangements on posting that as well.

    Remember this information is TOP SECRET and under no circumstances should it be posted outside of our private forum until we are ready to unleash it upon the unsuspecting drones in the other factions!

    Nice one Static. I suggest all back issues of PRAVDA. Do you want the text in HTML format? Or would you rather do that yourself to keep the house look?

    I also think we have to include all transcripts of the CyCon, so when we do unleash it they can be royally PISSED seeing how we can read their code already We can lie a bit so they think we could always understand it right from the beginning

      Let's wait a bit as the house style develops. It shouldn't be too hard to convert them.

        You calling one of my suggestions diabolical, Static? That's awfully nice of you

        However, to be fair, we also need a master plan to PISS OFF the Uni - that's much higher on my agenda. Perhaps our secret spy Tass can be of use

          I think that one can specify which genre of banners etc is allowed - I know in my commercial site I only have financial services, computer stuff and e-Bay/Amazon etc ads (i.e. no lingerie or lottery, etc stuff)

          It might be the "small business" package, though.

            I'm looking through the options but I don't see one for that.

            I have the site categorized as "Games (Computer/Internet/RPG)" so maybe that has some influence.

            I'm looking at the forum options over there as well. That should be interesting.

              Great Idea Comrades!!!!!

              Apologies that I have not been here for awhile, my internet connection is on the fritz (i.e. messed up) so I haven't been able to access Apolyton for awhile. I hope this message gets through seeing as how the past few times I've been trying to post, it hasn't worked. Anyway, I will help on the construction of the site when my internet connection stops acting up.

                  This is indeed a great development of the Human Hive! Let's work on that with full force! I can help some if needed, I know html and asp although haven't really been practising these for some times.

                  One comment is that the blue link on blue background is not very easy to see although I'm sure you just haven't had the chance to do much yet.

                  On the content in addition to the national anthem, Pravda and the CC decodes (GREAT idea Jam I'm extremely thrilled) we probably could use a couple stories about Yang and Voltaire and how we get to become the Hive faction before the unity pod landing. Maybe some false announcement about our production and military actions so we could mislead inform other factions about the progress of the building of this great country. Now this needs to be planned carefully and the information should appear to be leaked inadvertently. The information should also be taken off the website after a couple of days. This could increase the credibility as well as increase the hit count because they'll check it as often as possible so that they don't miss an important information. Something like the Chairman's diary or minutes of the PAC. Then the link should appear to be removed but they could somehow still access that info through a back door (say if they remember the url the file should still be there and being updated every now and then only no link is included in the webpage). Maybe even add a password that is crackable for that file after the leak is discovered.

                  Hack maybe we can even put the code book in the website if we are going to develop our own coding system for public forums. What's more is that we can even put the decoding machine there too. However, the correct way to utilize it will not be revealed to the public and there should be a database of plausible sentences stored in the machine so when somebody who use the machine incorrectly he'll get a sentence that is generated randomly by the machine which is unfortunetaly totally unrelated to the real message. Of course this means a lot of work and effort. If we are going to do it, then we better do it early when the game doesn't need a lot of thinking and discussions.
                  Be good, and if at first you don't succeed, perhaps failure will be back in fashion soon. -- teh Spamski

                    I registered there and there aren't nearly half the options on the back end. I'll play around with it a little more and see which is more suitable for us.

                      This Comrade HongHu is so FULL of good ideas. If I'm ever stuck for something to do I'm going to shake him till some more fall out. I love the idea of misinforming the other factions and making them check back everyday to get the latest news
