lucid, why did you delete your comments? now my (and other's) comments on those look really dumb without that context ... :-P – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 08:44

Sorry Tom, my objection got somehow out of control. – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 08:38

What you found out here, that's commonly done so. You've got a MySpace profile, don't you? Ever read their terms & conditions or privacy statement? It will be about the same, or even worse. – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 08:34

I wanted to point you on the "The Way Hubdub.com Uses This Information" section in the privacy document. Sorry, should have said that. – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 08:33

lucid, you still don't get the point. Please read the privacy statement (http://www.hubdub.com/public/privacy) and the terms/conditions page (http://www.hubdub.com/public/terms) first, and compare those restrictions with the "you can do with the information whatever you want" agreement here.
Of course they know who I am. That's not the point. The point is: What do I allow them to do with the information. – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 07:57

It's seems that some people did not really get what I wanted to say. We'll, actually it seems only one did not, but I've stopped reading his responses as they became personal. And because they are too long.

To make it clear:
- I have fun playing HUBDUB
- I am willing to contribute to HUBDUB (I think no one else ever doubted)
- I would give HUBDUB a statement and my picture
- I DO NOT WANT ANY MONEY FOR THAT (oh, man, seriously, why would anyone want to pay for that?)

The only thing is: "however they wish"

It could, along with others, include "give it to third party" like affiliates. At that point, control over my data is being lost.
This must be formulated in a excluding way, stating explicitly what they "wish", and limiting the use to only that. This is the professional way. And HUBDUB is run by professionals, I'm sure.

I hope, Tom, you see what's the point here.

Butterflies flying around above a fresh green valley. The world is sooo beautiful ... all people hugging each others sharing their joints ... free love all around .... and than - all of a sudden - the beta stage is over and the site gets run by those of'm being condemnable capitalists, putting ads all over the once so beautiful and peaceful blue/light gray design of what we once called noble and selfless hubdub. – kruijs, on April 21, 2008 05:55

thanks for whatever you were trying to say to me, lucid. It was very interesting to hear your point of view. Now I know, with whom I'm dealing. – kruijs, on April 19, 2008 18:20

Another Idea: Make the friends shown on an users profile in random order such that not only the newest five accounts are shown over and over.

Thanks for introducing the confirmation screen. Keep up the good work!
I hope you will keep on improving the site by implementing our wishes :-P

hm, sorry to interrupt the excitement, but I think "however they wish" goes too far in my eyes...
It's the shortest and easiest way to get a permission, I understand, and although I allege that HD has only honest motives, I won't ever give such a full permission without any restrictives. Sorry about that.

well, this is still a news-prediction site, so it should be news-centered.
the comments tab is only such a social network thingy :)
i'd like to have a configuration option for this in my site settings.
there is that checkbox with which news can be show/hidden in the market-lists too.
i also said i the "new and improved" thread that it would be useful when content of all hidden tabs is not loaded as part of the page, so the page would respond faster. look at the "whos gonna be president" market with 100+ comments - that page takes very long to load and render.
