OK, I get it. Looking for volunteers, on a secret project, that no one knows what to do or to look for...

OMG! It's an DHS POI! cool

Um

He does say that the info would be hard to get.

Finding out what the poi file is for is the first hard piece of info you need to obtain...

Judging from his profile he is a maintainer of forest fire lookout towers. Perhaps it has something to do with that.

POI?

Don't know what the group project is. But I have been thinking of something, does anyone watch the Travel and Food channels and want to go to those places seen in the shows? I checked here and there doesn't seem to be one yet. Maybe we could have POI based on Dumpsters, Drives and Dive Ins and Man vs. Food!

They do exist

Diners, Drive-In and Dives, $40 a day, and the Man vs Food POI's are available here.

I've got something to sell. But first everyone must send me $1,000,000 and then and only then will I tell you what it is. wink

Sorry, but I find it hilarious that someone is actually asking for volunteers but not willing to disclose the project. Too funny.

Heck, sign me up.....

pore responce

the idea is to work on something together poi not important at this time.

Okay lets play to tell the truth

Miss POI - I'd like to suggest that this thread be deleted since it's apparent the OP is messing around.

Well,

Maybe it’s the location of steam rooms and saunas?

Work on something together

This doesn't mean we're going to take warm showers together, I hope.

the idea is to work on something together

The last time I saw a couple of men volunteer for something like that, they wound up at a remote radar site in Greenland.

to tell the truth!

Comments

After reading all the post here, the only thing I can discern is that the individual who started this sure generated a lot of post about nothing.

where is numnum

Is he/she going to clarify the original post.

are we the project?

Pore Responce

Reader-response theory recognizes the reader as an active agent who imparts "real existence" to the work and completes its meaning through interpretation. Reader-response criticism argues that literature should be viewed as a performing art in which each reader creates his or her own, possibly unique, text-related performance. It stands in total opposition to the theories of formalism and the New Criticism, in which the reader's role in re-creating literary works is ignored.

Perhaps ..

Perhaps we should change the thread topic to "New Keep The Windmill Alive Idea"? It's effective at that, yeah? wink

Probably would have gotten better response if you would have asked about anyone interested in Fire Towers though. I'd even consider doing MD if that were the case.

It's about the Line- If a line can be drawn between the powers granted and the rights retained, it would seem to be the same thing, whether the latter be secured by declaring that they shall not be abridged, or that the former shall not be extended.

no woorys mates

it will sale somewhere else

Sale somewhere slse?????

So, it sounds like he/she is looking for volunteers to do the work which he/she will sell elsewhere. Doesn't sound kosher to me, but good try though.

I doubt it.

I learned a long time ago when I was in the Army. Never volunteer for something when you don't know what you are volunteering for.

This post

This post would have gone in a lot different direction if the person who started it would have asked for help on "Food" "Travel" "Churches" "Graveyards" or anything else like that.
We all might have considered something like that, but no one is going to say yes to something that you would not, or could not, post here.

I second this suggestion. Posts like this just hurt the signal-to-noise-ratio of the forum.

ok spit it out already

numnum wrote:

Ok, now I am curious, what is your project idea?

Miss POI

So we will get paid for working on your project?

numnum wrote:

Are you sure you want to know?

Volunteers...

There may be volunteers, but unless we know what your idea is, you're not going to get a lot of good responses. It almost sounds as if you're afraid that if you tell us your idea someone's going to steal it. The catch 22 is that if you don't tell us the idea you'll never be able to act upon that idea.

So, out with it already, before you try my patience and the patience of others.

thankyou

i think your all missing the point,however i got the overall answer to my question.and thats ok, thankyou

Many of the projects here

Many of the projects here are made from contributions from others across the country.

That said, how do you expect others to contribute, or say they will, if you won't say what the project is?

If you are afraid of someone stealing your idea, create a file with a couple real entries and upload it. Then when others contribute you can update it.

OK I get it

First Numnum asked

then (s)he asked

numnum wrote:

Next the statement

numnum wrote:

(S)he then reiterated

numnum wrote:

And finally

numnum wrote:

i think your all missing the point,however i got the overall answer to my question.and thats ok, thankyou

So,

numnum wants to know if anyone is interested in working on a secret group project and that it will be a commercial poi file since it was stated that it will be for sale on another website.

If you are interested in helping out, contact numnum. If not, don't.

It probably would have been easier to state this unambiguously but I think by now this is clear.

Who would want to pay...

for something given away for free by so many nice people here at the Poi-Factory?!

Thanks for all your efforts, people!!

Sounds like a group project would end up being a huge file and be a mess to maintain.

you said a moth full there

its amazing what can be read into one little statement

OK everyone calm down, I am

OK everyone calm down, I am speaking with numnum in emails and have explained that the only files that have a charge to them are the Photo enforcement camera files.

Those files help pay the cost of running the website.

Miss POI

Anyone Notice

Has anyone noticed in numnum's tracks that this person has never had any involvment with anyone's post but their own. This tell us that all they are interested in is Fire Lookout Towers.

I bet the idea is about Fire Lookout Towers!!! razz

I think that numnum meant 'sail' not "sale" or "sell".

Just a thought.

Although the whole idea of the thread still doesn't make any sense.
