The only thing that seems kinda hard to list would be my full arsenal. I have a whole bunch of shit lying around and I'd forget most of it. However, you could do (for online use) a section called "Guns for sale/trade" and/or "Guns wanted", which would ultimately increase trade.

I think you should have info in all of those fields. That way, someone could search any of them. You could have multiple search fields that organize the search....For example, for Southern California, *I* think it would be cool to type in LA (Los Angeles), SD (San Diego), or OC (Orange County), and get counts for nerfers in each of those counties. Extrapolate that and I can imagine searching for OH for Ohio, NJ for New Jersey, VA for Virginia, CA for Canada, etc. But would that be useful? I don't know. Should I create separate location fields for city, county, state? I don't know. Would it be useful at all to find all the nerfers with crossbow as their primary weapon? I don't know. Should I add clan names? None of the SoCal nerfers I know belong to a 'clan' per se, so what would I enter for them? "Not applicable"? I don't know....
Such as:
Field one:
Field two:
Field three:
The entry in field one is the first thing searched, then field two, and then field three, allowing for a more advanced search.
Such as:
"Search for nerfers....
F1: Using Crossbows
F2: California
F3: Los Angeles.
Your search has returned these nerfers:
*names here (dont know any)*
All of the names would fit the descriptions entered in an exact match search.
Now, my trading/buying/selling idea. I figured this would help speed up the process. In your database profile, you input what guns you are willing to Sell, Sell/Trade, Trade, or Buy. Then, a person can search.
F1: Selling Splitfire
F2: Located in USA
F3:
Your search has returned these nerfers:
*names here*
That would be really cool! I think it would take some simple Java or php programming, but I think you guys could pull it off, and it would be really neat.

Yes, location by county would be usefull for new members who don't know if there are already nerfers in their area, and yes, what weapon/s the nerfer uses would also be usefull. For example, if my RF20 were broken, I could easily search for other people who have one and ask them specifically if they've had similar problems.
You could solve the clan problem by grouping nerfers by local events. In the same space in the database, nerfers from middletown (from my group) would have LGLF in that field, while other nerfers may have LANO or VANO in that field.

Completely new operating systems like BeOS are light years ahead of Windows in terms of... everything. Unfortunately, MS has the monopoly thing down cold and there's really no chance for competition.
Windows NT was a breakthrough for MS. It was stable enough to use as a server and did it's job well. MS accomplished this by grabbing the team that wrote VMS and telling them to write a server version of Windows that didn't have to be thoroughly backwards compatible. Windows 2000 and XP are a continuation of this trend. They took the stable NT core and started forcing all the software and hardware manufacturers to support something new.
Considering there have only been two completely new versions of Windows since the 3.1 days, MS is doing pretty well.

i agree in some ways. i think that being backwards compatible is important, but microsoft goes about it in a completly wrong way. i think that the newer versions should just be able to have a program for coverting files from (for example) the old Word to the new Word. (word is backwards compatible, but what i am complaining about is mostly networking and sharing properties). computers really could be hundreds of times better than they are now. when i first saw linux, it blew my mind. it really did, i was so impressed at the flexibility of the operating system. windows is designed to not be flexible, to hold their monopoly. a good example of this: i could not install a canon digital camera on my XP machine. i downloaded everything from canon and everything from microsoft to get it to work, it wouldn't work. then i looked on the list of cameras that could be installed, which included every brand i had ever heard of except for canon. i checked it out on the internet, and it turns out that the only reason i can't install that camera is because canon chose not to pay microsoft to include their cameras.I feel your pain but it's backwards compatability that has held MS back all these years.
sorry to get this whole thing off topic

I don't think Windows Update supports Win95 anymore either.I found it best to go to the windows update program that every windows program has in it. It automatically finds the updates for YOUR computer.
