Guest Scathane Posted June 7, 2003 Posted June 7, 2003 To be honest, I voted no as well. Why? Well first of all, I think that everyone deserves a second chance as well. However, I don't think he's going to change... The reactions he's shown in these forums were rather unprovoked. Moreover, he said some serious stuff: I for one think it's a very serious thing for somebody to make light jokes about stuff such as pregnancy, suicide and unemployedness...

Well, in essence, he's saying that since you changed your icon his cookie blocker blocked a cookie from KFC... Wormie, I use a tool called Cookie Pal to help control the cookies that end up on my PC. Everytime a website tries to stick a cookie on my PC, I get a pop up to either block it or accept it. The first time I logged into SWR and you had your new Colonel logo, KFC tried to stick a cookie on my PC. BTW KFC = Kentucky Fried Chicken.

The first time I logged into SWR and you had your new Colonel logo, KFC tried to stick a cookie on my PC. BTW KFC = Kentucky Fried Chicken.I was about to guess that! Well, not in those exact same words and I didn't know about Cookie Pal, but I had a feeling it had to do with the cookies the websites put in your PC. No, really, I did think that! By the way, why are they called cookies? And what purpose do they serve? SOCL: Putting the BE in BEAK.Read the Forum Rules - Welcome the New Members - Rebellion Reloaded -

No, I did not mean cookies as in the type you eat, I meant the type of cookies websites put on your PC.

Guest Scathane Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 (edited) A cookie is a very small text file that is put on your hard drive by some Web pages to be used by other Web pages. Since the release of Netscape Navigator 2.0, cookies have been used by many Web page designers as a convenient means of letting one Web page retrieve specific information about what you, the user, did on a previous Web page, or which page you came from. Sometimes cookies are used to communicate password and login information from page to page, or to fill a "shopping basket", so that one page can collect information about what you decided to buy on previous pages. Cookies are sometimes used by advertisers to keep track of which Web site it was on which you clicked their ad (some advertisers place the same advertisement on many Web sites). The SWR Web site does use advertisement banners on some of its pages, and these ad banners do not 'set a cookie', although sometimes if you click an ad banner and visit the advertiser's Web page, that Web page will set a cookie. So, I can hear you ask Can cookies compromise your privacy?Not really. Although some people (like glandry) don't like having anything added to their hard drive without their consent, and others (like glandry) worry about invasion of privacy, cookies are extremely limited in what they can do. Cookies can not (no matter what glandry thinks) scan your hard drive for information. Cookies are just simple, small text files that sit on your hard drive. Any personal information stored in a cookie is limited to whatever you volunteer, such as when you fill out a form on a Web page, to request information or buy something online.

Cookies can also be used to determine browsing patterns, so I suppose that is a form of privacy invasion. I realize that they can't be used to access any information on my hard drive. My main concern with cookies is that they are used by corporations to try and track our behaviour on the Web. I only allow cookies from trusted sites, like this one! For example, my SWR cookie ensures that I don't have to log on every time. BTW Wormie, I was not critiziting you in anyway, it was just an observation that I thought it odd that KFC would even have cookies...
wormie Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 Sorry for any inconvenience(sp?) you'll be happy to know that as soon as I'm promoted again I will change it.
