Over the years I have struggled to define the word asset through many people whom I employed through friendship to help me flourish this community or website...

The site itself has many possibilities through the amount of time taken with to build up valuable resources and combine them into one space... The problem is the idea of what was popular in my mind isn't the idea of what is popular in other people's minds usually brought on by oversight on my behalf to draw people near to something I cherish so much...

I have over time developed a sense of knowledge that your closest allies don't usually have a clue what your doing or have the care to help you unless you seem helpless or you did something clever to ascertain their amusement! Usually it's some small meager thing you did like a post or some idea someone had about creating some long drawn out story where everyone adds on to it for the sake of boredom...

Just there is never anything ever lasting because as it is the mind has limits and so does the idea of original thought! As I have perceived the community issue I had always leaned towards not leaning on anything! The choices I have chosen to build with are the old grey matter questions that most forum owners develop over time and that is to keep everything and to build from there and never allow anything to be deleted as it was something that someone thought of at a time they will come to remember but maybe not until they revisit your dark, cold forums where those thoughts they had first thought of grew and grew...

Ok starting to feel like Edgar Allan Poe. The idea I wanted from the start was to have it flourish with many people and it has over the years we have had tons of people visit and say a few words and express themselves... Sometimes the expressions where not always welcomed and well we had to remove a few ungodly posts to keep things PG13 sort of speaks...

The idea that everything should be free was the intent in the beginning when I was using PHPNuke which was basically PHPBB with side bars and some sort of api for people to build modules with! It slowly died away as the original creator got lazy and then people started creating their own takes with better security and eventually many new versions flourished... Then came the module wars and the fully packed wars where people were creating new modules and wanting donations for their creations and same with the themes and some people created these awesome pre-edited versions of Nuke... I remember spending a lot of money and time buying modules and themes from people and the countless donations I have given away to all of those amazing coders and themers... All my attention was basically focused on the website not the community I wanted to be in the website...

Well it came a time I decided I was done with all the dealings with modified PHPNuke and anything made from it's design and decided to purchase a complete publishing suit from a vary reputable company who where behind many popular professional based company's and wanted it to host my community CozWorld aka CoZmicShReddeR.com and then of course I really started spending bigger bucks and now about 3k into this new system for all its worth with modules, themes, copyright fees, and hosting it fees which isn't bad since I am hosting it on my own dedicated server begins to add up over time...

In the vary beginning the whole thing started as a simple website design then turned into something serious over time and for I am proud of not just what I have accomplished but proud of the people I know whom I can talk to and who can help me at any moment in time but these are usually people no one in my community will ever meet nor do they care to meet anyone I know as they are more or less business partners people whom accept fees for their efforts and I am always willing to contribute the founds as long as they can do what I ask...

I don't expect to win a million dollars but I want to feel like I spent a million dollars as it goes to me in the end if you cannot please yourself who can you please!

Today the website has all the idea from the old days like the server blocks, Clan Roster, Calender, Arcade, PhotoGallery, Download Section and project Section... The new Stuff we have today are the Blogs, XBOX info, Gamers blocks, Facebook simple login, Steam Login and that's about all that is new but everything on the website could be considered highly professional work as it is written by some of the best coders money can buy!

Occasionally I will have something frumpy on the website but it gets removed really fast or fixed asap but once and a while something slips through unnoticed and that where it helps to have people messing around on the website to make sure they can access their accounts or make posts...

All in all I love what I put into this website and hope to see more people enjoy it over time.....

As it is I am always seeking skilled dedicated people to help with this website/community... And always welcoming new people to join in a discussion or anything else for that matter....
