Talk:Case modding

message: Many sites get deleted, WHY ? Links that founded casemodding and whatnot, all being deleted.
Spam? give me a break. These are sources of information, many of them are non profit .....
EDIT: not sure how else to talk to you all, i fusionmods under the sites which is a modding site with guides, and a case gallery/voting system and it keeps getting removed i dont know why, but i do find it pretty stupid since it is a valid resource and if you scanned the forum you would see that that site is completly dedicated to the modders there.
/reply to above mention: Thanks for some recognition. It's not to easy being the small fish in a big pond. It's been a year since I hit this page and I'm really suprised that it looks just about identical. I've written some ideas in here about restructuring the page a bit with some better detail on modding. I'd love some stronger discussion on the topic so if anyone would want to hit me up, just name the forum and I'll be there.

thread_title:  Tapeware link? Relevant? How? 86 it. 

message: I guess I am guilty of the site promotion per the editor here. I have been modding for years, have been featured in a magazine, made mods for majors companies, and even given away a custom modded case with about $5000.00, and some one of a kind, hardware at QuakeCon. My site IS about modding and we have how-to, guides, and a forum about it. On staff we have some of the BEST modders know and they have been also featured in magazines. But I guess you have to be some one like Bit-Tech to be talked about...I am surprised that HardOCP is not mentioned here as they are far better than the stuffy brits at Bit-Tech, but hey that's just MHO.

thread_title:  I agree with the "Examples being deleted" statement

message: I want to do the right thing and get listed like Bit-Tech does, but how do I go about doing this? Who do I contact, do I make up my own page, do I have someone else do it? 
Does anyone even read this page that controls this section? Please contact me at mi-americanfreak at modders-inc.com
Thank you!70.190.152.226 18:18, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  So what do I have to do to get my site listed like Bit-Tech? 

message: A QUESTION ?????
Links to avoid: "9.Links to search engine and aggregated results pages."
How do case modding forums cross "links to avoid criteria number 9" ??????
They don't as far as I can see.
Anyone involved in actually undertaking this art is using forums for ideas, to show their work, to meet likeminded people. I think this article is sadly lacking in appropriate resource for people interested in the subject as a result.

replies: text: There has been another one added, #9 is now #10: "Links to social networking sites (such as MySpace), discussion forums or USENET."  I don't doubt that they are helpful for other case modders, but that's not the criteria that Wikipedia uses to determine which external links it displays. --TexasDex 00:34, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Case Modding Forums do not break "links to avoid #9" 

message: This fine article I ran across by accident. Though my second profession was consulting, I had no idea home-built computers had become an art. This is truly fascinating, as was the article. What I don't understand is 'did not cite any references or original sources', 'may contain original research', and 'its tone or style may not be appropriate'? What? Because the initial criticisms weren't signed, it's difficult to know whether they are referring to the current article; but, there appears criticism that external links were to old, initial web sites: aren't historical sources original sources? Does the article contain original research because the author has done some of this work himself? Finally, how the tone or style of the article cannot be exactly what the Wikipedia hopes for is beyond me.
The talk section reeks of spiteful jealousy. Could people please sign their criticisms: you can do this even now. Could you be very specific about your criticisms, such as proof why a website is undesirable (and it has to be un-historical to be this), why this is a poor representation of the subject, what exactly is missing or misrepresented, ... you get the picture.

thread_title:  What is wrong with this article? 

message: Lots of garbage links, adding of foreign sites and whatnot.
The article should be locked for anonymous edits and against abuse.......  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.162.211.223 (talk) 01:07, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article should be locked for anonymous editors! 

message: I think a good approach would be a bit more indepth response to the types of modding. The types of mods listed are pretty poor in my opinion and should cover more in the range of, Case modding, Case Fabrication, painting, detailing (metalwork/fabrication, but not a full case fabrication), cooling, electronics (such as custom wiring, switches, and char lcds), so fourth. Commonly with modding you usually have over clocking as well. Since modding isn't exclusive to the hardware I feel like this is something that should be covered as well.
I think another direction that might be worth looking into would be talking about some of the larger names in the modding world like sheldog, americanfreak, and even deathstarchris. These guys (and a good number of others) have really shown off what modding can yeild. I know that sheldog is the one that got me into modding initially and they've all inspired a ton of mods with their mods. They're really raised the bar and i think it'd make more sense to talk about them then a few sites.
As far as the origional sites I think they should be shown by category they are more relevant to the mods. Of course bit-tech would hit the best all-round category, but some of the other sites out there don't get any props. Just becayse you were on the scene first doesn't mean you do it the best.

thread_title:  Another Answer to Redo this page 

message: The article needs a picture of the good old classic case with a window mode and some lights to demonstrate the beauty of case modding!
:Done.  It's a stock case, and a rather common one at that, but it has a window, light-up fans, stealthed drives, and all the rest.  If anybody has anything cooler, let them add it. --TexasDex 19:04, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rewrite: Types Of Case Mods - subsection: 'Case Building' 

message: "Common modifications" and "Types of case mods" are the same and should be merged. Pol098 (talk) 14:51, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sections need merging 

message: The implementing of fauna/flora seems to be useful aswell in casemodding; one particular organisation doing this is The Biomodd community. The first biomodd's however seem to have little merit to improving the computer as a whole; they just extract heat which is used to make the plants grow faster. However, when liquid cooling is integrated, I think it is possible to have the plants/possible fauna (ie microorganisms, ...) extract heat allot faster; and perhaps it's also possible to have nutrients inside the water for the cooling, rather than using distilled water. Perhaps someone can look up the specifics of the latest biomodds, and write a section about usefull biomodds for case modding.

thread_title:  New topics 

message: In the article Enthusiast computing #Case, power supply, cooling, and other case accessories there is an image, whose text mentions "tempered glass".
In the article Tempered glass #Uses there is a bullet which mentions computers and could and should be linked (back) to both of these computer articles:
* Enthusiast computing #Case, power supply, cooling, and other case accessories and
* Case modding #Common modifications.
Problem:
In both of these articles' sections there are bullets.
But bullets can not be a target of a link (without having to first place an anchor).
Although I'm a great friend of bullets, in this case I see above dis-advantage and another one:
The headers do NOT appear in the table of content (toc),although these chapters in "Case modding" are worth to appear in it's toc.
This is, why I consider it better to change the representation of these chapters from "list bullet" to "chapter" type - which I shall change right away.
