Editing Talk:Thorax Corporation

{{featuredarticle}}
I really think we need to extend this page. We should transcript every page and give this it's own category. Maybe it should be the next big project we do after Peasant's Quest is done.-----[[User:RatherAnnoying]]

What about the profanity though? There are usages of "What the h*ll" and "a**" on Thorax Corp. This violates the profanity margins of the H*R Wiki. --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
:Hm... good point. Hell isn't such a big deal, seeing as it's been said before in the HSR universe. I think that a** isn't '''that''' big of a deal. If it's been said by TBC, it's ok on the wiki, I think. {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 00:30, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
::Except that transcribing every page would then bring up the same copyright concerns as we had before. Since the page is mostly text, it's just a simple copy-paste, unlike writing a transcript for a 'toon. See also: [[Talk:Strong Sad's Lament]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
:::It's not "hell" alone that's a problem. It's when it's being used as an exclamation. '''THAT''' doesn't appear in the H*R universe. And as [[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] mentioned, the copyright concerns are a problem, so overall, I think that we '''shouldn't''' transcribe Thorax Corp. --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
::::Oh, and I also saw usage of "p*ss" on Thorax. --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
:::::Hm... you have a point. This may not have appropriate language, and there can be copyright problems. All the same, it wouldnt be the wiki way if we didn't transcribe it. Perhaps we ask TBC if we could transcribe it and <small>censor out</small><small><small> the bad words.... </small></small> Never mind. I'm not very good at this kinda thing. (Especially since I'm only 12). {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 00:50, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
::::::I'm not very good at it either. Is there anyone here who '''IS''' good at this type of stuff? --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
:::::::Hmmm... maybe we could discuss this on the forum with the others. --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
*spits out coffee* Bubsty's only ''12??!?!?!!?!'' Anyway, we could just put a warning on it, and do what we did on [[l33t Interview|this page.]] {{User:Salty/sig}} 05:39, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
**Hey! That's a pretty good idea! However, the copyright stuff is still an issue. --[[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]
***Well, we could also put one o' these: {{[[Template:web-screenshot]]}} except change it from screenshot to.... page. {{User:Salty/sig}} 06:11, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
****I'm not sure that'd fall under fair use, though, even with the template. It's only fair use if it doesn't ''replace'' the actual site. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
This site doens't fall under the domain ''homestarrunner.com''. The one page we have is sufficient. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:20, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
*Yeah, the page we already have is enough. We really don't need more. &mdash; [[User:Ian911299|Ian911299]]

== Gent Identity ==

Who knows who Gent really is?  Is he Matt or Mike?  Is he someone famous?  Who is this blurred man?  Deos anyone know?  I'm really curious.
[[User:Chess Cheese|Chess Cheese]]
:Actually, to me it looks a lot like Matthew Perry. But then again I'm just a weirdo. [[User:Einoo|Einoo]] 22:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== Domain Business? ==

Where does it say Thorax Corp is a domain name business?  It looks like it's only for stardome issues.  (Of course, the site is full of links.  It's not easy finding them all.)

[[User:THS Cheesia|THS Cheesia]] 23:32, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
:So... uhhh... why won't anyone answer?  [[User:THS Cheesia|THS Cheesia]] 19:25, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
::Probably because, so far at least, no one knows the answer off the top of their head, and they're not willing to go look for it. Stop {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Talk:Thorax_Corporation&diff=429577&oldid=429063 yelling}}. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:33, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
:::I would not at all state them as domain owners, and calling them "stereotypical domain owners." The Brothers Chaps probably put down no actual hint (besides "offering total stardom") of what they do just to make it funny. I say that they're not "stereotypical" because there not aggressive for the most part, and that they are purposely portrayed as stupid, because, well, it makes it funny. To be honest, I do not find any relevance in the current description we have in the article. --[[Special:Contributions/71.157.173.166|71.157.173.166]] 22:00, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
::::If there are no comments, I'll just change it to "They are a fictional crudely run company offering 'Total Stardom.'"

== Leg Delabor ==

Why is his image a broken JPEG? {{User:Dagoth/sig}} 06:27, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
:Why not? It's kinda funny. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 06:30, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

== Am I doing this right? ==

Okay, before I go too far and before all the hard work I've been doing goes to waste, I'm restructuring to get all external links in with some alt attribute values thrown in. Is this good so far? Is this necessary? All of these are there real values, since you're probably wondering.

'''Removed. See below for revision. You can see the old one [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Talk:Thorax_Corporation&oldid=602909 here].'''

--[[Special:Contributions/68.94.95.107|68.94.95.107]] 22:55, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
:Oh yeah, and I remembered there was some article that had a bunch of external links organized in columns with page titles...anyone remember what that one was I thought it was? I thought it was The King of Town DVD or Yearbook, but that isn't it. --[[Special:Contributions/68.94.95.107|68.94.95.107]] 00:07, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Today, for the past hour or less, I've finished it for the heck of it. Can we put it in the article, or do I need to improve it?

'''Removed. It's now on the page with some improvements. You can see this one [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Talk:Thorax_Corporation&oldid=604435 here].'''

Can we use it? --[[Special:Contributions/75.41.212.228|75.41.212.228]] 21:25, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
:You know, I looked at the [[Goats]] article thinking about replacing it with the "The Mythological Goat of Success" image with it's alternative text, and it could have been helpful to have it already in the database (well, I don't mean by in this talk page). Also, looking at an [[Talk:Thorax Corporation#Domain Business?|earlier note of]], "(Of course, the site is full of links. It's not easy finding them all.)", I think this will be a good contribution. If no one has any comments, I'll be adding this to the page in an hour, and adding a "<nowiki>{{uncensored}}</nowiki>" at the top of the page, due to the language of some of the alternative texts and page titles. Or maybe I'll just make a non-templated warning and add that to the top of the page. Yeah, that sounds better. --[[Special:Contributions/75.41.212.228|75.41.212.228]] 19:00, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

== Thorax Template? ==

Just so that we have all of it documented on the Wiki, should we make a page for each page, pop-up, etc.? I would like to transcribe the content of all the site, however, getting it all on one page would make it a little cluttered. I understand the lack of attention brought to Thorax due to its swearing, but I think we should allow an individual page for each page. --[[Special:Contributions/75.41.212.228|75.41.212.228]] 20:38, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
:Really, anybody? Since it's crawling with links, it would be helpful to document the pages. Not to mention it would make listing the references a lot more easier when doing it with separate pages and not as a whole. And it would be easier on Running Gag pages to link a Thorax Page to it's own article instead of either linking the page in a running gag's article, or leave the user to just search for it in that giant External Links section I had to make. --[[Special:Contributions/71.157.173.166|71.157.173.166]] 18:19, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

== Content Warning Removal ==

I beg to differ on the removal of the content warning you did, It's Dot Com. I covered alternate texts and page names, which include "WHO THE HELL DOES THIS GUY THINK HE IS?", and "sex appeal". "HORAX" could also be taken the wrong way. --[[Special:Contributions/70.253.165.204|70.253.165.204]] 02:46, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
::That, and this should be considered an uncensored article, in which I made that template of use. It will put Thorax in the uncensored articles category.
:::I've also documented the PRODUKTs now. No, not to get <nowiki>{{coverscontent}}</nowiki> back up there, its just a coincidence that I found it helpful to have it in the database while this was going on. Since the PRODUKTs contain mild swearing, we need it more than earlier. --[[Special:Contributions/70.253.165.204|70.253.165.204]] 03:27, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
::::Okay, let me mentioned all things mentioned on the page here:
::::*"HORAX" (could be taken the wrong way)
::::*"sex appeal"
::::*"[...] that royal 'ass'"
::::*"In fact, we're so pissed off we can hardly even stand it!"
::::*And, "WHO THE HELL DOES THIS GUY THINK HE IS?"
::::This site deals with a nature that is both humorous and offensive in language. I see no need why we shouldn't have the template on the page. Anyone agree or disagree? --[[Special:Contributions/75.5.176.233|75.5.176.233]] 22:41, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

== Leg and Strong Sad ==

Leg and Strong Sad seem to have much in common. They both have two brothers who seem to dislike them greatly and they are both kinda abused. I think this is note worthy. Any opinions? Also, at one point it says that Leg was locked in the toilet. This seems close enough to Strong Sad being locked in the bathtub to be mentioned.  -[[User:Philip8o|Philip8o]]
:Which page said he was locked in a toilet? --[[Special:Contributions/69.150.85.66|69.150.85.66]] 02:03, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

== Leg Delabor ==

I noticed that Leg Delabor's 'Living the Hi-Life' banner led to a broken link.
www.thoraxcorp.com/www.delabor.com currently shows a 404 error on my IE, but my eye caught the end of the URL. I typed in www.delabor.com and found this weird flash (animation?) of a white ball bouncing left and right with a red backround. Somethin' didn't seem right, so I left before it became a screamer. Does anyone else know WHAT this is? (by Corruption while not logged in)
:I've come across this link before when I came across some mention of "www.delabor.com". They are probably not related. I mean, the foot note under the Flash is Spanish! A reference to El Delabor? Probably not. --[[Special:Contributions/69.150.85.66|69.150.85.66]] 02:00, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

== Index of /mp3s ==

Anyone seen this before?  http://www.thoraxcorp.com/mp3s/  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 04:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
: Holy crap, I think you found Matt's old rap songs he recorded when he was in high school! He mentioned "All Star Rapper" in the DVD commentary for Rampage. And if you listen to those Pavement-ish songs in the TNY section, it totally sounds like his voice. 
== Simple Mail ==

I found this http://www.thoraxcorp.com/simplemail.mv which used to look like this http://web.archive.org/web/20060110174259/http://www.thoraxcorp.com/simplemail.mv ... {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 04:41, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

== More Total Stardom ==

Thanks to the Way Back Machine, I've found another former page of Thorax.com.  http://web.archive.org/web/20020502092745/thoraxcorp.com/stardomcom.html  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 04:53, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
:I'm surprised that no one's decided to add this, and the index of MP3s, to the article. I will add them to the External Links section under a new subsection. I think their notable, but not the SimpleMail page. It appears that it was a standard Yahoo! Website Services feature, so I don't see it's notability. --[[Special:Contributions/76.224.216.122|76.224.216.122]] 17:10, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

== No "join" page ==

The form on the join page/what happens isn't mentioned, that I see. Maybe it's just not important?
