Best Multi-User CMS Platform?
Submitted

Deathnerd writes "I'm a guy with a great idea (aren't we all?). Unfortunately, my idea requires the participation and submissions of others in order to work. I'm looking for a CMS platform that will enable users to create an account if they so desire, post submissions (an anonymous option is mandatory), and comment on posts that have been made. I have looked at things like WordPress (not much luck there), Joomla! (really didn't like it), and Drupal (I liked this one best, but couldn't find a multi-user solution for it). I'd prefer to have a FOSS solution, but I'm willing to pay for one as well.
Thanks Slashdotters!"

I've used idealist.org and Volunteer Match for listing opportunities at some of the nonprofits I've worked at. I suggest looking there.

Since you're already on a Mac, and may already have Snow Leopard, the text substitution would probably be the easiest and least expensive way to go.

Reading personal attack into regular language is textbook paranoia.
And therefore it is right at home on Slashdot.
On a more serious note, I live in an urban high-rise apartment building and get terrible Wi-Fi reception. While baby monitors and other 2.4 GHz devices may share some of the blame, my hunch is it has more to do with the 30-or-so Wi-Fi networks my computer can see (and however many it can't). I just switched most of my home network to olde fashioned wires, and things are running much more smoothly.

I know this is Slashdot, but at least try to write a decent summary. I had to read the article just to be able to tell what the summary was trying to say.

On two trips, we paused the game for a moment and walked away to do something. A week later, I come home from my trip and find the game still paused. Whoops! This works great... until you try to use the system again. Nasty error code and a $100 fix from Nintendo to get the drive to work again.
Don't leave the disc on!
Or just lay off the 10,080 minute movies.

Some people don't like to have half a dozen devices connected to their TV's if one device is capable of performing most of those tasks.
Certainly no one on Slashdot! That's grounds for having your geek card revoked.
