[DemiNeo0101]

I've been woundering if this was gona come out for a long time. I think this would totaly rock on a forum. I know this has probley been asked a few times if somone can make it, but i havn't seen it on vb.org yet so.

If you guys need help template wise i'll be happy to help.

Sorry Demi but alot of us who have created the Battle System don't want to release it as a hack for fear of every forum having a Battle System. Plus, these systems are huge. Probably bigger than any hack ever put on vB.org. I'm really sure that there will not be a release any time soon. Sorry again.

People who have created battle systems and dont want to release them arent releasing them. Why? Everyone always says that they "Dont want every forum to have one" Thats plain selfish. Eevery Vbulletin is the same in many ways, Did the creator of Vbulletin decide that he "Didnt want everyone to have one?" No, he decided to release it.
The same with PHPBB. If i had the PHP Knowlage, rest assured i would release this hack. To put it simply People with the hack dont want to release it because they want it all to themselves. This makes me mad, i dont have any need for the hack myself, i am just puzzled as to why people are being selfish with such a hack. Anyways its pretty kind of Neo to work on a hack for all those RP board heads. At least someones a bit kinder than most.

If I made this hack I would make it an attachment on my own site and make people have to join to download it, that way you actually get something out of releasing it. Eventually people would start using AIM or their own site to let their friends have it instead of going to your site but for the first few weeks you would be rolling in tons of members. But hey I didn't make it so whatever, anyways, Neo any details on your battle system?

[Riddel]

Go neo! you rock!

[Point Blank]

I'd like to see it made. All the other selfish people won't put it out.

Its a Damn Shame, this would make an awesome addition to any community, Im Glad there is one beeing tested in the Beta Section.

There is actually one in Beta progress. Check the first four/five top threads in the Beta releases forum.
As for the bulletin board admins being selfish?
They did take their time and effort to code it, and they aren't obliged to 'share' it with anyone if it's their own.
Would you share your TV set/computer with someone off the street? Unlikely.
However, greed can be interpreted from this, if people don't have the knowledge of coding. Coding is a skill which requires YEARS of patience. But hey, I agree, it can be a tad greedy ;).
afterlab's battle system for example: It's unique. Nobody else uses it. If everyone used it, there'd be less chance of users visiting his board (notice to afterlab: When are you going to bring it back, me and my 3 mates are missing the fun *crys*).
Anyway, back to the point.
If the bulletin board owners want to share them, you should be very grateful, because they could just as easily charge cash for it.
If Neo complete's his, and it's free, he'll get the world of credit for it :).
Battle systems for vBulletin are like trying to fight for the best sweet in the tin of Roses. So much competition.
Don't let it get to you, I'm positive one day some hacker will release a wonderful copy.
Bless them when they do :D.
