Wow... lay off the coffee guys. :) We are talking about Arcade games here. It's not worth getting worked up over this.

Or you edit your own post and delete it, leaving a msg that you deleted it... instead of making mods spend their time doing it for you ;)

Now to get back to the TOPIC.

I still have the highscore prob i explained in these 2 posts
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1532
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1533

2 installs on 2 forums, both smooth, 1 works 100% and one forks on highscore submit at random games/plays. So it's not the "i can never submit or do not have permission" prob that some users have and that has been tracked down and solved! It's the same problem 3 other users had and which none weren't able to track down (one fix with a vbb upgrade, one fix with that weird language change, but neither found out why it forked, and one who never was able to fix it)
Been looking at it for a week now, read the instructions over and over but still can't find it.
Could it be a conflict in php version or mysql version that causes this? Or the webserver software?

I'll prolly make a clean install of vbb once vbb3 gold is out, and apply the hack from scratch again, but since i can't figure the error out it's like the casino... gamble if that solves my problem. And even if it does i still won't know the casue hence another user faces the same situation of no solve if he faces this problem.

If anyone has any suggestion besides checking my code for the 10th time then please tell me!

<a href="http://forum.teamxbox.com" target="_blank">http://forum.teamxbox.com</a> - Over the weekend TXB will be upgrading to VB3 and is going to have this hack installed. They've got over 42,000 members.

What other big forums have VBArcade installed?

I find it incredibly asinine that you flaunt your "updates" and "honors" through a mailing list ("- v3 Arcade wins the first ever vBulletin.org Hack of the Month (for a vBulletin 3 hack) Thanks to everyone who voted! :) - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61385") - a mailing list that I didn't subscribe to, yet throughout this entire thread you offer no real support to people who need it. A third-grader could write a better install script than you have provided, but weeks have come and gone and you have failed to take initiative to correct something that should have never been released in the first place.

Reading through your posts, both here and at your site, it seems to me that you have created this hack not to provide a service to the vB community, but to make a name for yourself. When an author of a hack agrees to offer support, he obligates himself to address issues vB users have with the hack. If you don't want to offer support, that's fine... but don't be one of those "over-worked and under-appreciated" programmers who thinks the whole community should lick his ballz just because he "said so." If such a number of webmasters, people who obviously are somewhat html/php savvy, are having problems with your instructions, you may want to reconsider how clear your instructions are.

"Given that..." if it's fame that you're seeking, you may want to consider an attitude check as yours is one of the most childish and arrogant ones I've seen on the net in a while. If you genuinely want to offer something to the vB community, you need to learn that your way isn't always the right way and listen to the people who are using your hack. Even if you don't take their suggestions to heart, there's no need to be a prick about it. - "Doug, you haven't installed it properly then." I'm sure Doug appreciates the support. :disappointed:

Nikodemeus, let me quote Doug's original post:

Any help would be great as my forum will not load. :(

You already know my response. Now Doug's latest post:

People simply don't follow the instructions properly. By providing support for this hack, am I expected to check through everyone's installation line by line, looking for mistakes? In the majority of cases, people fix their own problems by double checking things - there's nothing I can do. But I recognise those who have geniune problems, and try to help them the best I can.

You were sent the email because you agreed to it when you registered on the site. Let me know if you want me to show you how to disable it, I'll write a tutorial with big pictures just for you. (How's that for tech support?)

And I think that's about it. Sorry Erwin, I felt I had to respond at least once on this.
Hopefully we won't have to put up with any more posts from this kid... :rolleyes:

If you could do that, I'd appreciate it.

I get that screen when i have more than 1 arcade page open, could that be the problem here?

MAJOR PROBLEM!!

Scores have stopped uploading!

When users click on submit score, it sends them straight back to the arcade homepage!!

Any ideas what could have caused this?

Thanks

It's the first time I've every heard of this happening. Have you made any code changes recently or altered permissions?
