Can't say its a good idea to be "paying" your community to be a part of it. But that's just my opinion.

What I can say, is this Mod has a lot of 3rd party support... ie... There are other Mods in which develop or include add-ons for this mod, with their word. Also Phalynx who makes this... Puts so much time and effort into this mod & makes a strong point to address many questions and concerns... That I'm often surprised this is free (but very deeply thankful for it).

I assure you, starting a new forum, and not offering something in return,
you will clearly have an empty forum, members like to be around
activity, and activity seems to draw them in...no activity, no members,
no members, no member posting, crap runs down hill....a forum will
not grow itself...and people generally do not want to particiate on a new forum.

Are the points still on 1? It seems the cron is not running to collect points. Please check if the vBExperience Cron has run.

Thanks for confirmation.


vBExperience is awakening the "collect them all" animal in all of us. User can collect points and is getting rewared with Achievements, level ups, promotions. It collects also data for existing forums. For the beginning you will have to make a start by asking all your friends to post something. You need also a topic that is interesting. For example, just another offtopic forum will not grow as there are too many of them. Unique content is the key.

thats the animal i'm wanting to put in my forum, exactly! we are a star wars collecting community and i want a way they can 'collect' something on the site. i love this mod and i truly am appreciative of such a great mod it has in phalynx! :)

writing unique content is not an issue. But it is rare to find any forum
that is unique that has not already been started, and if that is the case
you are telling people, dont even bother setting up a forum since
there are others already here, and ahead of you....

So your saying:

DP is already here, so why waste time setting up a webmaster forum.
WF is already here, so why waste time setup up a Internet Marketing forum.

Hell, I think I am just going to quit my job, I am never going to
make manager, why should I when that other guy has more expeience and a degree.

I am just going to give up because another forum may have a few years experience over my forum.

why even bother living at this point...

Hello, I would like to remove the tab which got installed automatically on the navbar from this MOD. Which template I need edit to remove and how.

Many thanks for an excellent MOD.

Hey Phalynx,

I believe I have a pretty nice idea for your mod... as a user of your mod for over a year, I really appreciate it and it helps boost our forum activity BY A LOT!

My suggestion:

Could you make it so that lets say if a user refers someone else they get a point (already done). But if that user refers someone else afterwards, the original referrer gets a point.

Example:
Bob refers John, Bob gets a point.
John refers Adam, Bob and John get a point.

Make it so that maybe as the tree gets further generations (if you get my visual concept), the further the user is away, the less points an original user will get. This would be made so that the original user wouldn't accumulate TOO much points.

Another idea using the same concept, is the option to give them points based on their points, actions etc..

We would have the option to check off what actions a "Tree grower" would receive points for and how much.

What you think? This would make members VERY happy on our boards, because now other people are doing the job of earning points for them, and in return, the forums thrive in activity.

Great!!! But why I don't get level up? All my members need 0 points...

Hi does this work with 4.1.0 patch 2?

I currently have VBexperience 4 installed but I think its version 4.0.4

If there is an update... how do I do the update?

Thanks :-)

Danny

You can remote it via settings.

Such a feature comes with vBExperience 4.1, as there is someone who paid for this. But it's not 100% the same. You get a defined amount, f.e. 5% of the new users points additionally to your own points.


You need to install a level file, see readme for installation.


vBExperience 4.0.4 works great with vBulletin 4.1 PL2
