1 newbie question:
what about Ajax Technology and Bandwidth ?
using Ajax Technology and hacks that based on AJAX will Increase BW Usage on my board?

Moosa, it doesn't have anything to do with the code you just posted. Also, I don't have "Username Management Addon - Latest Username Changes on Forumhome" by Marco.

Unfortunatly, I don't have alot of knowledge about AJAX, but from what I heard is if you have so much AJAX Technology on the site, it can increase your Server Load.

again, these AJAX mods "sound" good, but you won't catch me even testing this script becuase I know the CPU usage will go out the roof... good concept though

I think there should be some study and modification on AJAX its self before these mods are released

sounds like AJAX Technology based on JS and JS increase CPU usage

Oh give the guy a break! He released something and he could not have done it and keep it to himself. You know, what you are doing is nothing but discouraging to new coders. If you don't need it don't install it but please respect his work and the members who need it and don't put him off like that.
Advice is good but you've gotten too far away from advice and are actually moaning about his release!
At least he released something and given back to the community. Have you?

Personally, I think it's an awsome idea and I would install if the number also changed... :)

Perfectly said :)

I would normally agree, but in this case AJAX is simply not a good solution for this type of mod. Install the hack if you like, but I guarantee you will be back asking why your server load is spiked through the roof. This isn't a bash towards the hack creator, just a simple observation from a programmer. AJAX is great, but people get carried away with it without understanding the technology behind it.

Every time the WOL table is pulled from the database it queries the databse table which in turn places a load on the server. Normally this isn't a big issue because the query is only done on a page refresh. With this hack the table is queried by everyone every few seconds. I hope you can understand why this is a bad idea. It's the same problem everyone has with the vbPager hack. This may work fine if you have VERY small forum that isn't very active, but it WILL kill an active forum.

sorry mates ! i just wanna report this bugs cause this hack is in beta stage

really nice work, BRAVO !

at least already installed this hack on my board and thanks to dear coder :)

"A simple observation from a programmer", huh? At least the guy is releasing his work not keeping it to himself like others *cough*. One post was enough to warn people. I don't see the need for dozens of such posts that have nothing new to say but only discourage him. I wish my first hack was like that.

I understand where 99SIVTEC is coming from. I don't have much experience with AJAX, thus proving to him that I did't really know what AJAX does to the server if used improperly. Atleast 99SIVTEC actually left a comment I can work with and not insulting my work.
