Thats not true, it was always said to be free, and the final service, Zoints, IS free. Hopefully it is still there and just changed permissions while the admins "review" it, because I want to go over that thread and make a large list of everything us, VB.org members, discussed and said we wanted in that hack so that I can compile a list of features that we can talk about when making our own VBspaces hack the way it was supposed to be done.

If an admin can respond to this, please do!

Oh, I am not blaming Danny for everything. Far from it. Danny started the thread, but he became part of the Zoints project, so he isn't the sole person incharge. As you said, he is a coder (and a superb one at that) who is just following orders.

I had a LOOOOONG MSN chat with the new owner/founder of Zoints tonight (in the past 3 hours). He answered a lot of my questions and has made it clear the direction and vision that Zoints is headed as well as talk about the publically released version. I will not make any official statement on what we discussed in the chat, as David (whom we know as "d1414") said he would make an public statement of his own when the time feels right.

If you'd like to chat, just PM me.

I'll be checking this thread daily. Keep updating us VBintense on any progress! :D

Instead of threadjacking, why dont you PM an admin instead of waiting for one to fall in your lap?

vBintense 06-10-2006 11:27 AM

I wish people would take the time to read a thread before posting.

We are working on something and all we ask is no money talk or talk of the other that has been asked not to be discussed on vb.org.

Perhaps it is time for admin/mod to close this thread and we will post again once we are ready to release a beta.

We actually need a discussion thread for suggestions and updates, let's just keep it at that ;)

toolblast 06-10-2006 05:17 PM

Sorry VBintense for bringing up talk about "other" stuff.

Just remember though, I think we'll need to talk about VBspaces a bit if we are wanting to build something similar to it. I wish that thread was still up so we could make a dream feature list and then pick and choose from it what we really want to create.

*edited*

Thanks.

Have you started work on anything as of yet VBintense? If so please share info on what you have started :)

Note to all: As VBintense said, this isn't a thread for ranting about VBspaces or Zoints, so after this post do not discuss Zoints at all. And secondly, only discuss VBspaces if you are trying to resurrect discussion over a feature that was discussed in the old thread.

Thanks.



vbiIntense also stated " I wish people would take the time to read a thread before posting. " If you do like he asked you will find your answers.

Sorry if this comes off harsh, but apparently you have not taken the time to read this thread and have completely missed the point of it.

Please re-read the thread, or refrain from positing in it, I don't feel like having to repeat things over and over. I would really have to close this thread and ruin it for others because someone is too lazy.

I say we do...no point of having a thread if we cant even touch it yet stangsta.

toolblast 06-10-2006 06:25 PM

Hi Stangsta, Hi SuperFly.

I just took the time to read through the entire thread. Looks like some good things are planned between Stangsta and VBintense.

I would really like to contribute to the project, whether its building a template interface for it, or just providing ideas and input. Please PM me.

As for not reading the thread, I had just found this thread after looking into another hack, and so I didn't have time to read it all through yet.

Thanks.

Its all good man, again...nothing personal.

Right now, there are ALOT of GREAT ideas that have been put on the table. But we can't get ahead of ourselves either. Right now, the only thing we may need is an additional EXPERIENCED coder that can possibly take some of the workload off of vbintense. Once we get to the point where there is beta code to play with, we can move forward. Until then, we all (including myself) need to be patient.

toolblast 06-10-2006 06:48 PM

Agreed. If you need any help with design or feedback, PM me or email me at chadfullerton@gmail.com

I think we need to not turn this thread into what became of the VBspaces thread. Instead, we need to wait for you guys to put together a working public beta, and then after that we can start to give good/bad feedback.

With patience comes reward :)

Keep in touch, I'll keep this thread on notify.

Benj 06-12-2006 06:41 PM

suggestion maybe some kind of intergration with vB Pager so we can have an instant messenger kind of feature... ive read over this thread just to make something clear. Is this planned to be a kind of module system in which people or coders can add modules. If so i take removing features would be a case of removing modules ;)

thanks for your work guys :D

Yes, I think they have thought of implementing a module add-on system :)

toolblast 06-12-2006 07:10 PM

My impression was it would be modular. I definately think that would be a good idea for developers to build their own modules.

vBintense 06-12-2006 10:03 PM

It is modular , this is something for best of the community. So once we are done we can allow others to add to it if it is something we do not feel the need for.

I got a bit done this weekend, not as much as I would have liked but the lawn needed mowed and since none here did it for me I was forced to :)

toolblast 06-13-2006 12:11 AM

hahaha. The lawn gets first priority ;)

Glad you could work on it :-) When you can a chance could you post a "latest completed features" list or something of that nature? It makes me happy to see progress hehe. :)

And if you need any help just holla

Same, updates are fun haha :p

mightyb 06-14-2006 03:18 PM

Yea, id rather see something along the lines of: 1 button added

Than silence :D

FlyBoy73 06-14-2006 05:14 PM

You guys are great... ;) Take your time and get it done right. Just please no one year time line for the first release.. :p

Hehe, my thought exactly. A little progress report each week like:

WEEK OF JUNE 14th
------------------
- Got a custom profile template made
- Got avatars working
- Bought myself a nice coffee and donut today

Anything would be nice :)

KevNJ 06-14-2006 05:52 PM

guys remember.. they are doing this for free.. and have real jobs to pay the bills......they said they would post on anything thats significant.. until then assume its being coded hour here and an hour there...

I didn't see a reply to this. Wanted to make sure it didn't go unnoticed thanks.

toolblast 06-14-2006 06:09 PM

Hmm, I didn't see that post RealTalk. I am not sure if private messaging is within the scope of this project either.

KevNJ, yes we know this isn't a full time scripting project, we aren't expecting them to be working on this 24/7, so that is why a casual progress report would be nice whenever they feel it is useful to post one.

Thanks.

All that is, is a template modification. You could easily edit the template, add the appropriate width of the columns, add a few images here and there, then add a few div tags with your own classes, update your css file and you're there. It should take a few hours, but nothing to hard, just tedious.

Its not going to happen. Like I said, information will be reported when we feel there is something signifigant to report.

And remember, if another EXPERIENCED CODER wants to help speed the project along, that option is there, PM me if you are interested.

toolblast i name you ............ hahha sounds like some kinda pokamon call. I dunno toolblast said hes willing to help :D if i could code i would..... hey im good with photoshop i can make images / buttons :D

vBintense 06-15-2006 08:43 PM

Sorry if I have been silent, work is being done. But as stangsta said we are trying to keep it down to only updating now when something is worth saying.

I will next update when I feel it is ready for screen shots and such. That could be tomorrow or next week. The system is actually taking shape to the point I am happy.

toolblast 06-15-2006 08:54 PM

Well at least you said a screenshot update would be tomorrow or next week. Not... next year. Thats at least a hint that you are definately a good progress into the project to be able to show screenshots that are 'worth' showing and 'significant'. :)

vBIntense said and "I will next update when I feel it is ready for screen shots and such. That could be tomorrow or next week."

COULD! It does not mean it will be tomorrow or next week. Could be 2 weeks could be a month, could be longer. But the word here is could.

amykhar 06-16-2006 12:32 AM

The trick to this stuff is to never start a thread about a mod until you release the mod. ;)

I think that depends highly on your motives. ;)

Everyone should be patient. These things take time! I also think the coders shouldn't get everyone's hopes up without expecting them to act like this...

rice 06-16-2006 04:03 AM

I am new to this site and am just learning the system and vbulletin as well...i have to say, as a newbie, i love this thread simply because i think it's cool. not only am i really looking forward to the mod, i am somewhat watching little steps that are happening. i am starting to learn some coding, reading and learning, i just like to watch how the whole thing is being formed in this thread.

thanks,

rice

criscokid 06-16-2006 08:25 AM

I've just taken a look at SirAdrian's site and noticed he's been hard at work developing blog software that fully intergrates with vB. Since the vBSpace solution is going to be modular it looks like vB Blog (or whatever it's going to be called) will be a great complement and bring even more great features to end users.

I second that thought :D

What would be very useful is some sort of step by step guide then people can do it for themselves. A large portion of people on here don't have the knowledge or confidence to go 'tampering' with templates - to them the contents of a template is like trying to read a foreign language.

I don't see a problem with starting a thread just as long as you have the right intentions & don't give out false information. It's cool to keep people like myself updated so that we're not sitting there like "WTF is going on?"

GamerJunk.net 06-20-2006 05:54 PM

All I have to say is this is a very dumb idea when compared to Zoints.

So basically you want ever forum to have social networking capabilities which will spread the entire internet community thin. Each site will have it's own network, people will have to create multiple profiles and set one up on each site they visit? Retarded. Zoints networks everything into one profile for all the participating forums that has it. Why don't you use that solution rather than driving the social networking fad through the ground?

What's the difference between "social networking spread thin" and the thousands upon thousands of currently existing forums? MANY forums cater to very specific userbase and are not trying to compete with myspace. We want some of the features for our current members. You sound like a zoints salesman.

amykhar 06-20-2006 06:40 PM

If this thread turns into a Zoints debate, I will close it. The purpose of this thread is to discuss development of a profile page modification not to discuss a commercial mod.
