Heh, I'm smooth :p.

You just want my hack released don't you :ninja:

I would surely check it, heh.
It would look a lot better + it helps in HotM ;)

You install and post horny bastard! PERVERT!

Heh. :D

Who is running a "Pirate Board" ???? :ninja: :surprised:

Yes, exactly, because this user has once installed the hack. If he likes the hack or not isn't the point.

I did not ask Xenon about this. He told this in the above mentioned thread that he would speak to Chen and Erwin.

THX Revan. Other good points "against" linking to vb.org ;)

Thanks for your agreement Deaths ;)


@all: This thread has been started to get tips on running a german speaking hack support forum AND NOT on getting an install button included within vbhacks-germany ;)

Are you the "general public"????

Erm hm. If you think that my recongnition of the problems with getting the install function to count on vBorg was an argument for not linking to vBorg, then... meh I will keep my comments to myself... (they would probably be censored anyways)

I agree with Zachery.


IMO, it's a good idea to translate hacks for customers who don't understand english, but support isn't that easy when you are not the coder of the hack.

On vbulletin-fr (just an example, don't want to discuss about our site) we publish translated hacks (with permission of course) and I noticed that it's a bit difficult to help people (especially when there are only two coders in the team). Of course we translate hacks which seem to be bugs-free but it's not always the case. I'm not the author of this site, but I think I will remove in the future many hacks in order to be more efficient

@Hellraider.

Maybe you should ask german coder first and BTW create a german vb hack community which wouldn't be dependant of vb.org. There are many german coders (more than french I suppose, they are too lazy), ask them :)

I think enough has been said, and we will just need to wait a while to see if vbhacks-germany will indeed become a Jelsoft sister company.

You guys may translate my /me, /you, /meid, /youid hack, and my BBcode for registered members only hack.

Exactly my feelings, too, Amy. ;)

Well actually this poll makes me laugh (sorry no offense).

First of all Amykhar say he voted not to have is hacks be translated, but the poster seem so confident about himself, he didn't even give this option. It is either now, or later. Never isn't an option.

Been following this thread and tried to keep my comment, but now i am posting anyway. ;)

The arguments given to why this step is needed, don't make to much sense to me, and is making the German people (falsly i think) look like uneducated. The Germans are getting a good education i think and all should be able to understand english and write it a bit. This is a community where people from all over the world are participating, for most of them English is not their first (or even second) language, and a lot of countries have unfortunatly much worse educational systems then germany. I see here people strugling and putting a lot of effort in trying to write a post in somehow understandable english. No matter of it is full of gramatic errors (like 99% of my posts :D) or spelling errors, i can have nothing but respect for these people trying, and i will try to answer them showing that respect, if needed answering twice or even more.

If you are someone serious working on running a webpage, a board on any other computer related product, you simply can't get by without some basic knowledge of english.

If you want to translate phrases in any of my hacks, go ahead and post the result here. Posting my hacks on other sites: no. And like mentioned before, real support can only be given by the coder himself.

Hmm think i better stop again, could go on too long about this. :D

It should be that way, but unfortunately I often see the contrary :(. Moreover, some coders sometimes write lots of abbreviations (and slang also) in their posts -> hard to understand if you only know english basis (for instance : BTW, IMO aso ...)

If you don't understand something, all you got to do is ask. I think most coders (and other members) are willing to explain or to rephrase if someone don't understand.
