VB Support Group? LOL
 

Ok.... I've just learned how to install an add-on thingy through XML import. I did two already and I'm thrilled to death. But now I'm searching and searching for more things to put on my forum. I think I'm getting addicted. LOL Half the crap I'm installing I don't even need, it's just fun and it's not so mysterious anymore. LOL

I think I'm becoming a hack hag!

Is there a support group for this? LOL

Back to mod searching...:D

No one knows more about this than Bashy. Bashy should be the chairperson for this group..

Trust me on this, this is Bashy's site

LOL

Well hell I'm glad I'm not the only one with no life. I swear I think I've gained ten pounds today just eating chips, drinking Dr. Pepper and being a hack hag.

Wait until I learn how to upload things to the server. I'm not sure if my thighs can expand that much. :p

Well, on to November's goodies... Tee hee

Hi, I'm Dawn and I'm a hack addict!

Indeed, modifying your board can easily become VERY addicting once you figure things out! Just call me Bashy Jr.:D

After looking at your site I'm not sure you could be considered "Junior"! LOL It's a neck and neck race. :D

On a side note, I feel like a fox in the hen house even visiting that site. :cool: :p

LOL

Hi My name is Gabby and I'm a new member. OMG! I can't stop. I'm into August, page 31 and just installed another one.

I'll bring the donuts!

Well I went through all the pages.. Now what do I do with myself? LOL

I'm starting to twitch a bit. LOL

Hm, well I'll be darned. But it's a cute site, right?

Bad Boys, er, GUYS are welcome, too, ya know. Not much fun being a Bad Girl without them.;):D
Aww, cute name, Gabby!:)

Coffee is on me!:D

LMAO! Time for a break, GF!:D

Yes cute site, like fluffy kittens and baby seals. :D

I'm afraid I would ruin the fluffy carpet with my muddy boots and blood soaked hands; but thanks for the offer. LOL ;)

----

I do have to admit, I'm always looking for something good to add as well. It is addicting. :p

Hehe, common misconception, considering there's no language restraints and an adult area.;)

Hey, I was just saying, it's not a girls-only place.;)

Ok, now, let's not be hijacking Gabby's thread.

Where did she go? Oh, Gabby? Off playing with your new toys?:D

Another member I would like to nominate for this group would be Trackpads (forum). I haven't seen him for a few Months, but he has probably one of every modification (free and paid) you can get..

God I'm scaring myself now lol. I actually got a little miffed when my 16 year old came in an wanted dinner. Like I have time now. LOL

Hey I just figured out after a year of owning a forum, what BB means. All this time I'm thinking, what the hell is BBcode? I'm just lucky I know how to log in.

Oh Crap, now my cat's giving me a look...

Can't momma have a little fun?

Exactly how many hacks is excessive anyway? Don't they have more add-ons lying around some where?

Wow! None of mine are paid, just freebies from here.
LOL! I always do mine when the house is quiet, so I'm not interrupted, usually when I wake up.

Oh dear, your cat's bothering you, too? My one has been harassing me for dinner for the past hour...can't he see I'm busy?:D

I dunno. Some might think the amount I have is excessive, but I don't...I need them all!

HAHA Hack addict here to! ESPECIALLY payed mods. I have a weakness for those. :eek:

It becomes cumbersome after awhile. Updates become a nightmare and stuff breaks. HAHA You better find a 12 step program soon! LOL

Oh dear, your cat's bothering you, too? My one has been harassing me for dinner for the past hour...can't he see I'm busy?:D

LOL No kidding. How dare our families and pets need food and water when a new hack arrives? LOL

Ok I looked at the description of the forum and it says everything but vb crap soooo...

My boobs hurt, I need some lovin and I'm having serious hack withdrawals..

What's a girl gonna do?LOL

Where's my little black book:rolleyes:

I'm quite an addict myself... only I'm coding custom hacks. :P

So far my forum has 32 products installed and 6 of them are my own work, with 2 being massive. (RPG-based Store and Roleplay Character Manager).

I keep browsing the 3.8 forums to see what's new... in fact I may just do that now. :D

Becareful of adding to many addons. Some of them don't work with each other and they tend to crash a board. Some are also not properly coded and are bad for SEO. Others will actually run up your bandwidth and such. Main thing is to get addons that are helpful to your board in order to make it unique!

Great points, although I don't have to worry about bandwidth so much, considering I'm on a Dedicated Server. ;)

The board crashing part is the reason most of my bigger products are custom coded by me, if something goes wrong I know exactly where and how to fix it.

The additional pages that my own products add are restricted to members only, because Guests really have no use for the Store and Character Manager considering both require posting abilities. The store you need to post to get cash, and the Character Manager stuff is only shown in the Roleplaying Forums (where the post author info is changed to show Character Info instead of the poster).

The next thread I predict will be created is "My host shut me off, to many resources help!!!" type :D

Lol. :D

That's why I love how lucky I got with my hosting. My friend owns a dedicated server and because we work on a lot of projects together, he hosts me for free on his dedi, which is barely dented resource-wise.

Hey you're highjacking my addiction!

Alright getting back to the topic of this thread. So when's the next good mod coming out? I don't know what to do with myself now. LOL

Also, I want everyone to know that I actually downlanded an image to my server. I'm making progress... so I'm going hunting for some more mods...:D

I'm also a hack addict. I just have to be certain I don't unstall a unstable one. :)

I'm working on a small plugin... if the user has a Last.fm account, they put their username into a custom profile field and the hack will read from an XML file located at Last.fm. If they're currently listening it'll display a new block on the profile (under Mini Statistics) that will display the Song name, Artist name, and Album name of the song their currently listening too.

I'm unsure of releasing it, though, because I don't have a lot of time to support it.

Sound great Ryan. Please make it simple to upload. I'm only at the import xml stage of my addtiction. All the server stuff, FTP, PHP, PCP, LSD. PMS, stuff just confuses me. LOL

:D

I like to keep things simple. On my old vB board I don't think I had more than five add ons installed.

Even that is a lot, and I'm sure if I run vB again I will remove features rather than add them.. Maybe we'll see one day, eh?

never ending task, ;)

So far, I've done the entirety of the product using one hook and modifying the MEMBERINFO template (though, this will change to use template hooks). So, when release time comes, all it will be is just an XML import. ;)

i have 50+ installed, smooth sailing...lol

I don't think any website is doing itself justice unless it has customizations dedicated towards their users needs.

Whew thanks I can't wait to import it. If I don't need it I'll find some use for it. LOL

Well I'm glad I'm not the only addicted one. lol

Yes, that's what I keep telling myself. :D
