Of course.  Why else would I want this job?  Just to have a nice forum to frequent?  Haha.  Come on now, something has to pay the bills.
lol
 
Wait, you guys didn't know? I've made like an undisclosed amount already. What, you thought we were contributing to the forums of our own generosity?? HA!

Mod Edit---  No discussion of how much you've made, please!

Since apparently not everyone knows, once you contribute to these forums you get a little "donation" of sorts.  Usually depending on the usefulness of your program.  Things like graphical mods don't get anything, but if you make a program or are staff you get a paypal donation.   No one is allowed to discuss how much they've been given, but I don't think there's any harm if everyone knows contributing here is rewarded.
 
Lol are you guys retarted? Are you seriously trying to convince ppl that you get money for doing these mods?
ROFL... It would be a cool thing to happen though, I mean I wouldnt need the money, but Im sure it would motivate other users.

And LOL'ed at the new title.
 
I think he said members who only made a program that are useful get donations not mods. :-X

Thanks.  Hopefully I can make you proud ;)
 
Now, there's two topics for every mod and every program. Conversations are broken apart, and every thread made in the past week or so is complete chaos.

Is it safe to assume that over time this'll become less of a clusterfuck as we get used to the new organization, or just false hope?
 
You better come over to Team Avalanche and enjoy the tranquility.
 
Any chance of placing the posts back into the retranslation thread?  Seem to be down to the main post only?  or is this intended?

Intended. I think there is going to be a seperate thread in programming feedback for discussion. Game tweaking is supposed to be only about the release.
 
The problem is, big programs like the custom graphics driver are swamped with fix after fix after bug after discussion after fix.

Try to think of Game Tweaking as strictly for releases.. as far as programs are concerned.  Everything can't be linked in the wiki, there are just too many different ones.  There is no reason for the author to make a separate thread in programming feedback; as soon as the first person wants to discuss or report a bug with the newest version, a new thread will be made.   Problems using the programs DEFINITELY need to be kept separate.  Suggestions too.  And bug reports pretty much go hand in hand with problems.    Trying to start this in the middle of everything of course will be a clusterf*** (as I predicted :( ).  But take a look at the Black Chocobo thread in Game Tweaking.   I think it's a pretty ideal example of what a thread should look like for a program (postings only by author).   Its programming feedback thread is, of course, horrible.  However, once new versions are released, new threads will be made in programming feedback that will look much more normal.

I honestly believe this will end up working much better than the setup we've been using.  If anyone has a better suggestion (besides leaving everything as it is), please chime in!  I am more than open to input.  

Seifer, your retranslation thread will be restored since it is a project you're undertaking.  For now, all projects like yours and Bosola's Rebirth project, will keep full discussion.

Side note: Hopefully in a few days the programs will be separate from the projects and graphical mods in their own sub-forum.  


Oh also! It's not going to be a direct split from the first post.  I'm going to move back all the authors posts pertaining to changes and releases.   It will then be up to the author if he wants to delete some of them (as Sithlord did) or just leave them, makes no difference to me.  So basically, if you're making a program, feel free to quintuple post... for now

Yeah a double post, whatevs.

Really no one has any suggestions besides having subforums for Game Tweaking?   Everyone thinks keeping Game Tweaking just available for the author is a good idea, and has complete faith it will end up working better in the long run?
 
Works for me personally. Only thing i can think of which is out of your scope of abilities is to have a seperate title for people who write programs. This title is tied to the game tweaking section and only people who have this can post there. Something like Program Author. I know it can be done since Hermoor was able to post only in one area due to his 'Jesus' title.
 
if your gonna do that w/ game tweaking then i suggest renaming it to "releases" or something cause game tweaking sounds a bit loose as a section. just my 2 cent work . oh and thanks for the kind words about the black chocobo thread :)

oh and i completely agree w/ sl on limiting who can post there either way, only problem i see w/ that is new programmers putting there stuff in that section. would need to be "blessed" first so they can write there.
