Why do we still have the contest forum?

[mdipi]

well why? its been over for a while. maybe it should be changed to Upcoming Contests or sumthing.

[kirupa]

true, so so true =)

[lostinbeta]

Deal with it and like it :evil:










lol :P

[andr.in]

Maybe the old contest threads should be deleted or sumthin'!
I mean somebody could get so confused there:
If you read the sticky:

I would like to inform everyone of a new Flash scripting contest to be held here. In this contest, you basically try to make something cool using a grid pattern.
It's like another grid contest! :P

[pom]

But we should keep the entries. It's really too bad that there were only a few people posting their entries (this reminds that I didn't :x )

pom :cowboy:

[lostinbeta]

Yeah Ilyas! I waited and waited to see the sources of your masterpieces! Then when you asked for ours, I thought you were going to post yours!

:evil:

[pom]

It would be a good idea to put the good ones in the open source section, don't you think? hey, we really need that mod board...

[h88]

[eilsoe]

No h88 :)

It's because his footer is lying on his own server... which obviously doesn't work right now...

My server works fine :)

[kirupa]

Cheers!
Kirupa :cool:

[eilsoe]

I'll mail'em to you in about an hour or so... :)

Oh, and the submit/preview reply buttons down below...

[kirupa]

[eilsoe]

Goody goody! :P

[pom]

Cool... A mod forum for us to plot... :+) (-: :crazy:

[lostinbeta]

Hey Kirupa, the Who's Online link says I don't have privledges to view it. This is the page it brings me to when I try to access it...


You do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
You do not have permission to access the page that you were trying to. Are you trying to edit someone else's post or trying to access administrative features? Check that you are allowed to perform this action in the Forum Rules.
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

[h88]

Its working over here, did u delete the Temp Internet files, or even refreshed the page ? :-\

[eilsoe]

Nuh-uh!

Doesn't work for me either :-\

[lostinbeta]

I delete my temp files and cookies every night. This is my first time at the forum today :-\

[h88]

I think Kirupa forgot to add permissions to let moderators view who's online, Muhahaha

[h88]

Please dont feel that this post is .................!!!

[lostinbeta]

That is ok, I still have my Member List, which is what I asked for in the first place :)

nevermind, lets get that topic back to subject, we should create another topic, called "Old Contest" and rename the one we're using to "New Contests"!

so, what do u think Kirupa?

yours,
h88

[h88]

btw, We Really need Scripting and Backend Forums!

[mdipi]

or the we could have a Flash/PHP intergration forum. or just add PHP to the JavaScript/HTML forum. that would be cool too!

[h88]

yeah, and move all topics that subjects "serverside" to that Forum! we could have, Client Side and Server Side too!

Server Side
Integrate Flash with E-commerce, Search Engines, Database...

Client Side
For questions related to Javascript, DHTML or HTML. Send them in here.

did we forget flash remoting and flash communication server:

Flash MX - ServerSide
Flash MX Communication Server and Flash remoting to shared object discussions.

[mdipi]

h 88. plz stop spamming! write full paragraphs with your ideas. i used to do what you are doing, untill dan started to delete my posts, so just be ready for the worst. other wise type big posts with all your ideas.

[h88]

ohh, sorry, ill just edit my post now

[mdipi]

oops! guess i overrid the submit button.

[mdipi]

lol. it just makes things longer to read...

My Target was not to spam, i was just copying and pasting the description from another forum post by post, ill never be a spammer and i dont like spammers!

[eilsoe]

Mdipi's a pure bred Spamminator! :P

lol, i knew that when he told me Dan used to delete his posts...Lol!

[mdipi]

yeah, that and dan is always pissed at me....

[telekinesis]

mdipi, the only reason I get mad is because you try to take too much into your own hands. You are not a moderator, you can't make rules or start something new in this forum without the consent of a moderator, hence you starting a voting thread when the rules say the moderators handle the battles.

[mdipi]

yeah, i should have read the rules more carfully:o . like i said, sorry.

[Makaveli]

haha...right.........speaking of new forums...how about a math physics forum? i know hella people like me who need help on that! :hat:

[upuaut]

Why don't we just come up with another contest for the contest forum.

I know I didn't submit anything to the last one, but I'm certainly open to the idea of creating things for a new one. I just didn't have anything creative for a grid. Plus, though I've got MX now, I was working with 5.0 then. I'm a little more excited to start trying out a lot of the coding I saw for that last one.

Anyway..

a physics forum sounds good
another contest sounds good
it all sounds good. :)

[h88]

That will really rocks when creating specific Flash and Actionscript Forums, Math and Physics is a good idea MakaVeli_Da_DoN, We also need newbies forum, and Server and Client side forums!

yours,
h88

[mdipi]

i would like to see a newbie forum. that way you could pick out ? for that are advanced or not, so you know what ones to answer. ya know? i dont know about a Math and Phyiscis, it does sound cool though....

[h88]

Kirupa said he may consider it http://www.flashmove.com/board/images/icons/icon10.gif

[mdipi]

sounds cool. but remember, do we REALLY want these forums to have so many topics one wont know where do post....

[lostinbeta]

A newbie forum is a waste of space. They can post questions that have to deal with what they want in the section we have now.

As for Math and Physics, I like that idea... BUT, there aren't too many people here that are strong in Math and Physics in Flash... I can think of a couple people (and I am not one of them), but a couple can't cover a whole section.

Bit-101 has a section for that, and you are most likely going to get better help there for that area considering the Math geniuses there and stuff.

[h88]

What about Server-Side Forums? and Flash comm, Remoting?

[lostinbeta]

Calm down dude, you already mentioned those before.

[h88]

i mean ur opinion Lost!

[lostinbeta]

Server-side can be included with the HTML/Javascript so it could become

HTML/Javascript/Server-Side

You can't just rename it server-side because a lot of people won't think to add HTML and javascript stuff in there, and theyw ill start posting those questions in the Actionscript and Random sections like they did before it was renamed to HTML/Javascript.

But I don't think it should be a whole seperate section.

[kirupa]

I agree with you lost. JavaScript/HTML/Server-Side is a better choice than creating a whole new section. Likewise, it is best to not have a Math and Physics section. The Who's Online feature for moderators should be working now (tell me if you have any problems). The e-mail graphic feature is really bugging me. All of the code states that e-mail should be visible, yet when I view a post, the e-mail feature is disabled. Really odd.

Cheers!
Kirupa =)

[lostinbeta]

The Online feature works for me now Kirupa :)

[h88]

I think u should do the re-name now, cuz i asked some of my friends to visit Kirupa forums, he simply said, "i dont see any xml/serverside topics, btw"! :O

[h88]

Kirupa Done The rename process!!

yours,
h88

[mdipi]

kirupa, i said earlyer about something for PHP i think, scratch that, i can just post in the HTML section if needed. :P

[lostinbeta]

That is why it was changed :P

[mdipi]

i posted before i saw the name :P
