I'm going to start a big venture, and try and build my very own forum software. This is so I can use on all of my sites, and have it the way I want it to. What I want to be able to create is something similar to punbb, with the social features of IPB. It's a difficult task, some I'm need of some people to help me. If your a programmer, web designer, or good with php or rubyonrails, then I need your help. I'm looking for anybody who can help develop this forum software. I have the funds, now I need some workers.
Talk about reinventing the wheel dude lol. No offense intended I had a crazy idea to make my own I must admit but after considerable time spending on coding in PHP I cant even show a complete site, I know I sucks lol. Anyway The idea is not all that bad I mean having your own custom forum would be kick *bottom* but the expertise and time needed to build one would be too great. You say you have the funds does that mean your are willing to pay people?
Depending on how complex you want it to be it could take forever to complete. Not to mention very buggy if you don't plan and test it out properly along the way. I'm not saying don't do it as I love seeing things get attempted. Heh I would of done this myself If i had the time. I wanted a custom forum to run inside my website you know keep things the same so users don't feel like they are leaving your site when they are viewing your forums. I've seen this on one site the guy did in ASP it was awesome looking too with nice skins. It blending in so well with his site you couldn't tell you were in a forum section at time.
I was going to look into finding a lite forum where you could place inside a website but I don't know if there are any out there designed specifically for this sole purpose. If one knows let us all know thanks.
How would you co-ordinate this? I mean doing it over the net with people around the world would make meetings difficult. I suppose voice chat would help to some extend but keeping people focused on the same idea/task at hand may prove challenging. I would offer my services to help out as I want as much experience as I can get in PHP but I have doubts about project succeeding due to my ability personally and others. I'm not saying others here aren't capable, this is depending on what members we are talking about of course. If I got a chance to work along side and learn off some talented people I would take it.
Voice chats will be conducted via Yahoo Messenger. I am willing to pay for services, via paypal or if you'd like some other way (domain, software, ect.). I understand what you say fully, but I am willing to take a chance.
Well, if you are serious about this and you really have the funds to hire people, I'd consider working with you. Send me a PM if you'd like and we'll see what we can work out.
hey man the venture seems to b quite exciting .. but the sad thing is that i kno too less of it .. i wish i cud join it .. but i cant coz i kno less ..
hey wen done with this proj do let me know bk2070 ..
This does sound like a challenging task if not almost impossible from my point of view. I would like to join and help out, get more experience but I'm not sure I have the time to commit. Classes at university are just starting this semester and I've got a big work load already so I just dont know. I would like to see how this turns out. See what hows its done first hand you know.
Well any help you can give will be accepted. If you are interested please do PM me, or you can always talk to me over on AIM. The link to my screename is located on my profile.
bk, What about joining another project yourself to gain some valuable experience? I know that AEF Forums are looking for developers to do some mods and work on the main Trunk, too. Might be an experience for testing your abilities before you jump into this Project you have planned.
Hey that sounds tempting to gain some valuable experience. What kind err how desperate are they to get people in on this? I'm still a noob in PHP but I'm willing to invest as much time as possible in learning more when I have time off around my school work and such. I cant say exactly how much time I'll have free at this stage but I just want to know what kind of levels of programmers are they taking in for that kind of role.
Well, I plan on helping our bk with his forum software, so I'll take him through the steps of this. I've already told him how this is not a simple run n' gun (or code, as the case my be) project. I think this will be a fun project for me, and a learning experience for bk.
Well, again, if you are able to help us in any way, then feel free to contact me. We are looking for some coders, and designers to help finalize the project.
good luck with it, i was going to make one but after a while of working on it i got stuck and just left it for now, and started working on another project. I would love to see what you come up with when it gets finished, are you plaing on releasing the code for it or are you going to keep it secret?
Yeah I hear you out haslip, but I have been working on another forum software that is about to be released. It's just that it wasn't going in the direction I wanted it to, so I've gone out trying to make my own. And like demonfire said, I have some other coders backing me up, so I'm hoping this all goes well.
hmm, you know what? That sounds like a really good idea. It's not an idea that will work with every project, but if I can do it with this one, I will. Thanks for the idea, sonesay.
Hi! friends, we are all here... but how did we reach here? Lets take a poll, may be this info
will be useful to the admins also, in shaping their policies... So let's start!
Googlue! Could you also visit my site and comment on that here? I found out in another
forum. When I was disgusted with shyper.com, I started searching and reached post2host.com. That
sucks... and is anyway down! Somebody had mentioned this site there.. and goog lord.. I am here.

I have a forum right? I need some more people on it. Could someone please share their tips, how
they got their members, how many, etc? Maybe OpaQue could give me some advice. I am trying to

anyone? My goal is to get to about 5 signups a day, which is really small. Any programs out there?
Thanks! Note: I was going to put this in advertising, but it doesn't fit any forum there.
Maybe someone could put this in the right spot, if it isn't already /wink....

Recently, a forum that I spend a lot of time on went down. There are a lot of rumors about when it
will be coming back but nobody knows for sure. So what I did was, I made a new forum, a sort of
waiting room, and I invited a few of my friends. They signed up, but they don't have much to
say! I know that if there were more interesting conversations going on the word would spread and
the place would be a success. What are some good topics to get people to open up and start
chatting?...
Microsoft Sound files were founded to be edited with a Cracked Software copy of SoundForge. Dont
belive me ??? You can check that yourself by opening any file in the
/Help/Tours/WindowsMediaPlayer/Audio/Wav folder in notepad or other editors of your choice and
looking at the last line. There you will find a reference to SoundForge 4.5 and also a user called
‘Deepz0ne’ who happens to be one of the founders of an audio software cracking group called Radium.”
BINGO!...
I came to Trap17 this morning and noticed that one of the posts I had made last night was on the

I occurred to me a while ago that many of the writings on this forum are either from complete
imbeciles or that many times people who are "contributing" are totally high or drunk. We got to
discussing this in the shoutbox the other night and I decided to start a poll on the topic. I
confess I'm not always totally sober when I'm on, but I've never been drunk either.
Getting high isn't something I do anymore. Most people grow out of that sort of thing after they
get out of college and have to face the real world. Alright, have at it! Are you high, drunk...
Hi all I forund this new board a few weeks ago and it is really good and professional! Those of you

What you think?
Also this is still in the development stages but there a very few bugs now so a
new version of myBB (code named myBBGold) which will be hopefully the final release of myBB! Its
free too! Easy to install and requires 1 mySQL database and php to run....

detail just to read a question, so I will explain my intention. Basically, on my website I have a
php script for users to register to my site. I then use this data to create forum accounts (I do not
use the main forum Registration form because I cannot change it's contents and there are some
questions I'd like to ask before registration). Later I also plan to make hidden areas that you
need to register for to enter. Anyway, I wondered if it was possible to make ...
