DST is really frustrating. Why do we need to change every year that clock again, what only gives people a headache and a lot of worries? Damn.

How does MPV work?

Posted by on 29 March 2009 No comments

We, as MOD team at phpBB.com, get regulary the question how MPV works and how we work with it.
This probarly is asked because a lot people think its a major part of our validation. This is absolute not true. MPV is a tool to help us with the validation and to see any basic problems. We dont deny MODs because of MPV directly, but because MPV saw a problem and we checked and confirmed this by hand.

As all of you know, phpBB.com was offline for some time in begin of februari. I did know that a lot of traffic here at my blog came from phpBB.com, but not that it was that much.
When I looked at my site stats a few minutes ago I noticed a large change in visitors at the time phpBB.com. I really havent expected it was that much, see the attached screenshot. Read more »

Ajax shoutbox, a new life?

Posted by on 22 March 2009 13 comments

A lot people know regarding my AJAX shoutbox MOD. Beside’s that it was very popular within the community there were also several problems with it.
The main problem, for me at least, was the user. Why? They didnt read the topics. They didnt read the support topics, while in a lot cases the answer was there. Because of that the support topics where getting huge, and people started to get angry. At a moment I decided to stop with it.

Currently iam thinking of starting with this MOD again. Ofcourse I still have the source code (Even if I said to several people that I didnt have it anymore!). Iam only not sure how to set up the support for the MOD itself. Doing it at a single topic at phpBB.com will instantly means a large failure, so that will not work. So iam thinking of setting up a seperate board for it so I can use that.
Hopefully more on this soon ;)

But now the question. What features does the MOD need to have? It already had some really nice features, but I still think it need some more. Good stuff to think about ;) .

Waarom gaat het slecht op school?
Waarom doe ik niet beter mijn best?
Waarom?
Waarom kan ik niet met meiden omgaan?
Waarom kan ik het niet?
Waarom?
Waarom ben ik zo verlegen?
Waarom kan ik niet eens normaal antwoorden wanneer een meisje wat tegen me zegt?
