Some plugins were causing issues.
These have been rectified now.

so once QRK goes to $1 a piece that means you will have paid 120.000$ for a logo? Hello?
That will generate some awesome publicity! WHATTTT  |

What happened with new quark forum?
its sucky, but i think it has to do with the political issues thread we saw a few days ago. apparently there is some kind of power struggle in progress. Having some issues with the DB. Everything's back up! |

BitcoinEx why are you so skeptical about the guys at Crypsty?
I have profound respect for you, but either show some proof of these "flaws" you've been posting about, or cut the guys at cryptsy a break....
They have been nothing but professional thus far, and continue to improve the site and to continue their support on as many alt's as possible.
You not highlighting (in detail) why they are not safe is doing a disservice to everyone in the crypto currency community.
Either put up or shut up.

Fixed thank you. Let me know if anything else is off. |

What's the point in doing that? C'mon son
We're building traffic to the new forum. If people want to collect 120K bounty the least they can do is register an account... C'mon man?  |

I was never against Max hosting any of this... I AM against Free Forums hosting it for many obvious reasons....
I moved on the hosting because I saw it wasn't getting done fast enough.
Max is a busy guy, and I don't expect him to have time to do minor tasks like these.
In any case Free Forums is not a valid discussion solution for a modern 21st century global currency...
I'm ready to go all the way with this, but please lets do it right!
Already PM'd Max with possible solutions for moving forward.
Thanks

FlipPro, I understand your concerns about scalability. You are right, we can't rely on these "free" forum in the long run. But what I was thinking is that, currently we don't have enough manpower and funds to run our own hosting, so we want some quick solutions. However, based on the PM you just sent to me, it looks like you have the enough skills to run a successful forum. It that's true, that would be pretty good; I would be very glad we have a web hosting professional like you. So, for now my another concern is, if we switched to the new forum, is it possible to mitigate important data on the old forum? Do you have enough confidence to make a smooth transformation? We want to make less confusions and troubles to existing users. Although we had some disagreement, we all want to build up a good Quark community. Let's continue discussion and work something out. I'm not too happy about the title or intent of this thread. These matters could have been easily handled in private without involving everyone's precious time. In any case I shall respond... I simply acted on the desires of public consensus when all of us talked about the discussion forum in Quark community needing a modern solution like Vanilla. I fronted the costs, secured the forum, and now have the site up @ http://quarktalk.com . QRK did not even have a working forum until a few days ago, I am shocked that I am being accused of "political land grabbing", when the suggested solution (vanilla forums) is what's necessary for the integration of the website that Digital Industry has so ineloquently pitched to you all in this thread. I never once said that Max was NOT going to be the administrator? Initially I asked him if he was going to set up the hosting, and he instead went for the 5 minute free forums registration.. I understand his time is extremely limited, and that's why I chose to be a contributor, as I have done in the Bitcoin space each and every day for the last 4 years. Max seems to have taken up development now, and for that reason I give him the utmost respect, and want want to work with him to satisfy his best wishes and come up with the long term solutions that work for the Quark Coin community at large. I am picky because I have experience and want things to work right as we scale and grow... I've explained to Max and Digital in private that exporting/importing accounts & conversations later on from the provider they're currently with (closed source, managed, third party hosted) is going to be almost impossible to achieve. I'm working on some really large scale projects right now, and anything that I am doing for QRK, I'm doing for the love of the community so drama is not in my path. Either we do things right technologically speaking or we don't do it at all... I'm here to build value, not to pump the price with cheap effortless tactics. Thank you for the honest questions Vic, Part of answering your question goes back to my original point . Exporting data from freeforums.net to any serious forum platform will prove to be almost impossible. Thats why it's best to jump on board to something real now while it's still early, rather than rely on a third party and deal with a huge mess later on (I've been through this if you can't tell). It's also really fun when the hosting provider shuts down your account randomly due to "routine inspections and/or maintenance", you're down for 12 hours, they have your data (which you can't easily export or backup), and everyone's wondering why they didn't listen to FlipPro . I can recreate all the current sections, duplicate any important how-to threads/directors, and route the roughly (60 registered users) to the real site... |

digitalindustry,
I'm not asking for any money for the forum integration.
I'm not asking for any money to manage the development of the site.
I asked you in private to raise a tiny amount $2500 was for the purposes of paying my staff to help me develop the product (takes more than just 1 person to build something nice).
I'm not trying to make anything out of the deal, the fact that you would think such a thing is insane.
P.S I don't normally do micro deals of this sort, but I wanted to help the community and make a long term contribution that would be long lasting. I truly don't appreciate it being presented in this fashion, as frankly it makes what I have to offer seem like a cheap deal anyone can get when in reality it's all for the love and greater success of QRK....

"and he has sole hosting rights on the forum if its on the website - "
Also I fundamentally disagree with you here.
The community should own the forum/website/content and all code should be open source.
Or are we turning into a corporation like Ripple now, with Max as CEO and you as President?

I think I'm out. These types of competitions are generally frowned upon by the design community and with the moving goal posts and deadlines I don't think I can invest any more of my time into this I'm afraid. If you don't get a suitable entry I would be happy to work for Quark on all or any of the elements outlined, perhaps just reworking the current logo. Feel free to get in contact via my portfolio http://ohcg.co.uk/Best of luck. stay in with us do you do any Web work ? as well - FLip does - too - Down to collaborate . We should have a community poll on what the coin will be called. |
