Looking for someone to create/modify software for this forum [5500+ BTC]

[carlos]

You will not come close to the security and professionalism of VBulletin.

You have my word.

I'm not sure that vB 4 is the right way... Have you heard of core developers leaving and creating their own platform (Xenforo)?
vBulletin was great specially up to 3.x it was miles ahead competition. But nowadays - Xenforo is most popular choice of hardcore vB modders... Read this: http://www.theadminzone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95608

I'm guessing the forum is waiting for vb5 to be officially released, and then we'll all see the greatness of connect....

BOSS,

Please upgrade the board. XF, ipb, vb, whatever. But please upgrade it.

I think that we are all getting tired of the limits of SMF.

I think SMF works pretty well now. I fixed the most pressing issues. (This is one of the reasons I haven't been too motivated to get this job done.)

I agree with you that it *works* well, however it's really a 2005 software.
No ayax, no mobile style, it dosen't detect properly readed and udreaded posts (at least for me it dosen't send me to the first unreaded post), it dosen't has any kind of notification system, etc.

For me they are all shortcomings, it would be really great if you yourself upgraded for (my personal preference) xenforo. You should be able to integrate the features that this board has and will be missing there in a week of work or so.

But unfortunatelly i understand if you follow the old "if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it" motto, i'm a lazy person and i follow that too on my work online.

You should try pressing the blue image with the text "new"() instead of the post title...

[sippsnapp]

I still find the  [3600+ BTC] such awesome, on freelancer boards them coderz would code the nasa spaceshuttle os for this amount, well at least the kernel  .

Thanks for that.

I don't want to push you admin, but it still is my idea (and I think that you will find an expert freelancer that for 100-200btc would be capable of doing all the mess...)

Just pick the board you like, go there and ask for that!

After all, it's tax free

This is enough to hire a team to do it for you already, provided the timeframe is not too immense. You get what you paid for.

How about paying a team to do it open source?

And distributed!


There is such tech possible with current browsers with html5.

[kiba]

We been waiting too long using a substandard board. WE DEMAND PROGRESS!

Well, I didn't pay anything to the funds, so I don't really have much of a right to say something.

... and capable to go completely "darknet" route , if needed.
Also ( my intention is not to start holywar here ) PHP is Sooo outdated in 2012,
 like living dead walking alive.
Oh, please hire real coders to write it in any other modern and high quality language !
 

Lol.

I don''t. I code in PHP/5.3.10+.

You just listed as a requirements a release that only has one bugfix in it, no new features.
This proves me that you don't know php enought to blame it.

That being said, it's certainly not the best language of the world, as none is, but it does fit some requirements pretty well.

You are trying to make me confess about which languages I code with. PHP. And I can recognise some C based variants enough to tweak/hunt and fix bugs.

But it's certainly NOT blameless. Not by a long shot. The worst one that comes to mind is security and data sanitation. You gotta do it all yourself.

[cedivad]

That is what frameworks are for

Security
Use salted multi-iteration hashing for passwords using one of the SHA-2 algorithms. Passwords in the existing SHA-1 format need to be automatically upgraded once the user logs in again.

So while doing some research last night, my partner found http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/

I think the article makes a valid point.  What do you think, theymos?  Maybe bcrypt(SHA-256(password)) if we want to be uber paranoid

If you're going to have open-id, just go full open-id. Optionally, have a bitcointalk open-id server maybe?
