Yeah maybe not -every- server on Portal, just those tagged as Supported maybe..You're still not thinking about this rationally. So we monitor their changes and somehow police this rule? So if they didn't we could take our team of lawyers and sue them? If they were a hugely popular server with competent changes they would be destroyed by being taken off the portal?
Give me a work flow scenario that forces someone to do something and will work for a project this small? Open source projects depend on the community to survive. It's a big enough job to manage the code and make sure complete crap does not get into the core. Policing a database project would be 10 times harder.
I'm pretty much interested in your work around Database, I really like your blog having some nice "views" of database skills/spells.Speaking on public DBs, I'm tempted to start exporting DBs from DAoC DB if people want to help work on that as a central repository and management.
Well yeah, but everyone I've spoken to (including myself) thinks the same way.. which results in no one sharing their stuff... it's a vicious circle sadly! I'd like to see Player count removed from Portal and replaced with the admin's ContributionCount or something, but I doubt it'll ever happen I've been quite vocal over the last few years on why displaying player count on Portal is an absolutely awful idea but this thread isn't about thatSo many of us worked hard to make the DB as live like as possible, in order to attract more players. Lets say we share this DB, completely, with the community. Our fear, or at least my fear, is that someone grabs it and takes the population away from us. All that hard work with nothing left for us.
Once I stopped working on it, those guys are awesome. Not sure if it is still in their hands though.and Uthgard controls portal dev? When did that happen?
