« on: January 09, 2013, 05:15:05 PM »What's the point of even having the interface on a remote webserver? Surely if you hosted it via Blockland using something like the Torque Webserver resource by Truce it'd be a way more effective way of interfacing with the server. I know from my experience that getting a remote interface to work well with a server takes a lot of work and has a lot of drawbacks. That way there's no cost to you either.It's just my preference to have it on the JS server. Even if your server is down, you can restart it. Plus, there would be a "my server crashed and I'm on a plane somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean stuff." issue. Then you have to deal with port forwarding. I already own the JS Web Server, so I don't mind using it.

Nope. Windows 8 keeps all of your files and drivers, and will not be bothered with other HDD's on your system. They will remain there.

Take a look at this for example:I'm beginning to consider this. I may offer the personal package at no charge. However, it will strictly be limited to personal use, and professional will still cost (as it should). I would need more than one opinion on this, however.

A free server manager for minecraft - it's amazing. It does awesome things and it's free. This is the kind of thing Blockland could really benefit from and it'd be silly to charge for it. What you're spending apparently a significant amount of time on is going to benefit very few people if any at all.

"I just google image searched your dashboard picture - it was on the first page of results. I didn't exactly dedicate hours of my life to this."
Any reason you did that? You pretty clearly wanted to do something with it if you found something.
"Well I'm not a mind reader. That's all you said in your post - how am I meant to know that what you meant isn't what you typed?"
No, you assumed what I said was that the every single inch was done, when I was pretty clear both in that post and throughout the topic that I'm still working.
"No I already stated a bunch of things wrong with your proposal such as your lack of experience, lack of track record completing projects, lack of good business plan, overestimating the size of your target market, failing to recognise that these kinds of services are offered for free for most other games etc."
All of which are bullstuff arguments.
"I can probably speak for Rub too when I say we're not too worried about competition--"
So, what was the point of telling me to stop working on this? What was the point of pointing out my template? What was the point of trying to get me to think that I needed 800$ for the template? And again, you assume that no one will buy this. I pity you. I truly do.

I'm not meaning to misrepresent progress. I think I am being rather vauge, however. The data (most of it, still working on a few transfers) can reach the server, and be associated with that client's account. And is therefore able to be displayed within different blockStar modules as needed. Keep in mind that I need 3 systems to all work together perfectly, so I'm doing "under the hood" work (As in work that I can't take a picture of) at times, and "visual" work others. I posted a picture of the dashboard to show you what it will look like. It would be pretty redundant just for me to show you the login screen, wouldn't it?
lol
You've proved that you're willing to everything there is to do to make sure no competition exists. Even if you look like an ass while doing it, you'll just try and find something else.
I'm also going to assure you that everything blockStar has promised, I will fulfill. I'm not sure why the template I used was brought up, but whatever. I guess there are stupider reasons to call a service stuffty. I have to be honest with you all, though. blockStar doesn't include a star when you buy it. I know. I know. RTB is going to be all over me about it. It clearly makes it a stuffty service, since I clearly said it included stars in the name.

I wouldn't. But its still a waste of money for a stupid management system. I mean honestly.You do realize that you're making yourself look even worse than you did before you started posting here?
If it was a hosting service, Ya, I understand. But all you do is give a remote management system and charge PER MONTH. It's a loving waste. Like seriously, It's server management, and should be a low cost one time payment, Not the price of the entire game for just 6 months of it.

This, folks, is why you should never trust the RTB team. They look for reasons. Consider this:
I post a picture of the template. The RTB team scowers the internet trying to find said template. They do, and post the fact that I'm using a template, and that the service is now stuffty because of it. They point out that the graph (that I never said was dynamic yet) was using filler data. They completely disregarded that I'm single-handedly programming 3 systems to work in unison with eachother in 3 different languages, and am focusing on the data. I pretty clearly stated that I may or may not be able to get any visual work (what you can see) today. It's pretty obvious that I was either working on it's parts, or on one of the 3 modules of blockStar.
I did vaguely claim to have made the template, and with a good reason. Pretty much to avoid having to respond to RTB's stuffty claims against me. You see, RTB can't really find anything wrong with this service, so they look for reasons. Even though petty, they use it against me that I'm using a template (that everyone said that they loved) instead of spending the time to hand-write it from scratch. Consider that I'm also a "one-man army", so it makes more sense for me to use a licensed template anyway. I paid the author the dues that he had requested, and have no issue using the template fairly.
The graph's don't have real data!
There's no good reason that I should put live data into graphs that I'm still tweaking and moving around. The data is there. It just needs to be called from the database. I assure you that the graphs do work.
But this is a template, so the service sucks.
Any reasons? Consider this: (1)the template looks great, (2)I fully and fairly paid the author to use it, (3)I'm the single developer here. Consider how much time this saved; If you're convinced that the service sucks because it uses a template, you need to seriously reconsider yourself.

I guess putting "done" in quotation marks means "barely done at all"? Pretty confusing!!You probably shouldn't be assuming things if you're going to take shots at a service. I have every method developed to pull data from the server and have it on blockStar. That's what I mean by "done". Are you handicapped?
How do you make a login system unanimous?All authentication is dependent on the web-server. 3 different things have to be able to connect to that web-server with their own methods and authenticate the client. The login system is "unanimous", meaning that all 3 modules can authenticate on the same system whilst using completely different methods. Maybe "in perfect unison" would have been a better phrase.
I just agreed with Ephialtes and Rubs opinion that you having done nothing and calling a wonderful design "wonderful" even though you did not make it! I was considering getting this but then you just called my rightful opinion sad. I won't be supporting you anymore!
Oh my! Thanks for pointing this out! I had such high hopes for this service. NevermimdReally?

This is sad to me. I use a template (that I paid for) to speed up the process, and all of a sudden blockStar is a stuffty service?
You need to find a better reason to call me out.
RTB 1Amusing. I use a template, and the service sucks all of a sudden. A template that I paid my own money for.
blockstar 1
Right, but no point telling people how much you've progressed and then just showing pictures of a template you've downloaded in 5 minutes.So you're criticizing what? I did progress by creating a completely secure and unanimous login system. What you don't seem to comprehend is what the server needs to display to the wrapper software, which is where I am progressing. In fact, I pretty clearly said that. I even told you that I'm "hoping to get some visual development done today". blockStar consists of 3 things that need developed: 1) blockStar Server-Client, 2) blockStar Website (including back-end server data), 3) blockStar Mod (that has to communicate with the back-end of blockStar).
You need to find a better reason to call me out.
The fact that the graphs in the demo are exactly the same as in his screenshots also shows nothing is functional at all ...Ahem. Where did I say that the screenshot of the graph was functioning? You apparently like to blatantly disregard visual development. If you're telling me to start inserting functioning data into a work-in-progress layout, you're handicapped.
Didn't notice that until now. Quite disappointing :(Not really. The data is able to be placed in the database by the server mod. Everything that the graphs need to be real is there. However, the layout of the home screen is way too wip for me to start plugging in real data. I'd much rather have the layout done first, because doing both at the same time will cause chaos.
Oh my! Thanks for pointing this out! I had such high hopes for this service. NevermimdThis post is sad, and I have no reason to respond to it. Disregard the fact that I'm doing the visual development. Do you know what filler data is?
Well that's embarrasing, Jeep.Not really. I use a template (one that I paid for), and the service sucks?
RTB was designed from scratch by me, only the button elements and message/alert boxes are based off Twitter's open source web framework.So, what difference does RTB using a template or not make? I don't get it.
Wait, so he has to pay $800 if he wants to use the template?Extended allows for redistribution of it if offered in a software package. blockStar is only located on my website, and therefore will be fine with the regular license. You apparently can't read, or are too incapable to understand that.
Oh gee. Better use something else.
Yeah, or just give up, not sure he's cut out for this development.That's your best attempt? How sad of you to think that I'm stopping development just because I'm using a template. Keep trying, Lub. Keep trying.
