Maybe we could have a forum for progress reports?

Post count doesn't increase.

One thread for each script, any others will be deleted.

I think it would help scripters.

Just my thoughts.

What are yours?

So are you saying like each script that is made has its own thread for progress reports?

I don't think so, because then people might see less purpose of posting progress reports. Like I doubt everyone posts them to help the script i bet there's people here who just post them as an excuse for post count, and I know that's your point probably, but think how many scripter won't get progress reports then, it'd be harder to update scripts and find bugs in this case. So sorry, but I'd have to vote no, for updating and improving scripts.

EDIT: oh yea, I've got 100% of the vote. sorry it's a negative vote though =(

Yeah I agree with baked in a way because I'm having trouble as it is getting people to post progress reports, although, it WOULD save space on your script thread, and it might motivate people to get the best progress report on that thread, so im yes and no.

not gunna lie, seems like a retarded idea to me…waste of space, time and effort for alot of mods, and things work fine with people posting them on the scripts thread.

I kinda like the idea, but the whole 'post count won't count' I don't really think will work. That has been around for ages in the waste of time out section, and no change has every happened. So, in all, I'm not a huge fan of it.

It's happening in General News as we speak.

Why can't they just post proggies on the script's thread?

word, i acaully voted yes .

but change my mind now lol,

due to people can make up there reports, and just post on the thread…

Doesnt sound like a very good idea, sorry.
Just another waste of space.

Just post it at the script's thread.. much easier..

a forum? wtf, this whole site is a forum. no no no. maybe put long ones in the general dump. but no, just no to this idea.

Maybe an all time record thread, but, wait, dont we have a "Post the Best Progress Report you have " thread somewhere? This might get stickied. Also, the stats page contains some amazing results!

18 million chicken killed with munk's forefeathers. Scripts has run 8 Years 2 Weeks 2 Days 1 Hours 24 Minutes . Let me say that again:

8 Years 2 Weeks 2 Days 1 Hours 24 Minutes .


The stats page is full of wonders :)

So, no, although the idea seems appealing at first, we could do with a stickied thread, k?

Holy cow! It's been running longer than Runescape has existed! Goes to show how many people are running the script, and shows how stable and good it is.

Surely it would stop people posting them? If they get no post count.

well if they have to go to the thread to get updates they're more inclined to post there so no from me

I think it would be pretty cool, myself.

Post counts SHOULD increase, after I've thought about it.

And, it'd be good because you could see all kinds of progress reports right together, seeing how effective the script really is.

The whole point of posting Progress Reports is to thank the scripter. It should be posted in the scripts thread. There is no reason to make a separate forum for it.

WOW!

Someone's cool. They give me negative rep cause their idea was crap.

NaumanAkhlaq is usually stupid enough to do that.
