Quote from: C.Mongler on November 29, 2022, 12:16:07 PMas far as I know jmv custom built the module (or whatever SMF calls module equivalents lol) for anon posting. it is not out-of-the-box compatible for SMF 2.0+. someone would need to make it. i might be able to? but i need to setup a local SMF dev environment. i tried once and fucked it up and then got stoned and played video games instead of trying again and here we are like 4 years later

snorkle said at one point he'd add any dumb shit i made as long as it was tested and shit but yeah kind of need a dev environment to make and test anything lmao

tho he did make it 2.0.1 compatible lol idk what version this shit is on now i guess more recent than that

this one seems like it would work fine:
https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=4078

the bigger problem is no one has server access and getting anyone to give a shit enough to enable and configure this stuff seems like a moonshot these days lol

Quote from: C.Mongler on November 29, 2022, 12:28:31 PMjust give all regular-posters admin rights and server access at this point tbh, we could have destroyed this place aeons ago if we really wanted to, we just want to post!!!

what's the worst that could happen, i renew the security certificate???

Quote from: Mando Pandango on November 29, 2022, 12:48:24 PMyeah hell i think there are a number of boyagers who could actually put together the functionality but whatever

spoiler tags would be nice too

youtube embeds

I have been meaning to address this entire post sequence. Consider this thread a placeholder.

Please do remind me should I forget, because it actually is crucial we have this conversation.

It concerns the future of Boyah.

Yeah.

But rest assured, there is hope.

~Tectron to MISTAh M*nglah (argh;)~

In all seriousness:

Are you genuinely interested in being a Boyah Administrator? befuddlement


C.Mongler

the bigger problem is i need a local development/testing environment to really be helpful and i haven't set one up lol

I do almost nothing at work and would probably learn more by working on boyah.

I wouldn't want to do it alone though

1. What could you do for Boyah as an Administrator that you can't currently accomplish as a standard Boyager?

2. What skills would you bring to the table? (note: an answer of 'none' will not necessarily disqualify you (srsly))

3. Are you willing to consider starting with a Moderator position?

While our current Admins aren't always available, the rest of the Boyah team is here for support. I agree that it'd be best to have at least two new concurrent Admins.

it's not really that difficult, i did it while tec was yelling at everyone else to do it for him

all it really takes is, you know, getting on discord and asking him

what im saying is do it yourself

YPrrrr

Seems like a lot of time and effort for a forum maybe 20 people will use infrequently

But godspeed!
