Development Idea

[Archie]

Hello,

So this is going to be short and sweet since I'm on my phone.

I am requesting that you make a place where people can ask development questions, similar to Spigot forums.


// Why not go to Spigot forums you // ask?

Well this could be another reason for users joining and could grow the website player base as people can come here for development help.

People may also have a service for development assistance, or for lessons (Ammar T already offers this).

Obviously you could also use the "Development" section too - however -

1. Developers only go here to post their threads - after that there is no need.

2. Some developers may want to scroll through the new category to specifically help people and answer questions.

What would this bring to the community?
I believe that implementing this would mean that MCM could attract more aspiring developers and also help improve the skills and knowledge base of some of the current developers here.

Downside -

It may be pointless
It may not work

If this happens the category can be removed anyway, so I'm not too sure why it would matter.

I would like this, as it would be much easier than being laughed at on Spigot.

I'd like to hear more opinions,

Thank you

Archie

Could be very very useful.

Thank you.. I'm surprised how much good feedback this has had.

I'm more on mc-market than on spigotmc and I would love to learn to develop. Just do it!

 

[Archie]

Zap don't disagree and not post anything. Please explain.

This wouldn't be bad, gaining and keeping users should be one of Mc-Market's #1 priorities. Although you could just ask these questions in General Discussion or Off-Topic.

But general discussion isnt specific enough.. Developers won't go there to answer questions.

We already had development and servers error sections and they were both dead.

he's counting his money, he'll be here in a few weeks

Hmm.. how long ago?

Like 5-6 months back. They were dead back then, not sure why they wouldn't be now.

Well it has got a lot of support backing it... that was 6 months ago.[DOUBLEPOST=1461045621][/DOUBLEPOST]Don't disagree without posting your opinion omg.

Useful to draw in userbase I agree. but lets leave spigotmc to dominate this field as we know bukkit is somewhat dying or steadily surviving. no need to bring in developers that can potentially scam much more easily here than spigot where they ocassionally will get spoon feeded code and sell their "unique" plugin.

You've assumed the worst of all the beginner developers out there. Well no, Spigot replies can take days... Here we can have a much more personal set-up.

Resilience disagreeing due to the argument in shoutbox, please give your reasoning. Since you only disagreed to get under my finger nails.

You clearly didn't read the thread, you're probably not a developer, but you should know that it is hard starting out and being taunted and teased on Spigot.

This could increase player base.

Improve people's development skills helping server owners out all over.


Etc.

This category isn't for you either, so I don't see why it affects you? I clearly stated that if it fails, simply remove it.
