ISWT Developer(s)

[Cherish]

Hello my name is Ethan,

I am opening a new network based around Soup pvp. I want to bring back the soup community. I am a Marketing Manager so I will handle that and I have all the builds and team we need minus the developers.

What I Am Looking For:
- 2 Java Script Developers (For Plugins)
- HTML // CSS Developer (For Our Website)
- 1 System Administrator (For Working On The Server)

This server is going to become a big network and I need all that apply to be willing to put in the amount of effort and work it will take to become so. I do not want someone with inadequate skills or an immature and lackadaisical mindset.

I need those who apply to work for free at first, funds are tight with opening and the sooner we get it opened and running the sooner we can gain profits for a 'payroll', after we can attain some money to keep the server going we will be able to pay the Senior staff (Owners, Sponsors, Managers, Developers).

What ISWT is all about:

- Gamemodes: SoupHCF, SoupFFA, SoupPractice, SoupUHC, and a new *custom gamemode.
- ISWT: InSoupWeTrust (Current Name For The Network)
- Staff Team: 1 Owner, 1 Manager, 1 Terraformer, 2 Builders (Looking for more), 0 Developers, 2 Administrators.
-Goal: To bring back the soup community and provide a fun and enjoyable network for all players.

If you are interested in the Developer positions on my network please contact me with a PM or via a Reply to this post. Once I get the Developers I need this post will be closed.

Thank you!

-- Best Regards, Ethan



*The Custom Gamemode will not be released to the public before completion for copyright reasons. It will be a difficult game type to be coded so let me know in your application if you are up to this challenge. (I will be having only 1 JS Developer working on this plugin, that developer will share all rights to this gamemode with myself.)

I would apply for the developer position, mainly because I used to love SoupPvP, but seeing that you are asking us to start off free until you get donations, it's very risky.

However, if you were to pay back a certain amount (let's say $150 for a core plugin) in a certain amount of time (no matter if the server started/failed), I think the decent developers would be interested. Making us do free work, and then agreeing to a monthly contract after the server release is risky, since the server may not even start, or will fail.

If you're interested in doing that, hit me up with a PM. As for other developers, what I stated above would be a nice deal for you guys, I suggest you take it if the original poster agrees

good luck with that. MineHQ already tried and it did not work out.

MCTeams turned out to be horrible with their reset and we arent looking at Teams. We are looking at revamping gamemodes with a Soup aspect, totally different from Teams. Also MineHQ had no drive for it, the were focused on other things like HCTeams and the up and coming PotionPvp

1. It's Java, not JavaScript, JavaScript is primarily (but not limited to) web development mainly.

2. You don't have to, but get a budget for some pay, decent developers won't bother with this because they can just get paid somewhere else (may I also say pretty well too). If you get some for free then they can just leave randomly whenever with no reprocussions, this creates problems for you.

3. Good programming is costly most of the time, I would say coding is 100x harder than system administration, marketing, building, terraforming or management, programmers spend a lot of time and effort, this is another reason why I'd steer away from just doing "donation cuts" or whatever.

Good luck in your journey finding people (even though I honestly find it will be difficult as you are asking way too much for free), however I may be completely wrong, you never know

Hope your network does well, I don't play soup anymore as I don't play the game, just code for it now, it would be good to see another decent soup server

I do appreciate the tips and comments, and I do not expect a huge surge of people to want to assist me for free. Im just looking for some good hearted people and in the future they can expect pay (Thats their incentive for staying around). Also I dont care if they leave I have opened the server as a Google registered Business so everything on the server is under copyright of me and the business itself, so if they decide they want to leave and screw me by taking everything then they should think twice because I have all the rights in the world to sue them.[DOUBLEPOST=1462568175][/DOUBLEPOST]

Budget it tight so I cannot guarantee pay right away. Also there is no contracts as of now, if you want to leave after a period of time go ahead, but the work done for the server will be registered under it and I have copyright claims over all of it, so there is no way you can steal the work. (I may be able to allow some work to be given back to the original Developer instead of keeping it.) Its not even too risky either, I mean what do you lose? Some time? Maybe. Thats about it, if it fails I cant use any of it anyways so its not like I can steal the work.
