PHP one: I have to admit i did go back once because i misclicked (fking laptop) on question 11.  Ah well not so bad lol I'm guessing jordan actually did it more than once... (not accusing and i don't expect a arguement but seems weird 20/20 on both) pm me if im wrong and ill edit this post saved the flaming :)

I'm sure they'll add a forget password if you actually posted it in the v3 ideas post they could even add it into v2 if you added the idea before they finish with the bug fixing and so on.

I love this project and im sure people will notice my love for it. Although i will not be releasing the engine system for a while after i release the game just to make sure there is no issues and im sure the inspiration from the players on the game will be good. Also i didn't actually think you was being pushy i forgot to post on this with updates.

Ah damn i apologise for my lack of updates on this project, im having a few computer issues at the moment but technically no the percentage has not gone up due to new ideas added to the meld so actually im less % complete than it says because i had more ideas to add therefore making it more complex and unique. I will give afew snipets soon and maybe a screenshot or two when i get back working on the project. Thank you although for looking into my project i hope to have it done in the near future but as i am the only author of the script it's rather time consuming and sometimes i just need to leave it for a few days (im sure anyone who programs their own projects alone can understand that). If you pre-register i believe it subscribes you also which then i can send you information in the future.

just need the captcha putting on lol @ that though spud yeah strlen in register would be good, it is on the staff panel.. but can't really see anymore since some muppet fedded the staff account (i'd so ban the mwg accont of the newb who did it since they log ips in staff logs) so spud the only one to find anything decent?

ah good point dom, EZrpg is available for free zeggy worked very hard on that and ZAP is open source but i don't think people have put much into that yet either way anyone of the two are quite easy to build on but don't have the community MC does. If you have prior PHP knowledge i would suggest EZrpg/ZAP but if i recall you did say you didn't have much PHP knowledge and not many freelancers on here will work in engines they are not sure of so support for either of them may be a little hard to fine. (maybe easier for ez as zeggy is on here most of the time) Good luck with your choice.

I believe a member of mwg did a securer version of lite but i don't know exactly how secure it is, ill take a look when i get my computer back up and running for ya :D but personally i'd suggest maybe going for a paid version the free version isn't that well done.

@ SlimyStud - so im guessing you've seen the code and can say that as a fact? If so post some here would be nice to see... @ layout discussion - The layout is basic because people should change it, if it was good then people would keep it and you'd have 100 games what would look the same although the layout should be easier to edit i do agree with that. A simple css file and some editing of the header could easily acheive that, why not post up a header/style file and get people to use it... it's easier than saying it should be done...

i really do hope the reputation of mc does actually get better it will bring more members protentionally to mwg and more money to mod makers, gfx deisngers and so on.

have i done something to offend you or something, i mean i just offer you something which usually people charge for to enhance your revamp of lite and educate you in the future for your engine and you come back with abusive comments. If i have offended you please pm me and we can sort this out civily but if not i will not comment on your posts i apologise for trying to help.

Interesting how you'd say that, ill take a look at this when i get my computer back on line see how secure it actually is... for you guys if you'd like?

Ah sorry my bad i assumed you'd of got maybe a little to post snipets since yesterday.

Too be honest not all the issues even in the forum have been fixed on MWG look at the examples Cronus and MTG did neither were actually secure (no offense to them) but they didn't actually spend time on them they just simply edited the exploits they knew im guessing MC finally spent time on the patch therefore it's more secure. If they have looked at the code properly it should be quite good... I did a minor test (due to computer issues) and found nothing, i did concentrate on the forum but still... When i get my computer up and working again ill give more information and do a more in depth test, i'd love to actually see anyone give it a go though. but come on guys stop the bickering it's a demo not a debate on it being late, atleast it's been done.

@ Daniel - I have been a member of CE/MWG for about 5 years roughly and never once asked to be a moderator (yet i was once a moderator of the tv shows section) so i don't see where your going with that but seriously do you have to just post rubbish on topics i mean i did actually say contact me via pm if you have a issue... Also where did dom actually say i was the only one to ever hack MC? @ dom - I actually do believe mcv3 structure is going to be rather good if they take into consideration all the ideas which were posted on here, i think i actually contributed to some ideas myself. My script actually has afew of the ideas which people posted which is why i believe if they do it right it will be quite good. (I put in afew of the ideas before they were posted and afew when they were posted in a seperate forum topic). Why don't people actually try hacking it then, i surely will spend quite afew hours trying to on thursday...   @ EQ - Well to be honest for some of the fixes on the forum they would need semi strong coding.

how about afew snipets of the code maybe some explanation of your basic structure, easy to use/edit?

my opinion mainly comes from the future projects i will be undertaking with my own engine which is why i have a somewhat less sceptical opinion. When they sort out the few bugs left in the script im sure many of the long time clients/new clients will appreciate it greatly i don't really see a downside to this patch. Give me one reason why this script is worse than original mcv2.0 without it actually effecting yourself. I still can't see anyone claiming a hack as of yet and it's been up since friday which goes to show it's rather strong scripting behind the previous hacked files. The pros to this patch are that clients of MC won't have to rely on freelancers to secure their script and therefore are getting value for their money. If they have made this much effort on v2 im sure v3 will be quite amazing. EQ LOL Dabs you considering posting a snipet? i would really like to see this also.

simpler solution would be add strlen into reg to disallow single space name and i believe they use regex which only allows a single space at one given time so would it then be possible to make the name ' a ' which in my eyes isn't actually a bug it's just inventive name making. EQ i almost cried when i read your last post i love it i really do yeah im sure there is a reason for my recent review of MC scripts but that's mainly due to the amount of work i've done with mc scripts in the past i personally would know exactly how hard they worked on this new patch and appreciate it entirely, if you want to call me a brown nose for actually reviewing the situation then go ahead but you did actually say you registered and tried one exploit in preferences... does that even give you the right to warent a opinion on the script? (no offense intended i love you all but come on) They worked hard yes maybe it took them a while to actually get with the program but as of lately i believe they have done more work than they did in the 6+ years they weren't around. They offer actual support now and are taking into note peoples complains and peoples wants for mcv3 they are even patching mcv2 so that older users who are waiting won't have to pay out hundreds of dollars to people who may not even secure the script properly. Personally i'd trust the retailer over the freelancer anyday (i know im the freelancer) they have tried and like i've said afew times earlier no bugger has hacked it yet... so why complain. Danny, i didn't actually see what you said but got a issue why not PM me. Sniko, you a good lad actually seeing the bigger picture. i do wish the MC team all the best Also incase anyone is trying to get in touch with me i'd like to inform everyone that my Motherboard blew (LOL) so im finally going to upgrade (i had this horrid emachine esys motherboard). Personally i think the only people who will complain about this are the people who have/do security for mcv2 games as the only way you'll get business is if you work for people without a mc license which i don't see many besides maybe a few doing. wow i've typed alot but without a pc is boring as hell lol COD BO FTW! Although some people may actually only be disliking this due to the time frame it took them to do it but you really have to admit they finally did it and considering they have only been back like 6-8 months they have done quite abit in that time frame.

ah EQ no surprise it was you lol yeah trim would be a good idea on reg filtering/staff name edits and preferences still no hacks, must of done something right :)

yeah actually me too i would love to see a snipet from maybe the forum.php mid section just too see what they've done, but yeah every script has bugs which is why they do testing which is what this post is all about so i don't see why all the flaming is even relivent personally i'd delete them but take the bad with the good. Danny seriously grow up.

wow children, seriously that is a lot better than 2.02c as anyone here actually hacked it? or is this just a hatred on mc thing going on... List the bugs and im sure they'll be fixed immediately when they have time, i myself in the past have been rather harsh with MC but they have done alot more than people would actually think about.   Mail/Events that i didn't even think was a bug lol I'm guessing id 3 was made in staff panel which means a minor issue with filtering in the user make or edit.... come on your just being picky cunts now give 'em a list of the files which allow the deletion of none existent stuff and im sure they'll get onto it Does friendslist also have the blacklist bug? (i assume they did them seperately therefore one maybe not buggy). This obviously is a demo i mean they ain't released it for download therefore it is a demo, they did also say hack it which i ain't seen happen as of yet i just see afew people bitching about losing money and finding any excuse to disrespect the hard work put into the patch. I assume everyone will think ill be one of the people dissing on this but really they have quite well patching the forum issues, cmarket, itemmarket and various other files. Anyone actually hacked it? They even patched the quote issue on forums LOL and i thought i was the only one who figured that one out (bet alot of you claim that one now) Good work MCC really... Don't believe someone actually banned the admin account... seriously how childish are some of you, do you need your hand holding or them to suspend functions just so you don't hurt yourselfs?

and if people were smart AIDS wouldn't be here but it happened didn't it...

It can be helpful if you really wanna use it but it doesn't entirely secure that's true i don't think one function out their will entirely secure something, it takes the understanding of what should be filtered.   EDIT: Can a admin please remove that, danny what are you thinking people will actually try that, wanna pay out compensation to anyone who loses all their users?

seems pointless really and because it's integer it will allow negative and decimals so why not just use a simpler method.

I'm a little rusty with sprintf but: $var = +27836; printf('var = %d', $var) // outputs 27836 lol i ain't used it in quite awhile though i can't actually remember if it removed the + lol and i can't be arsed to test it if im wrong so be it.

Any relation to fubar.com?
