Used this modification as a base in my game (but recoded to work with my entire codebase), and it was prepared nicely. Thank you for sharing.

Just some updates: We've implemented Stock Market and Lottery features today, hope you'll come and join us as we launch. :)

I see you've used CodeIgniter, that's exactly what I've used at http://www.criminaloutlaws.com but with a lot more edits and commitment. Good luck with the sale, but I can tell there's going to be too much work involved.

I know I can do much better than copying Torn, but my first attempt is to build a familiar interface to player's and then work on that to build our unique aspect of it. As you can see, not everything is copied to Torn and it's probably just the menu as far as I'm aware. We don't have any frontend developers on board, neither do we have designers, so we're just trying to build something that we can workaround for now. Thanks!

A lot more leading innovations have been put live, and we hope to bring many many more! Please do check out the game and let us know what you think. Plus, it's essentially hack-proof now. We have very high grade security, and basic rules of safety implemented so everything is well protected and fast simultaneously.

I think H4x0r666 :P

Sure, send me a PM with a bit more info.

I agree, we're a bit off track.

I'm looking to buy criminal-outlaws.com If anyone knows the owner Renegade or Boom, as it says on the website, please forward them to me. I'm presuming they're members on here because they intend to use it for a RPG game as stated on the website. I am willing to pay a good price. Thanks.

We recommend people to join! It's mostly complete and bug fixes are coming out every day.

Cleared my entire inbox. That might make things work :)

There are only a few places left to join our beta focus group.

Even I use a hotmail, so it doesn't necessarily degrade the professionalism of a person. But his language isn't exactly appealing to another either.

Hello, We've come to a great level of programming in our game, but to any standard, that won't quite cut it and to help us complete what we are doing then we are going to need some people to join in a focus group. You will have one of the most prestigious jobs in the game, which I will describe a bit later. These people will be required to be an active player, and available a couple of days a week. Anyone who is not logged in after 10 days will automatically be removed from the beta list, and their role will only last six months as our plans involve changing beta testers to make sure the game is not biased in its direction and caters with a good variety of minds. However, that does not mean we'll wash our hands off you and probably mean you could be given an opportunity elsewhere. The beta testing period will start on our official beta launch being on the 24th August 2011 which is when your role will begin, and you will see the latest features and debates available to you before anyone else where you'll also be able to debate exclusively with the team about what to do with the mockup or development and whether to put it live. I want people who are serious gamers, and care about the overall game and not just themselves, as they are exactly what I'm looking for. The beta testers will not just be testing in the 'beta' period, as they will be testing beta features when we launch out of beta and in full production. We've also employed some more temporary programmers and technicians to help with the protection and future development of the game, and also we're also seeking some good designers after receiving some not-so-good feedback about the game feel. Also storywriters are on the list to be employed, as we have had little focus in that aspect. We're a very small team but with big ambitions and intentions to reinvent a space (or even improve upon it). It's like the game you always wished MCCodes would be, to be a tad more ambitious. What will you get as a result? A special membership on your account as a 'Beta Tester' and free PRO membership as long as you are a beta testers. It will also give you a great advantage to create a trust relationship with our team, and get to be a part of something special (which is what we'd like to say). Welcoming applicants immediately. Application is only by PM or by e-mail (bilawal[at]ferple[d0t]com) - without the brackets.

If you read again, I said MySQL should only be for user-generated content. Assigning items to users is defined as 'user-generated content' in technical terms. Regarding the framework, not necessarily, it depends on what you use, we use CodeIgniter which only loads what you need so we avoid requesting non-critical files within our app. We store our arrays in external files, and just the way you make a MySQL request for items, we make a file import for the items array in a PHP file. And yes, we use most of them, as each type of app have different needs, we wouldn't consider using all of them unless they are needed. Even MySQL can be a cache in itself (which in one way is for us), which can be argued as another optimization technique.
