test with the latest code fixed ...   <?php //This file cannot be viewed, it must be included defined('IN_EZRPG') or exit; /* Class: Module_FindPlayer Shows a list of members. */ class Module_FindPlayer extends Base_Module { /* Function: start Displays the members list page. */ public function start() { //Require login requireLogin(); if (isset($_GET['username'])) { $username = ($_GET['username']); if (isset($_GET['maxlevel'])) { $maxlevel = ($_GET['maxlevel']); // if username, maxlevel and minlevel is set if (isset($_GET['minlevel'])) { echo "find function"; // if username and maxlevel is set } else { echo "find function"; } } // if username and minlevel is set elseif (isset($GET['minlevel'])) { echo "find function"; } // if username is set else { echo "find function"; } } elseif (isset($_GET['maxlevel'])) { $maxlevel = ($_GET['maxlevel']); // if maxlevel and minlevel is set if (isset($_GET['minlevel'])) { $minlevel = ($_GET['minlevel']); echo "find function"; } // if maxlevel is set else { echo "find function"; } } // if minlevel is set if (isset($_GET['minlevel'])) { $minlevel = ($_GET['minlevel']); $query = $this->db->execute('SELECT `username`, `level` FROM `<ezrpg>players` WHERE `level` > ?, ORDER BY `id` ASC LIMIT ?,50', array($minlevel), array($page * 50)); } // if nothing is set else { echo "search page"; } } } function find() { if (isset($_GET['page'])) { $page = (intval($_GET['page']) > 0) ? intval($_GET['page']) : 0; } else { $page = 0; } $members = $this->db->fetchAll($query); $prevpage = (($page - 1) >= 0) ?

I have no clue, it just started happening - we're looking at it right now.

Have you tried my suggestion fanatic?

Microsoft didn't enforce you to use IE. apple doesn't do the same as you can install firefox if you want to. You just can't get rid of it completely without effort. Not that it matters a lot because they'll find a way to make you install it anyhow. In my eyes, they just give you a free product extra which enabled extra features... Still you buy that product, no one is forcing you to buy at as you have choices enough. Heck, why don't we just sue hardware manufactures because they sell their product with an OS on top of it! I find that worse than having IE installed on my windows ...   my apologies on that. So, yes let's get back on topic. Great initiative to release a developers edition so developers who do not wish to run a game can still create modules for a lesser cost!

Well spud, sadly enough laws are a complicated thing and they are different all over the place. Here in belgium you have a natural righted person, a limited righted entity, a nameless, but full righted entity and quite a few more and they all have different details. However, that is rather different from a product itself. NWE is a package, the core, some modules, a template, some documentation and a license... for the total price of $100. What you really pay for is the license and the core of the engine more than the actual modules and other code/work. You're free to uninstall the modules and what not or upload another template without issue. Those extra modules/templates are just given to you freely to give the work more body. It's when you violate the tos/t&c that the license will be revoked. I'm quite sure you also agree with that when you buy it. And before you say, but "the core and license only costs $20 when you look at the developers version ..." Well no, the product also costs $100, he's just giving you a discount and booking a loss for other "business opportunities" which are perfectly fine and defensible ;) Again, whether it's 100% correct/legal/illegal. I don't have a clue as I'm no lawyer.   @alain. In that example, microsoft did have to change the way they made a browser available on systems from the EU. Which was utter bull imho as they didn't force you to use it. You could simply download something else if you didn't like it. Price of the OS stayed the same though as it should.

I'm running it on my toaster so I can bake cookies with it!   edit: so I'm on topic. I'm currently gathering ideas to create something that's rather unique, but fairly large.

@lithium, that's all fine... @Fanatic You are missing a closing parenthesis }. Depending on where you want to place the function find(), you either need to close the class afterwards (line93) or you still need to close the public function start() (line 71) The issue lies around line 71/93, notice that the closing bracket is positioned to close the class, but if that were the case you're not closing the start() - function. I'm not sure what editor you use, but I suggest you take a new one, preferably one with live debugging (and syntax highlighter of course) while you type out code. Together with keeping a nice structure like you do (and ezRPG has) it's rather easy to spot the issue. My suggestion would be openkomodo/komodo edit (same thing, it just has two names).

Staff members do not receive a staff status here automatically they can however mail me if they would like a position here as well.   The activity and size is limited within that community, but that wasn't a requirement. We wanted to give the people a place where they could go on with their development and usage of the ezRPG engine and in the mean time boost the activity levels of ezRPG.

without saying it is or it isn't. What makes you think it is illegal to take such action? Do you have any documents or text that we can actually read from a source? Not that it will make a difference, but having something to read might shed some more light on it. Probably more than "it's illegal"

Aww shooo! I was hungry at the time of posting that. Now say welcome to the new people or no dinner for you :o

Welcome to all of ezRPG! Let us know if you would like to see extra boards added, add a little bit of an explanation/motivation though, so we know why you would like us to create it.

Well Octarine, I'm glad you replied. To be honest, I would be disappointed if you hadn't. First of all, these new rules are aimed at all new content that appears on the site. The rules were not in place or anywhere public, so we can't really blame the users, and I won't either. Under "content" we understand anything from a simple reply to a whatever you can submit on this site basically.   Currently there is nothing more than just these forum boards, and the "e-zine" that acts on the front-page. If we had promoted your thread to an article, it would still be there, even if after you deleted your posts.   I do not, you still have all rights over your content. You deleted all your posts, didn't you? It's not available for us anymore. It's not going to change in any way. It's just that you'll have to ask us when a certain post might be promoted (reused) as you can't delete that yourself. And also as I specified in my previous post in an answer to spud. Are we going to copy and reused everything, no of course not. But if we were ever to add an example in something, I don't want to get in trouble later because you changed your mind and do no longer want to co-operate. Truth being said, this rule was always in place since the very start of these forums as "ce/pg", I just wrote it down.   No, 2.2.0 before posting. Sometimes you will get an error during developing something, while you could make a post around your issue, you could also do a quick google, type in "T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM" and notice right away that it's a semi-colon. We aren't saying that you have to search an hour before you post an issue, as most issues will probably be rather unique. But sometimes they aren't, and you could find an answer to your problem much faster by doing a simple search. Just do it for yourself.   well, many people want a stricter enforcement, well ... now we have rule which says you might lose your post if you don't adhere to the rules. Can someone still complain "abuse of staff powers"? No, we warned the people. Simple reasoning. Staff are in the same boat here. You know me well enough to know by now that I do not care whose post it is. If I see a post that doesn't belong somewhere it's gone, whether it's luke's, alain's or coldblooded. Not happy with a post? click on the report button. It's there for a reason.   I don't see why we should forbid alains engine on the forum, it's welcome as any other and he's allowed to post about it in any board that has got to do with game engines. However, you do have a point that it shouldn't be in any other boards. If you do see a post, send me the link, or click on report. The report system is quite a functionality, you do need to press it however.   We will, but give the users at least the time to change them?   That's what you think it means. If a staff member moves a thread and the thread gets moved back to it's original board later on, well then the staff member handled with the best intentions in mind and should not be yelled at. Do read the "as long as it suits the situation".   mail me, and if you have a problem with me you can either try to contact another admin or mail me anyhow, I can take criticism if it's posted in a constructive and respectful manner.   That's because I haven't made any decision on any existing product. All current engines were added by previous owners or admins. I do think my technical knowledge is larger enough though, but I'm not going to rate engines/scripts on their technical level at all. If you're not prepared to hand over one full working version so that I can take a look at, then why should I trust your product? What makes it qualified to have a place on these forums? I know you'll answer with something in the line of "these boards are of no worth to me", but I do not care. For all I know your engine could be a rebranded copy, or simply something that doesn't work when being used with the documentation. It's not about technical skill or how great the performance is of the engine. It's about doing a simple check on what a person might want to sell on here. I think we can both agree that scammers shouldn't have a place on these boards. If I'd simply allow anything, it would be too easy.   I'm sorry you feel that way, I know better and I have actually learned quite a lot from you already. But I can not decide for others whether they want to actually learn something from you or not. That's their choice and we'll both have to respect that. But this seems rather unrelated to the actual matter of the post though.   I can only learn from experience. These rules have been on the admin boards long enough and all suggestions by other staffers are within these rules. As you clearly can see, these rules aren't set in some unbreakable concrete. They will be updated or changed when required. But the lack of was just disturbing. I'm trying to change some things around here with effective means, but as the popular saying goes "Rome wasn't built in a day", well mwg won't change in a day either. We're a community and I try to keep everyone happen when possible and take into account all suggestions that have been made, you need to make them of course, as you do now.   I know I am, I know everyone is... but it's still hard to draw that very thin line between on & off topic.   There is a difference between making a post within the right category and within another thread that has got nothing to do with it. Again, use the report button if you think something is wrong. Making a report means it ends up with each staff member personally. If staffer A deletes it, it's still visible to staffer B. Can you make a thread about ezRPG/MCC/NWE in game projects? I don't see why not ... however NWE posts shouldn't be in the MCC category.   dabs & cold are not real staff on here, they are owners of the forums though. Maybe we should look into separating those two from the rest though. I quote from http://makewebgames.io/showthread.php/39796-Makewebgames-Mccodes-Relation   Okay great, but what does this have to do with the rules and such? And what fully features product are you talking about? There are some interesting ideas out here yes, but if I do want some information about the storwize v7000 in combination with svc setups, I'll just go look in our KB and not on these forums. These forums are still meant for hobbyists, not for professional daily use when you run into an issue and expect high quality problem solving like in a KB.   If I forgot to reply to something or I should go deeper into something, I'm sure you will repeat it in your next reaction.

Hence why there is an "however"- clause, it's there for a reason, other than adding some random characters that make up a sentence. You won't see us claiming claiming any works as our own. Common sense also says that one would ask permission before they will reuse the content, but if we have to ask the author each time we would like to promote an post to an article or anything of those likings, it's becoming rather unworkable. Consider these 2 situations. A user wants to delete his account and preferably anything he has posted. If we were to delete all posts of said user, all threads that have been posted in might lose their value as those threads might become unreadable. With this we cover ourself against deletion of that content, while the user can just be set to "Guest" and the threads stay intact. As you can also read "the request may be declined", it doesn't mean it always will be declined. We will look at each request individually. We decide to make an (e)book (non commercial, not planned, but purely hypothetical) At some point our ebook is published and you decide that you no longer wish to be a part of a discussion within a thread on the forum. Say, that it becomes a rather good hit, and you wish to get some coin out of it and wish to see everything removed, eventhough you agreed in the beginning and after we have already distributed some copies. You could end up holding us accountable for your losses or whatever... If we don't protect ourself here, we could end up in a rather difficult situation. We added that section just for those reasons and with the future in mind. No discussion possible afterwards.

Going off topic now, but doing something with a database is always rather interesting I'd say.

Dear mwg community, Dear ezrpg users, As MWG, we wanted to promote and support more engines than just a few. Since ezRPG always had his home here, and is from a certain quality, we wanted to boost the activity of it. With the recent happenings around the ezRPG boards, we decided to contact the current administrators and proposed a merger, they accepted. So we're proud to say that the ezRPG boards will move over to MakeWebGames.com and get their place right here. As of right now there is only a few boards available for ezRPG, but boards can be added as the community requests. For those members that do not have an account yet, please create a new account with us and let us hear your voice! You're more than welcome. If there is anything on your mind, let us know and we'll do our best to help you out and make you comfortable around here! As usual, ideas, comments and questions are all welcome!   Ref. http://ezrpg.mybbmods.net/showthread.php?tid=1531 http://makewebgames.io/forumdisplay.php/328-ezRPG

Fellow members, There is a new thread which lists all rules and some possible FAQs. We would like to ask that all you read through this once so you know what the actual rules are on this place. Most of the rules are actually common sense or were already in place verbally. We've written them down now to avoid any confusion. With this we hope to avoid certain situations which could have been prevented rather simple. The thread will grow as we learn from situations, as we can't possibly describe every situation. These new rules are of course in place as of right now. And as any place on the internet, we reserve the right to change our rules without prior notification when required. This does not mean MWG will go in a lock-down, but it will become quite a bit stricter. We hope common sense will take the upper hand and that we do not have to become too strict as we wish to keep freedom of speech possible. This needs to happen with a certain respect in mind though.   Ref. http://makewebgames.io/showthread.php/39806-The-big-MWG-FAQ-amp-Rules-thread Any comments, suggestions or ideas are welcome as always! Simply reply on this thread.

Nice share spud! Definitely going to read up on these posts and such.

it already is, albeit the v1-lite version. But it's under the GPL.

I'm unsure what the actual thread content is going on about, but I could no longer refrain from posting here...   @RulerOfZu, There is no official warning, nor a consideration of one on your account. Nothing has been discussed between staff, so if coldblooded has sent you anything to date with the possibility of a warning, you are free to ignore it. Whatever he is saying is indeed bollocks as djkanna has already said. This is still a forum where one is supposed to be able to express his thoughts, albeit in a proper and constructive way. Feel free to contact me about this matter, just keep in mind that I can not read your pm.

basically, anything that has a browser*

Check your browser ... if tis says game.com/lottery.php, you might need to open up that file and not travelagency.php. PHP is an interpreted language, not a compiled one.

Maybe you need to talk to srachit again :) But $750 for a full game won't cut it. Not even if one is allowed to use an existing game script. Any self respecting developer, who's not bored out of his mind, will accept such offer. I'm sorry to say, but that's just the reality.

Those are registered trademarks are far as I know, best thing you can do is contact the legal department of nintendo/nintendo creatures/gamefreak to be sure? If you were to be a site that's purely providing information, you could call upon the "freedom-of-use-right" (or whatever it is called) as long, you give all credits to the original owner and are not making any money of it. However, the second you receive 0.01 cents or less, you need to have permission of the licensee. It doesn't matter whether you're making a loss on it, or whether it is just to cover your costs. As soon as you're receiving some money, you need to have permission.

First of all "what the hell does this mean" is not an appropiate title for a post ... do change it please. What can I tell about that error. One of the queries you're trying to run for that action, contains an incorrect synxtax, and it's breaking on it. However line 1 is not the actual line, so you can ignore that. I can't tell much else though, as we'd need more information of the query/file. Try to find out which query it is and get back to us. We're nothing with just this error, and neither are we with just the whole file.

Good! Exactly where you should start ... the basics :-P no point in trying to jump in the middle of all the action. You'll get lost, especially in C/C++ as it doesn't leave a lot of room for mistakes, which wouldn't even be considered mistakes in other languages.
