The last fat programmer I hired let the billing clock run and charged $8000 literally for almost nothing. He said he "felt bad" and would repay me with lots of work. I got nothing, no refund, and no response when I sent other project details to him. I guess my fault for trusting a fat programmer. Id still like to pop a cap in his fat arse.

There's a saying  "Patience is a virtue"
Why Patience is a virtue?
Following are some benefits of practicing patience, as well as some expanded explanations of why impatience is so unhelpful in your life. Exhibiting patience means that you can be persistent and stay in something for the long run. ... Patience is a virtue because it requires self-control.

Self control, not hard is it?

What kind of person codes and deploys a bot with the sole purpose of testing people's patience? Seriously, where's the virtue in that?

We can be confident that's the only reason these few bot players are here, because they add code for a refresh function so they don't get booted. Where they could just as easily add code for a press ready function so they don't get booted.

You really are a dipshit notto...

Good Morning Sir,

Sir why don't you just give this work to any professional software development company near you?

Because it would cost 5x more, and firms often use multiple programmers, who each have their own coding style and it only takes one to make a mess of the source. And why would it matter to them as its the company reputation, not theirs.

Ive dealt with firms before. They are messy unless youre dealing with very large and professionally managed projects, it is far better, especially in this case to go with an individual with their profile reviews at stake, if they do a bad job. I could almost do the coding for this myself. It needs only a reasonably experienced dev. But sometimes you get unlucky and hire a mess. I have long term relationships with developers in higher priority work. But they're focused on other apps

If you've ever hired programmers extensively before, you'd know its very hard to find a reliable one. We'll have to wait and see.

ok..let me know when my user name is back on the players list and i am able to log in 

[plolp]

But there is also the player "OMD" who does not play a single spin .
Night and day ....

I cancelled the contract with the programmer and told him where he can go. Waste of time. I have a to hire someone else now. He isnt even responding to refund request.


Regarding the deleted usernames, they'll be restored in the state they were at before. Dont create a new account with the same username because they'll be overwritten later.


This wont affect other users. Basically the programmer screwed up and logged in, thinking he'll test and clicked delete on users at the top. In admin settings the users are ordered from highest to lowest rank. He denied it but its bullshit.


Anyway i'll look at other programmers.

Look, I know I really shouldn't, but...........LOL!

Is a reset coming Steve as MPR stops on 1s, done all the usual you say clear this and everything else.
Don't you like the top of the leaderboard

[precogmiles]

I'm having the same issue.

[maestro]

Don't you like the top of the leaderboard

looks fine to me...

The programmer is working on the mods. Hes probably working on the server

The modification for moderators to boot and ban users is now complete.

Next we need to determine who will become moderators. It doesn't really matter how many moderators there are, as long as you're responsible. Although I prefer to have just a few moderators, who regularly play or are at least active forum members. Let me know if you want to be a mod.


MODERATOR GUIDELINES:

- If you receive a complaint about a member, first check :.rouletteplayers.org/leaderboard to see if they're actively playing.

- To immediately boot and ban a user, go to :.rouletteplayers.org/moderate and toggle "ban/unban" for the user (you need to be added as a moderator to see this page).

- Before you ban a player, try chatting them via the chat window. If they don't respond within about a minute, go to the moderation page and click "Ban". To undo, click "Unban".

- Use your common sense and only ban accounts that disrupt the game (such as bots).

Next I need to restore the accounts that were deleted by the stupid c*nt programmer who didn't know his ass from his elbow.

If your account was deleted, let me know and I'll see how i can restore it, including all your stats.

[nottophammer]

Your going to let someone like this be a Mod, Lord helps us
