Posted July 31, 201213 yr I know that the purpose of karma is to rate users in their helpfulness, and thank yous are for rating posts. But will there ever be a way to put that data to work? So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 1, 201213 yr It is easy to put it to work, just harder to come up with ideas for it besides just like auto-ranks and such. So... any ideas?
August 1, 201213 yr Author Well, in the bugs and errors board, maybe you can sort the auto-find related topics by thanks/user karma? So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 2, 201213 yr Author Ouch. Um, you could make it so that the the topic search on the bug reports board sorts the results by thank yous in the topic? So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 5, 201213 yr Except that would cause yet another *doubly* linked table search in a *VERY* large database.
August 5, 201213 yr Author Except that would cause yet another *doubly* linked table search in a *VERY* large database. Not really, just take the five posts that come up after the first search. Unless you use SQL, in which case, ouch. So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 5, 201213 yr Author Of course it uses SQL. Do you know any high-end forum that uses something else? No. A hardcore minecraft forum would use java. (Don't take that seriously, please. I would hate to die.) So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 5, 201213 yr Author Erlang? Erlang.... Must... Research....... ERLANG!!! Java done right! Yay! So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
August 5, 201213 yr It is not Object-Oriented. Well, it is, by the original definition of OO. Java used C++'s definition of OO, which is horribly wrong and utterly nasty for multi-threading.

Of course it is. I hate concurrency issues. So, what would happen if I did push that shiny red button over there? ... Really? ... Can I try it? ... Damn.
November 13, 201212 yr I really must say, if you search 'erlang java done right' you will find this post second, or at least I did. Thanks for your time... Hopefully I can reply soon after you reply, but I'm busy, anyways. I can't wait to start working on my mod. I haven't worked on it in a while but it is on Github. It needs much more organization and work, I have lots of plans.
