MANNA

[Rod]

What happened to the manna, Tom?

[tsptalk]

It seemed to be useless and inconsistent. Someone new would write two posts and be higher than a regular poster. I didn't think we needed it.You?

The mana system didn't work right on ptcrew.com either. Several of us asked Aycan about it and, basically, it takes several hundred users to actively use it before it works properly. Useless indeed.

Did you write your own board rolo or are you still using Wow?

Tom discontinued it because I wasn't being justly rewarded with the maximum amount. :l

I junked wowbb a long time ago and switched to phpNuke, which incorporates phpbb. I did write code to import wowbb accounts and posts into phpNuke (Oh yeah, I need to release that to the public, forgot.)

They are all open source freeware with many mods available. I did quite a bit of customising and integrating, too, like an event calendar, photo gallery, how-to, reviews, etc. I haven't touched it in a while, but I am looking forward to tinkering again. I want to try a more streamlined phpbb content management system and want to import TSPtalk's contentto a shadow site and you can let me know what you think.

You'll have to explain that to me later or via email. I'm leaving now andthis thread will likely be lost in the sea of posts when I get back.

I have a bunch of good TSP domain names if you need one :). (I own tsp.net). I've also considered starting IRA Talk.com if I ever do this full time. Right now it points to TSP Talk as do most of my domain names.

No, not at all. I was just curious.:)
