Are you going to do something special for Gendou.com's 10th year Anniversary? Drinks, cake, party? ;P

For #1, there's not much to teach, it's a coded site, someone with the know how could take over with little effort.

For #7, there's a lot of ways to judge that, some of us contribute monthly in terms of money to the site, some people chat a lot more then post, some people post like crazy, and even then you have to look at quality over quantity, because anyone can flood a site with complete nonsense.

Just to chime in on 12 and 13, he does the quality level of work where I should expect he'd hope to be paid for his services, building a site isn't an easy thing when you're looking for something good and functional, as for BT trackers:

1. Did you teach anyone the code of this site to succeed you after your demise?

2. Why did you choose to create your own website from scratch instead of using existing forums & website database code packages?

3. Has Gendou.com received any media attention? How would you react if Gendou.com ever received media attention?

4. How would you describe gaining experience creating this website?

5. Do you think Gendou.com should receive some kind of recognition?

6. Why is HTML used in the forums instead of BBCode?

7. Who is the most active user?

8. Any moderator who is currently active?

9. How is a user qualified for moderation?

10. How would you rate the code knowledge of the users in general?

11. Anyone stayed active ever since they joined?

Good choice, normally. They don't often give you problems, do they?

Seraphna, that works in theory. However, as a rule, when things break, they break unexpectedly. For example, my web host just screwed up my /mnt/backup directory, which broke uploads, since I archive them on the backup file server to make efficient use of space. I had to fix things by myself for the time being!

Essentially as long as you write a website up to standards and keep things relatively inside the box, any time a software upgrade happens, withstanding some REALLY oddly put together Apache or CF setups, you should have little to no site breakage, and when you do it's because something's been removed from language standards.

I tend to stick to basic PHP and HTML on my sites if I can help it, sticking within 5.0's boundaries.

When server software us upgraded or changed, it can cause problems.
The best way to avoid this is to write good code that can adapt easily to a changed environment.

I see. So it's pretty lax once everything is in place, except for the occasional bug. Thanks.

When things go smoothly, all I have to do is upload songs, and deal with people. Dealing with problems happens every once in a while, like server outages, or bugs to fix. Gotta pay the bills, that keeps the site running, lol.

I'll be starting my Website Administration program in college about 2 months from now, so I'm interested to know this.

What are the main types of work you do on this site? I realize that you did all the coding, and you fix problems as they crop up, but what other things do you have to deal with on a regular basis in order to keep this site up and running?

Quick reply, post reply, modify post, edit profile (signature, about me), edit lyrics are all the same still.
Music search seems fixed, but the two drop menus in the forum search are still the same. However, the two outside functions are fine.

It seems like your form inputs have a bad background color.
I added the CSS: form input { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
Tell me if it's better now.

Quick reply:



Post reply:



Search bar (forum):



I highlighted that part because the background was exactly the same color.
Others that I didn't provide that have the same issue is the music search bar,
and I even checked out the similar issue with editing/add lyrics and whatnot.

Seems to have affected all these related features of the site.

[edit] Editing a post has the same issue, as well as the entire edit profile page.

DA, can you post a screen shot? Maybe I can fix this problem in the CSS.
