Coding Community

[-Xiangu-]

I don't really see why the section is needed when sections already exist, it doesn't really matter if less experienced people reply they will still give advice...

I don't understand why sections like the coding help is added when forum management say there are alreayd too many so there won't be an anime/manga/GTA/and other suggest forums forum.

I agree.

Me and MAD have been discussing the addition of the Coding Community all night. The main idea of it is to offer users a place to ask a question in a Forum where they know they will get a quick, correct and friendly reply.

It seemed to me that a lot of threads where users need help turn into flame wars (I'm sure management are working on fixing this problem) so I thought this would be a great help for the community. As you may remember, every time the forum "trolling" has come into a thread, members always say that the Web Development forums are one of the worst places where users get flamed for asking questions, etc.

This new Forum will be a great addition for members who need a quick or detailed reply and it will also serve as an archive for Web Development related FAQs.

I'm certain this Forum will be a great addition to the Web Dev. forums and will benefit it and the Forum's members in the long-run.

But then the other forums which you request help will die and be pointless forums then?

Along with just as its named a "certain name" doesnt make it any more popular as in you'll get a direct reply. There's still 50% you wont. "Web Dev FAQS" Dont we have a Tutorial forum for them? ... Yet another pointless forum then?

In this new forum, only a few people will be able to reply to threads created, that's where the difference is. The forum you mention is where anyone can help others even if they are not sure aren't active in the coding forums. If people prefer this new one, we can delete the one you mentioned. We don't want to force people to use this new forum but rather give them a choice, there's no harm in that I don't think .

Why not just do that to the current forum?

As I added to my post, the Forum should still remain active as a place for people to discuss issues and help each other.

Only the specially chosen dedicated Forum Coders are able to reply to questions which means an answer WILL be given.

Also, tutorials don't always answer FAQs, that's pretty obvious in itself. You don't need a tutorial for every single commonly asked question.

Invent you should apply!

Like I said, we don't want to force users to this new forum but rather give them another option. Seeking coding and design related help isn't as easy as it could be. This should make it easier .

But its another forum we dont exactly need, when the others specially the forum shown below; is exaclty the same pretty much? Should of renamed that forum..

Web Design & Coding Related Help
Get your Website Design help within here.

Another forum 1 won't do any harm tbh.

Like I said, we don't want to force users to this new forum.

Exactly, even though many users may dissagree this Forum isn't a dictatorship and the Web Dev. members should have the choice for their question to involve a discussion where several different (probably all correct) answers may be given or they can post it in another Forum where they will get a single answer quickly.

Then maybe you "webers" should make one big FAQ? or rename Tutorial forum to Tutorials and FAQ's ? Would be much better!

Like I said, we don't want to force users to this new forum.

If anyone has a question, they can use the three forums i supplied or private message coders or even create a thread, i mean if i wanted help i would want help from as many people as i could.

This new forum limits the help as well lets face if, you have to be a member of the group to reply to threads (am i correct?) surly that will limit replies.

People STILL dont know about the Pixel Artist Group...

I do not like the idea, we may not approve of the members in the team therefore not request for there help. Making a website is not an average thing a typical teenager does, some see it as a chore for work. I do not agree with this, however if your forum is showing Dragon Fable advertisements (Animé orientated), I don't see the harm in adding and Animé forum into the graphics section. Although these are not Habbox staff but just 'dedicated coders', I do not see why they should get their own support thread.

It's easier said than done, lol

It shouldn't, infact it won't limit replies as I've already said we will ONLY be allowing dedicated members to be a part of the group and offer replies. I myself will be checking the Forum every day and I'm sure the other members of the group will aswell.

Again, we will not be letting any 'joe bloggs' join the group but only those who members respect and know will be able to offer them reliable help. Also, one of the main reasons for this new forum is to try to combat the amount of "forum trolling" which a lot of members have been complaining about recently.
