First of: if this isn'tn the right place to ask, please either tell me where or move it for me :)

Anyway, on topic

I saw vstanced might change from a portal to a forum, nothing wrong with that BUT!
Since there are just a few good modders left and barely any new mods( once in a while someone releases something, all due respect for starters but 9O % of the mods released by starting modders are just piles of shit wich make games crash ) a few questions pop up in my head ...

1 why change it all when there is barely anything new to download?

2 if you change it all, why not give people who are on here for a longer time the permission to have them so much hated "VIP" mods, make something like the darkroom or whatever it's called where good modders can add people who are "loyal" to the game, the top modders deside who can join in on it and who not. I think i speak for alot of people when i say there is nothing left to do and yet we see so many cool looking mods passing by
PLEASE READ THIS! NO I DONT WANT TO START THE WAR AGAIN, I JUST POINT OUT WHAT IS DISTROYING THE COMMUNITY IN MY OPINION

on the sidenote: do we take our acount over to the forum if it becomes one?

cheers

So you want an oligarchy? :)) jkjk

JC said in the post that all data like articles, downloads, etc. will be transferred to the site. He is not sure whether it will be forum only or not to my knowledge, I could be wrong tho. He wants to upgrade the site, because the current CMS (Content Management System) is REALLY outdated and getting support/plugins is really hard as most of them are really outdated. Moving to the new site shouldn't affect most people. The only thing it would affect is maybe the threads that currently exist from what I've gathered.

VStanced administration isn't in charge of who gets "VIP" mods. It's not like they're being given out by anyone running the "VIP Secret Society". The only people who decide who gets them are the people who make them (and occasionally the people who leak or trade them, who are a pretty big problem).

Most modders who distribute "VIP" mods aren't even on here; usually those mods are passed around privately on Facebook or VK private messaging.

(Before anyone brings up my R33: It's not "VIP", it's WIP, as in "Work In Progress". It's not done. It's going to be released by this summer, but I can't say when because I'm waiting on a few things.)

im aware of what a vip and a wip is and also of how vips are given ( to trusted people ) there for i asked a special place on the forum where modders can hand out mods to only those who are on the website for a longer time ... for example: im on here for an avarage long time ( i think 3 to 4 years ), it's common sence that i know how biss goes and when something is given to me in trust i wont give it away, people like me can be added to that part of the forum so i can download a mod wich a guy who is on the site for only a month or so can't download.

Dude... look, sorry, but that's not how it works at all. If you want to get VIP mods, the best ways to get them are to:

1) post really nice screenshots, a lot of the time;
2) or make mods yourself and trade them for favors;
3) or personally go make friends with a modder who hands out VIP mods (you may have to learn Russian for that last one).

Again, most modders who give out "VIP" mods don't care at all about VStanced as a site.

(Not saying that this is GOOD for anybody. Just that this is the way it is.)

Is it appropriate to talk about the roll-playing situation in here?
Roleplaying is only for the bedroom.

Not an official thread, so, I'm guessing so.

Literally, everything about "VIP" mods (trading, stealing, leaking etc) would happen even if the VS wouldn't exist.

I think I understood idea ShadowTuner's idea, but isn't it why DarkSide was born? It would work, but I'm not sure that modders here are really happy to spread their unfinished work. Also - it'd help VIPs (read: work-in-progres mods) to leak even more.

Darkside has been kind of dead. It was there in the first place (about when GOM & VS were fine together) for our modders to test & share to other very trusted members. Now, at the "vk leaking" time, darkside is really dead.

Added 23 minutes later:

I don't want to start any arguments here nor fights. Just saying what's my point of view.

darkside has been dead for ages :) I have said it a few times, it was an idea.. that sorta worked but never really took off which is fair but old mods that are there still exists on the site, other than that there's nothing new there.

so basically what you're saying is keep the site as is and let it slowly die and give old members access to DS? that sounds very much like "give me mods"

SLR is one of the games VStanced supports, there's a lot to look forwards in the future, downloads is far from our main focus, forums, community, competitions is what we're here to do.

the poll is what will be the deciding point and obviously people want to keep the portal + forum idea so it'll stay, but this current site is going to be archived and new one brought up, fresh, full of new features and things the community wants.

it's just some ideas guys, all i care about is keeping the community alive and im not sure if this counts for alot of people but the mods is what keep me coming back to the site ( website or forum, whatever it will be in the future ) but with the ammount of mods being released lately coming back to the site is not realy an easy thing...
plus, someone who is on the website for more than 3 years can be trusted a bit more don't you think? it's not the " give me mods " idea i was looking for, it's the " The mods you guys create keep me interested in the community " idea why i sugested some idea's ^^

the thing I don't understand about people who want new mods, is why do you not attempt to just make some yourself? that's how I believe 99% of the modders started, I wanted a mod and I decided to try and learn, asked people, created threads, pm'ed etc and slowly I managed to put one and two together and learn how to get them going..

rather than focusing on mods I believe we'll slowly shift our focus on tutorials.

QUESTION!
Why when someone published a picture of the VIP mod, gets private messages with death threats? -_- Whats the problem? The leakers are on this page аnd all we know who they are. They are rude the whole society and no one takes anything for their ban from the site.

I dunno lol, think about it, I can't do anything about nor can franco or BB93 :) we run the site but we can't control people, best medicine is to completely ignore and blank them out! be a bigger man.

I can totally ban people :) but banning someone doesn't sort the issue out, there will always be hater, butthurt knobs who want something and go to lenghts of giving death threats or just trolling people.. :) it's best to ignore and not feed the troll ;)
