All Of 'Em Announces the Launch of WebmasterConventions.com

[Hell Puppy]

I didn't even know that All of 'Em was still around.

How come it doesn't track Oprano? Last messages it loaded from here are from 2006.

You really gotta get out more, HP.

Nothing personal. Long story short. Good programmers are a bitch to find. And if you find a good one he tends to get tied up with long-term large-scale projects.

In short, Oprano upgraded to a version of VB that had a lot more features and differences than the previous one -- and also made enough template changes to the default too -- that our spiders didn't recognize it anymore. The programmer has finally finished his long-term project for us and after he does a short-term one for someone else is scheduled to rectify this problem.

And yeah, sure we could have gone instead and found another programmer (or more likely series of programmers) to learn the script from scratch and then make adjustments, but I've found in the long run it's best to wait for the main guy who worked extensively on it before and knows it back and forth to come back rather than go through a bunch of unknowns who are clueless and deal with their excessively long learning-curves. You end up with the same amount of time spent, a lot more money and never what you wanted; best to wait, even if it's a substantially longer time than desired.

Trust me, as soon as Scanner is able to pick up Oprano again I will be able to give out a long sigh of relief.

yadda yadda yadda yadda.......

lolol...Long story short my ass. lololol.

Here's the long story short version.

It's broke. I'm working on it. Should be about


Two Weeks



Seriously though. I am on it. Trying to catch up with 2+ years of changes in board structures and tags to get everything working again.

I have been working local so the updates I have been getting in are not going into the main database right now.

Hopefully have stuff going into the main database in a few days.

Harry, that takes care of us needing to get together by phone too.

The convention page came out looking pretty good. Must be the script

Yes, you did bang up on the convention script, Sarettah. Mind you, that was just a little nugget for you, you could have done that one in your sleep, but it's sweet.

I know you're working on the Scanner script, and it will be taking so many boards in the near future I might need to get another server and hard drive in just to keep up with all that it will be scanning!
