I am looking for a programmer to clone name generator script: rinkworks. com/namegen/ (Simple Interface part) but with a web2 usability. Overview of what the application will do: - generate unique (user)names that are readable and make sense. - generate names based on categories as seen on Rinkworks (serious names,fun names, specialized names) and subcategories as listed on the site. - all previous generated names are saved in list (database) and browsable (alphabetically) by site visitors, as example 30 names per a page. - search engine optimized. Overview of what the application will NOT do: - generate random names that make no sense like: dhasdfas, ugsdm, dowmgzz, trgd... Overview of how the application will work: - when someone visits web site he must choose category and press generate button, after 5 seconds unique name is generated, while "generating" name ad box is displaying. Tips and opinions: - please read rinkworks. com/namegen/instr.shtml and rinkworks. com/namegen/history.shtml to get better understanding. - I believe this application can be based on some algorithm. - layout can be similar to this: generate-password.com - test live script before you send me a message. Budget: $350
I am really disappointed with the work done by Tom-Brown, he somehow complete script to crash my server each time I run it. He never bothered to take a look at the server, neither explained why is this happening. Only thing he did is take 10 days to come up with an excuse; I have consulted my friend, as due to me completing the work etc, then your server disallowing it to function. I believe I have done what asked. So I do not believe a refund it correct. I will be out for the following couple of days. I will back in 4 days aprox. No, he wasn't more exact than this. It's dedicated server where I run x100 sites bigger than this used-to-be-this-simple-script. Conclusion: $350 lost, with no working script, neither refund.
Hey! I've been working on a largish project for Big0ne for a while now and he is an extremly decent guy so hearing that he didn't get the best quality script is never a good thing. He asked me to take at the script created by Tom to see if I could do anything to make it work a little better. Needless to say it was a badly coded script, with no commenting nor class based programming. This was a poorly done job From Tom-Brown. If he has any pride in his work then he shall relise this and refund. rushed one would say. Which is being Big0ne states above it took 10 days. $350 was well paying for the size of this job, and It's a damming sign of the way Digitalpoint is going if it's so hit an dmiss. I'm not just saying it would an easy enough job out of the middle of no-where either. I've coded a site for Big0ne that does the features he required.
I'd like to point out, that I already stated to Big0ne I'd repair for free within 2 months. So guess, I'm fixing it right now. So please do not judge me from these posts above. Just thought I'd clear this up. Also about the 10 day thing, he said he was in no-rush. So I did not rush it.
Tom, Trust me I understand the perils of programming, but I personally feel fixing a project is when it breaks after, say because a client mucks something up. Surely if it's not working first time round then it's not fixing but still creating. Big0ne has told me to not rush, but obviously there is a difference between rushing and dilly-dallying! From what I can tell the script you coded was stuck in a loop (Generating thousands per a minute, eating up all CPU resources). I think personally it might be best to offer a refund or indeed a partial refund. But I'll back out of this now, it's for you and Big to talk about!
