Only 5 official script developers at a time?

So only those people can release paid scripts?

Not that cool....

 

This will make it so people will try hard to get that rank, thus releasing high quality free scripts on the SDN. You will only need to pay money for the BEST scripts.

I honestly just thinking this is getting to the point of jealousy where you're saying if this guy's releasing this script for $8.00 on the SDN and it's the easiest thing to code, and my super script factory can do the same thing, why can he just get free $8 from all these people and they aren't buying my scripts, grr grr grr.. lol.

 

Or some edgeville yew cutter for like $2, and you're like, well i could release that on my super script factory, or i could make one, or i could this, why can they get payed for that, I honestly just think it's about jealousy.. but anyway.. carry on.

What's wrong with this?

If it's not a top notch script, it should be free for the benefit of the community.

5 of the scripters will more than likely win each time.

If someone released a free yew cutter on the sdn prices will drop dramatically.

If your suggesting it free the make it so its free to all VIP or sponsor. Less of the ban rate on the script if less people use it, also less of a decrease in the price of the item

Sorry but no, soz just no

Hello everybody!

Recently there have been some changes to how ranks work around here, and some discussion with what belongs on the SDN, so here are my recommendations of how it all should work:

 

Official Script Writer:

- There will be an official monthly poll in the contest section where 5 official script writers can be voted in.

- Only 5 users can have the rank at any given time. If you're not voted in again, you lose your rank.

- To apply to the contest, you will be judged by your name and your best script. For example, I could be judged for SuperScript Factory, or @XavierM could be judged for ATMercher.

- You need to be an official script writer to submit a paid script. If you lose your rank, your paid scripts will remain on the SDN, but you won't be able to submit any more.

 

SDN Scripts:

- To submit a script to the SDN, you must submit a programming resume as if it were a job. You need to show that you are an experienced programmer, and not just a beginner.

- The script must not only do one small task, it must do a large task, or various small tasks. This means that you can not submit an Edgeville yew chopper, but you will be able to submit an AIO Woodcutter.

- The script must be shown to run for over 72 hours straight. The SDN is for the best, and only the best.

- All SDN scripts must have a video demonstrating how the script works, along with a minimum of 5 screenshots.

- You must prove that there is a demand for the script if it's not already obvious. If there is already an AIO woodcutter that functions correctly, there is no need for your script. Please take a few minutes to innovate, OSBot really needs this.

 

Paid SDN Scripts:

- These scripts must follow all of the rules stated in the SDN Scripts section.

- As stated in the Official Script Writer section, you must be an Official Script Writer to submit any paid scripts.

- Paid scripts must be truly exceptional, please do not submit an AIO Tanner for $7.99/month.

- Paid scripts must have some sort of intelligent anti ban system.

- All paid scripts will get their own section, along with a support subsection, similar to SuperScript Factory's section. This will reduce frustration among paying script users.

 

Local Scripts:

- Local scripts are an important part of our community, so please don't spam our sections.

- All local scripts should be screened by moderators before the topic is posted. This will stop useless scripts from being posted.

- All local script writers must prove that their script has ran for a minimum of 24 hours straight.

- All local scripts must have a video demonstrating how their script works, along with a minimum of 3 screenshots.

- Official Script Writers should have the ability to remove broken scripts from the local scripts section as if they were moderators. Too often users are confused when their under updated scripts stop working.

 

Please share your opinion on what you think of my recommendations, I truly hope for an increase of quality scripts on OSBot.

Official Script Writer

I do not support this because it would not make sense to limit it to only 5 users. Also, some users who do not contribute through scripts, members like@Brainfree, deserve official script writer rank. This will only cause those 5 to monopolize scripts which is highly unfair to the rest of the community. Also, people vote based on what they use over what is good.

 

SDN Scripts

This is not a job, so it would make no sense for people to submit a programming resume. I do like the idea that it can't be simple and the example you gave, but I think 24 hour is fine because 72 hours is way too long and many things can go wrong like Jagex update or client issues (randoms, etc). I don't think videos are needed as long as instruction come with it. Scripters are not here to baby sit all their users. People should be allowed to upload a script even if it is already up in SDN; monopoly is not good. This is not a first come, first serve community.

 

Paid SDN Scripts

That rule about only official scripters can sell scripts was a rule created by Kati and since her demotion, it has been an empty rule. Any script should be allowed to be sold as long as it works imo. It wouldn't be fair to limit what others would pay for. No script should have its own section imo.

 

Local Scripts

That would be way too much work for the moderators especially ones that are inexperienced with code reviews, which is why the SDN was implemented (at least partially). That is too much of a restriction on local scripts. The way I see it is that local scripts are a place to learn, without them, I would of never written any of my scripts. I don't mind if official scripts help with the clean up, not sure many would want to do that.

 

This is what I personally think, feel free to disagree.

No one else has a chance.

 

I highly doubt I would be one of them. I know of 5 way better scripters than myself.

On this site? That has released multiple good scripts?

It's not anyone's but the script writer's decision whether they want their script free or paid.

So your saying that it's your right to sell whatever you'd like at whatever price at WalMart?

Why are you comparing two entirely different situations?

 

1. How's it my right to sell whatever I like at whatever price at Walmart? Excuse me? I'm selling my scripts on OSBot, not fucking walmart.

2. Walmart prices are decided by a group of people who think what's best for the company. e.g. a script that greatly affects the RS economy which is accessible by everyone will lead to the downfall of the economy, that is why you limit the script's accessibly (making it paid) therefore stabilizing the economy (or decreasing its pace).

3. I'm Australian, pick something else other than walmart ffs.

Dash.. if you want more cash just make BETTER scripts than the ones that are purchasable already.. IE.. make a BETTER payed AIO woodcutter or something. lol

OSBot makes their money from scripts, and by this their would be hardly any scripts in the SDN.

 

 

This is a sad ploy to get more people to buy SSF. By removing more of the simpler, CHEAPER, SDN paid scripts the only option left is to buy your script.

Honestly, what is the last script you've seen nxjr put out?

Seems he hasn't released a script in over 2 months, so how will he make it?
