Nek minnit, makes auto clicker for 72 hours, bitch please, my script can so run for 72 hours straight! proven.

 

lolololololololol, no.

 

But yeah.. clearly this is about dashboard and is $$ issues... he just cba making OTHER good quality scripts to make $$.. >.> 

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.

 

I agree that the quality of SDN scripts need to be enforced.

I believe having only 5 officials scriptwriters would be a bad idea as it just creates a gap.

The beauty of the Osbot community is that ANYONE can pick up scripting and create scripts and work themselves into a prime scriptwriter eventually. Adding a limit to who can become an SDN Scriptwriter can have negative effects and turns the community into one big popularity contest which I feel is bad as a whole.

 

To better understand my points we need to look to the science of PSYCHOLOGY:

 

It is widely know that convenience polls usually contain some sort of bias between choices. Which makes it a bad idea when deciding on sensitive issues

 

Let us assume that Dashboards suggestion was put into effect (Maximum limit of 5 Official scriptwriters, decided by vote) using the example below:

 

One day a new scriptwriter painstakingly plans, develops and tests a script all while having great feedback on a popular thread. So because of this success he decides that entering himself for a chance to become an official scriptwriter is a good idea. When the votes roll in he notices that he did not win, but also had a feeling that because he is not well known, he will never become official scriptwriter and leaves the community for good.

 

The example above demonstrates how using a poll as a deciding factor can discourage growth.

 

 

My suggestions for title requirements would be:

 

Scriptwriter:

- Must have  2-3 scripts in local section with good feedback

- Scripts mentioned above must be proven to work

- Must not have any previous record of Scamming

- Must provide Virus Data for ANY AND ALL updates

 

Official Scriptwriter:

- Maintains outstanding quality

- Maintains out standing support

- Must have been a scriptwriter for at least a set period of time

 

 

 

My suggestions for script requirements would be:

 

Local Scripts:

-Free of requirements

 

Free SDN:

-Must have good history,approval vouch,ETC.

 

Paid SDN:

Must be the best of the best or unique in its field/skill. The script must have features that set itself apart for other scripts beyond reasonable doubt. It makes ZERO sense that some scripts on the SDN do not even function correctly (Tutorial Island). Or scripts that some scripts have Local counterparts thus making it pointless to add a script of the same type to SDN and yet the creators have the nerve to add a subscription charge to it.

 

Before i get flamed please answers this questions for me?

 

Why would i ever pay a ridiculous amount $7.99 + AN ADDITIONAL $7.99 A MONTH FOR --> http://osbot.org/forum/store/product/89-celestialtanner/ <--(A simple tanner with no stand out features that justify a monthly fee).  Free tanners exist with the same features (http://osbot.org/forum/store/product/130-dncollections/) and the Paid SDN section is CLUTTERED with scripts that do not belong in that section.

 

If a scriptwriter wants to add a script to the SDN it should be Allowed only if certain prerequisites are met:

• Must set itself apart from other scripts that do the same job as it
• The requester must not have been punished WITH PROOF for Scamming or foul play previously
• If the scriptwriter has never had a script on the SDN they must provide some type of proof that the scripts they make are of OUTSTANDING quality. (A previous local script, A thread showing with popular vote decision, Scripting resume,ETC)
• Must agree that script contains no malicious coding

If a scriptwriter want to add monthly fees it should be allowed ONLY if certain prerequisites are met:

• Must set itself apart from other script that do the same job as it
• Quality Must go ABOVE AND BEYOND the average script on the site
• Features Must go ABOVE AND BEYOND the average scripts on the site
• Script support or updates must go ABOVE AND BEYOND the average script on the site
• The requester must not have been punished WITH PROOF for Scamming or foul play previously
• Must agree that script contains no malicious coding

Note: I did not check grammar or spelling completely

This sounds much more reasonable.

 

I agree with most of your points except your reference of my tanning script. Don't forget, some scripts are paid for the good of the RS economy not just because of exceptional coding. In the end, it is the product which is being sold.

 

Edit: Who are you to judge whether a script is truly exceptional?

 

Why does OSBot care about the RuneScape economy?

Anyway, if I can make your script with SuperScript Factory in under 2 minutes, your script isn't exceptional.

 

 

I hope you know that SSF is a script that is very easy to make...

Indeed. All the SSF does is take simple lines of code, like walk to here, or eat food at x hp, and then just adding it in a loop. The SSF is a very good idea, but it really isn't that special.

Thank you @Zappa for being smart. Lol

No, OSBot will lose more than they gain. Member and scripts wise, we'll be left with like 10 scripts on the whole site. -.-

Hmmm...

 

Is this actually to promote good scripts on the site, or is this another one of your "I developed SSF pls make me god and give me money" trips that you seem to have on the daily?
