    I can't wait to see what you have planned for that @psychobunny

    yeah me too 😛 personal goal of mine is to get a NodeBB port of that off the ground. I was just looking around the net for a phpbb forum that still uses RPG system. Gaia Online got off phpbb and ran their own thing eventually so they don't count anymore. One of my old friends catghost is still amazingly running her community today, and this is easily 10 years old...

    http://midorea.com/viewtopic.php?t=10439

    Unfortunately she has her forum locked down so you'd have to register to actually play around. I have to admit that her forum home page was an inspiration for our multi column homepage layout. Was a totally new concept back then... everybody other forum software has by default a single column layout for their home page.

    As for the plugin... In a nutshell you earn money from posting in forums and/or battling monsters or other forum users, and then you buy equipment and dress up your avatar. Equip these items and defeat others in battle, join guilds, explore zones (everything including maps configurable in the ACP). Gain raw materials from activities like fishing, mining, and then craft items with skills like blacksmithing and enchanting. For the casual user they're usually happy enough gaining gold and xp from posting but the real gamification comes from users battling each other.

    All in all an amazing plugin in its day and I can't wait to see a modern NodeBB version of this. In fact, if anybody has any PHP experience and is interested in helping me port over the code, I'd love to talk to you 😛

    I'm using the Git implementation in PhpStorm, one of the best IDE Git integrations I've seen. Visual Studio can learn a thing or 2000 from that.

    if you have a big signature like yours though, the post will have some awkward amount of padding below... so I guess that would work only if you restricted it to one or two lines maybe.

    edit: also, you signature hog!

    Hey @kamov, the value is shown here: /api/register, and can be altered in /routes/api.js, I'd imagine.

    It's deceiving. I think it will be changed later. There should be a favorite button, a share button, and a vote up/down button in that left-side corner.

    Agreed, this would increase the usability.

    http://blog.purecss.io/ this would be a pretty intereresting topic layout. I'm a minimalist at heart (although I think I went a bit overboard with the vanilla topic.tpl), so I do like this a lot.

    "database": "redis",
    "redis": {

    Even if you did name it, you wouldn't, sadly, be infringing on any copyright as this isn't a video game and/or article of clothing. BUT HOW DID THEY? WHY? CAPS LOCK CONFUSED MODE INITIATED!
