PLUGIN WEEKENDS

[psychobunny]

p.s. non-core developers get the whole week, our work only counts if released on the weekend. (hardmode)

For this weekend, Jan 17-20th

in first place imo comes @mr_waffle
Shoutbox Plugin

a very very tight second place comes @barveyhirdman with his two plugins:
Local Mailer Plugin, Spotify Embed Plugin

tied for third place comes @dove and @seti123
Twitter Embed Plugin, Elastic Search Plugin

@baris and myself hanging in there in last place:
Link Checker Plugin, Lightbox Gallery Plugin

step up @julian, you're losing 21 hours to go!

The guy who writes the best security-related plugin gets interviewed on my site, with his mug shot plastered for all to see. Is that a good-enough incentive to work on one of those? I'm thinking of anything that brings WAF features to the platform.

[psychobunny]

I thought I could get that offer simply out of my good looks regardless of my plugin writing abilities

[finid]

@psychobunny

Ok, the offer stands, but if you write the security plugin that wins the Blue ribbon, you and your girlfriend gets interviewed. Sorry, no free trip to some tropical paradise.

[psychobunny]

Haha, first I'd need to find a @girlfriend (DOH, didn't work) but that would mean I'd have to give up NodeBB time.... naaah.

[BarveyHirdman]

I'd like to thank the academy.

[psychobunny]

Not thanking mom and dad?

[BarveyHirdman]

@psychobunny oh yeah for Mom.

[Schamper]

Thanks guys

[Scuzz]

wooo Go Waffle

[WhateverYouWant]

I love this community, you guys make me laugh every time I see your posts. Especially @barveyhirdman & @psychobunny

[julian]

Wait, so it's the NodeBB team vs the community? Except we have to work only on weekends? GAME ON.

[Schamper]

So a new week has started...

Hey NodeBB community?

Everything is done from a plugin.

[psychobunny]

wow... you sir have won this week next week and the week after

[finid]

@psychobunny

I think unless somebody writes an awesome security plugin, @Mr_Waffle will be a winner from now til Thy Kingdom Come!

That is very cool!

[julian]

Oh right, we never clarified whether a new week began on Sunday or Monday

[bentael]

@Mr_Waffle respect.

EDIT but creepy lol.

[baris]

Who needs chat roulette when you have @Mr_Waffle + NodeBB

[bentael]

@planner said:

awesome security plugin

what do u have in mind? im bored.

[finid]

@bentael

A complete Web application firewall that offers login protection (brute force login attack protection), IP blocking, automated or manual site scan for intrusions, anti-spam, any feature we can think that will boost the security profile of the platform.

Maybe add the ability to put the site in maintenance mode, if it does not already have it.

Lock down of core files to prevent unauthorized modifications, etc

And I think we need some type of anti-spam for the registration page.
