Pyth 127 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I feel there is a issue with the state of the SDN and unsupported broken scripts not being updated or removed. I propose we remove scripts that are made by Scripters who haven't logged in for longer than 3 months, I also propose we remove their Scripter rank and they can apply for it if they ever become active again, although I'll leave that to the community if they agree with me on this and then possibly discuss further. With the latest update to the Make All interfaces there are a lot of unsupported scripts still on the SDN, by removing scripts that are no longer being supported, it'll help new users not feel disappointed when they buy a broken script and have to refund it. It'll also reduced clutter and help promote active Scripters as they usually get placed at the bottom of the SDN If you're getting paid you should at least log in once every 3 months. /Discuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hashtag 8670 Share Posted November 21, 2017 In my opinion, no. Not only if there's a need for it. Not logging in for three months should not be a reason to remove a script/scripter rank. If the script is functioning without problems and doesn't need updates, then of course the scripter can be inactive. However, if the script is broken and requires an update from the author, then yes. That's why we have a section where users can report broken scripts. Broken scripts should be removed indeed, but not working scripts whose author has been inactive.

The main point I'm trying to get across is that they aren't putting in the time to check whether it works or not, No Scripter has 100% guarantee that their script is gonna work in 1 months time, let alone 3 months time. I feel as though there should be some sort of time requirement when you are given the rank and once every 3 months is still the bare minimum. Appreciate the input nonetheless.

ExpansionPack 17 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Yes, most definitely. I have not been active for months, still my script is on the SDN with thousands of users. As for the rank removing itself, this should not be done as one has proved he/she is capable of being a Scripter. No need to show that again when turning active again.
