alrighty so things that we do:
get hydro on msn
something below jr programmer
something below gfx team member
and we will disbecauses open reg as this is popular, our concern with this though was letting back in those who really did something bad to get banned

[.:Orange:.]

How about get hydro on MSN NOW.

I don't know... there just is nothing to talk about anymore. Everything is spam. But as for what I have learned here...

Swf Decompiling
Artmoney/Flash Hacking
Got me started on C++ (Me and Helf were C++ buddies back in the day xD)
Graphics (Photoshop)
Internet Etiquitte (Sp? )
Proxi'mitron
HTML

And much more that I am too lazy to think about.

And- I suggest the mod that I put in the suggestion section in staff

From what Ive heard the rep mod is really spammy?  You should make it so like only certain people can do it (like prov and up or whatever)

being in codex is a real honor and every single member who is apart of the community should at least for the sake of other members be active because if your here for the programs and the hacks the you should be asamed of yourself.  The main reason everyone should be here is to talk enjoy and have fun

Exactly, this is the only forum I'm actually active on.  Ive been to two other "neo related" ones and I posted like once, and stopped.  I love it here.

Hello everyone,

Lately I have been troubled with many thoughts. I don't feel the unity anymore.

There was once a ti'me in NeoCodex history where everyone contributed to I'mprove NeoCodex and its members as a whole. The contributions were beneficial to all of the members, and we felt a sense of pride and achievement because of our contributions.

In the last few months, however, we never felt that pride anymore. It is as if we have reached our maxi'mum potential. Even the administration has changed. We don't think like we used to, we don't decide the way we used to, and we have changed for the worst.

Honestly, how many of you (veteran members) feel the pride in NeoCodex that you used to back in April or May? Back then, we were united, motivated, and aspired. Not anymore. Where did that go? My quest for the last few months was to try and find the answer to that question.

The whole "aura" of this place, the morale.. everything has dropped to a really crappy level. Maybe some of you can help me figure this out....

yes I agree with that, when I was back at codex , I joined like litterally a week or 2 after it opened, I thought it was the coolest site in the wrld, I was like

0m6 Dis iS de_l337357 site ev3r, 1 wi11 st4y and b3 active, lol

now, I don't know, 80 or more % of members are inactive, I  only see a handful still posting, I think less programs are comming out, but that is understandable since I think we've  made almost everything needed,  but activeness isnt everything guys, its how you post, and what you do and HOW THE JOB IS DONE. I think we've gone through TO MANY changes on neocodex. its like the Theory "U fix it to much, and its broke"

thats my speech lol , lol I think that was a retarded speech, I don't know we'll see lol





EDIT:


also, this is the only NEOPETS site iv stayed on, BECAUSE, I wanted to see how codex goes through it all,  I thought it was interesting, I got inactive LESS, because I jus get flamed, ppl are like

WTF FATAL U NOOB, and I dont like that, so I go into a different genre of forums now were I'm respected, and how I remember codex

I personally have the same issues as others before me: codex is a crutch. I stay active here when I am a member at other sites, and frankly, this is the best. I think of it like this: <cheezy metaphor> codex is like the neopets cheating big brother. We have always been at the top (even though I wasn't here to wittness it) and we always will be. The other sites look up to their big brother,/cheezy metaphor>  Thats not the problem. The problem is the members. Like ali said, people come and people go, we just have to accept it. Except we don't have to accept it. We can delete inactive members, I mean, ask8er88 came back after we informed hi'm he would be deleted.

On the issue of the forum mods, I have no opinion. Other forums do it, but thats because they are other forums. We should consider whether or not to do these very carefully.

Anyway, just my abreviated thoughts on the subject.

[Fatal]

dude, I cant even express my thoughts or feelings on codex or they go

"oMg I MuSt bAn Joo!"

or they get mad at me, , wtf this shouldnt be,

[redlion]

huh? I think the newest change in the rules makes it possible to say whatever you want. Check them out. the last rule.

[Fatal]

pffffft they say that, it wont be enforced after a few monthes, I thought they said nothing outside of codex counts against u or sumthing, well I got banned for it,

[414de7fe6]

Unfortunatly, I'd agree with shadowlink at this stage of ti'me. When I joined codex, it was little more than 91 members, 30 being active. The community was great, there was very little neopets junkies (people who come here for the programs and to cheat, nothing else) and ti'mes were good.

Then codex died. It was resurrected, and lost the majority of that good community. It died again, and lost the remaining veteran members. Hydrogen, being the kind soul he is plotted another resurrection, which the likes of codex is still alive today. Most of the veteran members returned. And here we are today.

3 have left completely. 4 are missing.

But, with all things comes a change, a ti'me of change. Nothing stays the same forever, and neocodex is changing at the moment. It should be soon that everyone settles into this new aura and become used to it.

This, coming from me of all people..Start being nice to others >.> its that drives people
away.

[Gargar]

who left and whos missing?

Just curious, who was the owner of the original codex if it wasn't Hydro (I know rdd owns ncodex.com...althought I might have misread your post)?

[Fatal]

RDD and Hydro made codex = ) they were like an alliance

[Evan]

I think . . . codex needs a new look.  A complete makeover.

From my knowledge, it was rdd who started it off as a msn group. And it was rdd which led codex to its demise twice too.

Yeah, I think NeoCodex really needs some new skins or something... or a rewards system or more games in the arcade.. and we should hold events on a regular basis. It's healthy for people to participate in stuff like that.

Yah, at least some more skins.  Make it look prettiful

also, I think Codex should come up with some sort of proof system?

I get banned for sum1 going on my Ai'm and talking bad to members? we should need real IP's too prove it was me, or sumthing better,

[redlion]

Get all the people who know PHP and MYSQL and make our own forums. I tell you it be well worthit for we can becausetomize to our needs.

I don't get this.

also, I think Codex should come up with some sort of proof system?

I get what you are saying, but I don't see how it would be feasible.

[Fatal]

get IP by netstat or an Ai'm IP getting prog

[Funnlecake]

it'll be my one year in 3 days

codex was cool in the begining.  the programs were not what they are now.  I still would like some of the other origanal people were here.

I think somepeople should work on a rewards type system.  like get points for playing games, getting high scores, posting, getting into private or progger and ect, submiting tuts. then trade the points for stuff like speacal board items or convert them into rpg gold (that would mean putting in and rpg mod BUT NO PET RPGS THEY SUCK) .
