err wasnt that great a programmer, he was a .NET programmer to begin with (/Unix nerd joke haha). Also, half the bugs I found where err's fault.
i.e: being able to use a weapon you didnt have in attack, being able to get lots of credits, probably some others, which I wont mention for personal reasons
.the thing is, err was a programmer, so at least he had some clue of what he was doing, unlike cipher, who has already left some holes since he has been here.

Why not enlist help for coding with credit based rewards. If cipher is swamped some of us could help or grease the palms of programmers we know. For an incentive.

personally i feel if you do any coding u shouldnt be playing too. cipher obviously felt the same or snorkelbill wouldnt be inactive

So rather than helping we should stick with the stale material. Even if it cost 100 dollars out of my own pocket for a benefit for everyone? You wouldn't want compensation or a tag.

being that most of us would be unable to take part and reap benefits it would be an unfair advantage. the game is already set up so people who can afford to donate are better than those who cannot. why unbalance it further? feel free to code if they want you to. i just think players shouldnt also be coders, one or the other

The benefits would be faster updates. Its a non issue though. I don't see cipher asking for help and there is no compensation for the hassle it would cause.

yea true. but what i was tryin to say but it didnt come out right is, it should be something any of us could do to help, if its givin out credits
