    PHP? Frameworks?

    Frameworks tend to have a little bit of a learning curve to start but for the most part provide waaaaay more additional functionality that is a huge help that makes up for the curve. I personally like Laravel as well, but I've use CodeIgnitor and Slim before as well. Frameworks usually help...

    Looking for a new server host, any recommendations?

    I'm also a huge fan of Digital Ocean. I run about 20 or so droplets with various projects and architecture. They have a lot of pretty good documentation and there is a basic LAMP setup that works for most default php applications. We use the servers in combination with forge.laravel.com to help...

    Feature Development, Scope & Destruction

    what is this? So I see a lot of projects fail or go miserably wrong because not enough attention was paid during the planning stages to really nail down a plan of action surrounding the features and functionality of the project. This is a guide to help remedy those problems, and can really be...

    Abortion and Rights under the Law

    I don't believe any medical services should be supported by governments or required to be supported by employers especially if those medical services are a result of lifestyle choices. Regardless of whether or not abortion is right or wrong the fact is that abortion does go against religious...

    Views on the current American President

    This is what has my concern even more than Trump at this point. Media outlets shamelessly releasing articles that directly contradict each other, so one of them is lying but both are pointing the finger at the other and screaming fake news. Nothing is about the facts anymore, and no one seems to...

    Evocality

    Not that I knew all the staff who were working for Evocality but if memory serves me correctly one of the frustrations was staff claiming they never got paid for the work they did so there were questions everywhere about what happened to the money that was raised.

    Consoles: Gamerscore / Achievements / Trophies

    I think it's because we're getting old. :P   I don't have as much time to spend playing video games as I did when I was in highschool or even college. So those achievements are less shiny because of the sheer amount of time it can take to platinum a game. And I happen to like the rubbish...

    Views on the current American President

    To be honest, as much as the media and left has pushed and called for impeachment, there really hasn't been evidence that he's done anything wrong/illegal. I don't like Trump but I want him to succeed because he's my president. There hasn't been any evidence linking Trump's campaign to Russia...

    "Offensive" words and themes you would avoid?

    The culture of being offended is really silly in my opinion. I'm a big believer in free speech and that means I don't have agree with what you say but I support your right to say it. So I might not like jerks but they have the right to be a jerk, and it's not your duty to change the behavior of...

    Unique Pet Names?

    Just because you use the ID's doesn't mean you need to display them. If you have for example a pet-search that is by name, you can display the ID alongside the name to show they are different pets, or display other information such as the owner, species or age to differentiate. You don't REPLACE...

    Unique Pet Names?

    Can you give an example? To be honest if you're in a situation where you can't use ID's in your database you're probably doing something wrong...

    Bolts Tax system

    @Boltgreywing Pushing this a little further, taxes in the real world are for a purpose, supporting the governmental bodies. In a game this usually isn't necessary which is why tax systems don't usually get implemented(that and people generally hate taxes). If your taxes aren't supporting any...

    Dead Ship Commissions [OPEN]

    Gorgeous work, although you can't request people just email you. It's in the guidelines for the board.

    Chat moving to Discord

    I don't think the addition of the discord chat will mean people will go there instead of here. I'm on here way more, and occasionally pop over into the chat to see what's happening.

    Unique Pet Names?

    In your database you should probably always store unique ID's anyway.

    Living in Asia? (Korea, Japan, etc)

    North Korea has always been threatening but the threat always seemed 'farther down the road' so to speak. Trump wants to look like a stronger world leader than his predecessor though so I'm not sure what's going to happen but I agree it does look scary.

    Have Cartoons Gone... Bad?

    I always saw Tom & Jerry as sort of a representation of my sister and I. She'd push my buttons, we'd fight and then get into all sorts of trouble, etc. Even looking back it reminds me of two siblings fighting lol.  There is a difference between personal preference and what I think is being...

    Living in Asia? (Korea, Japan, etc)

    Well that would be why no one does drugs!!  I've never been to Asia, but I just wanted to throw in something about the political landscape. There are a lot of rumors flying in recent months about North Korea and how I think they basically hold South Korea hostage. I'm not super familiar with...
