Feed the Dolphin Please

jtadeo posted 5th of April 2010 in Community Voice. 7 comments.

When I was in the first grade we had a little experiement experiment where we had to grow a plant in a container using cotton as the soil along with a scheduled watering routine. You can imagine my delight when my plant started to grow and started sprouting some leaves and managed to quietly grow out of it's container begging more sunlight from where ever it might find it. My delight turned to sorrow as when I found out that my plant had died.How and why did the plant die? I forgot to water it.

Fast forward to the days at the BoonEx Unity forums. Lessons learned in my first grade apply today. For this community to grow we must sustain it with good clean water. In other words, good clean advice and assistance. That can come in the way of free code, mods, links, positive comments, useful criticism and respectful replies to differing viewpoints. That is the right way and best way to grow a community and the Dolphin script. It's also the best way to protect any investment you've made with Dolphin.

I would like to call on all developers, designers, modders, programmers to chime in to assist the new ones who are struggling with their first swim with Dolphin. It might take a few minutes out of your day, but I can guarantee you it will be appreciated by someone. I'm resolved to post more and get more involved regardless of my crazy schedules because I think it will ultimately help the community, the people in it and as a by product, I know it will help me personally. I've seen this equation work many times.

For those getting some help, please do post back and say thank you. Those two words inspire the nerds and geeks in us to give back more and do more to the community. Positive feedback is great food. Everyone likes to be appreciated.

[post edit : Just to be clear, there are many who do help and those are all appreciated. I just think, at this time, more can be better. ]

Good post James,

I find very few questions asked. The ones I do see are very difficult and I only provide hints as to where things should be changed. I believe all the new dev's on here deserve a chance because there are people who need help flooding the place daily. If I can help anyone solve an issue at anytime, you guys all know I will and have answered it.

Please do not hesitate to contact me, if you find you have bitten off more than you can chew then don't make the client wait while see more you figure it out. Contact one of the other guys and more than likely we have already done it once or twice before. Buy me a coffee for the info and woot you have another howto doc

Believe you me...I get back here to read my own answers and watch my own tutorials lol....have fun
