Going to delay todays Daily Report for possibly tomorrow or monday. Im just not getting enough feedback to continue post. I love how people only comment when there is conflict and drama on the thread and they rarely ever contribute valued feedback. So until I see more feedback on what we are sharing then I wont post it.
It takes way to long to gather information up and post it in for me for you all to keep you in the loop to get no feedback from it.
I have the next 6 reports written up already but until I see some feedback appearing on the other reports Im not going to continue posting them if no-one is giving their opinions on them.
The reports serve a purpose, and that purpose is to get information to you to let you know what we are working on and get feedback in return to see what we can improve or change or if everything is hunky dory fine. But if im not going to get any kind of input from the community then Im going to just stop letting you know what we are doing.
I know you are viewing them. But your just not giving feedback which in my opinion is kind of wrong.
You read the reports, but dont leave any helpful feedback or your feelings about what was covered in them.
Its up to you all if you keep wanting to see information coming out of us or if you want to be left in the dark.
I dont do the Daily Reports for me while I (sometimes) enjoy doing some of them, I only do them for you. And really Im not getting any kind of feedback, positive or negative in return.
i love that you are putting videos on of what you are working on i will start writing more feedback also on the darlek construction video are you working on making that all of the darleks have something to do because some of them wasnt doing anything

The videos are not the reports. You get absolutely very little information on the videos and the information is in the post about it. The videos are just an extention of the report.
Your question right there was mentioned in the report itself and not in the video.
To actually get the information regarding the things you NEED to goto www.DailyReport.iKingsSGC.com. The videos link to it all the time but people ignore the link and dont get the info

People need to create an account at www.DailyReport.iKingsSGC.com in order just to view the reports, and I would imagine that most casual players (not me, but plenty of people) who are interested in this mod would not be willing to create an account just to see something which they can't download yet.
Personally, I think it would inform the public best if short reports were very occasionally posted on this forum thread with videos of some features you've added that you think you can really show off to skeptics and not just offer sneak peeks on. I think people love to see videos since they show them that something is actually being made in Minecraft and what it looks like in the game and what they can expect from this awesome mod when it comes out. I know the part I most want to see in the Daily Reports is the video. In general, my rule when updating people is to assume that people are generally stupid and go from there. I haven't been following this mod for that long, and there are 130+ pages of replies to this thread, so if something like this hasn't worked in the past, I'm sorry for suggesting it. Just weighing in with my opinion, hopefully it's somehow helpful.
Personally, I completely agree with what ALeone said, it'd be better to have larger, more interesting reports, than daily explanations of what's going to be in the mod.
EDIT: And the fact that accounts must be created is probably very off-putting for most users, it makes it look like you're just promoting your site.

i agree as well. as for it being posted on the forums, i also agree. your problem was that it takes too long and codes on the forums isn't compatible anymore, right? something like that? as for it taking too long, that's just something to live with. if you're going to spend any time on your computer, post it first and go to a new tab. as for code not being compatible, i need a better explanation. i know you said something about that. bbcode seems to work for me on both sites, minecraft forums and your forums.

No, I'm not some n00b that makes there username have to do with the game they're playing. There were no Endermen in Alpha. N00bs.
The Daily Reports are really the only kind of information you will be getting, as for the "code" errors and other things is that posting on all 3 sites i have to re-write all the tags in 3 different formats, HTML, BBCODE and Parsehtml. And its really not worth it. Not to mention the fact that its killer on the sites bandwidth to post them on all 3 sites. The iKingsSGC only solution helps me and cuts an hour or more of prep-time.
As for not registering, thats not the case. They are registering however they view the reports read them and dont post their opinions on them. That is the issue, not the registration. Its also not self promoting, I have had to enable user registration for that stuff because of several attacks on my servers/website by rival servers who come up with creative new ways to hack the site without these protections.
As for your "short reports with videos"....you do realize that about less than 10% of the stuff that will actually be in the mod is actually in game. And of that 10% the 1.2.3 update left about half of that functional and has to be redone. And half of that half needs to be redone anyways because of functionality and ease of use issues.
The Daily Reports are the best way to get new information out, there will be minimal videos out there due to the lack of new things being put in game and more things being remade, fixed and perfected. The daily reports arent video posts, they are informative things that people need to know and read. We NEED to get feedback on the things In the reports before we finalize the features
I love how 2 of the 3 people who commented on this issue are the ones who are considered by the entire team to be some of the biggest trouble makers on this thread and dont contribute much other than drama.
Point in all of this being is that no matter how you suggest I change the way information is delivered it will not as optimal or as preferable as getting the daily reports. If your only desire to view videos and not get anything informative then you will be waiting months in between any kind of news updates.
What it all comes down to is laziness from the people who dont want to read what is going on and watch these videos or skip through sections and then ask "Oh is that going to happen" or "Whats up with that bug" balh blah.
When you look at it, any kind of news update we have ever given has never gotten valuable feedback from anyone on this thread. I love the planetminecraft and iKingsSGC forum threads so much because over there people actually contribute ideas, comment on the things they like.
Over here on the minecraft forum thread....you people just throw a bunch of random drama and stupid crap up here and dont actually contribute any kind of feed back whether it be from the main post or anything.
Why do you think I didnt post that message on the planet minecraft thread or the iKingsSGC forums. Because THEY actually contribute as a community. Over here on the minecraft forums thread your always just bickering about stupid ass stuff that doesn't really matter.
Granted since the minecraft forum update the activity of the entire MCF site has dropped significantly. I even have horrendous issues while using the site including database error messages whenever I post. The site times out alot and It logs me out after 5 minutes of inactivity. That is another reason why im not posting the full daily reports here anymore. its just too many issues and not worth the time to put them here.
EDIT: I would also like to add that the iKingsSGC Forums will play a vital role in the download and istallation of the mod and the user authentication system so they would need to register anyways. It will also be key to the plans of our MMO SMP version of the game. Yofreke and I are trying to build the community there as part of the Mod Division. Me and yofreke have planned this very carefully and have plans for the community we are building on the iKingsSGC Forums.

Hey, I'm not sure, but was the hath idea shut down or is it still an undecided thing
If u were to add it to the mod, they could develop colonies on the different planets with similar mechanics to the villagers in vanilla minecraft, however when attacked by a hostile entity, depleting the colony size, the cloner would produce more of them.
You could also give them loose classes like warriors to protect the rest and farmers as well as builders.
If you've already shut this idea down, please don't flame me
Thank you, i totally forgot about this one lol
We are on a seesaw of indecisiveness about the Hath actually. Weather we were going to make the Un-evolved hath, or the humanoid hath. In the end we decided to wait till the Silurians City Smart Entity System was completed before makign a decision
OOOOHHH MMYYYY GOOOODDD THIISS LOOOKS SOOOO EPPPICCCC I CAN'T WAAIIITTTT please make it easy to install thought (not like one of those really complicated ones)
OOOOHHH MMYYYY GOOOODDD THIISS LOOOKS SOOOO EPPPICCCC I CAN'T WAAIIITTTT please make it easy to install thought (not like one of those really complicated ones)

Well the feedback I am looking for is on the specific Daily Reports and the content in them. Not on daily reports as a whole.
