BRING BACK RECHAN

anoncoreutils need to becompleted

>>78
Futaba is written in PHP, and very very badly written at that. Wakaba is written in very clean Perl that's actually readable - not a whole lot of $!*()$&$~LINE NOISE~)#$^icskmbqphx at all in it.

Trevorchan is written in PHP with more redundant classes and nested functions and shit than you could ever imagine.

>>81
I've not used either Futaba or Wakaba, and I'm fairly drunk, so I'm mostly just speaking out of my ass. In the end I think the "lol let's just rewrite the whole thing and make it 100x better" is a common sentiment that gets nothing done, simply because it lacks purpose.

If the goal is to add features, then add features.

If the goal is to improve the foundation of the codebase, then I think a complete rewrite (or, better yet, refactoring) is a perfectly viable solution.

REchan (the script) is basically a simplification of Futaba, and uses much the same concepts (flat file database) but without the images. I don't like Web 2.0, I actually prefer pages to be composed almost entirely of real content and in plain HTML.

I just finished r4 and REchan is now running it:

Fat nigger dicks, coming your way.

This is fucking dumb to force JavaScript/AJAX bullshit in situations where a small subset of people actually want it.
How about if you don't want it, don't click the fucking buttons, dipstick?

Or are you trying to sell me that transferring a maybe 10k large JavaScript textfile that can be compressed and subsequently cached from the server to the client is somehow a performance impact?

>>81
Wakaba is written in very clean Perl that's actually readable
I LOL'd. It's nowhere near as bad as Trevorchan, but it's still pretty bad.

>>89
You must have some brain disease if you have troubles reading wakaba. I started learning perl by reading/modifying wakaba source, and it was very pleasant experience.

>>78
How is trying to improve the imageboard user experience some sort of WEB 2.0 ENTERPRISE QUALITY bullshit?
Not that I would accept an answer from someone who is so out of touch with reality that he thinks sites should drop Javascript enhancements and distribute greasemonkey scripts instead.
Also, l2graceful degradation instead of assuming that everyone is just as incompetent as you.

How about if you don't want it, don't click the fucking buttons, dipstick?
having FUCKING 9000 BUTTONS next to EVERY SINGLE FUCKING POST is REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING.

>>92
Why the fuck are you assuming that the UI must necessarily be done even worse than it already is?

And you must be a fucking retard if you think 90% of all code being randomly arranged in 2 modules called "wakaba" and "blahsomething" is well organized.

>>95
It's less than 4000 lines of code, much of that being empty space, lines with nothing but } on them, or comments. Why would you arbitrarily split it into more files? Okay, maybe a separate file for the post manager, but aside from that there's really no need at all to make it any more complex.

Also, it's not random. All of the features common to both Wakaba and Kareha are in wakautils.pl; everything that's specific to Wakaba is in wakaba.pl.

Try working on a couple of projects before you start talking crap.

You're a nub. Stick with your cute little imageboard projects, obviously anything larger would explode violently in your hands.

>>98
I have about a million lines of code in my projects directory. Stick with your porn, so that your cock explodes violently in your hands.

By the way, I've done very little with imageboards aside from reading through the source to Futaba, Wakaba, Kareha, and (sickeningly) Trevorchan, and fiddling with Wakaba for a couple of hours.

>>99
It only gets worse. First he calls working on Crapaba a pleasant experience, then he claims knowledge equals lines of code.

Bumping this because you're apparently embarrassed by it.

>>101
I never said either. Stop putting words in my mouth.

Also, merely the theoretical and abstract won't get you anywhere in the real world. Go try applying for a job some time.

>>100
Stop defending yourself please, not like anybody gives two shits about you anyway. Stick to the topic at hand or get the fuck out.

Anyway, Wakaba is an unstructured piece of crap and it's painfully obvious that its author never anticipated that somebody might want to extent it in any way. No wonder people choose to write their own software instead of digging around in that thing. Not like there's a lot of salvageable stuff in there anyway, since it's just the nth clone of a shitty old Japanese board software coded some time around the bronze age.

>>99
I have about a million lines of code
Oh, you're one of those aren't you? High number of lines of code != code quality.

>>102

Sorry, I'll just take your posts as the empty shells of worthless babble they are then. No more interpretation of your rambling.

>>103
The "topic at hand"? You mean BRING BACK RECHAN?

This thread is painfully stupid and gets stupider with every post. Including this one, because I'm going to end it with DICK BUTT

>>106
No, the topic has changed. I just wanted to prevent you from changing it another time, because I don't care much about you personally.

>>107
Who?

>>108
The Doctor?

>>109
No, the Anticudder.

>>90
Heh, me too. I'd never looked at Perl before reading Wakaba and I've made quite a few mods to it quite easily.

Wehey, I made a thread list: http://jbotcan.org/

>>111
Anyone with half a brain can EASILY extend Wakaba. Fuck, if the potheads at that pothead chan whose number I forgot did it, so can everyone else.

>>113
Anyone with a complete one will ELECT not to and code something better.

we dont care. gtfo

>>115
Forced memes are cancer.

i like the background bricks dont get rid of it plz
