does DB-Tech take modification requests?

[fufu]

I have been searching through many sites and been taken by many developers.

Can your clients request custom scripts?

This is something we are open to, but i'm sure @Cosmic: will be able to tell you more on this.

basically the answer is only in exceptional circumstances.

All of our coders are kept very busy by their DBTech schedules, and it only becomes financially viable for them to deviate from that if the job is going to be *very* lucrative.

Basically what we do is work out how long a project will take, work out what mod that would stop being made, and work out the projected 6 months profit of that mod. We'd only take the job if it exceeded this number.

With that said, feel free to ask and let us know your budget, and we'll let you now if it's feasible =)

Okay here is my job I need done, if possible.

Job: Prune Visitor Messages, Prune Social Group Discussion threads

Details: Modification must be a product/plug-in that can automatically prune VM and Social Group discussions upto 'X' last replies. Both VM and Social Group pruning must be 'X' setable to the last most recent replies kept. Each can be turned on/off.

Example: Last most recent 20 replies are not deleted for each user, but anything older than the last 20 replies in a user's VM/Social Group will be deleted.

We could do something like that (since it's such a small job) It would be about a days work likely

Our rates aren't exactly low though (as shown by the explanation above) so we'd charge about $300 (roughly the value of a days work of one of our coders)

Although you get what you pay for, you might be better off with requesting here http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=30

Do some more research, I am sure you will find a good decent coder for a good price, while not having to take a DBTECH coder away from DBTECH for the day lol.

Hmmm... okay I will think about it...

But yes @hornstar, I will keep trying vB.org. I have not had any success with vB.org with the modification. A lot of scammers on that site.

Thanks for the pre-emptive heart-attack Cosmic for those small modifications.

=P As I said, and hornstar alluded to, we're definetely at the more expensive end of the scale.

The reason is we're not priced to be competitive with other people, but to be competitive with the other potential sources of income - most other coders don't have that though =P

I'll just throw this out there, but TruthElixerX on the vbulletin.org forums did a service request for me recently. It was quite cheap and the service was good. Send him a PM and say I suggested him to you
