Haha, thanks for this Randall! I believe the entire team would be relieved when they see your post here. Now, let's drill down to the hardest part of beta testing, bug squashing! As soon as 1.3 is stable, the entire team will then focus on EasySocial 1.4 which will be one of the greatest ever extension ever created

Mark,

On Monday I became very protective of you and your team. Like many on the discussion forums, I appreciate all the hard work and efforts to overcome all the challenges of developing and delivering awesome software. I hope I didn't offend you or your team in any way. After trying to reason with this person, I felt I had to deal with the constant basher and complainer in the way I did. I was so pleased to see that you and Ahmad Justin dealt with the person and the situation the way you did. You both have much more patience than I have with these type of people.

I really look forward to beta testing ES 1.3 and providing all the beta test reports and suggestions I can. I have installed EasySocial 1.3 beta 1, have found it awesome and I have added my first few bug and issue reports. I can still make the ferry for my trip today, so when I get to my destination this evening I will do some more beta testing and add my reports.

You and your team will always have my FULL 100% SUPPORT.

Re: the greatest ever extension ever created

It takes a lot of people to make a winning team. Everybody's contribution is important.

Each and every one of us EasySocial customers is a powerful, proactive contributor with full transparency into the business situation the StackIdeas are helping to solve. This is why it is so important to encourage and offer up our full support to the StackIdeas Team. To help the StackIdeas team deliver AWESOME!

And I do believe that most all customers are part of your team and by being supportive of the StackIdeas team is really important to see EasySocial and your other products evolve into what you believe is possible. Yes, EasySocial 1.3 is awesome and EasySocial 1.4 will get even better to solidify it's place as the greatest ever extension ever created

Jan, Thank you so much. That's one of the nicest things someone has said to me in a long time.

Maybe we can do something together. Perhaps you might be interested? I have been working on creating and producing a fun little animated newscast called StackLine ( an animated spoof of Nightline, and heavily influenced by SmartLine hosted by one of my favorite characters in the Simpsons - Kent Brockman.

I started the first episode today (August 27, 2014 at 6:30 PM and have been working on it for the past 10 hours straight to make it available in the forums today. The character development takes time but I have been having a blast. Soon I will start on some new characters for featuring in StackLine as regulars, with Special Guests to follow.

StackLine will air each week on the StackIdeas forums, and will feature weird and funny entertainment news, strange science news, and Joomla focused technology news with a fun twist. I am looking for a newscast script writer that wants to have some giggles writing hilarious new-clips for this animated series. If you are interested, and want to have some fun, and want to entertain some people, let me know. You can get real creative on the news scripts. The funny, and weirder the better. Each week will have one news clip from each area: 1. weird and funny entertainment news, 2. strange science news, 3. Joomla focused technology news, and 4. a follow up on something that was weird and entertaining in the StackIdeas forums. Each episode will be about 6 or 7 minutes in length. Just enough time for some good down to earth humor that makes forums members giggle out loud and get entertained each week.

If anyone else is interested let me know.

Let me know. You can view the first episode here:
AUG 27 - 2014 - STACKLINE - Hosted by Red Randall from Summit Hotel in Seberang Perai Penang Malaysia

http://stackideas.com/forums/aug-27-2014-stackline-hosted-by-red-randall-from-summit-hotel-in-seberang-perai-penang-malaysia

The first episode was quickly written and is a little rough, but I'll be refining the scripts to streamline things for next week. Most of the time was spent creating the animations and the voice overs.

Hope you and others in the forums get entertained and have a few laughs.

This is the Image showing the character development that I worked on today. Soon I will start on some new character with all the voiceover animations and gestures for featuring in the weekly StackLine episodes as regulars, with Special Guests to follow.

This is the Red Randall character after creating the caricature and background set for the Hotel in Malaysia. The animated series is set at the poolside setting Summit Hotel Bukit Mertajam - Seberang Perai, Penang, Malaysia. The StackIdeas Team office is located at Jalan PJU 8/1, Neo Damansara, 47820 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.

Red Randall character development. Having a few giggles making fun of myself with my alter ego Red Randall.



Wait until you see who's next as a regular character in the StackLine series. It could be you!

Thanks a lot Randall,
happy it made your day
I'll think about the ways I could help or at least spread the word... I like the idea, I was also interested in the 'chamber answers'... since we are running professional site too.
Not sure how can exchange contacts here, but I'll keep checking your site.
All the best
