Yet another suggestion...
How about a [Note] tab?
"Gold is 4b*8 + 6" look like a short note (I'm not discriminating this type of 'hack',  as long as it is helpful to the user, it is a good information).
I would like some info like "Flash 9+,  obfuscated", "html5, server-sided, time-management", "unity, fps" etc.
Or may input "ABC function is at module xxx.yyy.zzz", so may be helpful to other cheat maker.etc.

So, a [Note] tab that accept short info, limited length < 60-99 char, each note may award 1 point, max 5 per game per user etc.

To handle the opening message problem, "Gold is 4b*8 + 6" type of hacks should place on the [Note] tab.

bye~

(I've the idea that the hack list panel should store more meta data, this suggestion may be an alternative)

How about AoB auto-detection (check if submitted hack contains sequences of HEX values in CE-acceptable format, ignoring color/bold/etc codes within those sequences) for instant submission rewards, and vote/review system for the rest of hack types? This would deal with the issue about unrewarded hacks for unpopular games.

Also make that notes tab, add a category selector (AoB/info/etc.) to the submission page and different points according to that.

Language indication would be nice too.  I've been digging in RoM recently, and although it's variables seem to be all translated, i've encountered some chinese here and there...

I've made up my mind on how I'm going to program this beast.  I hope it will work out better than the current system.

Once the programming is in place, I will post the documentation.

It may be a week before this gets taken care of.  I have 2 new servers to install tonight.

Hi, sorry to bother, i am Nuriell, i made this account to ask about my ban and found this thread.

To what i see it seem that posting more time an hack with the same value is considered an abuse but i was doing it cause i thinked that one value was one hack and seying this done in so much game made me feel that it was the right way so if only 1 value change for an update only the value will need to be changed.

I am sorry if this have created problem with the site, i don't want to be a burden and i have done it with good intention feeling that this was the best way to proceed (at the beginning i was making only 1 post for each value but seeying a lot of users posting one time for each main stats i thinked that was the way he needed to be done beiing it unclear).

Now that i know that is a problem i will not do it anymore, also if there a feel that i have done it only for points feel free to remove as much as you like or to ban my profile completely and i start from the beginning.

Really, it was not my ntention to make such a fuss, just lettimng me know that this was a problem will have solved the problem (at least for me).

Please let me know what is the last decision, temprary\permanent ban, points removal, a donation to cover costs and son on, i will accept it and again excuse me if i have done something wrong.
 

So, wait, the redirect to goatse is a punishment? Here all this time I thought it was a reward. >_> Well, I'll be.
 

Urge to grammar nazi intensifies.

What TIM said seems the most fair thing so far,
also maybe consider a report system for obvious false hacks, multiple game submissions etc...

Well, my laptop is dead again.  The fucking power supply exploded last night.  To add to the fucking frustration, power died around 3am again...

I ordered a replacement psu for the laptop, here's the shipping estimate.

After much consideration, I've decided they have either...
1) Shipped the item via carrier pigeon.
2) Strapped the item to the back of Lucky the Tortoise and sent him on his way.
3) Handed it off to the blind girl from The Village. (what a twist!)

Anyway, nothing's changing for now.  I need my laptop back up and running before I can even think about starting work on the site.  I just don't trust other computers with that kinda responsibility. :P
