You're asking all these things from developers but you offer nothing in return. Do you really expect someone to join?

Yes, developers who code for the satisfaction and enjoyment of programming still exist. If you're not interested and are only in it for the money then feel free to move on.

Yeah, that still exists. But I don't understand why someone would put in so much time for someone else's project just for 'coding satisfaction', most scripters would then just work on their own projects or apply for a community that is already on their feet or something they like. I've seen many rp servers come to this forum section, ask absurd requirements from potential developers, offer nothing in return. Let me also answer how many players applied: 0

 

Good luck with finding someone tho.

Developers who code for the satisfaction and enjoyment of programming still exist because all developers must feel satisfaction and enjoyment programming but the money it's an important field when working for someone.

I don't know if either of you have been a part of a team within a community but it follows the same principle as players being administrators or specific team members within servers, they do it completely voluntarily and expect nothing in return apart from the statuated position that they receive. You become an administrator if you want to assist players and uphold a position to assist a community in striving, and developers do the same by writing code and seeing their work being used in a live environment.

We're not searching for developers that we're going to just throw under the bus and fire workload at, it's an opportunity to work within a team and create a whole environment. Sure there isn't many developers left out there who don't work for money but this advertisement is targeted towards the few that are interested in not just programming, but who want to get involved in aiding a community and being a part of it. There's no harm in us trying.

You can't compare programming to being Administrator or Moderator or any kind of that stuff from gaming community. That's literally whole new category of work. That literally takes almost 0 effort and time comparing to programming. That's why people do it for free, not asking anything else in return than other that status. By judging off of these requirements what you've put on. I can say with ease, that you trying to milk someone without anything in return. You basically ask someone to make a project for you without giving anything in return. As people said above, don't expect to find anyone.

If you don't see it that way I do, then I respect your perspective - this topic is to catch the eye of those who are looking to get their hands on a new project - there is no harm or fault in trying.
