Separate the US and EU versions of Honorbuddy, maybe on different download links so you don't get a flood of useless support threads.
 
That would solve nothing. Human stupidity will always exist.
 
You just proved my point on human stupidity...
Changing which download gets which won't change anything. It'll make it worse. Especially for the dev's... That's making them work twice as hard to keep each honorbuddy version up.
Why do twice the work when you can do one and save so much more time to fix the already present bugs?
 
Giwin, are you referring to the ninja patch deal? I assume you're EU and its the US side flooding the support with the ninja patch omg the bot is broken give me my money back threads.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to accomplish by splitting them? Split the forum? Split the bot completely? Does the bot not work on EU when the US ninja patches?

I think a little more information about your idea would really clear it all up and may make more people agree. As it stands right now I have no idea what you are suggesting and how it will accomplish solving the issue.

Please do explain your theory further. Splitting the bot in to a EU and a US version (if it isn't already) wouldn't cause any more confusion than there already is. The point is the entire thing would be automated. Also, what part of the bot do you think would have to get updated separately? The bot is the same whether it is EU or US, the only real thing they would manage separately is what version each continent is on. The entire bot is broken down in to many little files that dictate what it does, why would any of those files have to change if they already work for both continents.
 
*sigh* let's put it this way.
You've heard the quote "no two things are the same", correct?
That means NO two things are the same, including this (if it were to be split). So, let's say this: US Bot has a questing bot issue, EU bot has a bgbuddy issue. Now let's say they fix these issues. But wait, each of those issues creates two other issues, and so on and so forth. Fixng a bug isn't as easy as "Copy and Paste". Or changing one variable. It has to all work together. So why would they split it up to create all that fuss when they can just have it all on the same one?
 
I have my own amazing idea. Idiots needs to learn to read and search before posting useless threads about HB not working or they get a 3 day mute.
Seeing posts 10 minutes apart asking/saying the same thing is just...laziness...as far as i am concerned "omg bots broke i am just gonna make a new post rather than see if it's an already known issue and add my voice to that post!" Now, i am not talking about making posts within posts that are already there. I am talking about making new posts asking/saying the EXACT same thing as a post not 5-10 minutes older than the one they are posting.
 
*sigh* (Seeing as you felt like being disrespectful to a legitimate question that points to the biggest flaw in your argument.)
f299, I am a programmer. Do you even remotely have any programming experience? If the bots are the same, which they would still be. There would not be two completely different honorbuddy codes.

In fact, they have this little section of code that detects if your wow version is the version it was coded for. That would be the only section that needed to be modified to have a US/EU version. BGBuddy doesn't require them to code a EU only version just like Questing Bot won't require them to fix a US only bug. What you are suggesting is that now all plugin writers would now have to write a US and a EU version too, which is definitely not what would happen.

The bot bases are completely separate from the injection and control routine.
 
You have completely discarded everything I have just said, which shows to me you're really not a programmer. So I'm not going to waste my time on you any further.
 
twice the work for delaying a release in a certain ip range

i doubt thats true. hardly do.
 
There are already two releases being used. US is using beta and Eur is using regular release right now due to latest WOW patch.
 
*Yawn* f299, you've only wasted mine with your crap theory about how there are going to be magical bugs in the same code.

look, US almost always gets patches before EU, so usually like with these patches, there's a beta out and it will stay in beta till eu gets the patch or if enough people need it as soon as its issues are resolved and its ready to be called stable.

if people need to update then they can update, if they dont need to then they wont.
