There's no per-user configuration yet, that will be added in the next feature update

Fillip, this is the only complaint I am getting about the mod. People don't like the constant notifications. Please do provide a way to turn this option off as soon as you can. Thanks.

For now, you can turn it off globally by disabling the plugin that executes at notification_list
Can you give me some directions for doing that? I'm not clear on it.

Can we have an Idea of when the next update will be released ?

It's not something being worked on by any of the coders at this moment, so any scheduling info would be a guesstimate and subject to huge variation.

So it was an Empty Promise to pacify? , This is why I said there were a number of things that should have been completed prior to beginning work on the arcade at all ! http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/f101/replacement-gameroom-casino-4719/#post29450We haven't released any feature updates yet
To be Honest Notifications are not the biggest concern I have, I think people have got used to it, I beleive it was sugested I purchase the notifications to remidy this (ig my comparison to VB biz model) and if that would allow my members to filter the whats new feed I would jump on it.
however I do have several loose ends within the products I have purchased one specifically and a showstopper is the feature mentioned here http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/f37/rebuild-reputation-liked-post-3891/
I really don't want to be negative Nancy but I am frustrated with my investments and would like to see that DB still has my back and is trying to make the products great, and not trying to just grab new dollars while dismissing previous products. I really really like this ad on and even after investing in credits prior to Darks move here and reinvesting at DB I have faith it will all be fantastic but it seems that silence and patience has been seen as apathy. My last several post should make it clear I do care. My purchases should reflect I am willing to invest and compensate for good work and I am not simply leaching the freebies.

I'm not sure how you can say it was an "empty promise to pacify"
I went out of my way to tell you that there was no scheduled update at the moment, and now you're saying that because we haven't released one we are breaking a promise?
Can you please show me where we promised you would have this feature update by now?
It honestly feels like you are going out of your way now to try to attack us for things we have never done.

Post # 4 SAYS IT WILL BE ADDED IN THE NEXT FEATURE UPDATE.There's no per-user configuration yet, that will be added in the next feature update

That was 10 months ago and it implies that work is either scheduled or in progress we are now on version 1.1.7 .
One suggestion was to install another db product "notifications" to resolve this. and frankly as I have already said this isn't my biggest concern. It is the fact that by using this product which I do Love the rebuild of rep is not being worked on and that coulds have dire results if for some reason I lose the likes or accidentally rebuild rep from Vbulleton. I want assurance that previous products are not going to stagnate and become obsolete or send my forum into a dead end alley. I don't see this as an attack at all I am trying to express my concerns as a supporting customer and these things strongly affect my confidence in the future of the products I have committed too. Products which removal could have grievous PR issues by the community who has built an account of credits or reputation from the Likes/thank Mod without knowing that it's stability is a shaky as an Obama economy. I am asking you to address these issues before they become a problem, If I accept money for credits I must have accountability and a secure system that maintains the value of these point systems.
I explicitly said "feature update" to avoid this sort of thing happening; I thought it allowed me to release bug fix versions without worry. If I was unclear then I apologise, I distinguish between bugfix releases and feature releases.
v1.1.9, the latest version, is also only a bugfix release

If we ever decide to stop creating updates for a product the customers would be notified =). We have various products made by various coders and as much as we would like to spend all of our time updating products unfortunately the economics of the situation does not allow that - in short we HAVE to make new products.
If I do not give a schedule for a product it means that it is not going to be updated in the immediate future and I don't have a date to give you. Please don't make assumptions about my replies and then blame me for them. My words were

You assumed that meant the work was scheduled to be done in the next X months - At no time did i ever say, or even suggest that. I told you as clearly and plainly as I could that it was not being worked on then and as a result I couldn't give you an idea of when to expect it. I honestly cannot think of a single way I could have been more clear about that. I'm mildly bothered that you are twisting that to somehow be a promise that we broke. That is why it feels like you are attacking us.
I would understand if you contacted us with a question or concern about the update rate on a specific modification. Instead you posted in an unrelated thread attacking us, then claimed we were breaking promises that we never made. That strikes me as the actions of someone trying to cause trouble or offend, not how a customer with legitimate questions or concerns acts.
I go out of my way to discuss schedules in my blog so people are kept up to date on them, and I will answer, honestly, any PMs or questions anyone sends me regarding scheduling or the reasons for scheduling decisions. I go out of my way to do this to be fair to my customers. To be accused of deceiving people or breaking promises is very offensive to me since I go out of my way to be as accommodating and honest as I can.
I have, more than once, posted detailed information on how scheduling is conducted, what business forces shape our update vs new modification decisions, how different coders are responsible for different modifications etc. I do this because I absolutely understand that there are customers who do want to know why decision X or Y was made, and i'm happy to explain why I made those decisions.
For someone to post in an unrelated thread (e.g the vbarcade beta thread) to complain about another modifications release date, and then make claims about us breaking promises before even ASKING anyone those questions bothers me. If you had made a post, or sent a PM, or commented on a blog asking me why modification X hadn't been updated yet I would have happily taken the time to explain the processes involved to you - that's why your posts came across as attacks.
Hopefully that clears it up for you,
Cosmic
