Can you write code/modifications for vBulletin?

We at EN World have a range of plans for the future of this site, and we would like to bring a programmer onboard to help us bring these about. This is not volunteer work; it's paid work.

This isn't a full-time job - we aren't big enough to employ anybody full-time! - but we would like a good, reliable coder to come onboard in a freelance capacity. So yes, it's paid work for specific projects as-and-when we need them.

It's vital that you know how to code for vBulletin (the backend messageboard software upon which the rest of EN World is built); our planned projects will be based on this backbone just like all the other features here at EN World.

It's also important that you're a gamer: we need to be able to explain concepts to you without having to start at the basics ("This is a dice...it generates random numbers.")

It's also desirable that you have a firm grasp of English: some of the basic concepts behind programming projects related to RPGs can be difficult to explain at the best of times.

If you're interested, and can start almost immediately on an exciting upcoming project, please email me at morrus<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention --> AT hotmail dot com.

Since it's been paid, I'd ask for references and/or examples of existing working (should be at least PHP based, if not vBulletin; should also be familiar with whatever database you are using; I'll assume MySql).

Definitely structure it with contracts that outline time frame, milestones, etc. as part time consulting can often disappear without any notice. And make sure to have design docs; they don't have to be complex, but they are necessary to make sure everyone is on the same page.
 


I know MySQL, Visual Basic and ABAP/4. While I could LEARN it fast, you'd be better finding someone that already knows it and has experience.

If that person does not materialize, however, let me know.
