The list was unusable. There were thousands upon thousands of duplicate IPs and many errors :(

I updated the MMC FAQ with information on the Power City Click Exchange. It is not a substitute for Tend My City which is for some reason down for a while but its something.

I am getting between 500-800 credits a day on Yarolds, but they seem to go so fast, so I was wondering if the clicks are actually counting, or if people are leaving before it counts?

Each person can probably click a couple of times. In the History section links show even if they have been clicked already usually and Yarolds is not perfect often showing the link a couple of times a day. Save credits by setting yourself to show in Dynasty only but we wont get as many hits but it can let you bank credits.

OK, I will do that. We get about the same amount of clicks, but it will just be over time.

Pretty much. You can get around 2000 credits banked in a week like that. Many of the clicks are wasted in the History section. Your link will show up there even if it was already clicked if you clicked or someone clicked you but at least you can get it out of the main. There are good clicks there you just dont want to always have your credits saved you know :) Good for times when you want to take a break.

BTW, I was kinda pissed off that all those cities passed up when the Hurricane knocked me off the net so I went and did a little digging and found some more stuff. I have kicked us up to 1100 pop a day with the same in construction which I should be able to keep up. I seriously want in the top ten and I will not stop trying to grow us past what I can maintain until I get there.

I have taken a small break aswell, because I am having some problems with getting on at the moment.

Wow, I can't believe how old this thing is. And the thing hasn't expired or anything yet! Amazing. And the city is pretty big...

Almost inspired me to make a TheHelper Cityville city... [Facebook game application]

This was good times. Ace, me and a couple other guys got all caught up in MyMiniCity. We went in and swarmed their forum. I started this FAQ and started setting us up to get automatic hits from Link Exchanges. Ace found out how the game made its maps and was able to create a future city function, and was able to integrate it into the website. A couple of other guys went into the forums and helped me with the Link Exchanges and managing our presence on the forums.

People were interested in the tool Ace had, the city predictor. He had hacked some hash code that everyone was looking for so we tried to bargain with the mmc forums to put is into first place on the list. I think they actually considered it. The mmc forum people have this huge proxy list they can go through and massively effect your visits in a short time. There is no way to compete with people like that so forget about top 10 unless after all these years MMC is dead.

City looks good though.

I just went back and read this thread. Then I read the city thread. What a blast from the past. I was so into that game and then I just quit. Got frustrated and did not want to do what you had to, in order to win. If you could direct that many hits, you could aim it at Google Click Ads or set websites. Basically sell clicks. At that point I did not want to be involved anymore. So I quit.

Did a Great FAQ on it though!

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
