Why is this the first I've seen of this?

/me points at his ID line for the VEEC.. ECHC-1.. CEO

It's been worked out more or less with Cos and Kad I believe, but if you want a full run down, I'll toss you something. *shrug*

It hates having dashes in the username, the Name part is fine though.

Nothing I can do about that, sorry.

Say what? You what?

Oooo pretty. Job well done, Doctor.

Thanks for reminding me, should have some tasks up within the hour for that one.

I hope this time it works out.

Well, the comment under the listing on the ComNet says:
Home of the most inactive division in the VE

I guess you really can't get much more blunt than that.  At the moment it's an uphill battle for trying to keep people interested in what they are doing here.  It's not exactly going to be an easy task by any means.

When the VEEC was originally created the point was to be able to make mods to the games and such, but at this point a lot of people are playing games on XBox/PS3 etc.  It's hard to get people that are interested in building mods for games these days. 

What you're going to find at the moment, and granted this is my personal opinion, is a bunch of developers that think they're hot shit, but not really produce much.  Honestly theres no real incentive for them to produce, they're going to join the VEEC and collect the free ICs and produce nothing. 

Part of the problem they're going to have is that this club, by it's nature, is an online club.  Which means that if they are going to produce something they're going to have to get it online some how.  And unless you want a bunch of shitty javascript/flash content to parade around, you're going to be disappointed.  Finding a domain that will be willing to host serverside content with out having to pay for it is kind of a pain in the ass. 

Now, are you going to provide that server space to people that you don't know if you can trust or not?  How are you going to protect yourself from people doing something stupid? Or malicious?

Maybe you could shed some light on what it is that you're expecting your members to do?  I know that at the moment I'm not interested in shelling out money in order to join a sub division (or anything at the moment).  So please, could you show us something besides a spiffy webpage? 

Is there plan, do you have projects for us to start working on? Etc.  Anything more than an application form is useful at this point.  I'm not going to join a secretive corporation.  Which is part of the reason why I never really got very far in the DJO application process.  So please, some transparency into this group would be a good thing.  I want to be proved wrong.

Zane, I know that this post shouldn't be directed at you, but since it seems that you joined, and you asked the question, you get the attention.

I think Kip's referring to actual requested-commissions. :P

So I've decided to put my money where my mouth is, and I have to say I'm still waiting for answers.

Registered on the VEEC website (which requires yet another login, instead of using my VE login).  Logged in, and nothing.  So who ever it is that has to do something for me to be able to look at projects, please let do it.

I have a free hosted subdomain that has server side stuff. What kind of things would you like to see? I know a little PHP but can find a lot more on the web. I know HTML and a bit of CSS and Javascript too. I have experience in making websites and what not. I also like doing the wiki stuff too. What kinds of things do you want me to do?

Meh..

I am willing to do work with Flash now, as well. Graphics too. But also, how would I ask for a commissioned job from the VEEC?

Good Question...
