GMOD Prime - An Alternative Server Browser (alpha!) - Garry's Mod

I will, I still gotta change a few things to support communities instead of servers

I slipped a couple small updates in, the home page now only shows the 4 newest communities, but it shows 4 random ones too I also made it so people can only rate communities once, and I finally added the option to delete comments!

Please make deleting comments site mods only, I don't want to see some douchebag delete all negative comments when people are trying to express how bad the server is. Also, a bit of an extreme idea, but could you make it a requirement to state a reason when you dislike a server? Or make it so that dislikes/likes are attached to one comment only? Kind of like a review, so it would be easier to challenge when someone is disliking servers just to make theirs higher on the list.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I spent like 10 minutes writing out the description for my server and you've gone and wiped it :v:

I added markdown to server descriptions! now you guys can add some flair to your pages. it's pretty much the same as reddit, but there's a guide on the website too if you need it [img]http://i.imgur.com/TjTtR6Z.png[/img]

I am grateful for the formatting, but I can't seem to space out my text into paragraphs anymore. For example, [QUOTE]Here's a sentence Another another sentence[/QUOTE] Will just be condensed to [QUOTE]Here's a sentence Another another sentence[/QUOTE] Do you know what might be causing that or how to manually insert newlines with this formatting? [B]Edit[/B] Either I just made a change that fixed it, or you did something on your end, but spacing seems to work now.

another overdue update, fixed searching by gamemode/map underscores are weird for some reason though

Will there be an api people can query?

there kind of already is, what would you need it for? right now, there's: [code] /api/info - the stuff at the bottom of every page /api/communities - returns a list of community ids and the total amount of communities, options: amt: amount of ids to return, defaults to 10 start: offset to start at sortBy: field to sort by, defaults to 'added' (sort by time) you can also do 'random' to sort randomly reverse: reverse the sort order, defaults to false /api/community/<id> - returns info about a community /api/user - returns info from steam about you (if logged in) /api/userdata/<id> - takes 64 bit steam id, returns database info, if you don't give an id, it uses yours [/code]

Cool service. Only really discovered what it is when I found out the community I am working for was on it. I can't say I see many players using this to find servers to play on, but it's good to have the option none the less. Plus a spot of advertising does no harm.

Would it be possible to show the total number of votes that are determining the 'Liked' percentage? For example, if someone's community was 100% because there was only a single vote, but another person's community had a solid 90% average from dozens of votes, the former community's percentage would look better, even though the latter has much more attention with a solid rating. Something like either the top image (#[B]liked [/B]/ #[B]total[/B]) or bottom image (#[B]total[/B]): [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/POYHW99.png[/IMG] I personally like the [B]bottom [/B]one just showing the total number of votes. To make it fit, I shrank the [B]font-size[/B] in [I]community-view span[/I] to 12px (13px works too) and added 5px of [B]margin-right[/B] to [I]community-view .feedback .badge [/I][B]Oh, I put votes but ratings would probably make more sense.[/B]

[QUOTE=PortalGod;46908254]would it be better if I just changed the badge to say 10/10 instead of 100%?[/QUOTE] I don't want to speak on everyone's behalf, but I personally really like the badge. If you had to choose between changing it to something else or leaving it the same, which would you prefer the most?

[img]http://i.imgur.com/b2TXCfc.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/POYHW99.png[/img] I just meant changing it like the bottom left, but out of these 4, which is best? I like either the bottom left or the top right

[QUOTE=PortalGod;46908405]I just meant changing it like the bottom left, but out of these 4, which is best? I like either the bottom left or the top right[/QUOTE] I guess looking at it like that, I like bottom left and top right too. Probably bottom left a little bit more, especially if you keep the color coding based on the average (green/orange/red).

the bottom left is up now, let me know what you think

[QUOTE=PortalGod;46908611]the bottom left is up now, let me know what you think[/QUOTE] I like the bottom right more.

Nice site. I just added my server with a description and the description came out nicely formatted. I do wish the banner size was a bit bigger though. Also isn't the Steam log-in button suppose to be the one provided by Steam?
