Douglas missed this episode because his return flight from Long Beach the day before suffered a seven hour delay (read more if you’re interested), effectively turning it into a red eye flight, so he slept in during this episode. TalkShoe apparently wasn’t being cooperative, but in a fairly Official Podcast-esque episode of phpBB Weekly, he is joined via a Skype conference call by phpBB team members Paul and Techie-Micheal.
This episode, like about a third of our episodes to date, is all about MODs. David, Paul, and Micheal talk extensively about MOD Development, the MOD Database, and other things MOD authors may want to know. Finally, they talk a bit about the tribulations of giving support for boards with MODs on them, and what the Support Team can and cannot do to help you when a MODded board needs help.
Okay, by now, I’m sure a number of you are wondering what’s going on with phpBB Weekly, and I’d like to take a moment to give a few explanations.
The live listeners will note that I have missed a couple of episodes in a row. I had anticipated missing phpBB Weekly #035 because I had to take the PSAT test that morning, however I did not anticipate missing phpBB Weekly #036 this morning, however after suffering a seven-hour delay on my return flight from LAX last night, I slept through much of the show. If you’d like to find out more about what I’ve gone through this week, check out my blog.
Because of my trip and school commitments, I did not get phpBB Weekly #035 released in a timely fashion this week. I therefore am promising that phpBB Weekly #035 will be released by the end of the day today, and I will be releasing phpBB Weekly #036 (what David recorded this morning) during the middle of the week this week. I really hope to make my triumphant return next Saturday, November 3rd.
A big thank you goes to all of our listeners for understanding and continuing to be fans of the show.
