^.^ Just ignore it.

[quote=o0_hyper]its not really unique i dont think... i was in the nursery malls and theyve always had that button that links u to a page with banners for all 4 malls so u can look at all the categories for all the malls...[/quote] 1. Nursery malls were linked to a petpage, they weren't interlinking the same category shops between branches. 2. Yes it was sarcasm, there's a reason Dmitri called it "Neopia's First Interlinked Mall Network" we were considering taking bets on how long it would be before someone copied his idea yet again. Now lets see how long it is before they come up with the Neopian Fishery category - and they won't even bother changing the name. 3. How about coming up with something original, that will draw in more hits and your mallers will appreciate it more than copying off some other mall. 4. If you think my response was rude, how about coming on this site and discussing copying and idea of the person who is running it, without even having the courtesy of approaching them about it first?

So are you telling me that Nursery Mall had UNIQUE mall codes FOR EVERY one of their members? I assume you guys dont use php, so that must mean the nursery mall's petpage had 30 (or however many members it has) different textarea codes on it? In X-Mart for example, we currently have 42 unique codes powering the interlink between the spots which directly connect each person's shops in a logical manner. But thanks to PHP and a MySQL database, this code is created on-the-fly each time an xmart member loads the XPA page on this site. This means we dont have to update the mall code 42 times every time someone leaves/enters the mall. But since you guys probably dont use any database backends, you must have updated the mall code and the interlink manually for each member in each branch, each time someone joined/left the mall. Am I correct? P.S. the Xmart's mall banner page reports an "Access Denied" error by at least one of the posters here...

why are u guys attacking us like this ? we havent even done this interlinked thing... we were just talking about it... u need to calm down...

Many other people will think of interlinking their mall branches and you do not have the jurisdiction to make them stop. You aren't the government and its not copyrighted. There was no reason for you guys to come and "attack" us. Take a chill pill its getting way out of hand.

Did you guys even read my post? That was far from an attack, trust me. I said it a lot nicer than a lot of other people are thinking it.

yes i read ur post but we arent copying u guys cause we havent even done it yet... we were just talking about it and then u came in here all defencive or whatever saying we were copying u guys...

There is no need to cause a ruckus over this situation. If you're going to use something like the interlinking and want to brand yourself as one of the best malls, isn't it safe to say of course some people are going to get the idea to use it as well and go ahead and do so. And the part about asking - yes it might be polite to say something - but either way nobody needs your permission to do anything. And the sarcasm really was uncalled for. Take someone thinking of your idea as great and wanting to do something like it more as flattery than as hateful. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=evilbluemunkeyz

We're not stopping you :) And no one said anything about us being the government either. By all means, go for it. But be prepared to come up with something when people go, "Wait...didnt that weird blue mall do the interlink in that manner... *shifty eyes*" P.S. That was far from an attack lol. An "attack" would have been something like: [quote]"What the heck seriously. Did someone drink all the creativity juices or something? Seriously, go buy yourself a damn brain on eBay and come up with something unqiue. At least dont call it the F-ing interlink. Do something like 'what a tent pole likes to do' or "The Ultimate Connection", "the gateway" or even "Kirsty and Brain: Late night edition, uncensored" Failed. Ruined it.

I noticed that the page layout of the malls is pretty similar to that of the Nursery before they changed their layouts, without coding credited to brexis. The stats table is the same, even the smiley faces Cris uses (=D), and the rules are blatenly copied. I also noticed a big similarity in mall names with TML, using worlds and having "branch" after it instead of "crew". The Nursery has/had one button that said visit our other mall branches and linked to one page where the malls were. This isn't interlinked like XMart does and the 'original idea' of linking petpet shop with other petpet shops is how Dmitri has his 'Interlinked' malls set up. I'm not trying to take sides. I noticed this before anyone posted, but now that the cat's out of the bag, I wanted to give my two cents.
