Hey Arn, what would we need to do to get a business dev forum up and running? Do you need anything from the community? Mod volunteers, forum suggestions?
Got a tip for us?

iPhoneDevSDK gone?

Maybe it's a good sign it's taking longer that usual.
If they came back quickly, then it would mean nothing has changed. It would be business as usual with
the same problems as before.
But, if it took longer, perhaps it means somebody is actually trying to fix the problem, find a new
forum with better security and spam-filtering, fix a database problem, or whatever the case.
It's nice to see some familiar names here in this thread at least. But it is sad that all of the information that had been shared in that forum might be gone. They are still listed at buyads.com, but I hope they aren't still taking orders. According to that site though, the parent company is appstorehq which still works fine.
The Business, Legal, and Marketing forum over there was like my water cooler. It's where I went everyday to get a break from coding and catch up on the happenings on the app store. If it is gone for good, I'll be sad.

I always checked the 'appstore wait thread' when I have submitted apps, since I never know how long I have to wait.
I read that the wait can be up to 14 days now. That's almost half a month! I can probably create a new app
just waiting now.
just created the app store wait thread =)

thanks arn! hoping we get some high quality discussion here. the quality of the iPhoneDevSDK forums was going downhill anyway
Developers could buy ad space to advertise their apps. Although I feel it was a bit wasted as most games/apps on there weren't targeted at developers.
Awesome, thanks for making this!
My two daily go-to sites were MR and iPhoneDevSDK. Now it'll be MR only.
EDIT: Hmm, it looks like the errors on the iPhoneDevSDK forum have changed. I wonder if they're planning on bringing the forum back online.. If so, the question is: should we continue to rely on iPhoneDevSDK or not?

You can thank my bad luck for the site being back up. Haha. I just spent all day creating a replacement forum at iPhoneDevBoard.com and iPhoneDevSDK came back up minutes after I finished. le sigh.
Oh well, it is worth the wasted $13 domain registration to see my old hangout on the internet back up, and looking spiffier than ever, I might add.

GoDaddy has been acting up all day, I'm not sure it was worth the hassle of dealing with that! haha. Oh well, now I have all the time in the world to finish the site. I don't think the users will be pouring in with the real deal back.
I'll have to spend more time posting on iPhoneDevSDK instead of just lurking now that I know how much I miss it when it is gone.

iphonedevsdk.com is back. But their new design/theme is super ugly and makes my head hurt
Garish gradients everywhere and silly icons creating needless clutter. I don't know what they're thinking.

The gradients don't bother me, but the icons are a bit loud. Maybe they'll change it if users start complaining. Or maybe they won't and all their users will run to my, now pointless, forum. Muhaha! (not holding my breath on that one. haha)
I'd also like it if they fixed the logo to match the new site color, right now it stands out too much. But I can deal with all of that annoyance just to be able to get my daily Business, Legal, and Appstore fix.
Yeah, it's really ugly, but I think alot of it comes from default settings in Vanilla Forums. I'm sure with a little bit time they'll look a tiny bit better.
If it can cut down on the malware and other problems, then that is a great thing. I'm not sure what vanilla does that vbulletin doesn't, in that regard though.
There are some cool new features, like the Facebook-esque wall. I don't think many people will really take advantage of that though. I haven't even looked at my "wall" to see what it looks like yet.
I'm still getting malware warnings for that site, but they might be two days old by now. It sure doesn't help to be browsing this on a PC, that's for sure
