Argonath Stock Market V3 - 3 days

[Teddy]

Its back to the drawing boards, not just the rephrase board. We're taking all of the hard produced work of ASM so far and trashing it. Using the latest in development and web design, we will recreate ASM from scratch. We aren't talking about just recreating it to its glory as of now, we are going for bigger, better, faster, and even more glory than ever before or thought possible.

The new system will use a modular oriented programming style, compared to our current procedural style now which leads to problems when adding new features, making bug fixes, and in general working as  team. We'll be using our own custom remixed MVC(model-view controller) style of programming that'll allow us to bring and provide simply the best and fastest possible service.

Our giant step forward will be taking place on side of our current general work to the current system. So everything in our current site will resume as planned and operational.

What exactly will be new?
New look & feel (theme)
New site. That is all we can say so far.

How long will this take?
Looking at roughly 5-6 weeks.

Will it require testing?
Yes. Our beta testers now will be the same testers of that new system plus any Argonath Admin+ is eligible for beta testing.

Without further delay, its back to the actual drawing board to sort my mind. Also, please welcome Adam. as our new trial developer!

Thanks Tedd.

I am happy to be helping here, and ever since I joined, I knew that the excitement won;t go out. Thanks, Tedd for the opportunity to help develop a fast growing market.

Best regards to all,

In the near future, hopefully tomorrow we will find us a central home here on the forums and move our 'important updates' to http://asm.argonathrpg.com/blog/ this will establish a location for us to keep everyone updated. We are hoping to get a single topic here in the forums in a general location as we have become more broadly accepted in servers and would like to not have multiple topics to post the more serious updates and check for generalized information. Do note, we are still waiting for the platform of blog software to be ready. Some cool new is that we will be the only site on the internet running the blogging software. So it may be a bit buggy at first as we'll have a private alpha release copy.

  Very nice frank, interested to see how it plays out. Perhaps in the near future our individual ventures will cross paths.


A preview of A.S.M 3.0

[Teddy]

Our system is being taken offline currently while we finish up the last of Argonath Stock Market 3.0, we need the main site offline in order to safely manage the database and make effective updates and massive restructuring for the new version.

The new Argonath Stock Market system has been entirely rethought, remade and after tons of work, research, and redoing we have got the base of the idea what we wanted for the new system planned out. Currently we're building the system on top of the layout, and should be done in about 2 weeks. Any person who has gone public on Argonath Stock Market will continue to hold their stocks on the Market, and they will transfer over shortly.

We are also going to be posting shortly a regulations booklet; This will contain all new rules and regulations of trade on the Market.

Some other things being introduced officially are:

Hedge Funds - Group Investments
SEC - Regulations, Punishments
FBI Integration - Oversight, Legal Action, Fraud Prevention

Official Group Investments:

Groups that have official status (clans) can request public market, Mafias wishing to go public will need a business to front.
Groups will be SEC regulated, and will have a maximum investment transfer of $1,000,000 ARD per week.

Unofficial Group Investments:

Groups (clans) without official status can request going on the public market. Mafias wishing to go public will need a business to front.
Groups will be Market regulated, and will have a maximum investment transfer of $500,000 per 2 weeks.

Low Cost Opening:

We will no longer be charging a going public fee, now you only pay the price of the flat rate going stock ($15) per stock with a minimum of 100,000 shares. This fee is subject to change without warning.

Robust System:

The entire system is redesigned, as in the operations from the simple features. We have placed much effort into modernizing the system and building the platform to not only meet modern standards but to exceed the standards. The system is designed to work under pressure, and under failure. If one part of the system encounters an error, the rest of the system will continue to operate without harm. and of course, not an inch of security was risked, we consulted with other professionals to ensure the maximum security was achieved.

ASM Development Team

I've been ready for three weeks now! Bring it on, tiger!

The system is in mid beta, we are working to resolve some issues with a few things once we do this and finish up some loose end we will be ready to go.

I smell a few more weeks there...  :trust:

Welp, I'm back with development, and as you can see we are just a tad bit late. Rest assured we are in fact close to being done and V3.0 will be released soon enough. Glad to be back and in development again.
