the site needs a fighter stats finder

[Noob]

I´m pretty sure Thumper or Clint could do it. Likely a handful of others.

Yep that was my point Noob
If ya wanna do that fine, Just thought would be better havin one we all worked for

The right way to do this would be to hire a programmer to write a small backend for this. it wouldn't have to be big, or complicated. We're talking about simple data unless you wanted to get carried away.

If you had someone that could write good SQL queries it'd be a snap. Course that's also why good SQL programmers get paid big bucks .

really though, i'm serious when I say this isn't a hard thing to do. the backend only has to be done once and if it's intuitive or at least designed by someone that understands it then all you have left is to have the right people enter the data. Forum support could easily manage that.

This site's here for profit, why not approach the owner? This really isn't that big a problem as long as it doesn't get carried away with the complexity.

if the owner isn't willing to dime up we can surely do it within the community. Who else here does programming? I do php/mysql/javascript/.net/C etc I'm just not a pro SQL guy. I know queries obviously but the trick is to get really nice efficient queries that can do neato stuff.

Do what? i'm confused. I'd be willing to help any way I can.

The best way would be a SQL server backend (which would need hosted on the webserver) and an ASP.net front end to see/add to the database. The problem being that is a whole lot of work for someone to do for free and I dunno if the owner is willing to pay for it (and probably buy SQL as well since I doubt they already have a liscense)

For reference the Database should probably look something like this if you really wanted to be able to add some powerful queries to it:

Well I could construct the db and build a backend. but it would take a little time. I'm not going to do something that's junk. I'd sanitize all the code so it's secure. I'd be willing to take on the project but can't do it by myself.
