lets see if a dev has balls to chime in and explain it to you
edit:
I found the following posting of a trusted member
a user posted this:
There have been sites scammed by their devs before, and it wasnt made public because the owners was too ashamed of trusting some dev they dont even know.
the trusted member answered:
Sites shouldn't give server access to their developers. Does MP? It seems kind of dangerous to trust a stranger with a million dollars of other people's money.
now my common sense is telling me that in case of MP or any other casino which should not give their devs access to the server (seeds) and the possibility to steal the BR that there must be an option for the devs to still do the work for MP or the casino.
please correct me if I am wrong! and if I am wrong I apologize to MP head dev CrazyCraig
Jpr, I know that you are not a developer and are vaguely familiar with the industry.
Unfortunately, even a minimum wage job requires that an employer place some sort of trust in their employees. The job interview process exists to weed out untrustworthy and unfit candidates.
MoneyPot's industry is no different than the e-commerce organization's that I work at. Engineers are responsible for the creation and maintenance of the software, the implementation of the software, and the platforms that host that software.
If the owners of the e-commerce company that I work for were engineers, I wouldn't have a job. While they may have an understanding of how things work, they lack the technical skill to do what I do.
Development isn't as easy as deploy and go. As data is consumed, bugs are found, systems crash, and databases grow. As requests and users grow, performance is impacted. Its my job as an engineer to manage this and make sure everything plays nicely. That means at my full time job, I have theoretical access to personal data, credit information, and order information. I have to be trusted with that or I wouldn't be able to do my job.
In both situations, the programs and scripts that I write power the applications that my employers rely on. If I was to do something negligent, I wouldn't even need direct access to the database as I could do it behind the scenes through scripts. The MoneyPot ownership group has direct access to all of my scripts and operations. Database access is limited to DogeDigital and myself.
In MoneyPot's case, we have a system set up that logs every query into a UI that the owners can view. If an unrecognized query is detected through platform, we would know. We have permissions set on the various user accounts limiting access to certain operations. and have alerts deployed when servers are accessed.
In some cases, casino owners such as Douglus, Ryan, and Dean are technical and can manage their own platforms. That may not be exactly true for all, and thats why its important that they entrust developers as they focus on business operations.
I know that you as a casino owner haven't exactly had the best track record with developers. I understand that some may have screwed you and put a bad perception in your eyes. I'm sorry for this, but this goes back to my first point in this post: It is important to filter potential candidates.
In an effort to resolve our conflicts, I am more than willing to assist you in finding a confident developer and one that will help you going forward. Whether you go with Betking, Betbase, or on your own, you will need to learn how to place some sort of trust in your developer unless you have the knowledge to manage the systems that power your platform.
