HackForums Is Big, Why Doesn't It Have Any API(s)?

If you want to change someone's signature without PMing them:
1. Buy a domain + hosting.
2. Upload a photo and place it in domain.com/photo.png
3. If you ever need to change the picture just change the photo.png
4. PROFIT

What about making the image link to a thread on HF. Here comes the problem. I already mentioned that changing the signature is an easy task.

Yea it's great idea, but you can't get living income from your signature ( average price it's from 2$ to 10$/month ) rent so it's kinda hard to believe that it will be implemented
I sell Ethereum for PayPal weekly. PM if you need

Set up a redirection on domain.com/redirect

You would find a way if it was really needed.

Well, you solved my problem. Now, I still need the API to grab the users' stats.

Someone could probably code this for you easily.

Make a code that goes to their /profile&uid**** and search up "Posts per day: **" etc.

No I wouldn't know how to do this.

It has to be very exclusive, its also just another entry point into peoples accounts so it would have to be very secure.

I would use it, but not pay for it.
I dont like annoying sigs. So hey, im wez.

You are required to be logged in to do this. Also, I think Omni said somewhere that making application fetch Hackforums is not allowed. Correct me If I'm wrong. Also, I know how to do that.

Oh if he said it wasn't allowed then I guess you shouldn't do it.
Just put in a link of the user's profile then.

Let's see if Omni takes this into consideration. Because I wanted to actually implement a search function and also have user's sorted according to Posts and Rep in the home page.

If Omni feels like it, then maybe one day. Very good suggestion ^^

I hope to get a response of a Mentor or any staff member.

If you shout "Positive" loud enough he will come, trust me.

Based on thousands of rejected suggestions, I'd say Omniscient most likely would prefer if people didn't connect HF to any application, with the exception of the web browser.

Why is that. Creating services connected to HF would be amazing, and may grow the community even further with more developers willing to integrate HF to their applications someway.
