Get off Vent and start using TS3 
I learned Pawn in about four hours, time says very little about one's capability to do something. Ask him to emphasise on his PHP knowledge. HTML and CSS aren't programming languages, and I wouldn't care about Perl because "@#)($*@#($*!)!``1" is valid syntax. Furthermore, "nasm" isn't a language, it's a program that can be used to check out Assembly code.
Define everyone. A Vent server with you and seven random users is far less representative than a Vent server with Fireburn, Wesley, Pugwipe, MrBondt and Jay on it.
- The function doesn't have to be defined as a public function.
- What is "ssoc"? Function names should be clear!
- Variable naming is vague, wtf is "ia"?
- Spacing is terrible, way too many statements on a single line, there barely are any spaces in the if() statement. Combined with the lack of proper variable naming it's hard to understand what this actually does.
- "lVehicles", why prefix this with an "l"? Lollection?
It's unclear, while he seems to know what he's doing he must understand that documentation is important. Readability and maintainability is important.

Quote:He just said on Vent that he talked to Fireburn about becoming an LVP Developer, and I personally think he's one of the best guys we could 'get' right now. He hasn't been scripting Pawn for more than a week, but he knows: PHP,
HTML, CSS, perl, mIRCscript, he can also read/code in C/C++/C#/VB 4-6 and .net/nasm.

Quote:I really think we should give him a chance, he learns INCREDIBLY fast and is a great guy. (Everyone who has talked to him on Vent/IRC agrees)
