Oh, hey, it's the thread I mentioned was worth making.
I've mentioned a couple ideas to you, but they're scattered and trying to find most of them is probably a vain effort. But from what I can remember:
- The user profile needs a ton of work.
We already know the VMs are broken, but while they're being fixed we should have the option to disable/private the section as well. Similar things could be said for the other sections, too. The trophy and arena rankings are currently useless right now (as in they haven't really been addressed/touched by staff for anyone in a long time), but you can only hide the arena rankings. As for the images section, Mahz mentioned that he had some ideas he wanted to work on, but I'm not aware if he ever finished them. There's a list he made somewhere in the news section that he typed up, but I don't remember where it is exactly.
I know you've mentioned prior that you're working on a few things for profiles already (like better avatar suppport), but since these are all public things I figured to mention something about them.
- Status bar
I know some people have issues with the status bar. I personally don't (aside from when people have lengthy conversations that aren't maybe an extra status or two). Rather than have a status "bar", there could be a status "page", like how
RPN has theirs set up. This would contain the statuses for those who do not wish to see them, and as well keep it for those who want it. Plus, it'd solve the issue of people having full conversations in the bar by giving them the ability to actually respond to that specific status in question.
The only issue I'd see spring up is that since RPN status/posts are more akin to VMs (they're technically "profile posts", not statuses, on RPN), so it'd make VMs essentially redundant if it's copied 1:1.
- More thread customization.
We need more thread tags. The ones that exist now are okay, but allowing people to be more specific could be useful (as in being able to tag "zombies" or "alien invasion" rather than just "apocalyptic/post apocalyptic"). The fourth tab--spare tab, lore tab, etc. that people have been requesting for awhile would make things much better on the guild, too.
- Ability to link things
First, we all know [youtube] exists. But I feel we do need a few more tagging options, like [spotify] or the like for people to be able to plug music and what not into their posts. Secondly, perhaps look at the [img] tag and add more support to it? I don't know how many times I've had to go back and fix a link because it ended in .gifv and not .gif. Maybe add something like .mp4 for video support, too.
Anyway, those are just some of the ideas I've got rolling around in my head. I've definitely got more, but I've got some other stuff to do. Plus, others are already voicing off ideas I've had myself (like the 1x1 issue and making a secondary section to keep it from being a smut haven like it is now).
