This forum is ta see what stuff we think would be cool for the site.

Granted, these are JUST suggestions. I like the site a damn lot...otherwise Iwouldn't keep coming back, and this isn't a bitching forum or a whining forum.

This is for serious suggestions, stupidity shouldn't apply here.

Look at it as a prayer to the divinities ya?

Me, I think small titles would be cool...the divinities have big stuff, and it should stay that way, so there's a definate caste system, but I think it would be sweet if every so often somebody got touched a bit a recognized for who they were by the higher powers...for good or ill...hell, it could even be something as simple a somethin' they could put in their signature box. Nothing big, but a little identity can go a long way.

Though I totally understand how damn busy the folks upstairs have to be, it'd still be sweet.

anyone else got some serious un-stupid ideas?

I think that another good idea would be a corner similar to the Fiction Workshop except that it involves articles in general. A person moderates it, implements submitted work, and then exposes it to people, allowing them to critique the article on the subjective standards of the site AS well as grammar. I don't see myself as a professional at grammar, but I am sure that there are some well-educated individuals that can help. Just food for thought for I know that Editors have to deal with undesired articles ALL the time and it would relieve the load on their back if people in doubt can send it to other individuals and get some criticism...if not send it in and have it posted in the forum.

The only risks with this is that it may invite heat concerning controversial views (happens here anyway) to the point where some people's opinions may cloud their judgment. Otherwise, I don't think it'd be -too- bad of an idea. I'd not mind helping, but I still am working on my own bad grammar, lol.

Maybe it isn't the best idea, but it came to my head when Dolo posted in this forum.

i think it would be neat if we sent a letter to every new person that signed up asking them what they think, why they joined, and what it will take for them to talk. and if we purged the member list more often.

I dunno, Dolo... I think its good that we mortals don't have titles... The deities get more respect that way...

Callei: That's a cool idea. It'd certainly set off the flamer-radar* sooner...

*or lurker, or angsty/poetic-14-year-old, or what-have-you...

Thats a pretty nifty idea Callei...figures. heh heh.

And Ironboots, I ain't saying anything big, something similiar to the Member, Fanatic, Extreme Fanatic thing would be cool...new stuff is always fun, and Shmeng could use an ass-injection of fresh just like everything else in the world.
I mean, for example, if you got nailed a minor title, your forum additions could read
Ironboots
Fanatic Forum King

etc...

For some reason the fiction workshops seem a little like communism, excellent in theory but strangely unworkable in reality. Mebbe it's just the very slightly greater effort involved in them...or something, I dunno. Personally, if my articles go up, I prefer to see them on the main page...it's just neat like that. But regardless, they were at least decent ideas to begin with.

I have disagree with yoo on the title thing, Dolo. Even though I was never a fan of the whole karma thing I did like the idea that nobody knows what their status is unless their in the Pantheon. Although I never really cared what my status is because people either deal with mee or tell mee to get the fuck out and so far, the latter has not occured.

I do think it might be cool if perhaps instead of "Fanatic" or whatever, it says the person's title (for the Pantheon of course).

I do have to agree with yoo on the fiction workshop thing. I don't like working on my pieces (not that I contribute much in that area of the site, but still). It's an impulsive thing for mee. If I have to think about it afterwards I'll hate it and won't want to post it.

Purging the system of the superfluous Shmenglings is definatly a good idea.

Yoo know, now that I think about it, how about something like the Greek system of ostracizm? If a certain number of Shmengligs call for a vote in which all members can write one name, and the turn-out of the vote is more than a certain number, then whoever's name gets the most votes is ostracized.

We could call it the Themistoclause.

Naturally Devin gets full veto power. Also there should probably be some system to prevent people from signing up with multiple accounts and voting mupltile times. We can figure something out....

Perhaps there could be a way to link a user's picture from the gallery to his/her profile? It wouldn't have to necessarily be a picture of them, it could be a piece of their artwork, etc. The downside is I'm not sure if there is a way to do this through scripting? The plus side would be that I wouldn't have to comb through the gallery to see how cute people are.

we decided not to link the galleries with the forums here for lots of reasons. mostly because the coding would suck, people would want to keep swapping thier pics, and it would make it harder for the new people, the ones that still have to prove that they are the one in the picture, to get thier pics on. oodles of code and confusion.

karmascores are about the same as the vote to ostracize, only the people doing the voting are all people we can trust not to throw drama into the mix. and people do get banned when they do something particularly bad or wrong. and they do also get grounded. we dont just use shunning.

we did change the titles in the forums once and people spazzed and begged for them to go back to this system. it was wild. we didnt know anyone even cared. I think the forum king might remember that, if you want to ask Ironboots about it sometime.

the editors do run a writing workshop. each article is read by the editors (as much as they can stand at least) and notes, hints, help, and pointers are sent back to the writer with offers (depending on my mood) for further help. Anya you arent still getting massive feedback on everything you send in because i know you have it already.

*nods* I'm aware of where I stand. I was just speaking for the ones that have more trouble with their articles. I just know the stress you Editors go through with certain articles and maybe it'd help relieve some of that stress. However, Feral clarified that it's already been an implemented idea so I step back and apologise for not realizing it.

personally i would like to see an easier system for search the article database. if there could be a subject word that one could search for it would be better than going through every article in the past however many years because one cannot remember the date, the title, or the author...

I also really liked it when no matter what yoo were doing on the site the shoutbox, eyecandy, who's online list, etc. was always there. It was alot more convenient than having to go to one paticular area of the site to get to another.

I'll admit it was getting a bit cluttered when the random book box and the like started showing up but isn't that why there are those little "minimize" buttons on each of the boxes?

Anyway I don't know Jack for shit about coding but I'm assuming an endevour like that would be UBER pain in the ass. However, this site seems to be reborn every so often and I would throw this into the suggestion bin for the next time the site gets a makeover.

GM - see the little "Search" link in the second row of links at the top of each page? There's also a box next to the "Archives" link that you can type word in and press the little search icon next to it.

In hindsight I'm gonna' have to retract the majority of my initial suggestion, it does sem to be trouble-bait in the long run. Other than that though...I'm dry, when I think of something cool that makes sense I'll post it, until then I'm just gonna have fun clicking shit...wheee!

Maybe it has something to do with her horrible L337 or her grammar and punctuation issues.

I'm going to back up MRD on this one. People aren't going to respond to a topic that is more of a "look at me and how cool I think I am" than something of genuine interest that would spark a real conversation. Especially when you have to decipher the spelling and grammar. Christ, I could have let my baby girl tapdance on the key board agin and had something with more redeeming value than "where i work!"
