Suggestions.

[hah]

God Dam you Saurav, complaining again!!!!!!!


The only reason the debates failed is because Garion posted one about Casual Sex, obviously looking for people to meet on the forum ;lll ol:

I Suggested a good few things to Competitions like using pictures in competitions and making a thread with T&C's and sticking it so they dont have to post them in every thread which puts of users, the manager said he would do this.. whether or not it happens is another thing.

I agree that the categories need to be merged, they should be done asap instead of waiting around.

AND INTRODUCE THE BADGE AWARD SYSTEM......IT WOULD GET PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THINGS BECAUSE FROM WHAT I HEARD THE 12DAYS OF XMAS WAS ONLY GETTING LIKE 3 PEOPLE A DAY ENTERING LOL

and enable youtube videos, i know this is a feature of vb4 so allowed us to use it.....no one clicks youtube links




ALSO MATT FOR THR PRIZE PEOPLE ARE SICK OF VIP LOL

OFFER THINGS LIKE BADGES IF YOU INTRODUCE THE SYSTEM OR ELSE 100REP POINTS OR 200 ETC.. LIKE OTHER FORUMS

soz this is in caps

Until the last day when someone ignored infrequent saying it should be in a stickied thread and posted a seperate thread too when we got nearly 30 entries (A)

I think that was actually a really good competition, but it should have been promoted more through the Notices at the top of the forum. This is because not everyone checks the Announcement forum.

Of course you never complain

It was good, I've also discussed with Matt (and garion briefly) ideas of doing short competitions for minor prizes like 10 rep points or whatever.

I am not sure if VIP's very own sub-forum exists anymore, but if one was given out as a prize every month (so 12 in a year - each there for 6 months), that would get alot of entries.

I think Management are very against those subforums, they won't even put the KKK back

If you don't ask for members opinions, I can see more complaints from members if they dislike the skins. Its always best to ask opinions on these things and implement the ones which you think are best.

I know but I was just saying that you can't always please everyone. But I agree about showing members some previews.

Hence the alternative option to use custom questions which is usually more effective.

Which is why I have no issue with it being removed.

Depends on how bad what the member said was. Maybe straight infraction and no warning, or even a caution.


I realise I have been complaining quite a lot about you and 2 super moderators, but at this time, when the forum doesnt get as many active discussions, I think its vital that all forum staff post regularly.
Its good to see you will try harder though, so thanks.

No worries.


You could possible give the winner a option of HC Sofa (or something similar) or VIP. I can see most people opting for VIP as you can only buy this during Christmas I think.




I am sure if there were to be 3 super mods, and one was to go on leave, 2 can easily handle it

Maybe, but no need to cut it down at the moment. We are just fine on how it is at the miment.

Always open for views on other prizes. Not many people are fond of the badge system but I don't have an issue with it being installed.

Yeah, I don't think these "sub-forums" will be coming back any time soon.

Was that because they slowed the forum down? But 6 there at any one time shouldn't be too bad should it on the new server?

[hah]

in the new skins put a space between each category, i know its little and might sound stupid but it makes you notice forums better cause they all seem grouped together here

edit; though loads asked for it in the "forum going down hill thread" once the badges looked nice........ or was i seeing things

A lot of very good suggestions there. I know a lot of those things are being worked on, and unfortunately they do take time. Miracles don't happen overnight.

I'm sure we will get a permanent general manager soon, and I'm sure if they are vocal, and active in feedback then things would pick up. The community needs a figure they can associate the forum with, both On Habbo and on the forum. Matt and Garion are brilliant in my opinion, and they both regularly post in this forum.

Regarding Moderators, I think cutting down Supermoderators is a bit of a bad idea to be honest. Their job is so important to the forum, and they can do so much more that moderatots cannot. They are not always online at the same time anyway, The Supermoderators really help us Normal ones out. They are the ones who can see the "Reported posts" and they are the ones that deal with profile/signature violations. They have a large workload, and they cope with it just fine. Four is a stable number, and as Matt said, their ability to moderate almost every forum is great for when Section moderators are Ill/away.

Things will be changing for the better, I'm sure new skins will get made, and the post approval system will get sorted. All these things will hopefully increase the amount of new members. We want those new members to come to a happy place, a community. I don't think you asking Matt to step down is the best outcome at all, especially in the public way which you did. It just causes more friction and things take even longer to sort.


The News department (Yes we are still around somewhere in the distance), will be doing some competitions of it's own soon, and we will be trying to get the community involved more. It's a team effort and I would love all departments to work together to get people involved more. The latest batch of News Applications was huge, and the majority of those that applied signed up to the forum specifically to apply. This shows that people are willing to join if they can be involved, and if there is something for them to achieve. I like the idea of awards/achievements.

It's great that you made this thread, and it's nice to see all the suggestions in one place, where they can be acted upon.
