Title: What features would you like to see come to NSFCD?
Post by: Silverhawk79 on June 10, 2009, 06:50:36 PM
I've had a few discussions with staff members, and we've decided we need a new feature or two. We didn't have any ideas, so maybe you will. What would you like to see? We'd prefer it if the feature wasn't useless (like a shop), and actually served something of a purpose. Arcade may come back soon, as well.

How about choosing which rank you want? For example, suppose you had 2500 posts. Instead of just Excite Bike, you could choose between three ranks.


Oh, and more Mario ranks. It IS the SMB theme.

Even with the superior technology, that isn't plausible in that setup. In the future, user selected ranks will likely happen (it's largely inevitable), but once again, it wouldn't be limited to x amount of posts.

Good ideas peoples.

Now, what about you know.....games? Something fun while you can Browse, post, search etc etc on the forums.

Like Silver said, "Shop" is useless......
So you know, perhaps something around those lines....?

maybe?

That's like all I can think of.

Features wise, there isn't really much you can do or add that will constantly get used. Activity wise, I shall be hosting some contests. Hopefully they shall turn out well and possibly gain a few members in the process.

I kind'a like this. Atleast it's something.
NSFCD's most popular member ..ehm something something.

This is similar to that Brawl ID Tag Smashers here (including me) had.

You can click on that persons signature (1 click a day) and it would level up, Or in this case it can level down as well.

And maybe at the end of the week or month, that user would be the Member of the month or something........

Good going Linkfan!  =D

Well, arcade definitely needs a return. I like what LinkFan said, too.

Well no, I do have a couple ideas. D:
Some communities spring up because of a common goal, and spread from there.

This place was formed because people wanted a community, and didn't have any reason to come here.

Maybe if we start a community project... a game or something like that, we can get activity in all areas of the forum. (think starman.net, just not as obsessive)

I second the banning of Mario.

Also, If you want to voice chat with the members of the forum, just get Steam.  Most of us have that and you can just start a chat room there and then enable voice chat. We used to have a TeamSpeak server and that didn't last very long.

We still do, we just switch it on and off so it doesn't use up any extra resources. We turn it on whenever anybody actually wants to use it.

For the record, SMF includes a Karma system which we currently have disabled (Boyah and Outsider are forum examples that do use it). To the left of every post, under the users' avatar and stuff, it gives a number for the karma of the user. It includes links to increase or decrease the user's karma. Each user can modify others' karma as many times as they want, but limited by one karma action every x amount of time, with the time being configurable. If we implement any user ranking system, it will almost certainly be that.

Also, chatterbots are way too much effort to program and are only worth a couple minutes at most of entertainment. And they tend to work better with a large mass of users using it.

A random suggestion I just thought of is different smiley sets. Currently, we have all of our smileys all on the same set, and they don't necessarily have equivalents (meaning, we would probably have to make more smileys). If different sets are implmented, there would only be one text shortcut for each emotion, and different users will view it differently if they change the setting. Using an emote set of our own (D=) as the default would also further get us past trying to be like Nsider.
Some smileys could still be universal across all sets. And we could use the More Smileys popup feature of SMF for those universal emotes. Or we could, like Lithium forums, have the user-chosen smiley set typically show for most smileys made with shortcuts like :), but have other shortcuts to show the same emote regardless of the smiley set, like yellow-happy, robot-surprised, blue-angry, etc.
