    To: Administration

    There are some board features I think could help modernize and make more efficient RB.

    Like/dislike buttons are a popular request
    Group tagging - for mods of leagues to tag their rosters in one go.
    Chat - I know we've discussed this, but I see it working elsewhere. I also understand the bandwidth this uses, however live cyphers and battles will cut freeposting and will increase activity. Just toy with the idea.
    Increase our PM limits. 60? Is 75 pushing it?


    I'd submit anonymously to increase the chances of being heard unbiased, but I can't. So, consider this as a post by someone more respectable, please.

    Re: To: Administration

    Chat would be cool, however - for most Forum owners/admin team, their main concern is killing the activity in the forum. Chat's a good feature, tho. People would just sit in there all day and bullshit/loiter lol.

    Re: To: Administration

    I think the chat would be good if you could restrict it to just cypher areas like the 1-2 punch area and the cypher forums.. would homepage it or anything. I personally hate chats, been on a few sites that had them and I couldn't keep up with any of the conversations at all.

    Re: To: Administration

    as good as an idea as it is.. people like Alpha would use it to ask for votes since I can't picture even admins being able to track it. Plus you can just go TO facebook or AIM type app to use that. I like it, but it would likely be at the bottom of the list imo.

    By the way I'm trying to increase the limit to 200 for PM's, but I keep getting an error message on the iPad. When I get to the desktop I'll get it done. Also, looking into the like/dislike feature

    Re: To: Administration

    should be a simple tap on the admincp, 200 is a good number since they get filled quick, I have 500 (just checked) and it feels soooo goooooood!!

    @Amen - Idk if you've ever been to LB, I know PGraves has. Their chat used to be dope. Nothing but bars, kids are serious over there, and the live cyphers show true talent. Anyone can take 4 days to write ten lines, or take a few minutes to ponder a witty remark, but LB's chat was dope for that reason.
    @Wordz AhGod. - Shouldn't see TOO big a problem. There's, HONESTLY, only like 15-20 active ppl at any given time, and VB chats don't work well on phones, so there cuts that number further. And as for restricting it to a league such as 1-2 is counter productive, as I've only stated the pros of live battles and cyphers, never trolling, as the intent. And...sorry bouta the nudes, but my dick is valuable, wont you put my money where your mouth is? You don't even gotta do nothing, just hum me a tune.
    @SiK @SiK - As far as trollin and whatnot; this is dealt with simply. Nazi moderators. Ones who know the difference between casual conversation and clownin (which will be permitted) and TGF'n the joint up. And I've actually asked about the tech that FB uses for there live-post messenger. Apparently all it requires is a savvy fellow to do the coding. Dope idea, tho. Great minds, eh?

    I've actually talked to a couple of college kids I do business with about developing a RB exclusive app that gives you cell updates for subscribed threads or forums, allows you to customize which subforums you veiwing to ease navigation for members who use only certain parts of the site, customized skin or veiwing colors, fonts, sizes etc., and integrated battle polls and such. The students said app development is easy to do, but expensive to commission.

    But, there are plenty of options we have that will modernize and attract new members who don't currently use forums because the tech is outdated, or pace is too slow, or the navigation is too confusing or overwhelming to green boarders. Facebook has a plethora of highly active battling communities and I'm convinced its the speed of use (chat or messenger), ease of navigation (Facebook is extremely easy to use) and gratification of "notifications" (like/dislike button, which, scientifically is proven that the red indicator of a notification on FB activates the "reward center" of the brain).

    Yea, you're not reading anyway...
