PoLiX Posted June 3, 2010 Report Posted June 3, 2010 So what are some more forums you guys would like to see here for other discussion topics? Currently the Arcade scripts are being upgraded/updated for IPB 3.1 and there has been talks of a RPG being created again. Also going to install the Gallery script again. Should be entertaining and will be focused SS wide. Suggest away. You use these forums, what would you like to see?
Audry Posted June 3, 2010 Report Posted June 3, 2010 Make it all purple and pink with flowers all over the place...
»Purge Posted June 3, 2010 Report Posted June 3, 2010 Emoticons, too. I miss the sliding login screen as well.
L.C. Posted June 3, 2010 Report Posted June 3, 2010 Make it all purple and pink with flowers all over the place... This can be done. Just need to port this Wordpress plugin over to make it possible: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cornify/
PoLiX Posted June 4, 2010 Author Report Posted June 4, 2010 more skinsYeah, once skins stabalize again, will install them. They just updated IPB with a new "skin upgrade" feature that skinners will be able to take advantage of from here on out. Emoticons, too. I miss the sliding login screen as well. Yeah, I gotta re-install those. On my list. So any suggestions for anything actually NEW? Kinda what I was going for here.
Emit Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 Your number 1 priority is creating a bigger user base. and wtf is with 60s post filters this isn't 02.
Chambahs Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 I never noticed that we could share this topic via twitter/facebook/everything else down there. Is that new or am i stupid? And whats Promote to Article do?
»Purge Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 It's new. Also, can you change the webpage icon to the Continuum logo and a "Recently added topics" section like in the IPS forum? And perhaps a feature for logging in with at least our Facebook account if linking our forum account with our Facebook account is possible? I'm just getting scanty ideas from the IPS forum, really.
»Xog Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 I really like the new layout for the iphone since i do most of my ssgn forum browsing on it. But the text i type is rather small, perhaps 1 size up would be perfect. This is the smallest ive ever seen clear text. Lol

PoLiX Posted June 6, 2010 Author Report Posted June 6, 2010 Your number 1 priority is creating a bigger user base. and wtf is with 60s post filters this isn't 02. Dropped to 10s. Forget why it was that high. Probably had to do with JDS or Rootbear. I never noticed that we could share this topic via twitter/facebook/everything else down there. Is that new or am i stupid? And whats Promote to Article do?New. Promote to article (once the news is up and running, and if I decide to use it) allows you to promote a post/topic to the frontpage news as a news article. It's new. Also, can you change the webpage icon to the Continuum logo and a "Recently added topics" section like in the IPS forum? And perhaps a feature for logging in with at least our Facebook account if linking our forum account with our Facebook account is possible? I'm just getting scanty ideas from the IPS forum, really. will do on the fav icon. Facebook login had some issues with a few browsers last time, but might be worth a try again. Also have twitter connect. World Sports.Done along with Games. I'll fix the avatars and emoticons sometime tonight or this week. Just busy with wedding stuff. I'm also going to create a version of the navbar just for SSGN.net sites with quick menu links to stuff around the website. Will make it nice to quickly browse around.
»Purge Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 Thought this should be pinned. Is it also possible to add a merit system? For example, users thanking other users for helpful posts and stuff. It would probably be less abused if you were to only allow the merit system in the Technical Support and Development forums. Perhaps also displaying a list of "Most Helpful Posters" at the right would promote more help to go around. And perhaps making the forums banner the same as the SSGN banner -- except with an added "Forums" text somewhere -- would make more people realize there's another site. Then the "Home" tab would make more sense to click on.
Sketter Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 How about an "I agree with this post" for individual posts?
»Purge Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 How about an "I agree with this post" for individual posts?That's similar to my suggested merit system, but I'd think "I agree" would be too general and would only apply to certain topics.

I suggest to keep things simple. Going beyond simplicity might make it go unnoticed.
»Purge Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 Oh, it won't go unnoticed. Or, as a nice compromise, the "helpful post" feature can be set to only work in Technical Support and Development forums while the "I agree" can be used in all other forums. But that's assuming this type of system will even work in IPB...
PoLiX Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Posted June 23, 2010 There is the old thank you button system, but dunno if it moved from 2.3 to 3.1
Sketter Posted June 24, 2010 Report Posted June 24, 2010 I like your compromise purge. Make it happen:p
PoLiX Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Posted June 27, 2010 Been busy this weekend. Doing Relay for Life, and working on stuff around the house. I should be back and working on stuff shortly. Just been a lot of projects I have put off saving for the wedding I am now working on. Please let your friends, squadmates, etc. know what is going on around SSGN, as the more who visit, the more push it gives me to try and find time. Also, if you'd like to donate to the cause: http://main.acsevents.org/goto/scottbinford
op2rules Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 I think an IRC Network dedicated to SSGN would only make sense. Give it channels like #lobby, #trenchwars, #request, etc. Then install things like IBIRC/WebIRC etc on the forums. I really think this would boost the community. A lot.
