1) more capacity for PM's
2) fix the small reply box


keep the list going folks.

What's wrong with the small reply box?


Not sure if it would work but is some sort of rating system a possibility? When someone posts something that another thinks is good, they can give that person a point or something. Would kind of be fun to see who posts the best stuff.

4 minutes between searches, 40 seconds is way too short.:nohead:

The reply box i the size of a postage stamp in IE. but normal size in firefox, also, there is no enhanced editing in the small reply box.

we dont have a list, the question is basically, have you seen any options out there, (other forums), or can you think of any enhancments that you would like to see at the RX?

I use to mod on a vBulletin and some of things we had were

Vbookie-Basically you take real games and add them on to it and people can bet on them. But you need points to bet with.

Store- You can use your points to buy things like colored username and other things for fun

Reps - the number one things id love to see here are reps. basically below someones name in a thread is a rep button. when you click it then you can approve or disapprove someones message. when they get so many postives they get a green box below their name. Usually every so 100 postive you get a new box.

Welcome back up top - Basically this gives all the info and lets you navigate quicker. and looks like this

Agree, Id like see rep points. If you like someones posts you + their rep and vice versa and it accumulates right? I like that

yea basically. here is a picture of someone with alot of reps and how it appears

the rep button would be next to the report post icon down below your post count.

when you get a PM from someone it pops up on the middle of your screen asking you if you want to open it.

Rambo can you give negative points though? Thats the system I was thinking of not one that shows total points just the bar

Take it easy steak. You just learned to embed videos, you don't need more distractions.

the points are from posting and making threads. they arent related to the reps.

Just the green boxes are for the reps and yes you can disapprove and actually get red boxes but you would need alot of negative ones. and the more posts you have make the more the rep point is worth. Say you give me a rep it would be worth probably like 25 points but if someone knew repped me then only about 2 or 3.

That rep-button would never work here - too much interaction on things besides sports that would have points be awarded/deducted by posters

well thats the fun it it. you dont have to rep if you dont want. Plus you can set limits so that you cant keep repping the same person over and over.

MORE PM'S :drink:

I beleive that is an option that you simply have to turn on.

and who is this so called "managment" you speak of. Do we got some suit and tie higher ups that need a little persuasion

 

[FairWarning]

When I first joined the site, there used to be a feature that would notify you via email if a certain poster posted (like a subscription). I know that was gone after one of the upgrades.
