Agree'd with the gray.

And maybe it should be a tad smaller. Maybe get rid of the box right above it that says "main".

I like Dudeman's ideas. The premise is very nice, though. As was said, it's a start.

The box resets back to letting you choose again on every page but we never really used ratings why make the box.

The new rating feature was a suggestion PM'd to me and I liked it so here it is. I changed the color as per your guy's suggestions. Give it a try if you don't like it tell me later.

I like the color change, makes it much less distracting.

Agree'd'd.



I'd also like to continue begging Jewloo for a red name. Please?

The new idea is very good, does this mean a thread with so many Terrible ratings will be canned?
Like a blam feature?
Also, will the star system be removed?

It should. No point of there being two of the same thing.

Also this is a question, is the portal ever going to get a new skin? Right now, it's is ridiculously monotone and the buttons are way plain. Something more bright and interactive would do the portal great.

i have an idea for the infractions system.

every infraction adds, say, 20 seconds to the time you need to wait between posts? i dont know if this is possible with vB, but i know its possible with punBB. i think this would be a very effective way of making people think twice about their posts, no?

That really does sound like a great idea. I'm thinking more like a minute between posts though.

This is definitely a good idea. People would certainly think a bit more before they post. But would this expire just like infractions do? Or would there be a different timeline?

My suggestion: Don't let people with 11 infractions have any amount of power in the forum.




Just a thought.
