I think we need more color. Really, though, maybe a different color for those deemed "helpful", "ancient", etc.

EDIT:
Scratch that, it would probably be stupid. Mods=green, ntf=dark blue, and if there were more colors, they would seem less important.


You want colours, you go to DarkDemon.

More staff than members.

No thank you, Stickpage has been my internet home for years and it will stay my internet home for years. Screw DD, pivot sucks anyways.

There should be a board that only people who don't suck are allowed on.

Yeah that idea's been pitched a hundred times already but never taken into consideration. Exilement's asked Zulu before about section based bans and I'm sure he's been reminded of it again now that he can do something about the Debate Section.

Seconded, for about the fourth time. I've seconded that one several times I think.

A better and upgraded Search engine. Ours is just too vague.
It should have more advance settings.

It's a lot more advanced than some. What, specifically, would you want added to it? I can't think of anything it doesn't already have.

Well it allow us to look by username and keywords by thread or post. And pretty much other stuff but when, even, we are looking for something specific, some 10 pages appear. So in my opinion, it could have some kind of excluded words keybind. So we could search more accurately.
eg:
Tomato
150 results found
Exclude keywords on Post/Thread: Green, username, member.
...
Tomato
10 results found

?

I was thinking, and I honestly don't know if enough users are interested to be able to justify it, but we could have a web design section. It seems like a lot of members have websites/would like to, and a web design section could be a a fairly active one. I'm going to make a poll about it.

A priviledged members section would suck because of seggregation among members. Some seniors already think they're something special. I don't want to think what would happen after some dumb VIP section. All I'm sure is that there will be a lot of sucking up.

There should be a thing for some parts of the forum that states that if you don't have this certain amount of posts or haven't been here for a certain amount of days it won't let you post there.

How about a ``Post a tutorial,'' limit.

Only people who have 100+posts may post a tutorial or anywhere else

People who agree or have a better idea that has something to do with my idea. Quote this.

Quoted.

Newbies barely do tutorials, and you can always report a crappy tut. I think this would be just tedious.

Barely? A few have popped up. Hum, true. It would be tedious.

I don't really think there would be any suggestions. But, I think my idea would get the noobs to spam more. So yeah.

been told a lot in this thread but I want to say it again.

The Portal Sucks. I mean, beside the fact that only the noobs upload there, it's freaking annoying to have to go to the Flash Portal, look up the animation/game/art, and then still open the animation link before watching it.
Wouldn't it be easier to cut this section? I mean, remake the Portal!
Make the portal somekind of update/rules/information page. Put the latest games and featured movies on it.
It isn't necessary to delete the SPPortal, just blind cover it. Improve.

The portal's a mess.
