Suggestions for TS

[Sabla]

I started this just as a place for opinions and ideas of ways to update TS. Just throw out an idea you've thought of before and put it here for the admins. It's not a demand, just a way to mention a whim or idea that can be tossed around by others to gain or lose approval. No big deal. Even if it's not possible now, maybe it could be mentioned and stated why it can't happen. Just a place for opinions.


~What if the little wolf icons next to each of the"genres" (like "Out of the Woods" or "The River", etc...) were the avatar of the wolf that had last posted in that genre that's listed anyways off to the right? That would be a cool idea.

[Shunké]

While we really do appreciate you giving us ideas- sorry to say, that one is a bit impossible.

Proboards gives us two choices of "board icon" images for the site as a whole- an image indicating a "new" post (the brown wolf, in this case), and an image indicating an "old" post(the white wolf).
What you suggested would be neat though.

Thanks for the suggestion Sabla, and it does sound very cool actually, but sadly Shunké's right...it's not possible for us to do. Unless there's some freaky code out there that would allow it...I don't know it sadly!

We are at the moment trying to renovate the site, but it may take a while. Be patient though, it will happen. Suggestions are always good though ^^

How about removing those red Xs in the info center?
Here's the code:
main footer
<script>
/*Remove 'Visibility' images
Created By Wrighty
Do Not: Rip, Repost or Claim*/

var x = {

  i: function(){
     if(location.href.match(/action=home/) || !location.href.match(/action/)){
        this.b();
     }
  },

  b: function(){
     for(a = 0, d = document.getElementsByTagName('a'); a < d.length; a++){
        if(d[a].href.match(/action=changevisibility/) && d[a].firstChild.alt.match(/(hide|show)/i)){
           d[a].style.display = 'none';
        }
     }
  }

};
x.i();
</script>

I feel it makes sites look a little cleaner.


Also, I suggest this be moved to the suggestion board.

When I want to see if I have any PM's I have to go to a FAQ board or something for the option to come up. It would be easier if under the picture where the buttons are to go to home, help, and profile stuff. It would be nice if there was another button there that went to your messages.

[Dakota Spirit]

If you scroll to the bottom of the board, there is a link to your PMs in the 'Forum Statistics' section. It's right under the Newest Member listing.

After a bit of research I have found that The Sight is set in the time period roughly around the 1400s as this is when the Vlachs, Saxons, and Magyars had started fighting over Transylvania. Of course, it could be anywhere between the 1400s-15/1600s. But it might be good to place that tidbit in the jargon so that we have a rough estimate of what tools humans used back then - just in case someone decideds to have a human in their thread.

Thanks Dakota it was getting annoying having to do what I was doing before to get to it.

I have a nice request If anyone would be happy to listen/read:

Well I noticed there were 955 members....and I looked to see some of them not even activated, or they haven't been on here since 2005, and well its 2009 right now I think that [if you are able to] delete some members, because I see millions of abandoned accounts. Also I think It would just make the community of TS a little more closer and not so spread out.

Anyways, just a suggestion, though the problem would be finding time to go through all the members, or if you don't want to delete members because of site rankings, or other possibilities.

:]Danke,
Talar

Talar: I am always deleting members. I delete old members as their birthdates scroll by rather than looking through all 955 members and checking their info. Once December rolls around, you'll notice that the memberlist will likely be about 50+ members smaller.

Okay, Thanks for answering! well I geuss I could be a bit patient, lol I have only been on for a month or so, so thats swell!

[Zostar]

Got bored and went through to delete 100+ members. I had to cut myself off, it gets addicting after a while! Might fire up and do more later. It's sort've depressing how many active members we actually have :/

[▪ Talar ▪]

Woh! Nice job, and well I think we have a nice, good amounta of members actually. Better than none, and I bet things will start to pick up around her once august comes and people start to get bored with summer, they maybe will come on here for a little while to check up.

[Fellack]

Are you kidding me?
THIS SITE IS MY LIFE!!!!
No, seriously, I love wolves, I love Role Playing, and I love The Sight. The question is, why DON'T we have more active members?
Actually, I kinda would like it better with, say, 50 active members or 75. I like tight-knit things like this that I can relate to more. Then each individual person has more worth and you can feel like your more part of something undiscovered. Some things are better undiscovered. Like if The Sight suddenly became SUPER famous, then you wouldn't feel so special being a great-fan of it. 'Cause if everyone loves it, then it just isn't as special anymore.
