Charas 3.0

[Rowan]

Heres an idea:

If Charas 3.0 does go through, I think we should disable post count and use some sort of ranking system like ZKX and others had said. Respect shouldn't come from the number of posts that member has made.

Although I'm not on so often, I support this idea too... however, I wouldn't be able to donate... or well, I'll see if it gets done...

I'd like more All of All Topic, since it's the section I usually go. There haven't been a lot recently... I'd also like to see games made by people, could also maybe make one... if I could get more inspiration...

A new banner would be nice too, but I guess you already had that in mind.

Edit : Uhm, it isn't related to it, but... could someone tell me why I went from 800+ posts to 546? Didn't even noticed until then...

I agree.

And pish, I can't be bothered to read the rest. >_>

I dunno, when I go to a new forum I find that post counts help me make sense of the madness. Clearly we don't want to be elitist, but it's easier for newbs to pick out the regulars if the post counts are shown.

Don't ask me why, but I'm lost otherwise, particularly in big forums.

An interesting proposal, no doubt. I definitely would be willing to donate a few bucks to switch servers.

So, would we use the same generator/forum code we have now, then add on a bunch of stuff? Or would we start from scratch?

EDIT: Also, we need a merchandise store. I would SO buy a shirt that said "Sexy boot" or "i can shoot missiles lol".

Merchandise store yes, but I dont think we should make members pay to become members.

[Osmose]

Members paying to join is ridiculous. Members donating, however, is awesome.

Running list of proposed additions:
-Spoiler Tags
-Profile Option (For Hire) and page that displays all users for hire.
-Merchandise
-Bigger Avatars
-Disable post counts
-New Banner
-Veteran user level awarded to good members - benefits
-Fool user level given to bad members - limits

I don't particularly remember anything that people were against, but please remind me if there is. After a while I'll ask for a quick vote on what should and shouldn't be added. It won't be a OMG 1 VOTE WIN vote, just a "If most people don't like this we'll take it away. If it's evenly mixed, we'll... work it out. Or something." vote.

That forum that I mentioned earlier (that I seem to keep on referring to) disabled post counts there.  I don't really like what it ends up doing.  Sure, it somewhat decreases spam, but it gets rid of something that people strive to obtain a high degree of.  Plus, when someone is looking for who has been around for quite some time, a high number of posts is a sure sign of commitment (to some degree...).

I opt for keeping post count.

Also, you didn't seem to include the veteran and punishment member groups suggestion.

I think a good add-on is a "script" tag as well....and get this....
An XP section on the CR. Organization FTW.

Also, only ninnies pay to join forums.

Probably. Those corn fed Skatcheeanites...Like apes.
But they like to spend money on Tattoos.

[WarxePB]

Yeah, well Manitobans can kick all your asses!

So far, most of the ideas are pretty good. I don't really care for the disabling post count thing, because it defeats the purpose of posting - there has to be some incentive to keep posting.

[Ben]

Yeah. Disableing post counts is silly. I wouldn't support that one personally.

Also....Manitoba can only kick the *** of the 3 easternmost provinces.
And thats only because its actually possible to get a job there.

BC is cooler, but Alberta would win in an arm wrestling tournament.
SA can spit tobacco the farthest. ON pretty much just drinks lattes and sucks...In QU, its like, Cheese Curds and gravy.

[Fortet]

Yes . . .
Granted I'm poor, so no donations from me. Sorry
I'll do whatever I can to help, though.

[Daetyrnis]

But Ontario has both the largest Canadian city and Ottawa!

Wait, Ottawa is home to politicians, so I'm only hurting out cause... >_>

What about a ranking system in the Complete Resources and to search for the must viewed, highest ranked, etc, Resource
