Alrighteo, just taking in some feedback and suggestions.

Someone mentioned a poll, survey section. Sorry can't remember who.

Most probably add a support or faq section haha erhum. Smile

So yeah, feel free to ramble on about how you want it to be.

Only exception is, the flower is to stay.

I'll take action when that horrible uni thing is over. Smile

how about a section where people can post up requests for pieces they'd like to see performed?

Maybe bb, but I could come up with an awfully long list of pieces. Trouble is, I'm sure many would be unsuitable for various reason, since we don't know what they're looking for exactly. Maybe we can just suggest the game/series/movie, and let the experts decide, though that's not very specific.

yeah true... we could always have a poll once in a while.... when the eminence staff are picking the pieces for the next concert

Array of songs and narrow it down... hmm...
but that would mean no more surprises yeh? Smile

Oh one more thing about the forum. I don't think theres much of a ranking system ^^;
So we can all come up with something that everyone likes Smile

Otherwise. Stay Newbie forever. Twisted Evil

lol, we can have custom titles?

or titles triggered by post sizes?

if its the latter, i sense a trigger happy is on its way soon
@_@;;

With the advent of post EGX/ANIF madness I think more sections should be created. The board needs to spread out to accomodate this stuff. I say create an ANIF discussion section and an EGX one. Better yet, (not sure about lame BB) have a category called 'events' and put EGX, ANIF, Piano Stories and Destiny under it.

Branch out whoo!

An "Events" Discussion forum! Love that idea, we should definately have one of those. Oh wait there already is one Wink

ahaha

that reminds, if youve been around to asian forums, not sure if other countries have forums that implements this idea,
but what about an RPG style forum?

where you have health/MP/Gil bars,

^_-

Guest · Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2005 8:07 pm Post subject:

Oh there are heaps of forums like that. not just asians. Smile

Except maybe not for Eminence Wink

It really has nothing to do with RPGing hehe, or its not exactly a gaming forum neither. Nice idea anyway
I was actually thinking about it. :p

transistor · Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2005 10:56 pm Post subject:

or at least you have titles for those who have dedicated a lot of their time keeping up the live atmosphere of the forum Very Happy

probably let's say from newbie -> so so -> frequent -> addicted -> eminencer rank (yeah kinda lousy titles Razz

) depending on numbe of postings

CCJc · Hmmm... Joined: 20 Sep 2005 Posts: 992

im sure having rank titles wouldnt be the most important thing atm Razz

besides, they arent lousy titles transistor >=( -> =P

its like golden star stickers =D

Would like to add a sticky photo album of members, can be used to pose pics of events, trips or themselves.

you could probably enable a quick reply function to makeit easier to reply to threads. it's more comfortable than having to open up another page

Guest · Posted: Sat May 06, 2006 12:05 am Post subject:

arh.. yes.
I must've said I"d add a quick reply box since the beginning of this forum.

That shall be done in the holidays .... ^^;

How about an option that lets you link to an image file directly from your own hard drive instead of putting it up on a fileserver first; or in more common terms, upload an avatar from your machine.

I support custom titles for prolific users. Prolific users who actually contribute and do not spam the boards into oblivion that is Razz

I have noticed that there are a few generate Members in the Memberlist.
eg. https://www.eminenceonline.com/forums/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=255
These users have been generated by some forum searching program used by an 'inappropriate' site. Maybe we should delete them...?

CCJc · Hmmm... Joined: 20 Sep 2005 Posts: 992

In general, not any generic forum scripts are able to sensor out unethical phrases like that

You'd have to manually sif through every registrant...and most of the time, it'll go undetected
Unless we have people to point them out

Other than that, there's not much admins can do around here to stop that

mad1dude · Posted: Thu May 11, 2006 7:07 pm Post subject:

I guess I'll just have to sift thru the ones with zero posts for a start (helps to be able to query the backend database directly hehe)

Don't think we can stop them, but we can certainly remove them!

Pixelwarrior · Posted: Thu May 11, 2006 7:15 pm Post subject:

You just have to look through the ones with a website link actually. As the point of there generator is to link their own site. So if you come across one linked to an inappropriate site, delete that, but not necessarily the ones with broken links or no posts.
