Hey all, I want to crowd source some ideas here.
Essentially, what I want are some ideas thrown out of what I could Add/Change/Fix/Remove that would make you want to visit the site even more, or post more, or be more active.
I know I'm potentially opening pandora's box here, but I'd rather do that and find out that some minor bug has been driving people up a wall. It's either that, or let these little annoyances drive away people. I think the internet has changed since this site was created, and people no longer visit forums as much as they once did. I'd like to see what we can do to change that. What can we do to make a forum not just a forum
in your eyes.
So, here's your chance, give me ideas. What would YOU all like to see this site have?
Off limits/already aware of/not going to happen:- Ads (they've steadily paid for a quarter of the yearly server costs so far)
Completed:- Garage Signature Cards. (Click here, then scroll down and click on "Get Garage Card" next to the signature area.) NOTE: If you are using a remote image for your hilite image on the garage, you will need to re-add the remote image as of today if you want a garage card. This is due to a settings change to make this new function possible.
- Tapatalk Android/iOS integration complete. Install Tapatalk and search for Club-S12.org. You can post images directly from your phone with this app!
- Garage bugs/glitches. These should be mostly fixed now. I spent about 8 solid hours modifying the underlying code until it all seemed to be much more smooth.
- "Show unread posts since your last visit" link at the bottom of the page
Under Consideration:- Require Location Before Posting in Marketplace Section.
- Better image posting/hosting solution.
- Some sort of best of/worst of or karma system on posts.
- We need more stickied topics in tech sections
