   Put any and all suggestions in this thread.  While I am happy with this forum and the most recent influx of posts, that doesn't mean I am done working on it.   I would welcome any and all input on how to make this place even more betterer.

I'm with Majestic on his suggestion about the "cap" limitation. Is there a way to change that?

One other suggestion, is there a setting that will allow us to go back and modify old posts? After a day or so, you can't make changes to old posts.  Sad

Time limit removed. Don't know if this will impact old posts or just make them editable going forward though.

Lurkers, and Spammers, and Bots Quick suggestion. Require all new users to post, and basically provide a little info on themselves, withing 72 hrs of registering. I figure it would cut down on the number of bogus posters, and encourage others to actually post, instead of hiding on the sidelines.

I would like to see a section/folder made for and to discuss V&V products. Separate from the other four you already have.

The reason I feel we should have a separate section is to highlight the original game itself, not just leave it to mix in other posts (I would be happy to contrubute to it as much as possible).

That way we can spotlight Modules (with spoiler warnings) and other such things.
We could discuss the various V&V chara and leave the other sections for our ideas, characters and other such stuff.

It could also contain stuff from magazines and articles that could be summerized that are not readily avalibile (or that people are not aware of).

I would personally find this to be a very enjoyable place to post as I am strongly into the modules (as I did not make up a lot of Chara/NPCs, but modified a lot of the chara from the modules to fit my world).

We could also spotlight mods. Do polls. discuss the chara from within them.
As enjoyable as I find discussing everyone's own chara... I would moreso enjoy discussing the mods.

Any chance you could set that up?

How about V&V Products: SPOTLIGHT

Then you can put some blurb down at the bttm saying this is the place for discussing Villains and Vigilantes products, Modules, characters, articles or FGU.

V&V Products: SPOTLIGHT

This is the place for discussing Villains and Vigilantes products, Modules, characters, articles or FGU.


Does that work?

Me, I prefers the funnier names, that are from comics legend:

Fortress of Solitude!

Hall of Justice!

House of Ideas!

Any thoughts in keeping with that?

How about this, go with V&V Prime for the section name, and post a sticky called V&V Product Spotlight, as I've got a couple of ideas for it already.

Ok, done.  You guys cool with it?  I also moved around some threads to where I thought they should be.  Let me know if there is a problem.

Nothing has, or will ever be, deleted.*

It's great.

One thought.
Could "Hero Talk" still be the bottom "room?"
It's kind of the free-for-all area.

For no other reason than I didn't like the look  with them being seperated. I figured the welcome thread could stay as its easy for newbies to find.

John.

SEARCH ENGINE: Any chance you could increase the volume of results for the Display how many results? the Maximum allowed now is only: 15.
I don't know if this stacks and creates extra pages at the bttm and the display is only what is allowed on a page... but with this site becoming more active and the posts getting more extensive, I would hate to see something good become lost in the archives and unreachable.
If I am wrong and just going the way of the Dodo... I apologize. *Grin!*

Hey John.

You never said whether you could up the search number. It only gives you 15 of the most recent posts (Even if you designate search all)... and I would like to be able to scan the entire thing.
I would hate for an excellent post within the parameters of a specfic search (which could be helpful to GM/Players) to be lost because of the limitations of the search engine.

Can ya give me a heads up on this?

Could we also please 'up to 50' the "see the most recent posts to this forum" function?

I often log in just once a day and, happily, 25 ain't cutting it anymore. I'm afraid I'm missing stuff.

Thanks!

I figured out how to add some pics to the boards.  What do you think?  If you have better ones, size them down  to about 90x100 and send them to me.   

And if G7 still wants to make a welcome banner, or anyone does for that matter,  post them here and lets vote on the best.
