Website Suggestions  "Contribute your ideas!"

I was thinking... Aren't there too many administrators out there? I mean the more administrator users you have the less forum is secured. And it is not that big of a forum to have that many. Or some administators have restricted admin rights appliable only to some sections of the forum/site?

And I concur about avatars and NSFW pics.

We don't really have too many, admins here are never all online at the same time.


What about splitting the post thread:

The Wicked Post Thread

And

The Virtuous Post Thread

That could work, but how would people know the difference?

I want photoshop thread or something. I liked that one on the 3dr forums.

Of course, I'm not doing any of this stuff. I'm just a watcher.

Is it possible to embed YouTube movies in forum posts here? If not, can that feature be added?

Wouldn't that just destroy any load speeds? I am not saying I don't think it is cool, just that it would kill bandwidth wouldn't it?

Also, that would also be an html string...which would probably open up to way too many attacks.

Perhaps it's an idea to start creating other forums like on the 3DR forums? Like the "Other Apogee/3d Realms Games" forum and such?
We don't know if the 3DR forums will be like it was when they move it so if needed people can come to this place....

Well Duke4.net is mainly about Duke, and any other games (also done by 3DR/apogee, that includes Shadow Warrior and ROTT etc) basicly belong in th "other gaming discussions" board... Of course, if by popular demand people absolutely want a complete forum (or subforum) for other Apogee/3D Realms games, we might as well create that...

But meanwhile, the regular gaming discussion boards should be used...

If you're on a 56k then yeah, I guess it would. But that's more of a personal problem though.

What's with the crap to gold scale on the threads now? I noticed that threads asking for help are getting marked as "crap". Nice way to welcome people.

I have two problems with that:

1) It gives a very prominent position to the female character for no particular reason. She has never appeared in a game and she doesn't look all that interesting.

2) It shows the 3DR staff picture. It's just a bunch of ordinary looking people and looks kind of shitty to be in a header. Plus, most of us don't know those people and don't care. So they worked at 3DR, so what? Are we supposed to be mourning the loss of their jobs? Screw that, I lost my job too and I actually produced what I was supposed to. I don't want to see them every time I come to this site like they are supposed to be heros (not that that would make the picture look any better).

I would be for Duke smashing Trooper's head against the wall, alternatively blowing it's head with a gun.

The female is a stripper. Where Duke goes, females follow. ( but yeah, i just wanted some of the new stuff in there :P )
The added photo of 3DR crew would be temporary.

"Deeper"thought, i don't know you, and i don't care for your job loss. http://forums.duke4....tyle_emoticons/default/laugh.gif Screw you. Hehe. But you make some valid points anyway.

Took 'em from SA because the previous rating stars looked absolutely HORRIBLE with the dark theme. I agree that it's not too helpful to have a bunch of threads marked as "crap", but the ratings will average out when more people rate them. Ideally after a while the only threads marked as crap will be legitimately bad threads. :P

If anyone knows of any better rating images, I'm open to suggestions!

I love the header Redsplat, except that the crew photo seems a little out of place... It shows our respect to the team, but i dunno... But i guess it's cool since it's temporary...
Would it fit to throw an enmy in there too ..? the Octabrain Render looks gorgeous, i'd root for that one if you think it might fit...

Other than that, Duke adn the Chick is just perfect...

But putting her head in the banner like that next to Duke makes her look like a VIP. If you want new stuff, I think some new enemy renders would be way cooler.

I guess it might discourage people from starting stupid threads. These things always end up being abused to some extent, though.

Oh man, I really hate to hear that DT. :P Good hunting my friend.

I like the existing header as-is. It's minimalistic and to the point.

Is there a possibility for a threads with less than 5 votes to be unrated? Some threads are "crap" only because one member have voted.

That's good thinking and would stop some of the abuse.
