Hello, whoever needs to read this needs to read it sternly because you might not get what I'm saying and put REAL SENSE INTO IT. Some of these features come from other sites that might be better than this one and you really need to try to look at those sites TOO. Anyways, enough warnings let's get this suggestion started. *cough*

As you can see, I'm going to go to the dead center here so let's do this.

..Tell me your thoughts..

Hey there, it's always good to hear from the community in terms of interests and ideas.

This thread is where you may want to take a look at, prior to suggesting things as polls have been mentioned already. And maybe posting the idea there, would get more people talking. We used to have polls and I'm sure they will be taken into consideration but compared to PM tweaking and notifications (etc), polls probably won't be too high on the priority list but it is something Mahz is aware of.

In terms of "underlining" things in a discussion...I'm a little confused since we already have the BBCode that let's us use color, bolding, underlining, etc to make our points more noticeable for readers. If you're looking for a real time chat like Google + Mahz is working on the possibility of certain threads opting to have an embedded chat for quicker OOC chatter. I'm not sure if it's been scrapped but in the meantime, we do have the new chat linked at the top of the site for people to come and socialize. If you're aiming for a close knit way for your RP partners to talk, going offline to skype may be the best way but if everyone ie online there, I don't see why using the Guild would be any worse/slower. Maybe I'm not understanding what you want?

Now in terms of blogs, that could be useful but this isn't really a Myspace or Livejournal site, it's for writing WITH other people. I'd say if the site could handle the addition of blogs though, why not? People don't have to use them and maybe those who do, could find a way to use them in a RP to develop their characters further.

And finally memes. I don't think they're needed here (in a roleplaying sense), nor do I think this site would benefit from some kind of meme making tool. That is kind of Spam's job and they've been capable of handling their own antics without help from the Guild. And there are probably other sites where you can make your own meme and just share it here as needed.

So overall, polls are already noted, blogs could be useful but I'm unclear of the other issues you brought up. If you do have any other ideas though, you should feel free to share them but to just be careful about getting your point across, sometimes using CAPS or slang can be a little distracting but maybe that's me. You noted people to read the post carefully but then the tone and topics kept changing which threw me off. And your post in the News thread mentioned you not wanting to leave, came off a little weird since I wouldn't want to think polls would be a deal breaker for a site such as this. Also you don't need to bump your thread as ones in this section don't tend to get buried. Anyway, I hope you can still have fun around here, even with its flaws, this site has made some awesome improvements and continues to do so. ^_^

Polls have been up in the air for awhile and may be added in an update later on.

How old are you?
