Suggest some improvements!

OK, so we now have avatars, SRD links and WotC's upcoming schedule all done. Getting there.

I didn't think the logo thing really got out of hand in any way, but YMMV. Everyone seemed to be trying to pre-empt any "this is not fair" responses, and no one responded that way.

Anyway, here are a couple ideas stolen from a comic board I used to frequent. One is a "question of the week" for the General RPG board, where questions are submitted by posters (to the mods) for open discussion. This may seem superfluous, but I think it stimulates posters to think about interesting discussion topics, and may add a bit more emphasis to those topics.

The other thing that was done on that board was (and I don't know how you'd feel about this, given the logo debate) a banner of the week. We have a lot of graphics-savvy posters here, who would probably submit some interesting EN World banners. Of course, which ones actually get chosen are up to the mods. You might do this on just one forum, if not all of them.

There's already alot of great features online, it'd be hard to improve on it...

Perhaps a release schedule could be tied into a version of the PostCalendar block for the main page...

tleilaxu points up at his unanswered questions....

2 dumb questions
1. what is SRD?
2. what constitutes a msg board "roundup"?

1. Well, you now know where to find the SRD, so why don't you take a look?

2. It's where I post a news item pointing out some interesting threads on the messageboards.

How about hide the Moderators Only forum so no one can even see it existis hehe. Keep seeing people want to look in it. If your version of this BB is the same as the free one in that regard it is not hard to hide a forum from all that can't post in it.

Yes, I chose the character based on the meaning. For anyone interested, it means "compassion." The world could certainly use more of it. I will probably change it in a few weeks, but may stick with the Chinese character theme.

But I don't recognize your avatar, tleilaxu (my Chinese is extremely limited). What does it mean?

 

[tleilaxu]

um, i've changed it a couple of times. right now it is the simplified version of "ma" or horse, but I am looking for a page that has traditional character animations as we speak...
