I'm bursting with ideas, and I seriously have to put them somewhere before they end up suffocating me.
Edit: One thing you should know about my motivation: I don't have any when I've just eaten five whole turduckens in one sitting.
I'll come back to this later, after I don't feel so much like killing myself to relieve the pain of a pre-apocalyptic stomachache.
A list of places where we've advertised.
What I've noticed is that we have a respectable amount of members, but most of them are inactive, and it is left to those of the community who are actually dedicated to the site to keep it up and running.
A guided registration.
Looking around, it's easy to see several areas of the forum that welcome new members into the community - but it could be far easier on people who have just registered to prepare an automatic PM to each new member that links them to several different areas of the site that could help them while they're first starting out, such as the Introductions Board (I'll get to this later), the Rules, and the board for Character Applications. It's awfully confusing when you're new and there's no one around to help you figure out what you're supposed to be doing, so why not simplify things with a PM that's sent automatically to each new member?
A back to the top/ back to the bottom button.
Yes, this is for lazy people, but half of us are lazy. It would be nice, but it's not a main suggestion so much as an afterthought.
Color-coded names for staff.
I know that this must sound awfully selfish, but it's honestly very hard to tell who's who around here.
