Forum Rules

Hamma · 2011-07-14, 08:01 PM

This forum was created as an idea dump for the community! All content in this forum should be limited to Ideas ONLY. No other discussion threads will be allowed, if created they will be moved elsewhere and the offending member warned.

Ideas should be well thought out! Please do not post threads with one line descriptions. At least several paragraphs with a detailed description of the system will help everyone, including developers reading this forum!

Below are the forum rules, which are subject to change.

If the idea relates to an announced game system please select the "Improvement" prefix and state how you believe it could be improved.
If the idea is totally new, please be very descriptive of your idea and include any screenshots or examples of existing systems (in other games for example). Also please use the appropriate thread prefix.
If this idea has been discussed outside of this forum please post a link.
Use an appropriate Title Prefix! If you would like more please suggest it in the Site Feedback Forum.
Please one idea per thread.

Keep debate to a minimum and use the ratings system to rate threads you believe are a good idea.

This forum is currently very fluid and will most certainly change with feedback!

Not a good idea at all. In fact, if this were implemented, I have no doubt that it will ruin PS2.

Always remember, if you don't succeed, it's your own damn vault.

So as this forum becomes more popular I notice the sorting becomes... a hinderance to new ideas. Any suggestions? Change the default sorting?

basti · 2011-07-19, 10:26 PM

No. Remove the crap actually. Simply delete all threads that dont comply with the rules. People just posting "yea, got a idea: blabla" without going into detail and without even really thinking about the downsides of their idea should just have theirs threads send to hell.

Right now, thats quite a few.

Hamma · 2011-07-19, 10:35 PM

Wait what? I haven't seen any that have struck me as that..

Even still. At some point more ideas that meet your criteria will be on the second page.

basti · 2011-07-20, 09:39 AM

Can you put threads that not yet got a vote first, but keep the shorting "more stars, higher in the list" ?
That whould help.

Lartnev · 2011-07-20, 01:01 PM

While I like the idea of better ideas being at the top, when I visit forums I like to read the new stuff. Would it be possible to sticky a post which is a list of any idea that made it to 4 or 5 stars?

Hamma · 2011-07-20, 01:17 PM

Not automatically no, I can change the default sort to newest first though.

Hamma · 2011-08-03, 11:03 AM

I've changed the default sort on this forum from Rating based to thread update based. Let me know what you guys think..

Be advised that users can change their own thread sorting, at the bottom of the forum under "Display Options" you can change "Last Post Time" to "Thread Rating"

Awesome, seems like the best solution
