1. Member Post Count does seem to go up in "Introductions" ; when i believe its not suppose to. Same goes with credits 2. As GameRenders has grown, so has certain aspects of it, like how much stuff is worth, etc. As Llam has already done, the "click-to-pay" service was reduced from 5 credits, to 2. I think some more store items/prices changes are in order to help keep up w/ members credits, and give us more incentive to particpate in GameRenders. (well holy ----, just realized you can buy the ibstore mod in the store now, thats a new feature, nice thinkin' Llam) Want to include the reputation system for both v1.3, and 2.0x ; and Arcade for both versions, and i'll also be glad to include a 120 game pack to put in the store(i'll be sending that to you soon to add to the Premium Arcade, Llam) Maybe change the variables of the random money from 0 to 1,000 ; and up the price to 500, or make it a seperate item- for the richer or more dangerous ones. Under "Other Member Items"- Make it possible to buy an Premium Member account? The price is maybe 3,000 credits. Seems kind of low, but you can buy them for around 1,000 in the Marketplace most of the time, so 3,000 seems fair. Thats up to you Llam. Change the price of the forum advertising item from 400 to at least 800. Isn't this one of the benefits of being a Premium Member? Don't let regular members get it for so cheap lol I'm willing to help with the "Free Invision forum Mod installation"; i'll PM you w/ information on that though Llam. Restock the "Mystery Box" please ^_^ w/ update with a few more ideas in BOLD 3. Arcade tournaments needs to be looked at alittle more. I joined one when i first joined GR, and its still going. I think its possible for mods to govern this, i'll have to check the settings on a test forum. 4. Render staff: No, not MOD staff, render staff. Members put into access in only those forums, no others. They'd have access to both forums, so should be able to move topics from either forum. You could have some incentive, maybe 2 mods max. This gives a chance for mods to focus on other activities, for most of the mods: a chance to learn new programs, and focus on their shops. *wiinks at G70* 5. With the new banner contest, several other ideas come in mind. Seems like GameRenders hasn't had a new splash in awhile, and maybe its time for a new contest after the current one is over 6. Almost 25,000 members; I think a "prune" of member names needs to be done. Deleting members w/ a certain amount of post. This would get rid of all those members w/ "0" post, and free up tons of name. Yes, it'd probally cut GR's members in half, but it'd free up space, and help future members, by easily choosing a name. I wish Yahoo and MSN did this w/ their emails=P 7. Can that be changed to affect all "Battles"? I challenged someone to an Invision Power Board challenge, and someone else challenged me. We could also challenge people to Yahoo/ Pool / Halo / etc challenges. Maybe make this a sub-category, to keep them seperate from graphic challenges. 8. Add the mod that sends messages to new members, this should limit spam somewhat; in the message you can provide links to the "GR Starter Kit" and "Introductions." You could also provide links to the rules, and welcome members to GR! This should make GR seem more friendly, and help keep even more members! Nevermind...The mod is for v2.0x, i'm going to try to port it back to version v1.3x for GR's use. 9. How many times have some of the members here at GR signed up for a site, and then leave because it was a bit slow at the time, or going through problems? I wonder how many members registered for GameRenders when it first opened, and haven't checked it back again? Maybe sending a MASS email to all registered GR members, and remind them they are still joined here, and all the new features, and inviting them to become a Premium Member, etc :wub: Never know. I've got a few more left, want to see how these ideas go down first. BFTP
:blink: thats the longest post ive ever seen, that is made by soemone alone. lol but i agree on most points though. and im definetly in on #8.... maybe provide the link to the credits system to...
Some of them are very good idea's. You did some thinking there m8! I just gotta disagree on 1 poit though: selling prems for credits will make gamerenders go down. Even if it ws for 3000 credits, people will save up there credits and won't buy them anymore. Which makes gamerenders go bankrupt. The other idea's are very good though ^_^
I also suggest that we get D2-Downloads System. It will keep the renders more organized and easier to find for downloads. Afterall this community is about renders so why not making it more organized?
yea but somebody has to buy the membership. even if somebody buys it for creds the other person is still paying
Yea i relly lie the idea on buying a premuim membership, casue i dont ahve a paypal and im too young to get it, i would definienty try adn get it
It costs Llam nothing to upgrade a member to Premium. If he were to add this item in the shop, he would probally get more off google ads for that member in the time it takes to get 3000 credits. Since they would be viewing the site everyday, posting, staying active and most likely doing stuff for others. Think about it. BFTP
