I'm not too keen on forum software (aside from the easy end user stuff like Forumotion or other free hosting forums), neither do I know if this has been asked about (somewhere it has to have been), but is there any way to improve search results? As they are right now, doing a general search gives way too many results. Perhaps VMs could be restricted to a specified search, so that finding an already existing thread could be much easier? Again I'm sorry if this has been brought up or if it is impossible for you to change due to ZD's forum software.
I can try and improve it using what vBulletin has for built in stuff. However, the search function itself is buggy. I may consider writing a plugin or looking for one that improves it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I personally think that we should have an icon above avatars and below names like for mods and article writers, for artists and authors. But, they should be only recognized by a group, like a vote. People who are "famous" on ZD for there stories and artwork such as Ganondork and Linknerd09, should be recognized with the icon.
basically like an icon for people who are good at something, and a larg number of others think that they should be recognized for it.
I don't want to cram the area with tons and tons of icons. We could consider doing small 25x25px for random stuff. If you're talking about staff icons, I like to keep it to a minimal.
Okay, I was wondering if the ZD site staff were going to redo the market section of the forums.
I remeber when you could buy masks and other things for points last year and then the market went into a development type stage.
Now you can only get magic keys....
Is the site staff planning to update this section at all?
I would love to new items available for sale.
Just wondering if you had any plans for this.
Other than that, the site is fantastic!
Well done!
If it is being done, I'm not doing it. That is my guess why it was shut down. It may have been shut down due to server related issues or whatever. I'll have to ask around and see whats going on.
