Ideas and Suggestions

[5N1P3R]

This forum is new. Plz post any ideas or suggestions you may have for the forum here.

Leopard Edit: Moved to Feedbacks. Pinned.

[Kazuki]

You could add a section where Mod staff could post in their particulars. That way, we can know them better.

you could also make a pinned topic(important topic) in every part of the forum to state the rules of the forum, so that people know what they are posting.

[Leopard]

Preferably add a section that people can apply for moderator positions.

Btw, moderators have the power to close all threads in the forum, warn and ban members, and delete posts. I think you should find a way to add that.

Add a News section, so that people can be updated on the happenings around the world.

Edit: Pinned topics are topics that will always stay in the first page no matter how inactive it is. Normally these pinned topics are important ones, such as rules.

About the arcade...

*Members must post a link to the post of the offender or a screenshot of the chatroom if it is in the chatroom

I hope you like my Forums-in-a-nutshell compilation. If anyone would wish to update/include things in it, please post it in here.

Oh yeah, I have noticed some people like "18_m_uk_bi" or "15_f_aus_cam_les". These people have signed up for Gr84uMs only to use their chat feature.

I suggest you remove accounts who have never posted before by 1 week. This so that we can encourage members to actually post in this forum.

[Kazuki]

Pardon my double post, but I must highlight some things.

We should create a place where we can dump some threads that we do not need.

Only Staff can access it.

[Leopard]

Good idea, but all of the headings were taken from DotaPortal.

I suggest changing some of the headings, but the idea is great.

[Kazuki]

Not all of them were. You can help me suggest some new headings, if you like.

Its a great idea. Think i will do it, with some changes.

and about Arcade games, i have added some cool games.

thx Kazuki for the suggestions!

[Kazuki]

Haha.. no problem.

Oh yeah, Could you make some changes now to reorganise the site?

For the Anime Section:

Anime
--Anime Discussion
----Movies and Videos of anime
----OVAs
----Anime OSTs
--Anime Series/Movies download
----Anime Request

You can put Anime request as a subtopic of Anime Series/Movies download. That way, it will be much cleaner.

Oh yeah, Anime Art is graphic Making, so you can put it into somewhere else(Like in where I suggested on top)

[Leopard]

SN][PER, you need to elaborate what is Anime Request in the forums. Is it a request for downloads, or a request for people to discuss on a certain anime?

FYI, the only problems I have are:
-Not able to pin threads.
-How do you move and merge threads? (Mods need this, so that they can move threads that are posted in the wrong forums, to the appropriate forums)
-Edit and delete posts. (Mods need this command, so they can keep the forums clean of offensive posts)
-Merge posts. (When a member double posts, mods can merge them)

Just for you people to take note, GetAIO is a new forum. Having too much sub-forums is great, but we need to focus on getting more people first.

Edit: Can the title for Staff Area be changed to Mod Conference? And include a sub-forum called Staff Profiles.

Edit 2: Can the links be made in a way that when the cursor is put over them the color will change, instead of putting zig-zagging lines?
