Two ideas that most probably get rejected

[Steve-O]

hey I have two ideas XD here goes nothing

1. can we have the latest news story back on the welcome box thing you know the two boxes with figures like ur current post count... on the left one we use to have the last news post posted XD I use to love that to get news etc XD

2. can we have a facebook fan page.. I bet at least half of the members have a facebook account XD having a facebook page might advertise the forums and therefore lead to new members

Winning.

I'm not overly sure that Facebook does much in terms of advertising especially since you more or less have to specifically look for it to find it anyway. It might be worth a shot but I don't think it'd do much.

welll even if it don't it will be better than having the profile page we currently have XD

and I demand the news thing in the box back

also... you :fail: at the first quote tag

I hated seeing the news. It all seemed so pointless, some guy from SE gives an interview saying how great he is, how great SE are and how great FFXIII was. If it does return, I hope that it will be optional.

^ Well it's not like you're compelled to visit the section. One's idea of pointlessness isn't the same as another person's and it doesn't exactly take up much room at the top at all (prior to the update).

If the Techies can bring back the news announcement feature, I don't see why not. It would probably be preferable than having an automated message pop up in the SB every time a new thread is made in the News Compendium.

DragonByte Tech and Belazor can probably offer more feedback about this and see if it can be brought back.

As for a Facebook fan page...I guess if enough people express interest in this, then alright.

etf is wrong with the facebook page?

 

[Steve-O]

it a profile, so someone have to accect requests as with a fanpage people can just join.. making it easier to manage it

News announcements were fine. I do find the new Sb notification thing for News quite annoying if you were not intending to appear there in the first place..

The news thing in the SB is fine, that can stay

Ryan just wants to feel special when he posts a new news thread.

As for me, it didn't really bother me having the news at the top, since I rarely looked at it anyways.
