What would you like to see on BOS? (7 Viewers)

[Stygian]

I want to see negative rep introduced

 

[Chronost]

General ideas floating in my head include:

Intelligent discussion sub-section- people complaining about trying to have intelligent dicussions on non-sense when in reality it's really just used as a spam forum and intelligent discussions fade quite quickly, with a sub-section there is always a chance to re-ignite discussion about something- spam shouldn't be tolerated in this section.

Forum competitions - this could lead to the introduction of more rank symbols apart from the one you get for championing a arcade game, this would lead to better community spirit and interaction - which could ignite more flames on BoS

Maybe some form of special repuation for buy/sell to note repuation relating to buy/sell as general rep can be different and can lead to some scamming.

I used to be a forum moderater somewhere else(still fairly close with them) and these ideas definitely generated more traffic/audience and overall community.(apart from the special reputation, where people use vouch threads instead)

auto-refresh for forum posts, clicking whats new every time can get annoying

I would personally like to see many of the dead links that are present at the moment fixed. I'm not sure if it's just my browser but

Privacy policy and terms of use are broken

Under "Quick Links" Open contacts popup is broken

Advertise and Premium are broken. About us redirects to the forum homepage

Forum Rules is broken

Victorian VCE redirects to what i presume is an archived/deleted section

Credit card guide and Careers guide are broken

Donate somehow resets the site to an old layout

Additionally, pages such as Scaling pretty much fully consist of dead links

I'm sure there are a few others that i encountered in the past but i think this gives a general idea. I am by no means complaining and this doesn't personally bother me too much at all. However, i believe things such as this go a long way in the sites overall presentation. Some may just be WIP's but though i should bring it up anyway
