Subject: The next update.

When is the next update for the site going to happen? What's going to be in it?

As far as I can tell nobody seems to know the answers to these things. There are a couple of thing that would be nice to see. I would like to see less stickies on the forums, but they are there for a reason and do serve a purpose, it would just be nice if there were a way to keep people informed without so many of them. This would make it a little easier for threads to get noticed, before being knocked back off the front page. Less stickies means more room on the front page for threads. This may also decrease the number of times, and the number of people that like to bump things, hopefully doing the same to the number of people being warned and banned for these offenses.

The report as spam button seems to have helped to cut down on some of the more pointless threads, but now there is another problem. People not posting things where they belong. I don't know how this could be fixed unless there was a way to say very specifically what each forum is for under the name of the forum. Or have a report as should be moved button. It is something that would be nice, but is not a must, since things posted where they don't belong are spam.

I would also like to see more options for group mods, and admins, as far as temporary bans go. Sometimes seven days is too much. Also some sort of warning system, similar to the soul, instead of having to send out a PM yourself to a member that they are being warned not to do something again or they will be banned. It would also be nice to see a way to send a PM out to more than one person at a time, rather than typing it out again or copy and paste it over and over.

Any thoughts, questions, comments? Please do not flame.

I know the group themes/update will be included.

I would like to see less stickies on the forums, but they are there for a reason and do serve a purpose, it would just be nice if there were a way to keep people informed without so many of them. This would make it a little easier for threads to get noticed, before being knocked back off the front page. Less stickies means more room on the front page for threads. This may also decrease the number of times, and the number of people that like to bump things, hopefully doing the same to the number of people being warned and banned for these offenses. Achronos has said that they have come up with a new use for stickies, so they might no longer be on the first page.

...but now there is another problem. People not posting things where they belong.

I would also like to see more options for group mods, and admins, as far as temporary bans go. Sometimes seven days is too much. Also some sort of warning system, similar to the soul, instead of having to send out a PM yourself to a member that they are being warned not to do something again or they will be banned.
