Hey Corder,

Thanks so much for the suggestions. Some new and not so new suggestions there.

I think there are some we're more likely to think about than others, I don't feel the "active users now" is accurate and just leads to some of our users misunderstanding because of it, for example so we'd leave any further activity monitor our of updates and frankly probably get rid of the existing one. It doesn't add much value.

Notifications on the other hand, definitely a must have from the community minded JMods if we had free reign over these updates.

Like Mrs Ana shared, the forums aren't [regrettably] our current priority, and we're working hard on some big development sized work at the moment. I'll keep your thread on our community suggestions notes though and relay this to the rest of the team, if we manage to get round to updating these hallowed halls.

Thanks,
Mod Lyon
Regardless of the contents of your post, I just want to say another thank you for continually reading the W&F subforum (you and the rest of the web team) and posting almost all the time to forum/website suggestions.

It is highly appreciated, and means so much to the forum community, especially when other staff members unfortunately do not use these forums anymore (some admitted to this on Reddit, Twitter and Twitch).


Thanks again. <3

Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.

As for the OP - I like quite a few of the suggestions. Hopefully in 2021 there will be some space for forum upgrades. :)

Given how prolific you guys are on other platforms, frankly it's a wonder you don't just pull the plug on this place altogether.

Hi Lyon,

Like wise for you, I appreciate you had a look!

It's understandable that you lot have other priorities than serving the state of the forum, as we all know, there are less than 100 active users give or take, in public forums. I don't know about Specialist forums, it might be more populated, but I can't reasonably imagine so. I'm glad to hear updates from you and I'm sure the rest are as well!

I won't pressure you too much on this one. Have fun with the other projects, and remember that we're still happy to use the forums as is - so don't stress yourselves!

Thank you Ana, Lyon, Loki! ^_^
(I was unable to post in reasonable time, for some reason it locked me out of it :O )

Revisiting this thread - I just saw something along the lines of "1 user viewing this forum" below the count of total forumers in the upper right. I did not know that exists, pretty cool. Sadly it disappeared once I refreshed the page. :(

Nice. It now appears again. Whoee. :D

Warning: Lots of image spoilers...


While being low priority issue, I think being able to color my smileys would be fun.

Wouldn't you think?!
