Title: Site improvements for 2012
Post by: Tyler on December 05, 2011, 04:57:47 PM
I'm looking to make some improvements to SBG in 2012 and want to get your feedback.  What would YOU like me to add to the site?

Please keep it focused and on topic...I really want to understand what you guys want.

How about a sly chat room with the added capacity of private chat?

What about a feature to "follow" other users. There are certain users whose commentary I enjoy reading. It'd be nice to know when the post new comments.

I've got one:d
what about a facebook "like" button for every topic? (yes, it is possible).
This way, we'll promote the website all over facebook :)
(1 like = e new "story" added to profile of the one that "liked" that topic :)

Another bulletin board that I monitor provides a feed with the latest post on the top of the list.

Of all the treads, the thread with the most recent post is at the top of the list and then following in order. It's easy to review the most recent posts.

The various discussion groups on sbg seems to not do this. There are some "NEW" flags that show up, but it's not simple to find them quickly.

This would be a nice feature.  You do have the main page scroll, but it only goes back about 7 or 8 posts.

Is there anyway to add a "new response to your quote or response" taking you directly to the part of the thread it may pertain?

It would be great to have a "Before and After" sticky thread somewhere, these photos are great and it's interesting to see peoples journies.

I know there's a gallery, but it would be nice to have it in one big sticky thread...maybe in Bald Stories  :)

Great site by the way  O0
