Games

[Halfdanjal]

So, the idea is not so big, but it can increase forums activity and even make one new group. The group would be "Creative Guru", now I will explain why this would be needed. There are some cool things to do in forums, that does not include pure spam. For instance: Forum game [Characterize your fellow infinitian] would be a thread where you should say what you think about the user who has posted before you. Starting with the creator of thread. Let's pretend, that I made the thread. Then Diaval would post in that thread and say what he thinks about me in at least 3 sentences and at least 7 words in each sentence (to avoid spam), if he posts less, he receives a punishment and his post is deleted. But, since Diaval wouldn't violate rules, let's say that he characterized me very well, then somebody else should characterize Diaval. Post interval would be 3, so it means, that I can post again only then, when Diaval has posted, after him Nikki and then Heruvim and only then I can characterize Heruvim. That is just one of all the ideas I have. Ofc, you all understood, that I would like to make everything there and I would like to be the so called "Creative Guru", but to do all that, I would need a new subforum called Forum Games, and there I could host some cool forum events, for instance: "Guess the infinitian". This event would require me to receive photos from infinitians, I would disort them and all of you should guess then who is the infinitian just by writing his forum nickname. I have lots of ideas, but I need to know, would ya'll support me on this idea to create things like this and would you even want ME to do all of that.

So, what do you think? Do you want more fun in the forum?

All infinitians want's fun and YES! I agree that you'll host some forum games but I think most would prefer fun and simplier games.

This is not a bad idea at all,I like those 2 events you mentioned,it will indeed increase activity.

I am just wondering why do you need a new subforum,when you have Player Hosted Events section,you can create all that in there,and since this is going to be in the forum,the Mod Team will handle any thread organisation you need,that's why I don't think we need more subsections.

And I am wondering if you are requesting a new tag group with that suggestion?

 

[Xeltran]

Well nice suggestion out there. I agree with that. Sounds interesting,besides it will add more closeness to one another. Goodluck!

Player hosted events, well. Yes, I was thinking about that, but to be honest, put that together and think about it. Forum game, that let's people describe each other, they receive no prizes for that, they receive good words, sometimes probably even bad words. They receive honesty. I don't see that as player hosted event. Guess the infinitian. Okay, that could be a good player hosted event, but since that would be a forum game, at least how I call it, I would like the prizes to be forum points for level ups. For instance 50 points for 1 correctly guessed infinitian. The points would be given exactly from, yes, the "Creative Guru", so this is a new group with new tag that I am suggesting and willing to work in. I have great ideas, I can realize them, but there is one thing required. Access to that forum or sub forum. And most importantly, to make everything go smoothly there. I am suggesting to create whole new forum or sub forum, that would be the place for all FORUM GAMES, that is the key word. And forum games get you prizes in forum, sometimes in-game, when I will have something that I can give away. I can write more ideas, but what is the point? Everybody can talk, but not everybody can do, so I am willing to SHOW you all the fun I can create here.

I don't have anything in mind and I like your ideas,they are fun,exciting and something to keep people's mind occupied,the points which don't need to happen and can't happen are the following:

- No need for a whole new forum since we already have a section for hosting events by non-staff members,which is enough to create numerous threads exactly for this situation.

-You cannot give forum points,you can donate from yourself,but eventually they will run out,and only the Lead Moderator and Administrator can add forum points to an account,which must require patience from the winners,because none of us are present 24/7,and if someone wins he has to wait for someone to come and add the points.This won't be a problem for me to add points if the Admins are up for it.

-A new tag,this would bring debate if RESiSTANT is willing to add more tags to those which exist already,even if it happens the Moderator permissions will remain to Moderators alone which will help you in this task if you need them.

 

[Halfdanjal]

Okay then, but if I will host any events there, I have to give prize to winner anyway. Because if they are player hosted and I am the host, I have to give out the prizes. I could give them for a while but eventually all my winds will run out and what then? And the forum games I am suggesting, okay, I can just post them, no problem about that, but where then? There is no section for that. Spam? Off-topic? For Forum Games there should be at least a sub forum in Off-Topic, because that would be the right place where everyone could post fun forum games. If the game would be inactive for 1 month, the Moderators could just close them. That is the main reason I made this suggestion. I could have just posted all the games and that's it, but I don't see any place to do it in that suits the purpose.

Your subforum request will be forwarded for discussion with the Administrators in this case,
As of the prizes (forum points) we would discuss it as well
Your ideas are interesting

 

[BraveHeart]

Not bad, but I think that it doesn't need a new tag, and a new subforum neither. Dimitar told you why above. Also I don't think if you need power to that subforum (if its added) unless the tag (if its added as well) gives you the power. Since we the Mods could handle it and DimER might give the Forum Points as prize.

You can host any events you find fit in here and see if infinitians will be willing to join. However, there is no need for more forum tags currently we have a lot, maybe even too many.

For creative ideas, staff team could sponsor a prize and the event could end at 200th or 300th poster for example who will recieve the prize we can discuss this via pm.
