Idea.

If we were to create a Special Reserve interactive homepage for each user, what would you like to see on it? And I don't just mean the individual stats pages that you have at the moment, I'm talking things like:

o A friends list so you can click through to see your mates' details and when and where he last posted.

o Recommended products determined by past purchases.

o The last 5 topics posted in your forum of choice.

o Latest news streamed directly onto the page.

o Perhaps some flash-based arcade games and the latest high scores, with maybe a prize for the best score each week.

That sort of stuff, all on the one homepage. If we were to do something like this, what kind of stuff would you want on it?

Not saying we are going to do this, y'know... just maybe

EDIT: Remember, this is to be your personal homepage, not something that everyone else will be able to see. There won't be a lot of point having, say, a photo of yourself on there if only you can see it.

Me too, that's why I have a mirror on top of my computer.

Anyway, how about a "watch thread" option so you can keep tabs on thread you're interested in. I for one stuggle to find threads at 3am for some reason the seem to sink into never-never land around that time.

I like admiring myself daily though.

Not talking about geneal changes to the whole site here, just one page that could have lots of interactive stuff on it like latest news, latest gameaday winner, charts, a wishlist, a friends list, stuff like that.

All ideas will be taken on board, but bear in mind we're not looking for suggestions like 'user moderators'.

I only want a list of subforums I can go to, which I already have. Plus maybe some pictures of naked ladies.

The thing I'd most like to see added to the SR boards, and I'm glad you asked about this, is user moderators. Take a selection of Notables, baste with tomato puree, garnish with cinnamon and cook on low heat for 45 minutes and you have an order-of-magnitude more control over the thoughtless drooling that generally characterises this place. Of course this opens a can of worms with notables having power over other users, but it would improve the Special Reserve experience for me and at the end of the day that's more important than all your other puny mortal considerations.

If it sounds pointless, it's because only a few people have come up with ideas. What do you want to see on this kind of page?

It sounds a bit pointless to be honest, except the flash games thing.

I'm confused....you're a staff member again?

How many times can a place let you back?
