So as you can see there are six pages of suggestions in this subforum and I'd like for that to change, for the sake of organization and so that ideas can be sorted through. Here are some ideas:
#1
New rule: If a suggestion doesn't gain support within the first 1-2 months of it's posting, then it shall be considered denied and therefore closed.
This will take care of the suggestions posted that gain little support and fall into obscurity (some examples being https://wonderland.tf/threads/thinking.1835/, https://wonderland.tf/threads/change-the-x1000-orange-server-maps.2644/, and https://wonderland.tf/threads/can-this-map-add-new-zm-map-in-zm-server.2786/). If a suggestion doesn't gain significant support within such a large timespan of 30-60 days, then it is probably not a suggestion that will be approved. Just looking at some accepted suggestions, they are able to gain lots of traction and be accepted within a timeframe such as this.
#2
Add thread prefixes "Pending," "To-Do," "Accepted (Implemented?)," and "Denied."
This was something on the old IPS forums that I really enjoyed, as it was really organized and worked well to catalog all the threads in the Suggestions subforum. We could even create "sub-sub" forums of "Accepted" (for "To-Do" and "Implemented" suggestions) and "Denied" (for...well..."Denied" suggestions), as while you are able to search threads by forum prefixes, I never felt like this was a commonly known fact, especially for newbies to the forums who may be having trouble grasping how to use the website in the first place.
Feel free to contribute organization suggestions of your own.
