Ideas appreciated!

Let me know if you have any ideas on what we can do to improve the Forum. Besides advertising. I'll get to that later.

I dunno, MNore Boards to Talk on like a "Flame Board" or "Debate/Argument Board" Also more boards to Talk on liek... I dunno, You're the Admin...

I agree. There should be more options.

I'm not sure how a flame board would benefit the Forum, and Debate/Argument could kind of happen anywhere anyways. I can't really think of any new boards that are necessary, what do you guys think? What else would you want to discuss?

Maybe Change the Catagory Bars, If you know how... They're a bit dull... Or a Skin Selector because though the Current Skin is good But it get's a bit boring... No big deal though except some Guests will turn away (Trust me... I've made many of Forums)

Anyway Besides Lack of Members this is a good site.

There has to be a way to get more members.

how about we can write a review for the story we read.

A Story of the Week or Month forum? Great Stories that are widly recognised are movd here. When there is more members though...

That's definitely something I have wanted to do here. I'm just not sure how to do it exactly.

Go me... Go me...

You will need a couple more Super Moderators/Admins *CoughTopPosterCough* and you'll need a lot more members. You can just edit the name of the Story in its board and say something like.

'Storyname Uber Award (DD/MM)' and then post a link to the Story in the Story of the Week/Month forum and people can discuss its sucsess. Also there would be a Sticky Post in the Story of the Month board called 'Archive'. Then at the End of a Year, Make a Poll with all 12 Stories of the Month and they can win Story of the Year and earn a Global Mod Status.

There should also be a Writer of the Month/Year as well, not for there stories but for their style of writing ect.

I agree with Jimbob so when that time come,put up a poll.If there is a new member and he/she story is good as well then put up another poll.

I think that there should be several different kinds of awards.

First we need several differant members .

Bulk E-mail all the DBV members on the Admins Control Panel (On DBV)...

I already did that. I just think that I need something bigger to attract more people to the site. (Working on it? )

There will be a "Story of the Month" poll soon. In the meantime, what do you think of the changes on here?

Hmm, I dont really like the new bubbles next to the topic. Sure, the zzz and yay ones are clever, but i preferred the bright red colour to instantly let me know if theres an update.
Other than that, everythings fine.

I agree with you, I'll probably fade the "zzz" out and maybe make the yay red, to make the difference more noticeable.

Thats great, looks ALOT better. Happy upcoming birthday as well.

A lot better, like i'm underwater..... Well done

Why don't you open up the portal option? I cant really say if it will improve the site, but it could hurt. Go to Administration Panel (I use the old version because it's easier for me to understand), use Advanced Options, go to Portal, then Configuration. Where it says "Show the Portal", click on yes. Then choose whatever other options that you want to use.

I don't know if you already know how to do this. But if you don't, then now you know.
