What are some of the things you would do to make it better or change it up a bit?
If you ran GFY what would you do?

I might make it possible for people to give thumbs up or down on people's posts, and then have that number reflected under the person's name. So if you're the type of person who always posts crap, you might have -387, but if you post good stuff, you might have +5428I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded. -
It's kinda like the reviews on Amazon.com where it says "Did you find this review useful?"Originally posted by quietgreat idea brisk.
or how ebay members have points that help others understand whether they're a quality member or a scammer
I've seen forums that have things like this for the membersI post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

to expand on the brisk idea, the overall score by the poster could determine page placement.
if a poster with a -385 posts something, it goes right to the bottom half of the page.
Plus I would be a banning fool. Maybe once your score get too a point like -1000 the name gets banned."We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine."Comment

That definitely wouldn't work as has already been posted. Great in theory, but those with board stalkers would be outta here in less than a day.Originally posted by 3piece chicken DinnerPlus I would be a banning fool. Maybe once your score get too a point like -1000 the name gets banned.
I would implement a newbie forum and they wouldn't be able to get access to the MAIN forum until they proved their worth to the masses. Either by vote, or give them a probation period. Something along those lines.Comment

You could make it so that there was a maximum number of positive or negative votes from one user to another.Originally posted by ronaldoThat definitely wouldn't work as has already been posted. Great in theory, but those with board stalkers would be outta here in less than a day.

For example, if I just really didn't like you, I could only vote thumbs down on you a maximum of 10 times, any more than that just wouldn't be counted.I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

However, some eBay functionality would be cool. People could rate eachother on a business transaction. Positive and negative points would make sense and keep people from dealing with shitheads.Comment

I'd give me my name back.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.Comment

I can't take credit for the idea, I've just seen similar things on other forums and thought it was good. Plus we've all seen how it works with the eBay feedback scores or the Amazon.com user reviews. GFY could use a system of rewarding the quality posters and punishing the idiots.Originally posted by J-$i say brisk's idea is geniusI post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

Originally posted by EroticySteveDon't fix it if it aint broke.
With all due respect to this board, it's far past broke as a webmaster forum. Some of the changes mentioned would go a long way into making advertising here a little more worth while to the sponsors that pay to do so."We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does.
