Indeed.
--
#1: "Goto to"?
At the bottom of a thread, if there is more than 1 page, it says "Goto to page 1, 2". It just looks silly, get rid of it.
#2: Remove "Right now I'm" from statuses.
Almost everyone forgets it's there when they update their status. It looks quite silly when you view it on their profile (however, on feeds for some reason, "Right now I'm" does not show up), and it says something like, "Right now I'm: I just bought this new game, it's really cool!" If people do indeed incorporate "Right now I'm" into their statuses, they can type it in themselves. You are allowed something around 230 characters, "Right now I'm" is 13. Chances are, you're not doing something that takes 217 characters to summarize, unless you're listing all the toppings in a huge open-face sandwich.
#3: Something more noticeable when I receive a message?
It's easy to miss new messages and friend requests, just because it's a little update way up in the corner that you never look at. Chat messages, too, are very hard to notice. It's quite irritating when someone is "Online: Website" and they don't respond to my message for a full hour simply because it's so unnoticeable. How about a beep? Or at least have it appear in the middle of the screen? Make these settings optional so that famous people won't be bothered by the dozens of messages they receive every ten minutes.
#4: Let's give the wardrobe a makeover.
We need a search system. For you OBCers that have 200 pages of hats.
We need to be able to move clothing articles around. In this way, we can access our more treasured items quickly.
We need a scroll bar instead of pages. This will make searching much quicker, and much more efficient.
We need the ability to combine hats, gear, shirts, pants, T-shirts, and bodies into outfits, so that we can quickly slip them on in order to fit the genres of different places.
#5: I want to find these people.
Show me the people that visited my place last. This can be viewed in another tab. Obviously, this is not very helpful for famous people who get 10,000 visits a day, but it is useful for those of us who average 0.88 a week. It's interesting to see who visited our place.
But also, I want to be able to see who I interacted with in the last 5 servers I was in. This way, I could easily single out exploiters with difficult names, or potential friends who left before I could catch the name.
#6: I don't care for these forum games, I want them gone from MyForums.
I have several threads in my Top 25 Threads That You Participated In that simply won't die. I haven't posted on them for years, but it's getting irritating to constantly see them in the place of another, more pertinent post. Either give us the ability to delete these threads permanently from this list, OR make it so that it shows threads that you RECENTLY participated in. Currently, it's the Top 25 Threads That You Participated In At Some Point Which Are Still Alive Because People Post On It Quite Frequently. Or both.
#7: Make new features that are remakes OPTIONAL.
Many people whine about how they don't like the new format of this and that. I'm getting sick of hearing it. So before you remake something (such as the Playerlist or the old Inbox format), make sure people can choose between the old version and the new version - whichever they appreciate more.
#8: Let us delete messages.
Is it too much to ask?
#9: I'd like the ingame FR to actually work, please.
Yes, ingame, when you send a friend request or receive one, and it gets accepted, it says you're the other person's friend. And the little smiley face appears next to their name. But their name doesn't show up on your friends list, and if you meet them in a game later, the smiley face isn't there either. Fix it please.
#10: Let's fix that old "3/10 players and I can't join" bug.
It's driving me crazy. For certain games, I appreciate smaller servers. But it's quite ridiculous that even when it says that there are four people less than the server cap allows, it says that the game is full. I don't know if this is because there is a delay in updating the server size, but it's annoying. Fix it. Also note that in games with 3 servers, one of which is full, another of which is at 7/10, and the last of which is 5/10, I click Play and I end up in an empty server. No fun.
#11: Rent-a-server!
Ok, this isn't technically a 'small' update. I guess it could be considered one. Whatever. There's nothing that you can do about it anyways. So yeah, I was thinking about how it's annoying that you can't have like a party or anything at a cool place because of the fact that the server fills up really quickly with random strangers that you can't kick. D:
So, I was thinking about being able to rent servers. The owner could put how many servers are available for rent, for how long, and how many people they can hold each. 30 player servers that you can rent for a full day would be quite expensive, whereas a 2 player server for an hour would be quite inexpensive. It would be a nice way for owners to get some extra money with some mutual incentive thrown in there, since tips are pretty much pro-owner. Unless you're one of those people that feels REALLY great about donating small portions of money to somebody.
#12: Whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened to player ads?
I understand that offsite ads make ROBLOX money. But this is ridiculous. I don't care about seeing the ads, it's just the fact that I barely ever see a player ad, and when I do, it's always for some random war group that's like, "Join the roblawcks pawners and keel evry1!!1!1!!!1"
Come on. It's also bad for the ad makers, because their ads aren't seen by half the community. Come on. Cut down on the offsite ads a LITTLE, please?
#13: Um, contests? Hellooo?
You guys haven't made a contest in a really long time. It defeats the purpose of there being a "Contests" page if the last one is about to celebrate its first anniversary. I didn't like the voting system, though. Maybe you could fix that, while you're at it?
#14: Catalog try-on feature thing!
Inspired by this dude that suggested refunds. Of course, I was all like, "No, Shedletsky said 'No refunds,' so in ur faic" but that gave me the idea. Of course, oversuggested, but still - why is this not implemented as of yet? Come on. Admit it, ROBLOX - a lot of your hats look like pure fail when you finally try 'em on. But then it's too late, and you just squandered a bucket full of moolahs. Prevent this - add a try-on feature, instead of making Seranok continuously richer as we visit Catalog Heaven. Of course, he doesn't have to worry about squandering money.
#15: Ask the community first.
Well, I needed some excuse to get to 15, because I'm OCD. But this one is quite legitimate, and it bugs a lot of people when this crud happens. You say, "No suggesting to undo a massive update," well, what if we don't like it? You just say tough luck. But creating products that none of your customers want is not a way to become successful. Stamper tool? Failure. Bodies? Give me a break. ASK the community IF we want these things before you add them, and only do it if a VAST majority of the people want it. It is better for you not to create an update even if only 40% don't want it, just because those who wanted the update can live without it, whereas those who didn't want it may quit because of it or rant non-stop about it on S&I, and I CANNOT deal with all those trolls alone. It seems like the S&I Forumers Crew policemen aren't on enough to stop these people.
#16: Let's have "Return to post" actually return us to the post, shall we?
Dang! I needed 16!
Anyways. Currently, if you break the filter, you get a message saying how you broke the rules and if you think it's silly well too bad etc. etc. etc. Well, the return to post option returns us to the THREAD, not the post. I'm aware that you can just click the back arrow at the top left, but what's the use of a button if it's useless?
--
Although this thread may have seemed a little comical, particularly near the end, I am serious about most of these. I do want them, and although they are, as the title so adequately puts it, small and nearly useless, they are nevertheless necessary. Well, most of them.

@Stelth
I don't do TL;DRs. The reason being is because if you read the TL;DR version of it, you may miss a lot of key pointers and say, "Well this is stupid because," even though I already proved 100% that it WASN'T stupid.
If you don't want to take the time to read all that I have to say, and it really shouldn't take you any more than 5 minutes to read all of that at a fairly quickened pace, then just don't read my thread. Not talking to you, just so you know, just everyone who says "tl;dr" in general.

@Galen
Ok, thanks for the clarification on that. However, this is still a problem, then. Sometimes there are more than 3 servers that aren't full which I can't access because of this, and sometimes these are the only 3 open servers in the game currently. So there should be some way to prevent this. Perhaps showing all the players destined for that server that have clicked "Play" or "Join Server" already, even if their character hasn't loaded yet? |

Support. Really like the idea about actually asking your customers about updates. I don't pay £40 for my game to be ruined by some rubbish update. |

Thank you all for the support.
The last time I made a thread like this, which included 15 small ideas, five of them were added within a year of that thread being posted. Maybe we can get the same result here. |
