[Don't say 'no support' until you have read the WHOLE POST. Be fair.]

I find S&I being a forum to be really, really inefficient. You make a thread, it's on the 3rd page within a couple hours (That is, if you bump it. But that could be considered spam.). To find your thread, you'd need to flood your bookmarks with links to threads you have made. And when your idea starts to get a lot of replies, the only way to find out how many people support and don't would be having to count manually. May sound easy, but what if your idea has like 16 pages of replies? I wouldn't want to waste my time finding that out, because yes, I care about the amount of supporters I have to know whether or not my idea has a chance of being an actual feature or not,

So, let me give my idea now: A whole new suggestion system. This title doesn't really tell a whole lot, I know. So, here's the idea explained in a little more 'depth':

Basically, this forum section is removed as a whole, and replaced with an actual site area, like 'roblox.com/suggest' or something. It could be under more, titled 'Suggestions'. That way, there can be a WAY more organized list of suggestions. Good for users, and the ROBLOX team themselves! Easy to navigate, and a simple idea.

Listed at that page could be categories, a bit like the front page.
There could be categories like:
- Hot Topic (A suggestion with a lot of views and comments.)
- Most Supported (A suggestion that contains more supports then usual.)
- Newest/Latest (The name explains itself.)

It could be like the games page, list a few ideas and then implement a "see more" button after it.

Once you click the idea, you would see these things:
- Cover Art (That will be explained later.)
- The suggestion itself (Written, like a forum post.)
- The likes/dislikes bar (Or the support/no-support bar.)
- The comments section (Like any other comments section.)

Simple layout, I'd say. And now, about the cover art: Cover art can be anything as long as it relates to your idea. It could be like gallery items. A good way covert art can be used is giving the viewers a graphical image of their idea, just in case their explaining isn't that good. Or really whatever you want.
(The images will be moderated, to. They can be alongside gallery items, since they're basically the same thing, just for a different item.)

You can thumbs up or thumbs down an idea. Basically, if you support, you thumbs up. If you don't, you do the opposite.

And a mod will also be able to flag your suggestions with these labels:
- PLANNED
- IMPLEMENTED

That way, you can see if your idea is going to be added or not.
Also, if you get the 'Implemented' label, I think it would be cool to get like 100 tix or something for your idea.

BEFORE YOU CLICK AWAY, we're getting to the best part of this idea? Know all the spam and troll-threads in S&I? Well, suggestions themselves can get moderated. When you post it, you will get a message saying: "Your idea was sent to be moderated. Please allow us a 48 hour time period to read your idea. Thanks!", or something like that.

But you could still view the idea in your submissions. If you linked the idea, there would be a message above it saying "THIS IDEA ISN'T APPROVED" and there wouldn't be any cover art, comments section, or likes/dislikes bar.

Ideas? I put a lot of thought into this idea.

1. Support.
2. You can already add images into the forum, click the little image and enter a ROBLOX image URL. (Posted to ROBLOX. Like a decal.)

tl;dr

But I do support, because we do need a new system not S&I.

Here are the Pro's and Con's for your suggestion.

Pro's: This will make S&I more organized, more suggestions will be made into the game, and I'm pretty sure that is it.

Cons: A bad thread could easily make the front page by most views and posts.

Pros win, support.

@Buck
If you mean that a spam thread can be popular upon views and comments, it should only go by unique views (So you can't f5 to get views) and unique comments (Like if a user comments and comments again, only his first comment would count toward the comment number.).

Well, it could be IP-Based. Sure, that could still be abused, but it's harder to abuse than how you thought it would work.

One word for that.

Proxy Servers.

Exactly what I said.
But reminder, be aware of ROBLOX's userbase, and be aware of the average age.
ROBLOX's userbase is rather young, I'm not sure many kids know about proxy servers.

And no kid is going to get on S&I to support this stuff.

They play games and build, don't think they would get on here.

Yeah, I guess. But I've seen MANY immature people on S&I (Not going to name names.)

Anything really can be abused. That's what moderators are for, in the first place.
