*If you click this thread and notice it's old (like over a month old I guess), then I probably bumped it so that it is alive until a mod (doing his rare check here) actually sees this thread.*
I've always thought from time to time (and it REALLY bothered me!) that, well, this forum is pretty much useless.
Why? The ideas, aren't actually GETTING to the mods. This is because ideas that are actually good NEVER stand out, and all the mods see when they RARELY visit this forum is about 15 different threads splattered on a single page. In addition to that, the only way to tell that an idea got the attention it deserved is by a crap ton replies and views!
Of course, you can't tell if an idea got a ton of HATE or LOVE by the community, because all you see is a few numbers and that's it.
But, my solution:
A voting system! We all know that a poll site had once existed where we would have ideas created and voted for so that mods could see the ideas that were wanted, but it just disappeared. That site was gone, so now we have a pointless forum as I had mentioned.
Basically, this NEW system probably wouldn't involve a new site, but I don't know how the mods would think of it.
Anyways, threads on this forum can be VOTED for. There will be a No support button and a Support button, allowing players to make sure a thread get's seen. When a thread get's supported/no supported a certain amount of time, a mod reviews it and if the mod knows that the idea got no supported/supported legit, then they can do one of two things:
-When an idea is SUPPORTED, it will be sent to a new sub-forum that I will explain next.
-When an idea is NO SUPPORTED (and made sure legit), it is closed and nobody can reply/bump (to) the thread.
Now, the important part! There will be a new sub-forum, with only about a page of threads. Here, players can vote for ideas and ideas that are SUPPORTED enough times, the mods will be notified, repeat the process of making sure it's legit, and the mods will try to make sure the idea happens.
As I have previously said, threads that could be cleared and sent to this new sub-forum are queued and will be put on the sub-forum as soon as a space opens up for the thread. This is to prevent the mods from drowning in ideas (especially bad ones), which is the current situation in this forum.
That's all I have to say! Thanks for reading and surviving the process. Well, at least it isn't as bad as some certain threads...

| It would take a lot of coding to edit one subforum to do all this. |

either we waste our lives supporting/no supporting ideas here or the dev team at least implements some form of voting system...
let's be honest here, they just redid the site UI entirely, and I haven't lost faith in them just yet. |

Actually they could delete this whole forum and once you click S&I there will be a huge box that is the ROBLOX uservoice site. W/o redirecting. SUpport

true
but a new sub-forum is far easier than a new website (because we all know that ROBLOX would get supa-OCD on us and make an entire fanceh website m8) |

This would be nice, yeah. An option to view the most/least voted items would be cool too.

| I really doubt they will put a no support button (if they do they are complete hypocrites) it says in the ToS Not to say "No support" if it is added it will be something stupid like "I do not wish to support" I havent finished reading this but so far it sounds good, so well back to reading. buh bai. |

thx m8
but the mods can't tell if people really hate it, because they'll find it real hard to actually tell if people don't support it, due to the fact they would have to count it (which would be pointless!!) |

This wouldn't be too hard to code. Support.
However, I have to disagree with your method of doing this. Bumping constantly until you get a direct moderator response will never work, and your thread will likely be deleted if you bump too many times. Remember that this is still a sub-forum and the rules apply. One of those rules is letting an idea sit. |
