What you think about just allowing Item releases(client and server side), databases(no personal information), server files, and random tools like the GM Helpers

Tell me what you think

It sounds like an alright idea, but you have to look at both sides of the story.


At the moment, the release section is fine. It has everything you need, and which is of importance in usually 1-2 pages of searching.


But, if you allow people to post stuff as random as 15d custom weapons, self-made databases, tools and etc, the release section will be clogged with stuff that most server owners will render as useless.For now, in my opinion, I think you should just prioritize the important stuff, and maybe create a sub-section like "Private SRO Releases - Custom" for people to put all their stuff in.

well, the Sub-sections idea, has already been talked, and there are too much "categories" to be create a new section for each one(also, Custom section will be the most clogged one, as the "official" will only have 4-5 threads)

also, for queries, a "Query thread" could work
Thanks for the feedback btw

I want to hear suggestions(If John reads this, a little feedback from you could guide me on here)

Create separate sticky threads titles "Queries" "Custom Databases" and etc? Would be an easier way to focus mainly on other things. But, to stop random spam and viruses, make the minimum required posts in those threads something like 200?

Another idea I've had for quite a while now is creating a couple of stickied threads in the Private SRO Advertising section. These threads can be called (Turkish SRO Advertising) - (Romanian SRO Advertising) - (German SRO Advertising) and so on. I can't even recall the last time I visited a thread and It's in full turkish language and not been able to understand a word of it, though the title looked like it was a convincing server.

well, the advert sections/threads are a different story, as they will have the same thread to spam over the same server, while having other server advertise on the same thread, which will lead to a GREAT flamewar
as for the Releases, I think it works perfectly for the Queries, but for databases and such no, as they first need to be approved to assure the files go according to our rules

Sticking to my point, if another moderator was added in the future, the job would be 99% easier, and 100% more possible

I also think inside the Private SRO Discussion a sticky called 'Post your database ideas & customized creations'

And have the main rule as - No leaked databases, would bring out the creative side in elitepvpers

I'd love to see a thread where players can actually contribute their ideas, even if they might sound strange there's still a possibility that a server has the abilities to implement something similar

Even though It's a very good idea, It's been suggested so many times and threads have indeed been created revolving your idea.

[PortalDark]

the idea thread sounds good, in fact, it deserves a chance
@haxor, I think I may stick that thread as it is a collection of the queries and many interesting stuff
However, Im having a hard time right now(blame my IT dep) so as soon as I get home, I'll take the time to do it

Aaaaand I dun like your thread design

Neither of these were stickied and created by a MOD

[鳳凰城]

Old and many created this idea. Including me. probably, I was the first one who made it. On my old account....But, if the thread would be organized and prepared as well, it would be awesome.
For those who had a brain-****** and would like to spam *YUO NO CRYTED ZREAD YUO LYE*

ill take a look to it at home
right now, Im reading them to understand the queries
Also, im expecting to create an OPEN thread that user post their queries
The other releases, I have to think about it, since the discussion over that threads point must not be mixed with other releases(queries are ok)

[IceAmStiel]

Portal where is my flippin stickied Player Suggestion thread
