Since the spiraling downfall of GaS and the impending loss of Legends, the forum is slowly losing popularity. Any suggestions for new ideas for activities we can hold on the forum? Any new features you want?
-
I don't know, but I feel the same way. I haven't posted on here nearly as much since I have no episodes to talk about

Um... well since I'm going to bed (rather mad, because I'm gonna miss the meteor shower), I'll think about it overnight. We need to get back in shape!

-An interview with kamehameha, aka "Robbie"!

I'm up for interviews. If only I could have gotten to that pendant...

Expect a series of PM's from me discussing this matter.

Legends fraud is the worst kind of fraud. Even worse than those credit-card identity thieves, and quite possibly worse than the Holocaust.

Alrighty then.
When did this "I was on Legends" start?
Do you even live in Florida? And if you do, why spend time online, when you could go to Disney World every day?

Look, kamehameha has been permanently banned from the forums, so this post won't matter. Furthermore, it's spam. Please think before you post.

I happen to be in Disney right now, it aint that great. However, the fact remains that this topic was created to come up with new ideas, so let's put the fraud chat to a rest and start building the future of this forum instead of focusing on the past.

Sorry to get off topic again, but not all the contestants did. Derrick from The Lost Love Letter of Captain John Smith was from Minnesota dere, don'cha know? (Aaronptrck interviewed Derrick.)
-
The Ancient Warrior, you are still spamming this topic. Being aware of your dumbass move doesn't make it any less dumbass. Please try to consider not being such.
-
Renegade Pancake, you have been horrible to nearly everyone one on this forum. Are calling people stupid and dumbass really neccesary? Do you think that anyone will join a forum where you have to keep your mouth shut, or be blasted by some moderator. Honestly, and it's sad, but I'm afraid to post anything anymore for fear of being put down.
-
The thing is, I'm not mean to people out from the getgo. Only when I feel they aren't exactly getting the point otherwise. NickLegends has been constantly reminding people to not spam certain threads. (This one included, it's up a few.) What the Ancient Warrior did is exactly what he cautioned about. He also has done this quite a few times in the past - times which I haven't done anything condescending - and hasn't quite gotten the point. ("I'm sorry for going offtopic, but blah blah blah" seems REALLY stupid. You're clearly not sorry since you did it. Commit.)
I'm not a mean guy. But sometimes, you need to put your foot down. Sorry for not being a pushover.
-
I'm sorry about that. But anyway, I don't know what we can do to improve the forum. I'm sorry, I just don't see what can be added.
-
I actually feel that we're "back in business", ever since the Ancient Warrior came.
-

My feelings exactly. Thanks for helping us out Ancient Warrior. Let's try and keep it going. We get a few more members, and we'll be on our way to the top.
-
I know. I feel like I actually have a need to post more now!
-
Seems like Olmec's objective is to post SO much so he can have the honor nobody cares about "Top Poster" and not only that he wants to have all of the "stuff" AKA: (I think you know) the pictures the "anti drug" with his signature (talk about over-exagerarting)

Aaron, this is not a forum for personal attacks. Furthermore, you're entirely off-topic. Do not do either again, please.

If you wanna attack me, feel free to do it PM. I'll be the better person & not say anything else.
(on topic)
I might get Green Monkey today.
-
All right, all of this was off topic. This topic was meant for coming up with new ideas. Since it's creation it has been the basis of much off topic disscussion, so let's keep it to that. NEW IDEAS.
-
I'll do another "Steps of Knowledge" game, unless the Ancient Warrior wants to do it again. I don't think the first one finished, but it was a lot of fun.
(I've been thinking more of my whole Legends game, if anyone remembers me bringing it up, but there are too many technicalities as of now)
-
It didn't, but since many of the questions I used in the first one were faulty, I'll let you make the Season 2, 3 and Lost Season 4 games.
-

Not to put you down (believe me, it is a brilliant idea) try to make sure for next time round that all the questions work out before the game so we don't mess up like last time, I think we could really makes this into something big.
-
Maybe we can have The First Annual Phantom's Temple Awards! We just nominate people (& Legends eppys) for categories, then we just vote between the real nominations. I think it would be fun.

That sounds like a great idea
We could have catagorys like
Smartest contestant
Most suprising victory
Most painful moment
Best temple guard scare
Best fogg up
Best olmec line
Best worst awnser at the steps and/or tiebreaker
Most Irelevant artifact
And we could give incredibly long yet boring speeches which could be skipped over
-
I think I might've encountered something like this in one of the threads of the forum, but I say let's make it anyways. But what to call the awards?
-
Olmecs choices?
The golden (artifact)?
-
Not a bad idea. I never was one for those, but if you all would like to do one I'd be more than happy to, however, I've got an idea for another contest that I wanted to hold the near future, so let's hold it off until the next contest.
-
One thing I would really like to see is a new section for other old Nick game shows. This would be a perfect way to expand the forum and attract other people who might be looking for another forum like this except for a different show.
-
That's actually a good idea. I mean, there's a lot of Legends fans and sites, but not so much for the other Nick game shows, I don't think. Would that be paired up with the Dark Forest thou, or made a main section like the Heart Room?
-
The Dark Forest already suits that purpose.
-
I realize that, but hardly anyone posts about other game shows. I think if an entirely new section is set up, it would attract more people. For someone who, let's say is looking for a GUTS forum, saw this forum now, they wouldn't realize that there is a place for other shows. If an entirely new section is made, we could really pick up some new people (which is something we want, right?)
-
I'm not going to let up on this, I really think a section for other GAS shows, airing or not, needs to be added. Although I really have no idea, I don't think setting up a new section is that difficult. Phantom, could you at least try it and see what happens. If it's a complete flop, you can just remove it. I really think we could get some new members this way.

Come to think of it, I suppose it couldn't hurt, we just never considered doing it since it felt sort of redundant, but yeah, we could try it out if you really want to.
-
Thank you, I would like for you to try it. I'm really sorry for geting back to you so late, but our computer was down for a few days.
-
it was actually the forum
-
I don't know if this would be a good idea, but I'm thinking that maybe some of the fan fics could have their own seperate forums, like there could be a special section for Rediscovery, Wild Jungle, mine (which I'm still thinking of a "name" for), etc.
-
Wow. Way to be pretentious in thinking your fanfiction requires its own forum.
Make your own forum / site if you want the attention that badly.

Or...
"Wow. Way to be trying to unclutter the Treasure Room in thinking making 3-4 more sections would spread it out."
-
It's not an awful idea, Olmec, but I can foresee a lot of jealousy being raised concerning who does and who doesn't get their own subforum. If it really becomes too hectic, of course we'll make some changes, but as of now we're doing well with the current system: each major fanfiction project having its own thread as en episode directory. Hopefully this will be enough.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing with people whining about not getting their own subforum & begging Phantom & you to insanity.
-
about the Nick Gas section, you could make a Nick section with 3 subsections in it: Nick @ Nite, Nick, and Nick Gas
-
That's a great idea!
-

But then we wouldn't be a Legends forum. That's called homogenization.
Bad.
-
It's also called OFF-TOPIC!! But, i see your point.

That's a good idea. There's plenty of fanfics, so it could have it's own board.

Bad.
I agree with RP. Then we'd defeat the purpose of a Legends forum. Maybe in the Dark Forest we could have stickys of other Nick GAS shows, but giving it it's own board would be a little too much for a Legends-themed board.
-
This might be a bad idea to some (or a lot of people), but I once saw a forum with a subforum dedicated to "Personal Blog Threads" and stuff like that, where people can get things off their chest as well. It might cause flaming, so I dunno. What do you think?

IDK, TBF. It sounds like an okay idea. However, I'd PERSONALLY not want this forum to degenerate into something like MySpace or Twitter.
-
Alright. I see your point; that might not be such a good idea.
With a new season of My Family's Got GUTS and BrainSurge coming, I wonder if we should convert the Ice Crag into a full-fledged Nick gameshow forum. We have one forum totally dedicated to non-Legends Nick gameshows, why not have it be dedicated to all of them?
-
I think it would work. The Ice Crag was always a little bit quiet; I don't see any harm in expanding its focus a little bit.
-

Agreed. It doesn't hurt to try to get more activity in that forum.
-
It seems like an interesting idea. Ed is already on board, but I want to get Renegade's opinion on it first before we change the Ice Crag over.
-
This is just an idea, but since TBF said he's gonna make GUTS fanfics, maybe we could split "The Swamp" up a little bit. A new forum for fan-created Nick GaS stuff could be made, and combined with The Ice Crag to form a new category. And then leave the Swamp with just The Dark Forest and the Jester's Court again.
-
Can you make a forum within a forum, Phantom? Maybe make it a subsection of the GaS forum if you can.
-
Please allow my brain an hour or two to process this suggestion. There are (as always) quite a few ways we could do this.
-
Is the processing finished? :wink:
I wonder if that's going to be a good idea, because GUTS fanfics seem to be waaaaay harder to write than Legends fanfics and apparently I'm the only who likes the idea of writing GUTS fanfics, so...it might be a bit quiet.
-
Maybe we could make banner ads that we could post on our signatures to advertise this site.
-
Updated the first post a bit. If there are any mods (you can look here (http://http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/)) you would like to see installed on the board, suggest it here.
-
Could the skin of the last layout be enabled as an option? I'm honestly a bit disoriented by the new layout with the same skin as the old board...
EDIT: I take that back, seeing as FIBlack was actually the only thing that enabled the special characters. In fact, it looks like a lot more coding was jumbled this time around... ^^;
-
Hey Admins, can we get the link chain to appear on the bottom of the Individual thread pages as well like on the old site?
BTW, the "link chain" is the One that goes (for this thread anyway) "Phantom's Temple > Temple Gates (info) > The Moat > New Ideas\Feature Requests" at the top of the page before the first post of each page.
-
Can you guys bring back the arcade and shop?? Those were awesome!
Sorry for bumping the thread :(
-
I was wondering if there could maybe possiblely be skins of each of the six teams, Olmec and Kirk Fogg.
-
I've been wanting to make skins for each team for a while now, actually.
-
Yeah, that would be pretty cool. I would especially love a Purple Parrot themed skin. :D
-
What happened to the arcade and store??
-

I think they had to be removed because they were causing site downtime. I hated to see those two things go, but they had to go because of site outages.
-

It has been a while since we last touched this topic. Did that plan for the six skins get shot down with the recent crash we had not that long ago?
Also, looking at this topic, TMH seems kind of harsh. I get why he's doing that, but maybe he could've been a little easier on users like TAW.
And LOL kamehameha. :lol:
-
TMH is an honest person who speaks his mind. I appreciated his honestly and I respected him for what he said. Sometimes you just need to have thick skin. And if he was harsh, it was because people just weren't following the rules.
As far as the skin thing goes, I have no idea. TSM probably forgot about starting that.
-
Edited my post above. The skins aren't necessary, but they'd be kind of cool. Question is, are they worth it? Would they cause downtime like the arcade did? Again, it really isn't that big of a deal.
-
Didn't TSM make skins for every team color not too long ago? I remember him using a Purple Parrot :oops: one at least. :oops:
-

Yep, the best one. ;) :mrpurple:
-

Nope, he only made the Purple Parrots one.
I was kinda hoping for a Blue Barracudas one.
-
You guys can always suggest some themes you want. Just look here (http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?action=search;version=68), and if you see anything you like, post it here.
-
Nothing really stood out. I like this theme.
-
It's been a long time coming, but the team themes are here! Check them out!
-
Oh, thank you! :mrpurple:
Really, thank you for putting the time and effort into doing this. I'm enjoying the Purple Parrot theme quite well right now (obviously). The only problem I see is that I can't view "Who's Online". I know I can see the users that are currently active at the bottom of the home page, but I can't see WHEN they were last active and where they are/what they're doing. Not too big of a deal, but one that you might want to look into somewhere down the road.
-
Yes, thanks so much for the skins! They all look great. :mrpurple:
-

Except for the Red Jaguars of course. Gross! :oops: :oops: :oops:
J/K! :mrpurple:
-
Also, I must add that the "Info Panel" at the top right is quite unique. I'm liking this. ;)

Yeah, that's something I need to figure out. For now, you can go here: http://phantomstemple.us.to/index.php?action=who (http://phantomstemple.us.to/index.php?action=who)
EDIT: Just found out that the link is in the info panel dropdown.

Thanks for the Blue Barracudas theme, TSM.
IT LOOKS AWESOME!!!!
