// I apologize for any potential repeat ideas in advance
A while back, I decided it would be a good idea to create my own group, just in case I wouldn't be able to in the near future for various reasons. I enjoy the admin controls, but I think what is seen now is only but a smudge of what can be controlled.
For starters, I believe that the Group Discussion get a "make-over" in the sense that the administrator can lock forums (as in lock from everyone BUT the admin -or specified ranks- or even lock off entirely), that certain thread can be pinned to the top, such as when staff decide what the current "Hot topics" are in the main forums. In addition, I believe that players (as well as the admin) should be able to delete or edit/"snip" certain replies to posts to prevent spam, controversy and those treacherous *DOUBLE* posts.
Next, I believe that there should be a way to make certain discussions visible to certain players, or even groups of players.
// Well, this is as far as my imagination can go tonight, but I'll add more ideas as they come!
