[General] Suggestions Box!

Zarhon wrote:1) A less-clunky search bar would be my first suggestion. The current search bar only looks up and lists thread names/titles for your word search (and only if it's exactly that word - any miss-type or part of a larger word is ignored), and merely highlights that word within the threads listed. Options to look for words within the threads themselves (for instance, to find a specific question in the "ask a question" thread, or every instance of a word or several words), or more "specified" searches (of a specific person, date, within a specific thread, etc...) that most forums have would be appreciated - It's really hard to find info that was posted when a thread turns huge (which happens in pretty much every PbP, when info has to be reviewed by either players or DMs), and the current search bar is outright useless for that (and difficult to use for finding threads as well, unless you have perfect memory of what it's called!).

2) Also would be nice to increase the limit of pages a thread can get before it auto-locks and "splits" into a new, same-named thread without warning, or make it stop doing that entirely - it's really confusing/annoying for the PbPs when it happens, and leaves the "first poster" of that split thread the "owner" of the thread (so only they can edit the title and such), rather than whoever started the thread.

I'll look into something that might provide those alerts early, though.

Like this is Algerian, which isn't listed but apparently works. At least it does on my side.

• Merge Boons and Destinies into a single section.  Neither were especially large and Boons seemed to be mostly discontinued even before WL hit.
  
• Merge Traits and Items into a single section.  Their roles really merged over time and as stated with Boons & Destinies, their sections aren't that large.
  
• Unsticky Items - The Playtest Document! and Come Visit the Monster Arena! due to their functions being obsolete.
  
• Unsticky and lock Think you found something broken or severely overpowered? Share it here! since we now have the Official Errata Suggestion/Discussion Thread.
