How about making a poll feature. (Maybe it exists...)

It does exist, just not for non-mods/admins.

If you need a poll made, just bug ask an appropriate member (see above).

This might turn out to be a hugely unpopular idea, but how about favoriting posts? I wouldn't like to see them raise the "status" of a poster or anything - just a little click to indicate to the poster that you liked their post, for both the poster and others to see. The way I imagine it is there'd be a "Favorite this post" button in a corner of the post, next to which would be the number of favorites it's gotten. Clicking that number shows who favorited that post and when.

Also, and I know I've brought this up before, but a "remove from activity" button for the Unread and Replies page would be good - a checkbox you could tick next to a thread title on either of those pages, and then press a "Remove selected from activity" button at the top of the page, so that you don't keep seeing this thread pop up in your Unread posts or Replies page.

No thanks, I'm not implementing a karma system so people can rub eachother inappropriately.  As nice as it sounds this isn't the best place to do it.

Could we make individual threads for discussions of each of the games.

Probably not, since game threads come and go as they will, and they'd get real long real fast.

No idea how I could implement it without completely redoing the unread replies functionality to support ignoring threads.

Guess I'll take that as a "no" then.

Isn't that basically the same as publicly posting your e-mail address?  I can't say that sounds like a good idea...

But there are already places and threads to discuss any of the games in; I don't see why we need specific threads for each type of game.

Can we make threads specifically for the PC-98 games so that people can talk about PC-98 related things and rage at how hard lunatic Raymoo is in LLS, things like that?

HME has a thread exclusively for rageposting. Use that.

If it's a discussion directly related to something specific about one of the games then that's ok but just PC98 rage/congrats/etc threads no, use the existing catchall threasd.

Why does there need to be a distinction between a general Touhou game thread, and a general Touhou PC98 game thread?  Unless it's something that only applies to a specific game, just use the general threads.

I don't know if this is possible, but what about giving members the choice to see what skin they see in CPMC? Then if there are ever skin-switching shenanigans in the future, those who don't like it can change back while those who enjoy it can keep viewing the temporary skin and everyone's happy. Plus, I've never been particularily fond of the sudden switch to white upon entering CPMC, so being able to view it in the normal skin would be pretty neat.

Feel free to punch me if this was brought up like 20 times when people were complaining about the communist skin or something, because I pretty much missed that whole ordeal.

My post in mod forum about themes

I don't allow the members to choose their own themes because it's enough of a pain in the ass to get one good theme together.  Having to debug issues across multiple themes and having to make sure changes I make don't break them is just a nightmare.

I don't think people realize how much time it actually took me to get that CPMC theme together and working properly.  All I did was take http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=2072 and tweaked a few colors, it couldn't have possibly been that hard right?  Wrong, it took me about 3 hours to get it to where it is now.  And I wasn't even doing anything fancy, just changed the colors, and I wasn't even trying to make it look good.

Now imagine me having to do that to every single subforum, while hearing complaints about how x sucks and y needs adjusted, and then having to do that again if I change something in the underlying code.  It's going to be enough of a pain as it is to port the layout changes to the RC4 update I was hoping to do (but now I lack the motivation) this weekend.

Been talk of this in CPMC, but it may as well go through the official channels...
------> How about "Option to see original usernames instead of display names?" It could be a cute little check box~
But then again, it might be a hassle to get this to work?
So... Yeah.

Hassle, and IMHO putting it in the profile is good enough.
