It was also confirmed that the castle is larger than SotN's.

Also it seems that on the first playthrough, ten hours is expected.

How about MSN and Yahoo screen names in the profiles?

I've been meaning to make this thread for awhile now, thought I'd do it someday.

Anyways, yeah this could be posted in Help / Suggestions, but I thought I'd get more feedback here, and others might share suggestions also.

These are just ideas that I have for mainly ||bass, Kasumi, and others. I'm assuming it's no harm to make such a thread like this.

1. Announcements
There was a thread posted awhile back suggesting that announcements show up on the index. From there I came up with this idea. Announcements show up on the index when they are "NEW" for a user, and until that user clicks on the Announcements through the index, it will show up as NEW. Like PM's, only once you've read it, the whole table for Announcements on the index will go away. This way, I think we'd get more people reading Announcements. Maybe for guests Announcements would just always appear on the index?

2. Post box / Posting expansions
Some of these ideas have been brought up several times before.

Post Options; the ability to post, and easily check boxes that could disable, HTML, your Layout, Smilies, and &commands, and maybe other things. Easier than having to post, then go back and edit your post to take out your Layout, or disable these things.

Also, adding the spoiler tag to the toolbar might be conveinent. And, possibly making the spoiler tag, an actual tag that could allow users to customize it with their own CSS, or whatnot.

Another thing, would be when posting a link, say http://board.acmlm.org/whatup.php , it would automatically be created a link. I've seen this done in phpBB boards before. Personally, it's no problem for me to quickly make a 'a href' link tag for links, but I'm sure we can all agree, that there have been people in the past and probably will continue to be, people who have no idea what HTML even is; and we all know how annoying it is to edit someones post and change a url to an actual link (it sounds simple, but ... I've seen in the past most people find it annoying ).

Making the blockquote more specific. Right now quoting someone or something consists of a handful of tags, and it's sometimes tedious. I've found myself opening a new window and then just copying and pasting all of the tags needed to quote something. So, it would be nice if that were simplified.

A final idea on posting, would be the abilty to highlight text, and then apply tags to them. The tags would then appear on each side of the highlighted text, beginning with a opening tag, then a closing tag at the end. This is, again seen on phpBB boards and I think would be nice to have here. Again, it's not impossible to just manually type in the tags yourself, but it would be a nice addition to have, and would quickin posting.

That's it for now (from me, I can't remember the other ideas I had at the moment). Suggestions, and feedback are welcome.

I probably should have brought this up before, but...

For the 1.B [new] themes, I think it might be kind of a nice idea to allow users to customize what links appear under "My Places".

I mean there isn't a whole lot of unlisted pages on the index or anything, but maybe it would be a good idea? I guess.

I forgot one: Having check boxes to disable smilies, board tags, HTML and stuff at the bottom, when posting and editing a message... Something similar to Ogre's hack.
