1 - Thats a bit illogical. Some people find the site boring and will always do so regardless of the site. You find it boring, I do not. Thats the how that will always turn out.
2 - We are always open for new ideas. Thats why this section exists. But the main thing people forget is that not all new ideas are good and 99.9999% of them can easily be seen to not workout in the long run.
3 - And who would decide what is a good or bad idea? The members? Through a vote? Popularity contest then? Or by the staff? But then it becomes a bias decision right? Good ideas are subjective. We may like it while you, the community may not, and the other way around.
4 through 8 - I don't see the point. You can already suggest things in concrete in open threads in this section which we regularly evaluate and screen through. Why would this whole big thing be needed anyway? Seems a waste of time and resources when you can already suggest all you want and have it screened by us. And again, why? You want to give an idea, give it. No one gets punished for suggesting things as long as no rule is broken. So I fail to see that this grand idea of yours is anything other than what we actually already have. The prize and award wouldn't bring better ideas or magical solutions. Quite the contrary.
Thats my opinion anyways. What do I know right?
No, I think everyone's ideas matter. Even though I don't enjoy reading what you wrote I MUST give respect to your idea since you are another member of this Site!
We could have a poll to see if Nb Likes this idea.
I understand you may not find it boring but JUST believe me, I KNOW hundreds of Members that find it Boring but do not say anything since they think the mods or the admins will dismiss the thread and close it or they just think they are going to get an infraction! That is why I am trying to cooperate with you guys (while trying to not get this thread closed)
Nearly every thread or an idea has a bad side to it.
IN my opinion while it is important to see the bad side to an idea and balace it out it is also important to see the good side and Concentrate MAINLY on that.
Just a quick example, lets say No mods ever existed and someone said they wanted one, another person could replay "Yh but what if they overuse their power" this is true but bringing Mods in has more of good than bad!
EDIT: I believe right now a big thread should be created, on top of Nb with Purple writing it should say something like "Give your Idea to improve Nb
Here" the here leading to the big thread, I understand members can post suggestions any time BUT a lot of the members just keep in the bottom area of the site and don't really look at the suggestion section while still wanting the Site to change, SO I think having this, it will be hard to miss and make the whole Community know that Nb wants new IDEAS!
