heyy every1

well ive been thinking and well i know this is a support forum

but seeing as there is a graphic section and all

i reckon we should have a sotw

HOW IT CAN BE ORGANISED

  • We have a childboard of graphics for sotw
  • Set it to reply only
  • Each week I can post a new SOTW event
  • After i have posted the event each person can get a chance to reply with there image
  • Each week i will also set out a certain theme which will need to be used EG. the future - each member will need to ceate a sig having to do witht he future and at the end of that week i create a new topic with a poll putting all the entrie's in there and we vote for the best
  • at the end of the voting i will announce the sotw for that week and maybe we can organse a little medal or somrthing for them
  • i will the create a new topic the next day for week 2 SOTW and we will follow these steps again

EXAMPLE OF SOTW

this is an example of how i would set it out for the FIRST week:



heyy every1

welcome to the very first smf SOTW

In order to enter please reply to this topic with your entry ( this is a example dont really reply )

THEME: the theme for this weeks sotw will be the future so try and do the best with the future. a eg of the future would be maybe like a flying car or perhaps a space ship.

RULES:

  • Please only reply with your sotw do not reply saying woow that looks great nice job. if u wnat a comment post it back in graphics section
  • Please do your best witht eh theme you have been giving we dont want any 5 minute jobs
  • Please dont spam the topic with your sotw u only need to submit it once

Goodluck every 1 and please do your best



Thats exactly how i would sety it out as

so smf please support my idea on sotw as i think it wuld be great for every1 to show there stuff.

if possible i would like to set it up ( with your permission )

and be the hoster of this evbent for the support

any spamming of sotw or brwking of the rules will automatically disqualify you from that weeks sotw

so SMF please support my idea

thanks legend 1234

I don't think so.  This is not a graphics forum, this is support for your forum operation. The graphics section already takes too much time to moderate what with the fighting, rudeness and just general spam.

You have your own graphics forum and that is the place for something such as you proposed.

It would save us no time at all.
Being a Global Mod means "global"  not ignore this or that board.
Plus there are already enough "cooks in the kitchen" in our opinion.

Although we always appreciate suggestions I do have to say I agree
with Laundry Lady.    It feels to me that a Support forum is not a place
for this idea.

Most of our members come here for information and don't stay here looking for conversation and spamming the boards. 

They come with their support questions and when the problem is resolved, they go back to their own forums until they need us again.

That is why we do not need a lot of Moderators.

They also do not all login daily.    We can handle it all fine.
Look at the list at the bottom of the forum.   I think we can
handle the just over 100 a day who do login here  Wink

Sibyl and I have both explained to you why we do very well with the Moderators we have.  As long as everyone is using this as the support forum it is supposed to be and not a hangout, everything goes well.
