So you may have seen the title and thought this was another one of those megathreads that you have to post in if you have this particular type of suggestion, but it's not! It's really just a little poke from us forum mods to motivate players to think about the forums and how we can make them more approachable and welcoming to the community. If you have a forum-related suggestion, you can either post it here or make a separate thread for it, whichever you prefer!

To kick this off, I have a few suggestions from our community, plus Jelly and I...

Implemented!

Newbie Giveaway Section
Fairly self-explanatory! Giveaway threads tend to get buried in the Dealers Den.

Clubs and Societies
Creating a space where members with similar interests can meet, discuss, and form communities.

Polls
A lot of forums allow users to make polls, and I think they'd be both helpful for feedback purposes, and fun for conversation purposes. Maybe this goes without saying, but preferably only logged-in users would be able to vote in polls. I understand that one of the biggest cons of polls is that they encourage a lack of discussion, since you can just click a choice and be done with it. My proposal for fixing this, particularly for important polls, is to introduce a rule that all voters must leave a reply stating their reasoning for their vote, otherwise their vote won't be counted. Of course this rule doesn't have to be used for every poll; it's up to the poll owner, but it's a possible solution.
