Well guys i have a lot of questions and ideas. I didn't wanna keep making different threads so i just crammed my ideas into one. Here I go.

Suggestion 1
The Profile Deleter


I have found out that ghost accounts are not really a problem but why even use that much space for something that's not being used. That's why we should add the profile delete button. If anyone wants to leave AG they would know about their profile and delete it.

Suggestion 2
Armatar Creator


Their are many softwares for creating different things but I'm talking about armatars. Their should be some kind of software that we could use to create our OWN armatars. That software would only let us go so far, that means we can't get pictures of the internet. Pictures will be installed in the software and then you can get creative.

Suggestion 3
User Search


The user search should definitely be added to AG. I think it's wrong to just add someone as a friend just as a link to go to their profile. That's why it would be easier to just search up their name.

Suggestion 4
Improved Store


I know the Ag store is successful but why have a store if you have hardly anything to sell. I think Ag should improve their inventory with stuff that's more common to this date. NOT STICKERS.

Suggestion 5
Profile Sidebar


The profile sidebar will be on the right side of AG whenever you are logged in. It will show your friends list your favorite games and your comments. I find this easier then going back to your profile page over and over.

Suggestion 6
Profile Creator

This will let you edit your profile with already uploaded stuff. This stuff would be backgrounds, fonts, and etc. Their will me a memory limit to your profile. Such as 2 megabytes,


Whatcha think?

Instead of noticying the mods..
Not sure if I find it good or bad, though, but I have seen it on other forums.

Suggestion 2
Armatar Creator

No...

Suggestion 3
User Search

There is a method of just writing armorgames.com/user/name..

Suggestion 4
Improved Store

Come up with ideas and someone to make the stuff cheap.

I will have to say no to the two last ones for one reason: Is it really needed?
One of them is just because you don't want to make a tab with your profile, or something.. Not a problem.
The other, well, no... Again, not needed at it is, might cause lag, and I see programming annoyance..

I agree with 4 and 6

1. Well i remember i quit armor games and i rejoined. I'm sure this happened to allot of people. Even though they have like 210 000 users and like 70% of them quited probably.

2.Armor games is a unique site and they want to be unique.

3.I'm not sure if this is a good idea because its really simple to go to your friends account. Maybe a thread search will be better.

5.I don't think anyone should be so lazy.

i don't laziness is a problem with this mattt15, it about it being easier.
And Cenere i think its easier to search a user name instead of writing a whole web address.

Suggestion 1: Sounds fine.


Suggestion 2: Is ridiculous. If we could create our own armatars why would anyone even get APs?? I think if AG was to implement an armatar customization feature they could have certain details/features useable after you get a certain amount of APs. Imo I think that would be MUCH cooler, because people would still be motivated to earn APs.


Suggestion 3: I don't think I understand fully what you mean.....lol.


Suggestion 4: Is something AG should definitely look into. Merch can be a very good thing, but we'd need some awesome designs!


Suggestion 5: Is it really that much of a hassle click once to get to your profile?


Suggestion 6: This isn't myspace or facebook, sorry. I just don't think it's that necessary to make your profile look "cool". If AG does implement this maybe have certain backgrounds, fonts, etc. unlock-able after earning certain amount of APs.

Pffft! I usually just search my sitebar, if I need a user I have visited before. Either that, or randomly find them in the forums.

The searchbar does not work anyway, I wonder if it ever will.

I'm going out a limb to say this, but I think that AGs goal is to put awesome games on their site. Not to have the "coolest" looking flash gaming site.

AG attracts most of it's users by having AG exclusives on some of the best game around. While looking "kool" is important, it's not near as important as bringing the best flash games on the web here. I'm sure they'll add some new cosmetic features eventually, but for now I think they can live without having their profiles &quotimped" and whatnot.

1. What if you quit AG delete your profile.. but like a month later you decide to come back.

2. If you could upload your own armatars then the website would turn into a mini myspace or facebook.

3. No, it's not that hard to click your name.. and then click another name on your profile.

4. Yes, I think there should be some more items included in the store.

5. No, if you are too lazy too scroll down then...

6. No, again if AG does this it will become more of a myspace or facebook.

Suggestion 1
Yes but it could be abused I would hate it if my account got deleted by accident.
Suggestion 2
Nust no.
Suggestion 3
Google is fine and you can tye their name in the bar thing.

Suggestion 4
It would be cool to have more stuff bu I'm not sure what sales figures are like now.

Suggestion 5
Profile Sidebar
That could be useful but not a necessity I keep mine open on a tab anyway.
Suggestion 6
No it would lead to problems and I like the nice uniform look of profiles here.

1: I agree with everyone else on this (that's against it)
2: You can just make your own and submit it for the next holiday armatar contest. It's not the same as your suggestion but it's good enough isn't it?
3: Agree with Cenere.
4: Who buys stuff from the store? Why would they have more products if nothing is being bought anyway?
5: I just keep a separate tab of my profile open. It doesn't cause a problem.
6: Same reply for Suggestion 1.

plokkey, the only reason I think that nobody buys from the store is because there is nothing to buy....


Obviously merch is not their main concern at the moment, but I think as far as long term goals flash gaming sites are going to get into it. Other sites have similar threads about making t-shirts, etc. but as far as I know no site has said they'll do it just yet. I'd love to see this happen, because I'd totally buy one! :]

Suggestions 1

Then some person may accidentally delete his account, or some enemy of his/her delete it for them, which is quite tragic if you are an active user.

Suggestions 2

Armatars have a distinct feel, you know what I mean? AG won't be AG that much if you can lump any picture on it. The armatars are called armatars for a reason, unlike calling it profile picture or something along those lines.

Suggestions 3

I do want a user search, BUT, and easy thing would be just to scroll down to the bottom of the forum main page. All online users are there, and you can talk to them.

Suggestions 4
Er, how did you know it's successful. Plus the cost of shipping might be more expensive than the item itself in some cases. Anyway, it might be hard to supply objects like shirts. One or two people might want them, but think of the trouble Dan and the mods have to go through.

Suggestions 5

How big can your screen get? A profile page at the side will take up loads of space.

Suggestions 6
If everyone loads up 2 MB, that will be like 400,000 MB. which is 400 GB. Alot of space.
