[FORUMS] Adding editors to your thread 8 years 6 months ago #216576

Server Name:

The Zarp Forums

Suggestion Title:

Adding a feature which allows you to add people to your thread; who in turn can then edit your thread.

How would it benefit the server:

This suggestion is of course aimed at all threads, but mainly at threads run by 2 or more people, like Gang Threads. It would help out a ton because if the original poster of the thread isn't available at the time; someone they designated to be able to edit the thread can edit the thread if needed.

Potential Issues/Exploits:

Someone who you have added to your "Edit List" can perhaps abuse his/her powers and edit the thread to something the OP doesn't want - but of course we have staff available to deal with them.

Additional notes:

Yes, we do have staff members available to edit the threads but there's such a copious amount of these threads which could use this feature; the staff's job would become a lot easier if it was added.

Yes, I'm aware Hitman has made this before. I was in TS with him and he gave me the permission to remake it as a more detailed thread since his last suggestion wasn't ever reviewed.

This has been suggested before, and with a little digging in the deeper side of the forums; you might find out if it was denied.	Studio Banter Offline Marvelous Boarder ❤️ Posts: 14007 Thanks received: 5848 Karma: -60

I know it has, it wasn't denied or accepted; not even reviewed.

Hitman Jerry was the one who suggested it. It hasn't been denied or accepted. Still believe this feature is useless. the staff's job would become a lot easier if it was added. The staff's job is as it is.	Studio Banter Offline Marvelous Boarder ❤️ Posts: 14007 Thanks received: 5848 Karma: -60

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, I just believe (and many others) that it would be very beneficial to the Forum users.

You can also check the original thread, I edited it with credit and more detail on who I have worked with on this suggestion.

You're going to be waiting a long time then.

Apologies, next time when reviewing a suggestion, I will support it like hell is coming down.

Let me expand on my "opinion" if you're thinking that I'm always negative on a suggestion.

Why is it needed?
I only ever saw one example which are gang threads and I understand that that is a positive. But other sections?

Announcements - Only Globals and higher have access so no need.

General Discussions - See no need.
Zarp Competitions - See no need.

Server Issues/Suggestions - See no need.
Introductions - See no need.
Help - See no need.

Semi-Serious RP - Gang threads.
Trouble in Terrorist Town - See no need.
Deathrun - See no need.
Bhop - See no need.

Report Abuse - See no need.
Server Applications - See no need.
Appeals - See no need.

Forum Games - See no need.
Graphics Showcase - It really just depends if there's two or more people working.

The ideal I'm trying to point out is that it's not needed to be put in if only for two or three times that it could be used.

Then again, for example Server Applications, someone can bribe someone else to make his application perfect. As you said yourself "Someone who you have added to your "Edit List" can perhaps abuse his/her powers and edit the thread to something the OP doesn't want" - That person can then delete the thread during the meeting.

I sincerely don't see the want for this.

I support what Blocked said, It would make things easier, mostly for gangs but it can work for other stuff aswell!

If you can give me at least three more for that "It can work for other stuff as well!" which haven't been mentioned above and excluded the gang threads, then I might change my view.

Deathrun Group Threads
Graphic Threads
Help threads which are in progress
Staff lists
Team Threads (e.g: CS:GO Teams
Guides which could use improvement
Giveaway threads ran by 2 or more people
Meeting outcomes
Forum Games ran by 2 or more people

What if it was like the "Thank you" list on a post. So you have
"Editors"
"Recently edited"
