SRL Archive - Discussions and Debates

Heya, there's a few changes I'd like to see to certain ranks & forums. Please give me some input on what you agree with or don't agree with, or if you've anything you'd also like to see change do post here and I'll add it to this list.

Keep in mind, these are only my opinions, they are not concert, they're just what I believe would be practical changes.

Forum suggestions section
-Someone had suggested this not too long ago. I believe it was suggested by just a registered user, thus it didn't get so much attention. I personally think it'd be nice to have a place where users can share suggestions on changes they'd like to see on the forums, or atleast Members / Jr Members and above if it calls for it.

Public Scripts & OSR Scripts moderators
-Those selected to moderate and maintain the public scripts section should absolutely have the same power in the Old School Scripts section. There's really a need there for active moderation yet as far as I can see only Super Moderators & Administrators can maintain this section at this time. I suggest all current moderators of the Public Scripts section as well as SRL Developers have the ability to moderate this section in addition to the Public Scripts section. In addition, perhaps also the team appointed to maintaining the SRL-OSR library.

Categories for OSR Scripts section
-This speaks for itself. There's quite a few scripts stacking up in the newly added Old School Scripts section and honestly there needs to be origination here. It's obvious OSR will draw a lot of attention and, I assume, will constantly draw in more scripts. It will only grow from here on out, so before it really gets crowded in there with random scripts scattered around let's make categories exactly like what we have in the Public Scripts section.

Additional sections in OSR
-I suggest a Research & Development section for OSR

Small tweak to the Help and Tutorials section
-Because tutorials may be made but differ between RS2 and OSR I suggest an optional tag to be added to the top of a thread title, choosing between "(none)", "[RS2]", "[All]" and "[OSR]". It's not really high priority but it would clarify between various tutorials posted.

OSR Scripts added to the Quick Links
-That section receives a lot traffic, let's make it easily accessible just as the Public Scripts section is.


I had more but that's all I can think of for the time being. If I remember any more or if others have suggestions I'll add them here.

I like the public script and OSR script moderator idea, seems like there could always be use for having appropriate users tracking those sections.

I also like the categories and additional sections for OSR, as it could help further learning and activity in the respected sections. I think, however, it might be ideal to wait until the OSR include is added to the updater (my personal viewpoint added onto your idea :p )

The small tweak to the help and tutorial section and the forum suggestions section I feel indifferent to. (I don't mind them and don't have much really to comment on them :) )

I would be caution on the OSR scripts added to the Quick Links, as I don't think the regular script section is added to the Quick Links (as far as I can tell?) which concerns me in the way that it could cause differing opinion to users to play/bot/script/etc. on OSR rather than EoC.

I enjoyed reading the thread and seeing these suggestions,
As always, thanks for the nice work !

Cheers,

I too, also, agree with all of your suggestions Flight :)

Yeah I have to agree with everything you have said :)

Nice thoughts!

Ditto!

Thanks for taking the time to think through these suggestions and present them in a clear way Flight, I think these are useful suggestions that should be implemented :)

I agree on all the sugestions :) I do believe there is already a forum suggestion section here although it is hard to find sometimes!

Thanks for the feedback everyone. :) @Hobbit & @Wizzup?, how do these ideas sound to you?

Support!

@Hobbit
Few other suggestions from me:

SRL Members' Goodies section
This was removed a while back :(

Freebie category in Black Market


Reason for these two is that I got membership on a few sites where there're private releases, and I'd like to share it with the comm.

TBH I haven't had time to really go through it yet, I have subscribed to the thread though for when I do have time to go through it.

Fair enough, I'd just like the suggestions to get some input from the high(er)/(est) ups.
