This!

I would recommend to posters if you know something say it don't tease the board with I got a secret and will only give the information to my buddies. If that is the case text them and don't put the teaser on the board. Take donations to keep the board up and have give aways depending on your level of donations. Example RP key chain, hat, t-shirt ect.. then we can sport our UL/RP gear around town and at sporting events.

This site used to do yearly donations. Not sure why that stopped.

I would def contribute. I imagine running this board is work. And I spend a lot of time on this board. Maybe too much.

Nah, you can't say you spend too much time here until you go at least 5 digits on your post count. 20K maybe.

An instant way to upload pics. I throw up shots from the Swamp and hell i seem like the only one putting up with all the process to do so. Make it very quick to throw up pics and we'll have a much more informed, detailed, engaged group.

Remember the administration reads this board and sometimes implements ideas from this board. Please reply only with serious suggestions.

1. I would like to see a premium pay site built into this site. Keep the current free format but offer a premium site also.

2. Add a like (thumbs up) option to posts if others want to approve of the post message.

3. Monthly RP Zoom meetings or open chat sessions.

4. Figure out a way to turn all the guests and lurkers on this site into actual members.

5. Figure out a way to reach out to all members who haven't posted in over a year and get them back involved.

6. Hold an annual meet and greet for all RP members.

7. Develop a leader board based off of reputation points and/or posts.

8. Develop a Ragin Pagin store.

Right now on RP there is an ignore feature if you would like to not see someone’s comments.

I think a block feature should be added if you would like for someone to not see your comments. You know how there are some trolls that comment but offer nothing to the actual conversation and it’s usually just personal shots and insults? If there were only a feature where you could chose for them not to see your post so you wouldn’t have to see their foolishness. That would be a great addition IMO.

Elaborating on the Thumbs Up/Down thing.....

It would be cool to see monthly and/or yearly awards.....

Most liked posts, Most prodigious poster, Biggest Thread, Most prodigious Thread starter, etc., etc.

Bring Back signatures.

Allow the members to vote out/ban one member/year.

We used to be allowed to have signatures. People would put pics in there. Some would put links in there. I believe Turbine had a problem with certain people abusing that privilege with inappropriate stuff, and it went away.

It's a shame because it was a neat way to share a little about yourself to others. I enjoyed seeing what other people would have as a signature.

Love the Most/Biggest ideas. RP Year in Review.

The vote out one member would be pretty epic. Maybe to cushion the blow, it would just be something like "read-only for a month".

Yeah but a Wood Pecker may start off barking on the wrong tree but he always gets to the core of the solution.

Sorry, had to get a little sappy on you.

Great recommendation.
Uploading a picture is not a simple process.

With all these comments being said, this place is still top notch.

THANK YOU, TURBINE!

Not really most folks don’t have all of these peoples cell numbers. I’m talking more like unfriending on Facebook. When don’t want someone to see you, you can block them.
