Or are you proposing that the private forums should be made public?
They were at one time recommendable, when the rec count existed but due to abuse [I believe] and the pointlessness of it, the option was done away with.

even if it were some sort of novelty rec system were you could take away rec's for a bad post...anything.

I'd be for that and anything else that would allow clan and/or club pages to be more customizable--visual backdrops, different names for things, whatever. different options for layout of the information on the page. a different banner across the top that members would see to make visual reference to the fact that you are "inside" and not looking at the "public" page that non-members see. right now customization is limited to name, picture and that one line description.

or "I agree" or "you're a crimson-cheeked baboon"...
just post your agreement/disagreement and call it whatever *you* like, you know, like a conversation? I would think people would be less afraid to post their real opinions in a private forum, so a faceless rating system probably would be less necessary than in the public forums.

anyway how annoying is it to scroll down a thread and come across a bunch of small meaningless posts like 'i disagree' 'i agree' 'you have a big head'
i'm not sure exactly what i want, maybe even a joke rating system for forum posts in private.

Originally posted by trev33After thinking about it, I think maybe some kind of fun novelty rec system for private forums might be fun. Make it ultra customizable so the clan leaders can add a little "inside joke" to the private forums. Yeah, I could go along with that.
