    I think it would be beneficial. At present the game is highly separate from the forum. A lot of people who play the game don't post on the forum and a lot who post on the forum don't play the game.

    Trying to merge the two together would help keep people on the site longer and would, in turn, make people more interested in staying.

    I'm just talking simple things. Such as when getting a score on the game it could have an option to 'brag about this score on the forum'. Clicking that instantly takes you to the 'create a new thread' part of the brag board. Or even 'save this score as a screenshot' so you can then instantly post multiple images of everything you did that day.

    The opposite could then be true on the forum. When people brag about scores there could be links saying 'think you can beat this score?' that would take you straight to that song in the game to play.

    I have no idea if this is feasible, coding-wise, as I have no knowledge of coding. It just sounds good in my head in making everything seamless and integrated.

              Removing or lightening TGB gatekeeping

              Consistent and active moderation

              New users

              I like TRD's integration theme. The site shouldn't have such discrete chunks, that's sooooooo 2004

              EDIT: STOP LABELING POSTS AS EDITED IF YOU EDIT WITHIN TWO MINUTES

              I edit my posts 1-5 times on average right after posting them and the edit message makes me super self conscious about it

                        The ability to manually edit the forum colors & forum background to whatever image/color you like.

                          -Mod jiz
                          -Stop locking every thread that's even remotely considered to be "shitposting" or moving them to TGB
                          -Unlock the TGB sticky in chit chat or make a new one
                          -Wet t-shirt contest
                          -FFR Chopped competition
                          -food and cooking forum
                          -poster of the month award
                          -get joe rogan to be a regular user
                          -embed m1dy or sharpnel songs on every page and have them autoplay and make it so you can't turn them off
                          -motorcycle
                          all of this and also worst poster of the month and get guy fieri to be a regular user

                            I would suggest disabling signatures.

                                is expressing my inability to create a creative signature an act of creativity in and of itself?
