1) Baltop and ranks // Player lookup page 2) Punishment page 3) top poster and staff page 3) portal page?
I really like your idea for a /baltop page! It would be cool to connect the ranks and economy to a page on the site so we can see rankings of players -- I feel that would increase the competition. Could you elaborate on the punishment page? I like the idea of having a place for staff and top posters, too, but I don't feel it should be a page. Maybe a sidebar or section on the forums page? Also, I've looked at portal pages but I don't really like them; the main part of the website are the forums so I think that it should be right there when loading up the site. Thanks for posting and your suggestions! Very appreciated!
I agree with that! Some Pages could be like a sub page. [drop down] The punishment page would have Ban / Punishment timer and see who issued the punishment some ban plugins have this built in. [Advanced Bans]
I know another server had a website based database which detailed what punishments were given out, what staff gave them, why they were given, and how long they lasted. That would also help the staff stay connected as far as different disciplinary actions that were given to different players so every staff knows how much trouble each user has been in. Perhaps something like that could be considered?
A staff page should definitely be on the website so you can easily see all the staff members. The Top Poster page isn't something I'd like to see again. There used to be a Top Poster and Top Likes lists, but at some points they ended up being mostly competetive to see who could get more posts. Butters and Hippie were often fighting over the first place and people wanted to get on that top 5 list. This led to many unecessary posts. I feel like they don't contribute to much good. Sorry Butters.
We will be looking into adding a tab for baltop / top played, punishments, and a staff page as I feel like that would be very useful for not only players but staff as well.
