Suggestions

We didn't change the layout. We upgraded the software. And no, we can't stop doing that. Software updates are a necessary and important part of keeping the site online and secure.

I meant all the changes since the wipe not just this.

Examples?

I think it would be pretty cool to have a comment section specific to a game itself, not just the sheets.

Now that I think about it, could we have PS1, 2, and 3 all split up into separate sections on TMR?

[Petie]

Dazz and I have been discussing the possibility of splitting up all merged sections. It's likely to happen but I don't have a timeline for it yet.

[Garamonde]

Somewhat relevant: maybe we can kind of set a specific amount of games that a system needs to warrant its own section? Like 15-20 games maybe?

Not that that's much of a worthy suggestion, but I figure it might help to set a rough guideline of sorts.

I've noticed that there's no "mark this section as read" option on mobile. Not heavily necessary but it'd be handy to have.

[Vipershark]

I've actually noticed that myself and have wanted it as a possible addition for a really long time but due to small screen resolutions and needing big areas for pressing, I'm not sure if that's feasible.
It would probably take a whole lot of screwing around with at the very least... I'll try to look into it though

Rather than making new threads every time someone has a birthday, could we have a general thread where we post and celebrate all of the birthdays instead?

[Garamonde]

That's been done before, but we reverted back because honestly, it takes away from the special-ness a lot.

Also, maybe this is just me, but if I were to go into that thread hoping to find a wish or two and not find any, it'd be a little saddening. It's a bit different from not seeing any threads made, I think. Also it'd be a bit harder for people to find their birthday wishes.

That's just my opinion though.

[Mystie]

Yeah, you have a point.

I think it would be pretty cool to have a comment section specific to a game itself, not just the sheets.

Comments on games are now available. If you have access to the icon renovation project though, they won't be visible. This is an unfortunate side effect of the way in which the page works but you'll be able to see and comment on games once all icons have been updated.

This isn't really a suggestion, more of a question, but there isn't a thread for that and I don't think this deserves its own.

Should games like Double Dragon II have the "II" or just "2" in the name? I accepted the game on tSoR and changed the "II" to "2" to stay consistent with the tSR version, but I'm thinking maybe I should have renamed the tSR version instead.

Also, as an actual suggestion, maybe a "general site questions" thread would be a good idea.

Generally it depends on how the game phrases it.

Mortal Kombat II instead of Mortal Kombat 2, but Bayonetta 2 instead of Bayonetta II.

Agreed. I'm all about consistency so I appreciate the name being changed to maintain it across sites but I'm also all about accuracy and I've always been of the opinion that our game titles should reflect the actual names (within reason - the é was dropped feom Pokémon to make the name searchable, for instance).
