What if we made the new posts section have different sections? So we could find new posts via, projects, user created content, other, etc.
I don't think that the front page thing can handle different sections.

I think what he meant was the New Posts page, having the separate board split apart.  That would prolly be yet another smf mod tho x.x

On the Profile -> Show Posts page, can each post also show its respective rating?

I agree, this should be done.

We really need notifications for when we are up/downvoted.
And you should be able to get notifications on your profile as well as your email, and be able to toggle the two for different types of notifications.
I'm not worried about SOPA creating censorship, that will not stand for long. I'm worried that they'll succeed in stopping piracy!

Just had an idea.  You know how firefox has different channels for updating, with betas/stable releases/etc?
Maybe we could do something like that for OmnomIRC.  People would choose to use the latest version, perhaps by an option in their profile or something.  When it's assured the latest version is stable, it becomes the standard.
This way people could just use the previous stable version of omnom when stuff happens/is changed :)

That would involve keeping several versions online, wouldn't it? But then I guess that's a way to back up, anyway :D

It would be great to see a list, WHEN and WHERE you got a +1 or a -1 because else it's sometimes difficult to find out where you got the latest +1

Keep in mind a lot of these suggestions would probably require SMF mods and not be that easy to do. Not to discourage anyone from making suggestions, (feel free to keep the coming) just keep in mind that some of them they may be difficult to implement.

Yeah, but I think it won't be so hard (We can already see our last posts! Why not our last recieved +1 and -1??)
I think it'll be only a modification of the "latest Posts of this Person"

But, (You're right) I really don't know how hard it will be to make that in reality!

Something I would personally find useful would be an [edit] tag that formats an edit automatically. Might take another forum mod though :/

How about we just see a +-# in the lasts posts page.

Well the problem with that is that if someone downrates about 100 of your posts or if the forums is very busy one day and several people change your rating, you'll be spammed like there's no tomorrow
Keep in mind a lot of these suggestions would probably require SMF mods and not be that easy to do. Not to discourage anyone from making suggestions, (feel free to keep the coming) just keep in mind that some of them they may be difficult to implement.
This, which is why many suggestions in the past were not implemented x.x (or not in time before I retire)

That was actually an idea I had a while ago, although indeed it would have been hard to do. I asked the mod author if he could implement this, to no avail.
