Post here on stuff you would like to see on the TJA forums. I for one would like to see a who's online thing and maybe a shoutbox for those who have trouble using the Java IRC channel. If that fails them, maybe the shoutbox wont. Meh ideas

There is a little server status button on some of the servers. Although it always leads to nothing.

I meant to fix that. Never did get around to it. :(

How about an awards page that is within everyone's profile page. Like medals for donating to JA and/or event winnings. Medals can be personalized or w/e; doesn't have to look the same for everyone.

Also have a Instructors office within every instructors profile where stuff about classes and such can be separate from the other comments. More of a personal inquiry area between student and instructor. Yes you can do it on the class comments area but, it may be better to do it on their profile. I'm assuming everyone looks at their profile for new comments, so it seems fitting.

more to come


Award page is not neccesary since we have Hall of Fame. As for information about event winnings etc - i think everyone who won something and wants to show that to everyone wrote it on their profile or in a signature.

The second idea is quite cool though, if you could straight to the classes page from the certain instructor's profile. Maybe it could even show only the classes that particular instructor holds or is invited to be a guest in. However, since the number of classes is as small as the number of people who attend them (thats sad ofcourse)... i believe it is not worth the time implementing this feature.

On the personal pages, sometimes you like want to see like your first comments or something. I know you can just type it in the URL, but that can be a bit cumbersome. Like having a quick bar to go to comment pages might be nice. (eg "Go to Last, first, pg 1, 2 ,3 etc)


yeah thats one of those features that are useful in every simple forum and we dont have it.

That's just a tiny thought though, the forums serve their purpose well.

Hey , I think would be cool something like a friends page . for every profile is a page . and in that page the owner of the profile could put there the name of his/her friends. So if we wanna post on a friends profile we just pick him/her from there . What do you think ?

Most people include this info in their signature if they want to in the first place.
