This area of the forums is reserved for serious on topic discussions. Keep the threads on the topic of Goal Line Blitz 2!
All forum rules apply here and we will do our best to make sure this and other specific forum areas rules are enforced. We will be far more relaxed on forum rules in the non-specific areas of the forums, like General Discussion or FFA. Use the appropriate forum and you wont have any problems.
If you have a problem with another user, we suggest that you use the ignore feature, instead of lashing out at them in public. This is bad for all parties involved, not just who said what first. If you cannot hold back or use the ignore feature, we will have little sympathy. Take advantage of the abilities we have given you to moderate the forums as much for yourself as possible. This also includes using the Karma Voting (Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down) and reporting posts. If you do not like what was said by a user but don't feel like a ignore is necessary, vote it down. If you feel like they are breaking a major rule, use the report option.
► Suggestions forum rules ◀
1: No joke suggestions.
2. No complaint threads. This is a place to suggest ideas that fix a problem with the game, not a place to identify problems.
3: No duplicate suggestions. If you see one that is similar to your idea then just post in that thread.
4: Don't repost locked suggestions. If you feel a thread shouldn't be locked then PM the mod that locked it.
5: No excessive bumping of suggestions. Repeatedly posting in a thread to keep it at the top may result in a suspension for spam.
∟Consecutive bumps, per day, from a user will be considered excessive.
6: Don't bump old suggestions just to say +1. Try to add something to the discussion.
7: No personal attacks. Constructively criticize the idea, don't attack the person.
8: No polls or petitions.
9: Don't beg for a suggestion to be Epic or call it 'Official'. Excessive begging will result in a lock.
10: Don't address Bort/admins/mods in your thread title.
11: No cursing in thread titles. No masked curse words, either. The thread will be deleted and suspensions given.
12. No compilation suggestions unless they are on the same topic and the topic is clearly stated in the title.
13. No hook threads. A hook thread is one whose title does not convey its content, such as "My suggestion" or "A couple suggestions".
14. No suggestions on specific players. This forum is for admins to improve the game, not for players to better their build.
∟[title] I need suggestions on my QB [/title] or [title] I suggest players do this to get a better build [/title]
► Tips on how to make a good suggestion ◀
- Try to make a descriptive thread title. For example, 'Replay suggestion' isn't good. 'Scoreboard when watching replay' is better.
- Don't flame anyone in your suggestion. A mature discussion will go a long ways.
- Summarize long suggestions. Getting to the point quickly will increase your support.
- Be clear and descriptive in the first post. Minimize the reading by keeping the original post up to date as new ideas evolve.
- If you make a compilation post please double check to make sure none of them are 'never going to happen' or epic already.
► Factors for Implementation ◀
There are often a number of factors that go into whether we implement a suggestion or not and ultimately it comes down to the following:
1. Will it improve the user experience with the game
2. Is there a business reason for implementing the suggestion
3. Does the cost of devoting the coding time to implementing the suggestion make sense
All three of those things must be yes answers for us to even consider implementing a suggestion and then we have the final determining factor in question #4.
4. Do the developers feel the suggestion works with their vision of the game
