Drop down menu for ingame stats, I find the clutter as irritating as Loriel does. It's a good idea, but it doesn't need to be shown all the time. And obviously the option to have it not display for all of those people that like to play hide-n-seek (I know where you are ^^ )

I like the idea of getting into some kind of turn-based fighting system with the pets, low-key of course. I don't need another thing to waste tons of time with. Using a point system to buy avatar and such would be nice just because we could get away from the post count thing ( :spam: )

• Forum time regenerates pets health + magic
• pets use different attacks based on battle exp
  1. physical attacks
  2. magic attacks (fire, ice, thunder, healing, the usual junk)
  3. blocking
• points are earned in battle
  1. earned for successful hits, blocks, and wins
  2. used for purchasing exp for your pet, or avatar, custom title, stuff
  3. lose points and exp (if no points) for losing battles
     1. keep people from staging battles to help each other gain points
     2. lose enough lvls, you lose purchased priveledges (like you bought avatar at lvl 5, you drop to 3, you lose avatar, so you can't just lose it right after getting it)
• dropdown menu on user's name will link you to pet stats and such
  1. Initiate battle with this user's pet
  2. View stats for this user's pet
  3. Add this user's pet to your team

and um, yeah, keep the regular post count requirements for avatar and such for the people who don't want to do the pet thing

I choose you, Pikachu!

Hmm, I really do like the idea of elemental based attacks for the pets. Makes it much more than a "I sniped a bunch of newbies and got the most powerful weapon straight off the bat, now I can crush anyone!".

I don't like the Lose Stuff idea so much; just an antirep system maybe, you can only duel another player once a month. Be fun if it was a strict duelling system, offers to duel must be accepted so you can't just pick on newbies without teammates...

How about marriage and birth for the pets!?

that would just be ... weird
x_x

That sounds a bit more acceptable than my idea. I know someone would have to make a thread about losing their avatar :rolleyes: . Aslong as you can't just stage battles to help friends gain exp. I thought up all of that within like 5-10 mins, so it's a bit sketchy.

Umm, just pretend that you can do that and we'll all be happy http://members.aol.com/michaelangelo36/dismay.gif

Area in the profile to provide your msn adress

How about a little "tax-ticker" or whatever they are called that shows who have posted lately in wich thread, it would be updated once it had been through all new posts? It should run in a seperate window so that you could do something else and then just check it once in a while to see if you got any aswers on your thread, also we need the forum to refresh by it self

Heh, a news ticker that constantly types up the latest posts? We have subscribed threads, but that'd work for the subscribeds...

It already does that, atleast in the thread view.

did someone say ticker? http://forums.graal2001.com/forums/s...threadid=24187 doesn't work anymore though

hm.. didn't noticed it refreshed itself XD

A seperate area maybe for these pets, as not to collide with the main forum posts and hog bandwidth etc... hell, to please those complaining it could be VIP only! Then you'd have your VIP Only forums.

VIP only pets would suck :[ No fun in wacking people who complain all the time ;O
Besides VIPs have the v 3 preview too...

we hardley have anything..

We have more than gold, complainer! :O
