A list of suggestions​

Detailed description:

Hello everyone,​

This is gonna be a long essay, would greatly appreciate you if you could read it to the end. ​

I remember I have said that the forum was going downhill back in 2020, and through these two years, I don't see any sign of the forum rising again. The forum should be a place for people to communicate and have discussions. But with fewer and fewer people joining the forum, it turns into a place that no one would like to join, and no one would like to stay. The community of the forum just slowly dying. New threads no longer have the popularity and quality compared to the ones back in the day, especially no one even gonna read them. Under this condition, who would even like to make high-quality threads? It just seems like a waste of time. Maybe it is just the natural course of the community? But I am sure that if there are some updates to the forum, with a few "advertisements" of forum ingame, it should not be a hard task for new people to join!​

​

​

️‍Brand new Reward System​

☞ Redefine Trophy Points​

Currently, the points are just a number, it does not represent anything. However, It could change so that when your trophy points are higher, you will unlock more things, which would lead to my next suggestion.​

​

☞ Cosmetics​

This would be a huge factor in the reward system of trophy points. As I have said above, when your trophy points are higher, you will unlock more things which are the new cosmetics. The cosmetics could be:​

(Cosmetics & points below are just for reference)​

18 trophy points​	Animated Banner​
48 trophy points​	Animated Avatar​
78 trophy points​	Higher Signature limit​
118 trophy points​	Custom Avatar Border​
173 trophy points​	Custom Message https://imgur.com/fumgKDn View: https://i.imgur.com/fumgKDn.png​
213 trophy points​	Special badge ingame (in tab)​
263 trophy points​	Special discord role (Eg: Forum Master)​

☞ Balance Trophy Points + Add more Trophy Points​

​

At the moment, some of the "tasks" are quite unbalanced. For example​

"Popular" - Your content must be really inspiring! Congratulations on the 100 followers!​

100 followers is not an easy task to achieve, but it only gives you 15 trophy points!​

​

To add, there should be more trophy points available to people, the new list of trophy points would also improve the above reward system, making the tasks and the reward more meaningful and reasonable.​

​

(You may refer to the current available trophy points list HERE)​

​

1 Trophy Points​	First Message​ Post a message somewhere on the site to receive this.​
2 Trophy Points​	Somebody Likes You​ Somebody out there reacted positively to one of your messages. Keep posting like that for more!​
2 Trophy Points (NEW)​	You are right!​ You reacted positively to others' messages.​
5 Trophy Points​	Keeps Coming Back​ 30 messages posted. You must like it here!​
5 Trophy Points (NEW)​	First fans?​ Someone has followed you! Keep it up!​
5 Trophy Points (NEW)​	How are you?​ You've left a message on someone's profile, hope you will have a great day!​
10 Trophy Points (NEW)​	Caught you!​ You successfully reported a bug.​
10 Trophy Points (NEW)​	Listen to me!​ One of your suggestions is accepted!​
10 Trophy Points​	Can't Stop!​ You've posted 100 messages. I hope this took you more than a day!​
10 Trophy Points​	I Like It a Lot​ Your messages have been positively reacted to 25 times.​
15 Trophy Points (5➙15)​	Small Reporter​ You successfully reported 25 players.​
15 Trophy Points (20➙15)​	Addicted​ 1,000 messages? Impressive!​
15 Trophy Points​	Seriously Likeable!​ Content you have posted has attracted a positive reaction score of 100.​
20 Trophy Points (5➙20)​	Known​ 25 people like you and your content enough to follow you!​

25 Trophy Points (NEW)​	Wow, It is so quick!​ It is a year since you register on forum, and time passes by really quickly!!​
30 Trophy Points​	I LOVE IT!​ Content you have posted has attracted 500 positive reactions.​
40 Trophy Points (50➙40)​	Beacon of positivity​ The community absolutely loves your content! Good job on the 1,000 reaction score!​
40 Trophy Points​	Forums Master​ 10,000 messages?! You really, really have a lot of free time. Well done!​
50 Trophy Points (15➙50)​	Popular​ Your content must be really inspiring! Congratulations on the 100 followers!​

​

​

(According to my very accurate calculation, the new maximum points will be 350, looks much cleaner than 263 right!!!)​

​

️‍Other General Suggestions​

☞ Able to link the forum account to discord and mc account​

This has been talked about for quite a long time, and surely it should be implemented. Linking your mc & discord account so that people would know who you are ingame, and also in discord.​

​

​

☞ New "Support" section on the top bar​

https://imgur.com/LzJL0oJ

View: https://i.imgur.com/LzJL0oJ.png​

It would make it the newcomers easier to know where they should go after encountering the issues.​

After clicking, a GUI will pop up, tells you:​

​

Seems like you need some help! See if any solution below could help you! Found someone broke the rules? You may report them HERE. Got banned/muted falsely? You may create an appeal HERE. Came across any bugs? You may report them HERE. Encountered other issues? You may create help and support ticket HERE.

​

☞ More reaction emojis​

As the title suggests, there could be more reaction emojis. Could mainly focus on the emoji of Pikachu, just like all the very cute custom emojis in discord.​

☞ Reply per pages​

Currently, the reply per page is fixed at 20. We should be able to choose eg 30/50/100 replies per page. Much easier to go through all the replies.​

☞ Pin Reply & Profile post​

If someone owns a thread, then the owner should be able to pin a reply, making it the first reply on the thread. The same concept goes to profile posts. (Just like youtube comments)​

​

​

☞ Bring back "Latest posts"​

Back in the day, the 5 newest posts would be displayed above the latest profile posts. It is very convenient for people to check the latest post, so why not?​

​

☞ Collapsable forum category​

Just like how we could minimize a category in discord, we can minimize the category that we don't need.​

​

☞ New sub-category - Tutorial​

As you may know, the guide threads (eg. How to play survival?) are separated in every subcategory. It would be much easier for the people to review if all the guide threads are under 1 category.​

​

​

If you have any ideas that you think should be implemented on the forum, please reply below! Thanks for reading .​

Forums always needed an update and improvement and these are perfect :)

Forums surely needs a revamp! Can't wait to wait for a year for this to be added!! (jk ily devs)

Also, not really fond of custom avatar borders since It's kinda special and 118 points isn't very hard

 

[_Nikki99]

What a great idea mate, Forums getting a revamp?

 

[EA0_2_0_8_]

I can't think of other cosmetics XD

What a great idea mate, Forums getting a revamp?

Hope there would be one soon

 

[_Nikki99]

It's ok lol, still great idea and respect to you to type that all, and I think it should be added!

 

[Anuly]

Yep fair because forums doesn't really have much to offer xD

 

[Lumin0us]

Hello, i will start off my opinion like this

Linking Forum Account with Discord and MC
This has been already suggested and denied, without a reason explained at all, but sure i will still agree with it, but i think you should only be able to link with discord, as i don't see a reason why it should be for MC

All Reward System Related Suggestions
+1 Except for having animated avatar and banners, because the performance to other users would be bad

Other General Suggestions

Support Section
Neutral, i highly doubt anyone will use or notice it at all, because some people just log on, and immediately make a thread for example on Skywars how they encountered a bug/hacker/other

More Reaction Emojis
How about instead making pika variants of the current reactions
e.g. Pika Lovely, Pika Happy, Pika Sad etc
Still agreeing tho so +1

Reply Per Pages
Limit should be 50, +1 tho

Pinning Posts/Profile Posts
+1

Bring back ''Latest Posts''
Without any reason removed, +1

Collapsable From Category
+1

Sub-Category ''Tutorial''
+1

 

[_Nikki99]

He talking about the forums getting a reset.

 

[_Nikki99]

but I respect your opinion, but I think it needs an update

 

[DawdlingPrawn33]

Thank you for your interest in creating a suggestion

I have decided to Upvote your suggestion due to the following reasons

• Yes it needs a revamp I want to see more people on forums

Maybe a dedicated forum moderator or something like that? (Meaning that 2-3 persons moderate all the forum pages respective to their game mode eg MrEpiko in suggestion )
Have fun playing on PikaNetwork!

 

[_Nikki99]

oooo very pog, what an amazing suggestion! Can't wait for it :3

Love the ideas, always thought that Pika's forums look quite boring, these ideas would totally make it look better.

Also, ppl join forums and suggest something useful but it gets denied instantly for reasons like

- not going to happen
- no plans for this

Like if it was already planned, we wont be suggesting it. Let the community atleast vote. And if they want it, then you should add it in ur plans.

 

[_Nikki99]

There should definetly be an update on the forums since this is the main site for Pika users
