Detailed description:
Hello everyone,

This is gonna be a long essay, would greatly appreciate you if you could read it to the end. <3

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:​

How I separate the points

(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​
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)​

️‍🔥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




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 :yaychu:.
