Below are links to the recent posts discussing the state of the game and suggestions that have received popular feedback.

If you have authored or found threads that have gone green recently that I have missed, please let me know via PM or add to the post and I will update.

I will try to keep this updated. While I know we all love a good Meme, those will not be added in this. The idea behind this is to capture constructive feedback and provide ideas.

    So who has the ability to Sticky a thread? Can our Moderators do it, or just Ice?
  • I appreciate you compiling this list, Clintman. (Suspiciously, half of those threads are yours...)
    When this turns green sooner or later you're gonna have to add this compendium to itself icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I believe any Mod can do it.

  • Not seeing a whole lot of positive threads go green. icon_e_sad.gif In fact, all those listed show MPQ in a negative light. It's a shame. This used to be a really fun game. I can count on one hand the number of games I've played this long and have put this much time into and none of them are mobile games except MPQ.

    I still play and get some enjoyment. However, I feel that the devs are trying to force me to stop instead of leaving from boredom.

    See Tips and Guides for a lot of positive threads that have gone green. Useful, positive threads get stickied.

    Usefulness and positivity doesn't garner a lot of agreement. For example, not a lot of people agree with the Character Compendium. The Character rankings is more popular, and generally positive.

    Polls fare worse, but does that matter? Which Characters Are Most Fun To Play? got over 900 votes, but only 2 upvotes. If I ran a poll that got 20 votes and 8 upvotes, which poll was better?
  • Er, what makes a thread green?

    25 or more upvotes on a post turns it green.
  • Don't see the point of this thread. Only seems to highlight negativity, most of the points mentioned in the highlighted threads have been addressed elsewhere, most notably in IceIX's questions thread. Stickying that thread would be more worthwhile.

    There's some sort of metagame going on where the user with the bigger reputation total wins.
    Also, lots of newbies not being able to tell their search from their arch make this topic very moderately useful icon_e_smile.gif
