    Lightbulb Convention vs Clutter

    Hey fellas,
    It seems to me that we all might be better off using naming conventions for actual tested and completed plugins versus normal threads. I propose that we use "(COMPLETED PLUGIN) MyPlugin" as the heading for an AcTuAl plugin thread where "MyPlugin" is the name of the plugin. This way, when a user searches for completed plugins, he can use the the term "(COMPLETED PLUGIN)" and find all threads relating only to actual plugins. Otherwise, it seems likely that we'll just end up with another forum full of threads and plugins all mixed together.

    What do you guys think?

    i agree, and also request a mod to *sticky* actual plugin posts as thay are posted, that way none slip through the net and all compleated plugins are one the first page

    Another good idea is for a few people like C B programming and webdesign, Centauri Soldier to go around the threads and add tags like.
    • working release
    • work in progress
    • abandoned
    • bug-free
    • downloadable

    etc, etc.

    Since you don't need permissions to change thread tags, or at least I don't..

    very good idea...

    Well, what do you think of all this IR staff? Adding a moderator or two would take the load of forum maintenance off of you and make this a true "user-forum".
