>Alrighty, after seeing repeated suggestions over and over "ADMIN WHY U NO NIGHTFURY?" and "GIMME HOUSE PLS", I think it would be beneficial to have a "Please read all others suggestions before suggesting" rule. Of course, there are problems that come with this such as people being lazy and not wanting to read 100 posts about suggesting having a house. Alternatively, we could make a really big thread of all the suggestions.(I prefer this one)

I have to agree with this. I'd be nice to have a big thread of all suggestions, then people can just add to it, or just take off things from it instead of having 6 different suggestion topic all saying the same thing.

*guilty culprit here*
Yeah... sorry. I'm too lazy to read through all of them so I just read down a few. But yeah the second option seems lazy-friendly.

I agree, though I think it's something the admins would have to be vigilant about to keep it in line; they'll need to remove ((even to a staff-only recycle bin)) repeated threads, chosing only the ones they think have the better content as the main suggestion threads ... I realise there is a rule about repeat threads, but with the admins being so busy it's hardly surprising that we've still got an influx of repeats, and I think it might get harder for them to monitor the bigger the game gets and the more people post. I do like the idea of having big threads to house the suggestions, and I've been doing that with all the suggestions that come to my mind ((admittedly, I did make another thread with a suggestion sometime afterwards, but I've abandoned that one and put the idea in my main suggestion thread)). If the suggestions forum itself was condensed into a solitary thread, though, the original poster of the thread - whoever it turns out to be - would need to constantly edit their post to insert the new ideas, whether by copy pasta or ((to keep things more organised)) links to the suggestee's post. You'd need to make sure that the OP is someone who will come back to the forums often and are willing to trawl through the pages of new posts to copy pasta/link up the new suggestions. So the thread layout could be something like this:
WELCOME TO THE SUGGESTION THREAD!Please read through the list of suggestions before posting your own; you might find your idea has already been suggested  GAME IDEAS- Garden beds in farms
- NIGHT FURIES!!!
- etc.
WEBSITE IDEAS- Let us choose which background we see
- etc.
That's an example for linked ((even though I haven't linked any)), and clicking on the suggestion titles should lead to the original proposal. The OP could insert a "form" on their post that people would need to copy and paste into their post when they're making a brand new suggestion ((but not if they're discussing alternatives and possibilities to proposed subjects)). eg.
NEW SUGGESTION HERE!Game or Website?: Game Area of above?: Farms Suggestion: I would really like it if we could grow a garden that we don't have to harvest, to decorate our farms. We could pick which flowers or whatever we want seen in each garden patch, and if we get bored of them we could either put them in our inventories or pluck them - maybe we could send flowers to our friends as gifts for their farms?
Or ... you know ... whatever. |

I mainly just read the titles of the recent ones and if I don't see the suggestion in the title, I make it and then get promptly yelled at for my laziness. |

Yeah ... it wasn't an official suggestion as such XD If it was, I probably would have put it in my growing list of suggestions.  |
