How about a MySpace-style mood feature? So you can have your current mood shown on your profile?

[Benji]

Team tell me if this sounds ok for our second feature? Any alterations needed can easily be rectified.


2. SHOUTbox

This new and exciting feature could be an excellent addition to the forum and could be just what the site needs to boost the energy and livliness of the site, now Big Brother has left us for another summer.

Below are our proposed indications as to were the SHOUTbox could go.

A. The shoutbox could replace the "Latest Posts" coloum on the right side of the site were the index for all the threads are.

Or

B. A new home. Make space for this at either the bottom of the index page or the top.

All you need to do to leave a "SHOUT" in the SHOUTbox is to Leave your name, E-mail (if preffered) and your message. Simple and effective.

The SHOUTbox will be basically be a place for people to notify anyone publicly or if you would like to post message to the whole forum, instead of starting a new thread, just post it in the SHOUTbox.

Having a SHOUTbox will cut down the number of useless posts that clutter the forum and will be a new way to bring everyone together and make TIBB even better.

[Matt]

That's great! You don't need to capitalise the "hout" though!

[Benji]

why, i think it gives it a "brand" - ive been talking about this today in film studies, its give its an identity.

[Matt]

It's not really the kinda thing that need's its own identity though... but if you want...

[Benji]

thank you! - lol

Sorry, changed it!

[Matt]

Hehe s'ok.

I think we have a good chance of getting a shoutbox tbh...

[Benji]

Woohoo - So, when does it start?

[Ruth*Star]

I think thats a good idea, the shoutbox is a good idea because news could be displayed which only registered members should see.

[Matt]

It would also be more used than the chatroom because it's on the forum itself...

[Benji]

One Question.


Where's Nicola?

Nicola hasnt been on all week, she hasnt suggested anything, nor even commented on anything.

She is a woman of few words...

[Benji]

that could cost her, her place on The App.

Actually she Suggested Tibb Cash which i thought was the best idea on here.
She's commented twice.

How about TiBB cash, for good posts the "cash" is increased and you can spend it in a TiBB "shop".

Like all the other ideas, I wanted something fun as well and that everyone can be a part of.

I think it's self-explanatory unless there is a specific point you're stuck on and want me to explain in more detail.

[Benji]

to be honest ruth, Twice isnt good enough - that sounds mean but....Im Task Manager!

I think if you sign up for something like this, you do need to put the hours in, i have re-arranged my entrance 3 times before actually coming in on Monday. So that i know i have at least a week free, that im not doing anything.

[Benji]

and i did ask for her to elaborate more and explain things etc, but she hasnt been on since.

[James]

Hi, thanks for your ideas. I won't be able to choose one tonight because I need to check to see if something is technically possible on the forum before choosing a new feature to add. Also, I'll be away from the computer most of this evening, probably.

Both teams have come up with good ideas, thanks. You can still put up your suggestions on the TiBB Apprentice forum tonight if you want, and see what everyone thinks.

[Benji]

So, who will decide who goes home? - Hhmmmmmm, i feel a twist coming on

[Ruth*Star]

I do 2, i don't think anyone's place is safe, i think the winning team secure's that team leader's safety, like if we won, you would be guaranteed safety.

[Nicola]

Just wanted to say sorry for not being online for a few days, I've been tired and have a busy life at home - I've got a small child who demands my attention and a partner who works long hours and have been stressed out enough about not being online when people want me to, most people in the team have been willing to make allowances for this especially when I've got upset, they've really valued my contribution and I've put myself out to help the rest of the team. I don't think the fact that I've had 2 days offline will go against me considering all that so please don't pick me apart any more, it's bad enough I have to come online just to check and find people are saying bad things about me.

[Benji]

Were not saying bad things about you, thats just mean, but im saying if you want the job then you have to be online and help out. Im sorry if i have been mean....But i did warn you! - lol - So, basically dont take it too seriously - although i do - but i just like to get the job done properly.

As its my first 3 days been here i dont know what goes off behind the scenes before, and i havnt been informed of any Circumstances that you may have, and you didnt inform me of any. So i have to make assumptions.

But not to worry, We may still Win, no infact, we WILL win.

All desisions have been finalised and we do have 2 final features.

Please Nicola try and be online more - it will get you far in the game! -

Thanks a lot,

Ben - Task Manager

[James]

It's only a game, a bit of fun. Some people can't get online as often as others.

[Benji]

Yeah, i take things to seriously! - lol -
