Improve Group Interactions and Horde Usage
Posted 2022-05-23 15:13:17 (edited) #756078 See group details without having to join. It's really awkward having to join, realize the group doesn't interest you, and then leave right away. Reply dates in forums. Same as in Chatter, be able to see how old the latest reply in a forum topic is. Sticky for group rules. Rules for using the horde can get buried under updates, and they have to be changed one post at a time. Have the complete set of rules visible to new people looking to join. Added on 5/30/22- Ability to organize groups in "Your Memberships." It would help me remember themes/rules if I could choose their order instead of just by first-to-last joined. Added on 1/10/23- Ability to choose item limit taken daily by item type. In large groups that do hoard dumps or only 1 item taken per day lots of food rots. Members could for example be allowed to take 1 decor and 2 food items daily. Customizable horde restrictions. Option to choose what can be donated. A crafting group could for example choose "All Remnants," "All Recipes," and "All Items that Drop a Remnant." Option to prevent items from being donated. For example if you don't like just a couple of things like egg remnants. Option to require item-for-item exchange. You could customize tiers based on item value, or just exclude certain things from popping up in the member's exchange screen. Allow member to donate to the bank in place of leaving an item. Option to exempt people from advanced restrictions based on date account was activated. Allow new players to take more items or not have to exchange to take one.	🍂 Leonca 🐆 #54339

Support! I also would love to get notifications on replies to group threads, as well as be able to edit posts/comments.

Another functionality I would love to see is for items to be able to be used directly out of the hoard. So, say, someone has a sick wolf. They can use a medicine out of the hoard on that wolf, and it reduces the uses by one (or uses it up, depending on if it is one use or not). I feel like this way of usage would make it easier for people to get what they need without getting too much. To have the amount that can be used separate from the amount that can be taken from the hoard would be good too.

On the being able to sticky group rule posts, I agree! I would love that for the forums too, so 'official' threads can be at the top of the list always.

I like that idea Sepulchre! Some of the groups I'm in have added a limit to items being removed due to greed. I think that could be improved with your idea.

Admins could:
+ Choose if all items or a class of item can be used directly from the hoard or not
- "class" being defined as Food, Amusement, Medicine, etc
+ Choose if all items or a class of item will have a daily limit
+ Choose if the daily limit can be increased by 1 per player per donated item, resetting at RO
- this forces players to give back if they need/want to take more

I support for it all! I would like to add another that I think would be nice. That beign the ability to stick hoard rules specifically on the hoard page. That way people don't have to leave the hoard page and go searching if they're usure of something.

Adding on to this as well....

We don't have the ability to edit or delete topics made by members in general. I specifically run the same as wolven time and I take breaks when posting things and come back later.

For discussion in general notifications would be most helpful. I work full time so to have notifications makes it easy with short breaks.

So much support for all of this.

Also, the ability to set up schedules for things like the hoard would be amazing. So if you wanted to closed down the same time every week or month you could and not have to do it manually.
