People who contribute: knowledge, stimulating discussions, humour.

Sure, there's a number here (greater than any other miniatures' forum) but can you have too many quality posts?

A spot where people can link their blogs and areas of interest. Maybe under the Directories column.

A "How to play" section to link vids .
I would like to have short how to play on lots of different rules so a person could see if it was the set for them.
Sorry if this is a bit mumble

1.) Working, effective search function
2.) "Like" button

vtsaogames01 Jan 2016 10:20 p.m. PST

1.) Working, effective search function

Google "TMP your question"

works faster

David Manley01 Jan 2016 10:36 p.m. PST

…..consistent moderation


…..culling of bizarre rules

Duc de Limbourg01 Jan 2016 10:41 p.m. PST

An end to all those bugs

Personal logo Doctor X Supporting Member of TMP01 Jan 2016 10:50 p.m. PST

Functionality, like better search engine, messaging, etc.

cavcrazy01 Jan 2016 11:17 p.m. PST

A live chat room, maybe have a moderator, different topics every night.

sneakgun02 Jan 2016 12:34 a.m. PST

Since Playboy no longer publishes nude photos……someone should pick up the slack.

Mako1102 Jan 2016 1:08 a.m. PST

Cowbell is right up there.

Could use a revamp/renewal of the old Rules Review section(s), which I'm not sure still exist, but if they don't, they should.

It'd also be nice to see a Reference Section, for common questions which seem to come up every week, if not more frequently, e.g. TO&E info, paint color info, rules options for different periods, etc., etc.. That stuff doesn't change very often, if at all, so would be very useful to many, I suspect.

Sundance and sneakgun may be on to something.

nevinsrip02 Jan 2016 2:39 a.m. PST

More TIMED OUT LOCKFILE.

I just can't get enough of that.

Easier to post pictures, maps, diagrams, ImagiNation TOE, alternate weapons, planes, afv, ad infinitum.

A sense of humor.

I'm with skip … easier ways to post pictures, maps, diagrams, etc., … kind of like Facebook. But without all the FB BS ! evil grin

Mute Bystander02 Jan 2016 8:02 a.m. PST

Foreign Intervention? Oh, sorry I meant less… TMP pretty much works fine for an old, creaky, hard to edit messages, American forum. wink to David Manley

Curry? Chili? Pepper?

Mute Bystander02 Jan 2016 8:03 a.m. PST

Seriously, Bill, update the forum to say 2010 standards at least?

Mute Bystander02 Jan 2016 8:04 a.m. PST

I got your lock file…

KSmyth02 Jan 2016 11:19 a.m. PST

I'm with the better search function and "Like" button crowd. That and what David Manley says.

Hafen von Schlockenberg02 Jan 2016 11:53 a.m. PST

100% with Skip and Legion.

Griefbringer02 Jan 2016 12:59 p.m. PST

The search function tends to work for me most of the time, though it is a bit erratic – sometimes it works very quickly, while at other times it ends up in a time-out.

However, currently the search works across all the boards, so if you query for "artillery" you might end up getting hits ranging from ancient catapults to futuristic auto-mortars. It would be nice to restrict such query to posts from a single board.

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP02 Jan 2016 1:26 p.m. PST

Getting rid of the need for daily maintenance would seem to be an obvious one.

ubercommando02 Jan 2016 2:04 p.m. PST

I can think of a few things it needs less of…

Cosmic Reset02 Jan 2016 4:50 p.m. PST

Either fizzy paint-water or atomic pants.

Calico Bill02 Jan 2016 5:11 p.m. PST

Update and return of the old Rules Directory. I found it to be an excellent resource for comparing rules sets as well as giving a beginner to a period an idea of what was "out there".

Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut02 Jan 2016 8:25 p.m. PST

"Submit New Topic" button working. I have working for about 15 minutes now from both my computer and my phone to get my blog update posted so it will show up on the front page and allow me to cross post it. I am having no problem replying to topics already started, but cannot seem to start a topic of my own in an acceptable manner. This has been happening more and more lately, and it is starting to bug me.

Ragbones02 Jan 2016 8:55 p.m. PST

Another vote for easier posting of images.

Tango0102 Jan 2016 10:42 p.m. PST

Por Dios y la Virgen Santa!….that this works well at some point !!…. (smile)

Half an hour to post a thread… and without results … yet!.

Solzhenitsyn03 Jan 2016 11:44 a.m. PST

I'd answer but….

The words I use might upset some gentle soul who would then have to run to their "safe space", complain to an editor and I'd get thrown in the dawghouse.

Safer just to not post anything.

Stepman303 Jan 2016 2:35 p.m. PST

Ability to post photos with ease…If "4.0" is being worked on now why are you asking for opinions on what we want from the forum? Unless I misunderstood I thought "4.0" was close to completion…

boy wundyr x04 Jan 2016 8:57 a.m. PST

Some way to track what threads I've posted to, and a way to otherwise track ones I'm interested in, sort of like a personal pinning. There have been very useful threads (how-tos, book lists, etc.) that if I don't print off right away, I'm unlikely to find again, particularly if the subject line isn't clearly related to the actual subject.

Personal logo javelin98 Supporting Member of TMP04 Jan 2016 12:28 p.m. PST

Needs more boobies. Maybe we could just make a board with that title? wink
