Gift Guru Join Date: May 2008 Posts: 10,000 | Re: An Idea for the Avatar & Signature Section I like the idea as well but I see 2 problems with it. The firs is that it would be taking traffic away from people's shops and the second one is that there would be no way for people to keep track of who was filling each order since only the mods can edit the posts. That would just cause the mods to do a lot of work that would be very confusing and time consuming. I like the idea but I just don't think it is very practical for WI. | | | 11-02-2009, 07:47 AM | #13 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 22,232 | Re: An Idea for the Avatar & Signature Section  Originally Posted by ClaraZ25 I like the idea as well but I see 2 problems with it.

As soon as I got into bed that problem hit me, too. 
I figured that maybe there could be a rule that the person posting on the request thread could only order one graphic.
I'm pretty sure we can edit our own posts though. I know I can, and I'm pretty sure 'webkinz' and gifted can, too. All the mods would have to do is simply delete the posts that are eitehr flagged or marked "solved."
EDIT- Wait, I get what your saying now. I didn't mean that the person who filled the request would edit the post as "solved." The person who requested the graphic would once they either gave up the search or recieved the graphic they wanted. | | | 11-02-2009, 07:52 AM | #14 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 22,232 | Re: An Idea for the Avatar & Signature Section  Originally Posted by Webkinz5929 This is a good idea, but it could lead to some complications..but still a cool idea.
Rep. Would you mind telling me the complications? I would like to know, so we can work to get tweak the idea.  Originally Posted by Maggie Mae I really like this idea!

Rep for you!  I think that would lead to the end of shops, though. Thanks!  Originally Posted by tarsky781 I like that idea, but it would probably quicker just to order at a shop.  Not always. Usually, at shops, you have to deal with customers, and when the certain shop owner completes the order, etc. | | | 11-02-2009, 09:34 AM | #16 | Steelers Nation Gifted Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 3,466 | Re: An Idea for the Avatar & Signature Section Great Ideerr.

Because, if the person who according to them desperatley needs a avvie or siggy, why don't they look if they are that desperate? This is a great idea.

I know what you mean, sometimes those request threads take over the A/S section, shops are bumped down. It sounds very organized, so it might take a bit of planning to actually create it ... I think we need a staff member's opinion. 
But I do see one flaw ... I really think this is gonna take away from shops. I mean, most members are gonna think 'why go to shops, we can just request at one thread and get a bunch of different graphics!' so ... yeah. So I'm sorta 50/50 on this, but I still think it's very creative & well-planned. Repp!
Edit: And in case this does work out, I vote that the thread be called "The Universal Thread of Graphics" 
xD To prevent the shops being unused, I thought maybe there could be rule for this thread that each requester can only order one graphic for each post, and may only post once per day. It'd have to be the honor system though.   Originally Posted by webkinzchick1 Great Ideerr. Or they could just use the shops. I understand, but some people don't use the shops now, anyways.
