WTF, A Trophy?

I would rather have a vote down button. Something useful!

We have a thread for that discussion, please keep this thread dedicated to trophies.

• A Delete button which expires within the first 5 minutes.
  
• An option for square avatars in Style Preferences.
• Exclude forums from the Spy and new posts.
• "Thread Starter" badges for the OP.
• Custom Retina smilies.
• Dark Mode for MacRumors.

Let's see if just one of these is added before the new trophies 🙂

The thing is, the trophies are an easy to adjust thing for any of the admins - its boilerplate stuff where they can be edited. Most of the other things on your list will require Arn and his developers to put some work into it to make them happen.

I'd say a Delete button would be fairly easy to implement, and there is certainly a need for it (I saw two duplicate/deleted posts yesterday alone).

The excluded forums can be done using a simple Xenforo plugin, so it wouldn't be a huge burden on the admins.

The Retina smilies from the old forum could simply be re-implemented. There's only one new smilie on the Xenforo forums (😵) that this can't be done for.

Not wanting to change the subject again, but over all I very much like the new Forum format. Lots of bells and whistles we did not have with the older format.😎

Doesn't seem like either one of those on their own comes off as all that useful.

At least for the the first post presenting a rumour or news. I can understand they don't want it being used for user bashing.

I was thinking the vote down button might stop some of the bashing, but then this is McRumors

Well, good point. I guess only McRumors nows the answer...I'll stick with my proposal.

I suspect that McRumors tried to keep the most happy while taking the path of least resistance.

Have a great weekend
