Keyword Relevancy Addition to Board Rules & Guidelines?
I recently became aware of the importance of composing topic titles and descriptions in a manner conductive to attracting new members via internet search engines by fully maximizing Keyword Relevancy. As it turns out, composing topic descriptions with the intent of attracting new members from search engines is an “extremely high priority” at this forum, even higher than getting hits from current members viewing the last topic list. Yet no mention of the term Keyword Relevancy (that I can find) is shared with members on Trap 17’s Board Rules or Readme. Nothing here specifically addresses the fine art of maximizing Keyword Relevancy, and the infinite examples of un-optimized titles and descriptions further drive home this point. As an example, one of the topics I initiated was chosen for modification as the keywords were apparently not relevant to the content of the post. After some discussion, a much longer title/description that contained several keywords designed to garner increased hits off Google & Yahoo was accepted. The logic being attracting fresh members/advertisers supports uninterrupted free hosting at Trap 17, which of course makes perfect sense. What doesn’t make sense are the absence of guidelines to support this goal. Trap 17’s Readme emphasizes the import of creating topics that produce long discussions, as well as composing newsworthy titles utilizing limited words. These guidelines worked well for me in the past, as enough latitude existed for creative license to play some role. But I also find these instructions somewhat contradictory to the goals of Keyword Relevancy, as limited title keywords equal less internet hits. And composing catchy titles that encourage long discussion on this forum can certainly conflict with this goal as well. Or at least that’s how my domineering left cerebrum processes all this. I, and I suspect others of the non-techy bent, am confused by this disparity and need clear guidelines on how… exactly… staff would like titles and descriptions composed. As Keyword Relevancy in topic titles and descriptions plays an extremely vital role to Trap 17’s continued success, it would only make sense to share instructions with all members. Please consider providing clear, specific guidelines in Readme, preferably with some examples on how best to optimize Keyword Relevancy.

I have a suggestion, make an option where you receive email notification when your credit balance
drops below X.xx credits, and to make the value you receive the notification from different amounts,
e.g Recieve email notification when your credit balance drops below a certain amount: Y/N The
amount before you receive notification: 1/2/3/4/5/10/15/20/25/50/100 credits. (or something
simmilar) Even without this I have to say great job Trap17 /smile.gif"

Suggestion: "buying" More Space
- Use credits for something else as well... (5)
I'm thinking of setting up a system of "buying" more webspace for your site, just like the
domain name feature. Say, if you pay 20 credits, you get another 100 MB of bandwidth for your site.
Or, if you pay 40 credits, you get 10 MB more space. What do you think? Sorry, could you change
the "buy" in the title into "buying"? It seems like I'm trying to promote a paid hosting site.

[suggestion] Allow Users To Delete Their Own Topic
- Possibly only if there are no replies (4)
I've had the following happen to me twice within the past few days: I struggle with a problem
for three or four hours. Eventually I give in and post asking for help. While I wait for the help
I continue working on the problem. An hour or two down the road I figure out the issue on my own.
As such, I no longer need the topic I created. I'd like to delete it so as not to waste
people's time (and clutter up the sub forum), but I don't have the privileges to do so.
Being able to delete your own topics would allow users to self moderate, and cut down on...

Limiting Max Number Of Credit Posts Suggestion?

suggestion would be limiting posts that count for credits at 3 a day /rolleyes.gif"

don't know how to explain this idea, it's just something that came to my mind.. What do you

Tutorial Index Suggestion

A member (.nol) brought up an excellent point today. Index (table of content) of tutorials. An
easy way to browse what kinds of tutorials are available in Trap17--both general and GFX. The
simplest way of doing this is to generate RSS by sub-forum and then present it via Annex (for those
who do not know it's our Community page). Or, if OpaQue grants, I can include HTML code to
Tutorial Index forum post. Either way, it should be automated and updated according to RSS feed.
RSS is the easy part. What I would like for all members of Trap17 to do is think about how RS...

readily and enjoyful. that so-called award is just add their credit a bit +1 or any other award
you are able to think out.there should be a fixed or pinned post to evaluate hot post and award
it,like SOTW in GFX section. we can find the most popular or hot topic per week or m...
A Suggestion To All Mods And Admins.
- A suggestion. (13)
Hey guys. As some of the mods may know (Jlhaslip and Mayank among others), I report a fair amount
of posts and users. And I have a suggestion, since this is how I find this stuff. If you see a new
member with under 75 posts, that has posted a topic UNDER 50-70 characters, you need to review all
of his posts. I have caught three members within two days by doing this. And I will continue to do
this. The reason is these people tend to have the nasty habit of posting consistently short posts.
And although it may seem innocent on some of the short topic posts, I soon f...

Credits Suggestion
- This will help forum profits! (3)
I suggest that you make it possible for people to buy credits. The credits should be cheaper than
actual paid hosting. I think this is a good idea becuase users can post their way to getting 10
credits, but to keep their hosting they can buy, say, 100 credits. Then 100 days later they can buy
another 100. I think this will really lead to the success of this forum. Hope I helped....
Suggestion For Additional Credits
- (10)
hi friends, I just got a suggestion to make. Admins, just see whether it would help? Since there
are some topics which are made just for the sake of it and not of high interest. What I suggest is
that the topic starter can be given additional credits if he/she starts a topic which if of interest
to more members. This can be judged from the number of replies that are generated or by the number
of topic views. It can be set that for every 10 replies the topic owner gets certain credit points.
or may be for every 20/50 views that the topic generates, the member can be aw...
Negative Hosting Credits Suggestion

im suggesting that there should be a limit that your credits can go into the negatives. a while ago
i was really busy with school, sports, and everyday stuff. during this time, i did not have much
time to get online and i stopped going to this site for awhile. now i am back and want to get my
site back up so i can try some things. the thing is, my credits are way below zero. currently im at
-31 hosting credits. and you need 5 credits to get your site back up (i think its 5, not sure). i
was thinking that it might be an okay idea if you put a limit to how far your credits...
Suggestion: E-mail Reminder, Or Taskbar Application
- To let you know when you are almost out of credits (4)
Hi Everyone. I have a suggestion which quite possibly have been suggested before. My suggestion is
to have an e-mail reminder sent out to users who's hosting credits are below, lets say, 4
points. that way, users who can not return to the forums frequently could still be aware of their
credit status and avoid account suspension, it will also help bring back members to the forums to
post. Another option, which sounds best to me but might be harder to acheive, is to create a small
application that sits in your task bar and displays your current hosting credits, each...

guessing thats whats causing the slow loading)...
Suggestion

okay i read Dooga's topic just a second ago and i think that if the the admin the main admin
wants to know something about your account i think that he needs to pm the member on this forum and
tell the person that its him and ive seen this done on a different place. that way no members can
give info to a fake admin. I mean it would make so much sense instead of making topics about
impersonators and fake posters. I also think the real admin should also give a link to his real
email address so that we know that it is him asking for account info. Well that is my sugge...

Posts Suggestion
- (1)
I found that many people are confused about the post issue, where you have to have more than 300
charecters. However, I have a better suggestion. If you made a addon called "Good Posts" and after
that put the script of 300 charecters and another one saying "Total Posts" with the normal script.
For example, I posted 10 normal posts and 6 GOOD posts. That way, the ranks for the forum will rise
faster, yet, we still know how many posts are good. That way, I don't say n00b until I post over
30000 charecters in the forum....
Database Forum
- New forum suggestion (4)
hi moderators, I have a suggestion. I could not find a forum for Database. It wud be a good idea if
you could create a forum where queries on databases can be posted. Since I cud not find a suitable

please move my topic too to the new forum. There are a few other database topics too that are
present in the 'Others subforum'. Thanks....

suggestion for Shoutbox

When you add a shout to the shoutbox, dont know if this is just with mozilla (explorer i use) but
after posting a message you are then sent to a blank page. Now I know you could simply go back.
But as an suggestion make your site more efficient you should: Add some sort of redirection from
the blank page to the forum home (which I have seen another forum site do) or preferrably redirect
to the last page you posted your message from (but refreshed so your are able to view your message.
Or maybe you could somehow make the process of posting the messgae not take you...

I couldn't figure out why the forum didn't have that cozy webpage feeling. I looked it over

just doesn't feel/look right. Anybody agree? /huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle"
