DropBox for Site Improvement Ideas

I think it would be incredibly useful if we could send 'sent messages' to folders, the way we can messages in our inbox. At the present moment, you can only sort half of a conversation into a folder - especially bad if someone doesn't quote the previous message.

Thoughts?

I think it would be useful to move 3D Printing to the frontpage of the Forums (i.e., give it its own master thread). The further we get from 2009, the more the future of Heroscape will be 3D printing. I think it would be helpful if that wasn't buried where only people in the know could find it, but front & center for everyone to see.

Helpful subthreads would be the .stl files (obviously), and some support threads where questions of the best printer settings, best printers to buy, and re-painting tips could be asked (with some stickies for common already answered questions of course).

One of my concerns with providing more traffic to it is we increase the possibility that wotc takes notice and issues a cease and desist and shuts down the website. I wouldn't put that in the likely category, but I do know the possibility exists and I'm not nearly familiar enough with copyright law to know how to navigate it.

I thought the copyrights expired?

And what about the rights of c3v models.?

Good points. The site, and the .stl files, continuing to be accessible for the community is more important than them being broadcast widely

Suggestion for site improvements: Remove the mandatory delay between downloading files, or only trigger it after 5 or 10+ files have been downloaded. If I'm trying to download the Wargrounds of Scape build instructions, it's a tad annoying to have to wait 30 seconds between every map. I don't think there will be negative consequences in allowing people to download multiple things in a row.

Suggestion 2: Expand the inbox limit. There are a few conversations I'd have loved to save, but just can't due to the inbox limit.

I believe the inbox limit is effectively infinite for Site Supporters.

It would be great if we could Search Forums for a specific date range. I did some quick poking around vbulletin.org and dragonbyte-tech.com but didn't see an addon for it, but I'm guessing it probably exists somewhere. Wouldn't be surprised if this has already been discussed, but in case not...

The neg rep system leads to toxic behavior, it should be removed.
