    Hey gamers,

    We're in the process of making the forums a more community-friendly destination for both viewers and partners alike. Here are some of the things we've implemented as well as some things we're currently working on implementing:

    • Thread prefixes - We've already added a few to the GFX section of the forums and will be expanding them to other sections this month to improve organization and help you find threads you're actively searching for.
    • Trophies - Why not reward some of our active users? You'll soon be able to earn trophies for posting, being helpful, creative, offering services, participating in MGN events, etc.
    • Spam limitation - It isn't a secret that many of the users posting here on the forums are simply promoting their YouTube content. And, while that's not necessarily a bad thing, we want to encourage users interacting with one another. We'll soon have limits on the amount of self-promotion users can do. Perhaps only being allowed to promote after a set number of posts or every week or two. We would love to hear feedback on what you guys in the community would like to see in regards to this.
    • Fun stuff - We've decided to get a little festive and add some snow to our forums as well as update our smilies to a more high-res/better looking variant. Enjoy!
    Thanks and keep on gaming! ;)

    Great update @Alex !

    Regarding the Spam in the advertise section maybe limit it to once a day and optional: only for MGN partners to avoid non members spamming the section.
    When people post their it would be a social option if members focussed more on giving feedback or discussing the video. (When the update is done make a sticky thread regarding the rules and Do's and Dont's to refer to)​

    I like the spam limitation. That section is turning into a Google+ community. "post and go".

    Interesting updates, I think making it MGN Partners only is a good idea so that not everyone can just come in and post their content.

    Maybe do something like a credit system, each post someone makes they will receive 1 credit and it costs maybe 15 credits to promote there channel in the self promotion sections and reviews :)
