4. How about polls and a sort by feature?!
5. Still clueless
6. I wouldn't really enjoy a dark theme. It just doesn't feel..... casual and happy.
7. That increases the chance of spam, so no, so there could notifs telling us that a post was recently edited
8. Tutorials for new users on how to mod. We normal users are too ****ing lazy to make our own nowadays!
9. Only if it's getting updated on a regular basis
10. If they are strictly moderated, then yes. Some fool will eventually upload personally forbidden content like what happened a long time ago.

Fluffy Few things to say about what you both have said so far:
- Double posting is a problem, however it can be done in correct and appropriate ways. We're looking to unlock those potentials.
- The mod
Few things to say about what you both have said so far:
- Double posting is a problem, however it can be done in correct and appropriate ways. We're looking to unlock those potentials.
- The mod website will be updated on our end as much as we can, but it's up to the community to supply their mods for it to be a success.
- Music mods would be moderated to a degree, similarly all mods will be. Though because of the new DMCA compliant system we're creating, we're hoping to allow any content with the ability to be notified if there is infringing content.
- We're only accepting PC suggestions, and mostly obsecure games that do not have modding communities that however have modding potential.

Surreal Bot Well, that rules out my suggestion for Metal Arms: Glitch in the System getting modded... God knows why it didn't get a PC port when its Xbox and GC ports were released.

1. I use the forum to get in contact with other modders regarding help and suggestions for my mod, and to browse and download mods the community has already made for this game.
2. I think this would be less beneficial since having everything in one place is usually a good idea for small communities like this.
3. I would say 8/10, as I would like to see a notification system and a better search function added.
4. See #3
5. I'd say a new user would have a reaction of 8/10, for the same reasons listed in #3. Otherwise though the forum is very well laid out and has an inviting feel to it.
6. I would support this decision if the user could choose between the current and darker theme, but I personally like the colors you use now. A little change is good every once in a while though.
7. I would be fine with this as long as the two posts were about entirely different topics, as it helps things stay organized.
8. I don't have any significant problems in mind!
9. This is the first I've heard of it, but I likely will if its inclusive of the mods of the community, If its just Donut Mod then I think what you have going already is fine.
10. I would completely support this decision.
11. I think just having SHAR is fine, as having multiple completely different games with no relations on one site would be awkward.
12. N/A
13. N/A
14. Possible rankings and seniority so new users know who to trust with their questions.
15. I feel appreciated as I've already heard a few excited remarks about the mod I'm developing, and also feel involved as I've been trying as hard as I can to provide feedback and suggestions to Donut Team and community members alike.
16. So far Donut Mod has consistently impressed me with its execution of your original idea to revamp the game's missions while still keeping that original Hit and Run feel, and I feel like the updates are reasonably paced considering the amount of work that gets put in to each one. Keep up the good work guys!

7. No, double posting should stay forbidden. Unless if it's a documentation based post it should be allowed.
8. People who randomly join to troll the community.
9. Absolutely, it looks great in terms of aesthetics and the idea of peoples mods being on the front page for easy access is
overall a brilliant idea.
10. Supportive, especially if said uploader is the actual composer of these soundtracks too.
11. Games which are somewhat obscure or lack modding communities, there's plenty of awesome games which need modding.

14. Perhaps banners could return? Ranking system and badges.
15. Absolutely, some of the most supportive people on here.
16. Consistency between updates isn't guaranteed, I know that since you've all got your own lives and such; so i really don't have a problem with inconsistent updates.
Donut Mod never fails to impress and every single update keeps getting better and better so i'm looking forward to Episode Four. Keep up the good work.

3. 7 - Good but could do with a bit improvement, maybe take notes of other modding websites.
4. Some ranking system for mods would be nice, make modders want to make better mods and actually complete them. And some sort of mod showcase
5. A bit intimated at first, not sure on what to do, what to download. But would also learn this quickly..
6. Yes I'm up for it, would it be possible for it to be optional so where the user gets to chose.
7. Yes if someone forgot to add important information to there previous post there not going to wait for someone else posts just to post it.
8. More tutorials, these is something the community could help with, so maybe some sort of reward system for people making tutorials.
9. Yeah probably.
10. Yeah I think it would be nice to be able to listen do different music while playing.
11. Yeah but I don't know what games tho, can't think of any atm.
12.
13.
14. Banner, custom background, some sort of personal mod showcase to show off mods you have made and worked on.
