live chat room
live chat room would be cool...
how bout home page music? lol...
Chat would be good for a few days and then it would lose it luster and die out. It would also take away post count which I want to have keep raising for awhile ;)
how about an online FSM?
How about a way to change the site layout. I know that VBulletin offers more than this. Is there a way to get options?
there is also user/member select theme and it retains that particular theme chosen. so if i selected a black background theme with white lettering (which i do on another site) it should return me to the selected black background theme everytime i logged on. it would be nice if i could go to a black screen background.
Here's some ideas I've used before.
How about an arcade? To play in the arcade, you earn arcade money from the amount of threads and posts you have posted.
This would help encourage activity, hopefully of quality content.
Also, how about a featured ride? I use a program embedded in the header that randomly selects a member's ride from a pool of pictures. Each time a user clicks a link or refreshes the page, a different image loads. I resized all the images to be smaller than 300 pixels wide, which in turn makes the load on the server lighter and doesn't affect load times. Here's a snapshot of what it looks like.

An image of a Titan on the banner would help out.. especially with the newbies.. they might look at it first glance and assume we're all from Tennessee.. lol jk. I think we should build off Misfit's idea though! Instead of an randomized image.. how about having a member's truck having to take a specific shot/angle.. then having several TO banners made up.. and each banner is displayed for x amount of time. For example, Shaggy say you make a banner with the image of your truck for the entire month of February, then we all vote on who it could be next month, and etc...
I say negative on chat because that will kill the forum. If not now, eventually. Giving the members a few options on the site layout will keep them interested. It's like a guy.. you're talking to them and all of the sudden they go "Oooh shiny!" LOL.. don't even lie on this boys, it's true!
Another, hahaha.. sorry for the comment rant here,... buuut.. instead of being labeled as "member" to "full access member" have the names switch up for every x number of posts to something Nissan related..
a banner is in the works..
The banner will change the look for shure!
Yea. The banner looks Nice
i would definetaly have to say some music for the site gotta love some music
Emo?
^I was thinking heavy metal...LOL i dont do emo
What I like from the other sites is the "Thanks" button.
I think we need a "Adult" section for like us to show real "NSFW" pics...lol would be cool. They have it on dezertranger.com. Only people 18+ can access it and its nice...lol
Truck of the Month
I'm with shaggy on this one leave the porn off the truck site.
How would live chat bring in more members/activity?
Hmmm... too many guys on this forum.. you guys start hanging out in chat and you're all going to pick fights with each other like middle school cheerleaders. Don't even deny it!
Just having people in the chat room talking Titans, joking around, hanging out, etc. is "more activity". While posting threads is good, talking live, real time is alot better IMO. You get to know people better when you talki live and thats a draw for people to join your new community. However, if it ends up like LaQueen said, alot of fighting & flaming other people online , then your better off without. I belong to other sites with chatrooms and we have a blast, its like hangout with good neighbors..
Well, I see what you mean and will look into it. What chatroom are they running, the brand name of the chatroom software.
You all need to post more!!
Not sure what happened. Why did the site have members stop posting showing up?
