Since natbyte said he's already subscribed to xenforo, I did some googling and found some neat new stuff that could be implemented if the admins are okay with it. :3 1. Arcade (free) Testing, as its alpha software So I found a Xenforo compatible arcade, where you can play all kind of classic games and if you're the highest score in a game it displays your name! We could perhaps have new ranks for the person who has the highest score combined, or someone who maintains a highscore in a game for a month or something! It's in beta, but I don't see much complaint about the add-on + its last update was this month, so they're actively working on it. Link: http://xfarcade.com/threads/xenforo-arcade-download.123/ 2. /me command but for forums! (free) Added This ones similar to /me in-game, you type (in a post) /me blah blah blah, and it turns it into a specific color with * before it, not too important but it's kinda fun. Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/chat-style-me-command.1377/ 3. Newest Thread (free) Out Of Date Shows what's the most recent thread in the sidebar, shouldn't take up much space so I guess putting it right above the server IP box would be good? Link: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/tenshi-latest-thread-sidebar.7533/ 4. Shoutbox (free, then there's a Pro version) Added - Purchased Pro Installed Friday! I honestly was looking for a chat box that's displayed on the forum homepage that's wider, but this is a close second. It's a relatively small chat box, doesn't look that neat to me but can't really judge it until it's installed, and if possible make it bigger and place it right above the forum? Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/taigachat-ajax-shoutbox.115/ 5. Chat Module (paid, but there's a demo) Shoutbox we have now is enough This reminds me of the Facebook chat, it's a bar on the bottom of your screen that shows who's online so you can chat with them! It's faster than PM'ing, available in multiple languages and works on phones as well. Can also be used as a way for people to contact staff quickly, perhaps turn it into a 'contact staff' bar? Link: http://www.cometchat.com/xenforo-chat 6. Advanced Forum Statistics (free) Causes lag in the way it executes data capture Better statistics for the forums, this could be on the top of the homepage + may replace the Newest thread add-on, as it gives people all kinds of statistics from the hottest thread to the top posters to the newest posts! Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/advanced-forum-statistics.597/ 7. (by techteller) Tag Addon (free) Added - Removed buggy conflicts with other addons Allows you to tag other people in your posts, using the @<name> syntax. They will recieve an alert if they have been tagged. Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-tag-me.386/ 8. Herocraft Server Status! (free) Its not free but I may consider it This add-on shows your server status & player count, also being able to expand to show you the names of all the players online, it also supports multiple servers! Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/herocraft-development-minecraft-server-status-block.754/ 9. Steam Integration (free) I know a lot of people here have steam, so this would be pretty cool for all of us to connect outside of mine craft, this lets you attach your steam account so people can add you as a friend/see your profile and status! Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/steam-authentication-integration.1336/ 10. User Ribbons (free) Added Displays a ribbon right under your avatar to show your ranks, I know there's a rank name under our acc names already but this one can display more than one. New ranks could be added based on your like counts (different ranks as you get more likes), Post counts, and arcade score! Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/rt-user-rank-ribbons.832/ UPDATED 8/21: 11. Most Recent Thread sidebar(paid: 6 EUR) Basically a sidebar in the forum homepage that shows the most recent threads posted. Displays the thread title, the user that posted the thread, and the time. Works with forum ranks so threads will only show up if the user is able to view them. I'd prefer this over the chatbox announcing whenever someone posts a thread tbh. Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/recent-threads-sidebar-1-2x.2173/ 12. Most Recent Posts sidebar(paid: 6 EUR) Similar to the most recent threads sidebar, but this one shows the replies made to threads, rather than the threads themselves. Not 100% sure if it also includes threads posted, but if it does i'd say this one would be better to have instead of the thread-only sidebar. Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/most-recent-posts-sidebar-1-2x.2172/ 13. Today's Birthdays(free) Title pretty much explanatory, it's not really an important plugin but it'd be nice to know people's birthdays on the day. ^^ Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/today-birthdays-1-2x.2197/ 14. XenMoods(free) Users are able to select from a list of 'moods' that's displayed under their username, such as relaxed, sleepy, grumpy, etc. Also just another 'fun' plugin, not very important. Link: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/xenmoods.10/ If you have any addon you'd like to suggest feel free to post here and i'll add it to the list (and give you credit!), don't forget to provide a link!
/me learned today that he should get random people to post xenforo plugins if he wants nat to implement them
/me has another plugin! http://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-tag-me.386/ Allows you to tag other people in your posts, using the @<name> syntax. They will recieve an alert if they have been tagged.
