Page loading needs to be optimized; I use a high-speed DSL connection, but even with that, I experience slowdowns.
Exactly. Pay attention to my signature... By the way...

Favorite of the Gods; 185290
I came up with something else. So, a user wants to register. They register, and immediately there's a mandatory question: Favorite race. They choose it. And when they send a message, their profile shows their favorite race: Mages. They can only choose one, and therefore, we can send them a special smiley specific to their race.
Are you sure this is feasible from a technical point of view?
Regarding the smileys: what do you think, should we replace all existing smileys with ones from Quip, so that we have a consistent style for all smileys?

You can change the forum's appearance styles in the options;) I, for example, don't have the Heroes 5 style.
I was talking about the website itself, not the forum.

.

You misunderstood me. I mean leaving all the emoticons as they are. Just make the mage emoticon unavailable to Orcs and others, etc.

Smilies can be implemented if there are appropriate images that the forum members approve.

Regarding signatures, I don't think they should be limited, but a referendum could be held on this topic.

Why not? I think that when it exceeds 100KB, it's already too much.

It feels like the topic has drifted into irrelevant chatter! Does HeroesWorld really need new emoticons right now? Let's put that on the back burner! There are much more important topics to discuss! I request that the administration delete the useless posts, including this one!

Um... what does he actually need so badly? Then suggest something of your own.

1) Changes are good; the main thing is that there aren't more lags. If you're going to redraw something, make it something neutral... I assume we're talking about the font, text layout, etc.? After all, you can change the color (background) by choosing a different skin. Or do you want to make it uniform?
2) That's not up to me... :D
3) Wow, this is the biggest point... So many suggestions have already been made on the forum, and about emoticons (they were posted in some topic, so you don't necessarily need to use the ones from the game; there aren't many of them :\), and people wrote about the races, and a lot more... It's hard to remember now...
Regarding signatures, I think they should be limited (especially all sorts of pictures, because some people have too many of them, or they are too saturated)... (I'll reduce mine soon too).
And, most importantly, people want the chat back, which supported good activity on the forum.
4) I don't have any ideas for this point yet...

P.S. If I remember anything else about point 3, I'll write it down.

Let me dispel any misconceptions about having one person for each task. One person means they will be the lead and responsible for that task. Assistants are essential; the main thing is to establish this hierarchy to avoid organizational issues in the future. We will create a full version, as well as a simplified one. We will bring back the chat when we decide on the council members – then we will also consider strategic directions. The reputation system – I will put this up for discussion in a separate thread, and we will decide there. **A huge request:** everyone who is interested in joining the council, please respond in this thread or in a private message – we need to know our heroes.

http://smiles.predkov.net/angels/ – you can download Demon, Angel, and Alien emoticons there. You can download the entire set for Angels and Demons!

2) Make the forum easier to use; I think not only I notice the constant slowdowns. Perhaps we can solve this issue at the hardware level.
In my opinion, this also depends on the forum engine. vBulletin itself is quite heavy, and other forums using this engine don't stand out in terms of loading speed either. I think it's necessary to make the forum easier to use, even if it means making some sacrifices (reducing the maximum size of signatures and avatars, reducing the number of creature images in the profile, or even eliminating them altogether).
3) We will develop minor features that our community wants; there are opportunities for this (this is an open question – I would like to hear suggestions; we will save this point for last).
Some of this has already been mentioned. First of all, I think it's the chat. As for the emoticons, I support a complete transition to the Quip ones, as they are among the most beautiful and familiar to many.




As for reputation, I personally think it would be better to remove what we see in the upper right corner of each post and create a reputation change log in each user's profile.
I also suggest reducing the required number of posts to reach level 14...
Levels will lose their meaning if you remove the creature images in the profile, as you suggest. Unless, of course, you only make text-based titles... :)

Let's conclude our discussion about emoticons here. As soon as we have someone on the council responsible for point 8:
8) Strategically-minded (idea generator)
we will immediately have Quip-style emoticons and will put the division of emoticons into layers up for discussion.

That's why we need to form the HeroesWorld Team to quickly solve such tasks. When there is a responsible person, it is always clear who to contact.

And in the meantime, the HeroesWorld Team is being successfully formed; a preliminary list will be available soon. So, if you want to join, write to us; there is still time. All applications will be considered until Monday.
And regarding whether a position is filled or not – that concept doesn't exist; all applications will be considered, and the team will be formed from all submitted applications.

P.S. We continue to resolve technical issues with the forum.

We will continue to develop and implement smaller features requested by our community; the possibilities for this exist (this is an open question – we would like to hear suggestions; we will save this item for last, as it is the most interesting).
1.
Here is a small suggestion:
Create a database of players and their rankings.
It would look something like this:
Player 1 goes to a special form where they indicate who they played with and what game they played, and the result. After that, the second player receives an email with a button to confirm. After confirmation, the ranking is recalculated.

Naturally, a coordinator is needed, to whom players can complain if necessary, and who can influence something.

All rankings should be easily accessible and in a prominent location.

This will attract a large number of players.

2.
Also, from the main page of the site, there should be easy access to materials about Heroes: reference guides, history, and so on.
(The design should be slightly redone; the large images on the right interfere with the normal perception of information).

3.
The news is updated infrequently (on the main page); we need more contributors with access, and, of course, a news feed moderator.

4.
The design of the forum itself is very pleasing; the pleasant, non-intrusive background of the Lords of the North does not tire the eyes (it would be good to create skins for other versions, as tastes differ).

5.
The option of a light version for modem users is also very good.

Ah, yes, it would also be good to automate the clan system, including creating incentives for clan wars

I've already heard about you :) I'd be glad to see you on the council :)
Regarding the rating and tournaments, I think it can be easily implemented as a separate website (or on a subdomain), where you can track not only clan wars but also just rankings - it's not difficult to implement. This is another point for the council to discuss.

Regarding the second point, this needs to be taken into account when developing the new design.

Because of the third point, a whole department will be created to establish feedback with other communities.

The forum is nice, but it's cumbersome - a lightweight version is a must. I have a 25K connection with unlimited bandwidth, but I wouldn't mind having something that loads quickly :)
ah, yes, it would be good to automate the clan system as well
In what way? :)

P.S. You're a natural idea generator and a person who can plan the development of Hv :) Including the development of other game projects (point 5) - we're waiting :)
