crossfire web 2.0

I think crossfire needs to join the web 2.0 train but I can't think of features that could be added that would actually be useful that would involve "social networking ideas", the use of ajax or bubbly graphics ;x

any ideas?

1: A downloads tab
2: Different templates to choose from
3: Shoutbox
4: New banner!!! (the current sux ballerz tbh)
5: A weekly gfx-design contest (SOTW or LPOTW)
6: A more inviting website design (the current is boring as hell)
7: A box that can be filled with several themes and that you can adjust to your own likings (like football scores for the football-fanatics) or something similar...
8: A weather indicator
9: A picture upload system similar to for example imageshack.us
10: A myspace-like user profile page (so with adjustable backgrounds, music, and all that shizz)
11: A fun-video tab (links to funny youtube shizz directly played on the website)
12: A minigames page
13: A weekly lotto (you can enter crosspoints and if you win the lotto you win crosspoints for example)
14: A betting system (crosspoints too) which allows you to bet on matches for example...
15: An ignore function (mamalukes's idea)
16: An 18+ zone xD

I'll post more if I can think of it...
10: A myspace-like user profile page (so with adjustable backgrounds, music, and all that shizz)

No... just... no... not ever.

I don't like myspace too, but it looks fun to me having something in that style at this website...

Good points though!

1. What downloads ? You have movies and configs, what else do you want to download ? What do you mean "tab" ?
5. Does this have anything at all to do with crossfire ?
6. You're free to propose alternatives
7. We're not the MSN frontpage
8. Pointless
9. Use imageshack.us
10. Oh god no
11. cfr. 10
12. cfr. 10
13. cfr. 10
14. Use www.gamestv.org
15. Good idea
16. We pretty much already are a 18+ zone ..

As far as I'm concerned I would consider 2, 4 and 15.

1: downloads like et recourses, mods, that shizz
3: it's very different (it's more like a chatbox)
5: lotsa designers in here and it keeps the community active (it's fun too)
6: i'll try making something (very busy these days though)
7: that's why you can personalize it (just like the widgets idea from zodiac)
8: u're right about that
9: a picture uploader on this website can give you much advantage (like faster loading of pictures)
10: why not, it would be fun to be able to adjust your PROFILE to your LIKINGS...
11: true
12: it's fun and can keep the community at this website
13: it isn't a lotto for real money, but for crossfire points (just 4 fun)
14: that's not an argument, i mean, every aspect of this website is used on other websites too, does that mean we have to go to that websites? it's directly linked to et, so why the hell not (keeps ur community active too)
16: I got banned a few weeks ago for posting an 18+ pic

1. http://arni.name
5. And what would you be designing ? Who would judge it ? What prize do you get ? How many people would actually participate ? Maybe 5 ? This idea seems utterly useless to me.
7. I know you can personalize it, you told me that, but again, we're not the MSN frontpage.
9. And it can also bring me a lot of extra work and possible security holes just because you're too lazy to go to imageshack
10. MYSPACE. Got that ?
12. http://www.spelspelen.nl
13. Please .. just .. no.
14. Do you perhaps recall the complete failure of crossfight ?
16. And rightfully so

A lot, if not all of these ideas seem to be just because you're too lazy to go to the actual sites that already have this, and you want it right here on crossfire because then you have to type in 20 characters less to form the URL to those sites.

Get able to choose what you want to have in the columns to the left and right, and be able to move the columns around as you want.

Also get able to choose different colors, and get able to custumize the links in the menubar.
Almost get able to customize everything really =]
best idea yet... widgets they are called and would be useful
Parent
hmm now you mention ajax, it might be nice when users would have the possibility to change the boxes from their places
if you still dont get what I mean, check http://www.google.com/ig?hl=en drag&drop system :P
leave a clan!

EDIT : founder of the xfire team cant be kicked!
better design imo

this looks so 90's
ah yes, forgot logs/quotes, can be funny as well
i like it like it is
Just keep it like this its nais
multiplayer flashgames!
idea steal!!

ignore function
aaah yes thats a good one, i'll put that in my list :)
Parent
As I already mentioned: More functions and options for newswriters. Graphix like xRio's should be default and changeable.
Here's one: auto-ban on posting "1st"
That video makes me want to punch that guy so bad
Parent
Used to have that, you removed it ~/
Parent
ah maybe a view topic/journal since last visit
embedded video's
[+] function
ignore function
button to download ET

more markup tags

allow you to share edit rights to a newspost, tutorial, articles, etc with other users


not really 2.0, but what can you expect from a peon
A sticky for Quotes, and maybe some different forums for sports/hardware/games
