I like the idea of creating contests. They're great to show of the user's skills and hopefully will raise the activity of the community.

Exactly! It would be really great if there were contests in categories like Quests, Level Design, Model Edit etc.
The winner could be featured in a community project like Maruum was.

Quests

Now that you mention quest contests.. That's actually something where i would join. Nice idea!

Contents need rules, topics and rewards, and obviously multiple of those. As always, be happy to suggest stuff, the more elaborate the better. Just like with the ranks. We still don't have any input on how to actually distribute special ranks.

Me too, I love writing quests and story telling in general. Would be great

Ofcourse, we can't go too far with the rewards, no one is investing money into this. Like I said, the contests could be used to create stuff for a community project and I think that being featured and credited in something like that would be enough of a reward for the winner. There could be some small rewards too, like forum badges or whatever (I've always liked colored names ). Thought I can't come up with something relevant right now.

The rules I think would be the easiest part.
I'm really inspired by Concept Art Sessions website, where you choose 2 or 3 tags and you just draw based on them. Something like that could be utilized here, tags and some simple rules would be given at the start of the contest and the competitors would create stuff based on them.
Sure some general rules should be there too, but that will come with time.

Yes, I know, I understood. The point is: The moderators here do not have the great ideas you guys have. Thus, best just suggest a full pack of how exactly to do stuff. Then we can see if that format is possible (e.g. having that tag stuff, or ranks or features, or anything, mostly technical details), and we can hit it off. But please, not ideas but actual plans. At least for me. I don't know how others feel about this.

This site is nothing near communism and the change of removing your fancy colors has changed nothing in that only to show that most of the colored people were just wanking along based on their color, and now without color they only complain and instantly are less active.

Do stuff for the community, help people, give us a reason to have a fancy title or rank or color, or just fuck off, if you can't live with being a normal member of society. Thanks.

Not only that, also a nice reason to create a fancy c++ script again.

schlumpf assassinating verbally, without remorse. I gotta love how you destroy people with comments

[axel0099]

schlumpf rewards are rewards and they should never be taken away, you can use whatever argument you want but that doesn't change the fact that these people earned whatever rank they got.
you guys may think it's better but at least confront those people with it, I don't care about those who do not have these ranks, and apparently only those people have commented on this very topic and approved it.
By rank I mean the colors obviously.

[schlumpf]

The fact that even though you have two huge banners of being special, but still you're complaining about the name's color, is just fucked up and shows how you don't give a fuck about the community and should probably have never got that rank to begin with. The rank is still there, just less easily confused with being a moderator. Nobody took away anything of you but a colored name. People still see you as being special. If you want to be more special than being special, then god, I can't help you. If you always did things only because of a color, not to help newcomers or something, imho you never deserved the rank to begin with.

Schlumpfs name is blue as well

I have the GM Isle Explorer title, my signature sucks and I don't even have a profile picture  :|

Come on guys like I said in the previous post this is becoming childish, let's just mod and be happy

It sounds like you're accusing me of doing nothing to the community. It is wrong. I've always cared about the community. But if the community is trying to equalize me with others who for now did less or nothing, it is pointless to expect any activity from me in return. I am just an example. I bet other ex-colorednamed people feel the same.
