Thats very true. When i first joined, i was scared to post! i was worried incase i made myself look a Pratt in front of everyone who seemed to know each other so well. (frankly I'm still a bit scared now!!) and i still don't know many people. But every one seemed friendly enough and i felt alot better after the 'clothing game' in chat. ;D

1. Which boards do you visit most often?
Show Off, Open Source, Sig of the Week
2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?
I think one of the mainworst area's about SolidSnake Designs is probably the Arrivals and Departure Lounge. I just don't really think it is needed, afterall, isn't that what the Chillout is there for?
3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?
The best area, in my opinion, is the Community Projects. They make SSD fun by bringing the community together to participate in competitions, writing / reading a news paper, and contributing to the YearBook. Overall this is the best part of SSD.
4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one.
Usually everyday
5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design?
Yes
6. How do you think the website could be improved?
Hmm, I don't really think it can be improved... apart from maybe a new site design. I admit that the current is smooth and classy, but it has been around for quite a while now, and some members might be getting a tad bored of it.
7. How do you think the forum could be improved?
Same as the Website.

1. Which boards do you visit most often?SOTW Code Database Debates 2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?The SSD Yearbook. If you weren't here back in the day, your sort of shut out of it. Just like when people go to highschool...if your just coming in...you really don't care what past things were happening or who won what because your new and only the "upperclassmen" really would care to look back on this book of "memories." It could possibly make newer members feel not welcomed...like they would have to popular or something just to get in the yearbook for the next year. [/rambling] 3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?SOTW, it gives you the sense of accomplishment if you are chosen as a winner. If you don't win, it makes you want to work harder so you will next time. 4. How often do you visit SSD? Everyday 5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design?Frickin Merlin, Yes! 6. How do you think the website could be improved?  Whoa...there's a website too? Where? I surely haven't seen it.... 7. How do you think the forum could be improvedSo many members and yet so little to do....once you've read through all the boards and posted where you could.... you just have to sit and wait until someone posts...so you leave until another time. I would want to see something here that will keep the members running around the boards to keep activity at its ultimate high. I agree on adding a gaming arcade and posting high scores for everyone to see or something...

all boards about graphic and photography and also Code Support

Yes
6. How do you think the website could be improved?

1. Which boards do you visit most often? Coder's Galore Chillout Depends on my mood... 2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why? I wouldn't say the WORST but the Premade area needs a lot of work. Many new people are looking for graphics and stuff. The board is where you SUBMIT the graphics. People come there LOOKING for graphics because of the name "premade images" in there. The spam posts make it very unorganized. (Not that E isnt' doing a good job  ) 3. What do you feel the best area is? And why? Code Database. There are many variaty of codes there. Although you have to go to g101 and zd for simple codes like removing bars, buttons, etc., SSD has very advanced codes . MIght want to improve on the RPG section though. 4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one. EverydayEvery few days
Every week
Every two or three weeks
Every month5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design? YesNo - v5 should stay for a long time. 6. How do you think the website could be improved? I noticed the submit tutorial links could only be access by clicking on tutorials on the menu bar. I usually use the side menu bars. I click on photoshop to submit tuts but it's not there so I have to click the tut link in the menu bar to submit one. I think you should have a submit button on every tutorial page for each category. 7. How do you think the forum could be improved? Activity is the main problem I think on SSD... member signatures might help advertise SSD a little bit. It may bring members, but not activity. So....... I'm going to use g101 as an example. About a month ago, g101 started a scavenger hunt. We need to look all around the forum for dorkxd.com v3 letters (it's hard). Anyways... before that, I wasn't that active... just roaming around looking for some codes and graphcis. But the scavenger hunt hooked me on and I became more and more active. So what I'm saying is, get your members interested, you'll get activity. Also, people used to come here for images. The premade images are on the website!!!!! They go to the premade submissions board but they post in the wrong section. I'm saying: Bring back premade images to the forum. |

Im new to Solid Snake, so I will attempt to answer as many as possible.  1. Which boards do you visit most often?Well I favor General Boards and Showoff boards. So it would have to be the Chillout Board and the Show Off board.  Just catch my intrest the most. 2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?The Open Source board, I dont know if its new or not but from what I can see doesnt get to near as much activity as other boards. If it was just created then its doing fine. If not I suggest something to help promote the board and get more resources in there.  3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?Chillout board, or Show Off board. I enjoy posting in both areas and Im most active in them or was in the past. Ill rate here and there as you will see. Most of my post will come from those two boards. 4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one. Everyday: I just joined but I left about 5-10 forums in the past two months. I am currently only at this forum so you can expect me to be here everyday unless an event pops up. Like me going on vacation. 
5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design?Yes: To tell the truth I would. There has been so many new concepts added to Proboards im intrested in seeing what SSD can produce. No6. How do you think the website could be improved?Ill have to check it out...Get some more premades in some areas such as smilies. I will help out with that over time. 7. How do you think the forum could be improved?Its pretty sexy as is but there is one item that bothers me here. The UBBC icons. They arent bad but I dont think they come to the requirement SSD needs. They are of lower quality then the rest of the forum. ~Chase |

1. Which boards do you visit most often?Chillout Showoff Code Database 2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?I don't feel that SSD really has a worst area. 3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?Probably either Chillout or the Code Database. Chilliout because there's always someone to talk to or something to talk about and the Code Database because of how many different codes are in it. 4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one.Everyday Every few daysEvery week Every two or three weeks Every month 5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design? YesNo 6. How do you think the website could be improved? Maybe more resources. More templates and images. 7. How do you think the forum could be improved? More codes. That's is what most people come here for, so if you have more codes than it is sure to atract more members. Even I originly came here for the codes.

1. Which boards do you visit most often?
Chillout.
2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?
Chillout. Hah. Ironic, huh? Mainly because it's spam haven, but it's the only place that I care to visit anymore.
3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?
Suggestions. because although most suggestions are not thought out, and quite ridiculous, the well thought-out ones are taken into serious consideration by the staff, and sometimes implemented. (Year book.) The place where the members with IQs higher than 8 get a say so.
4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one.
Every two or three weeks
5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design?
Sure, but that's just because I like everything to be constantly changing.
6. How do you think the website could be improved?
By adding an entire section dedicated to Jello and Myself. Two of the (self-proclaimed) greatest SSD members/moderators of all time.
7. How do you think the forum could be improved?
It can't be improved really. As a design board, it's basically perfect. It's got things for members to participate in, and it's got a few general boards that cover everyone else's interests.

1. Which boards do you visit most often?
Chillout
Fun Zone
Debates (VERY rare)
Duels Board
Arrivals/Departures
Suggestions (somtimes)
The Herald Staff
Sig of The Week
The Herald
2. What do you feel the worst area of SSD is? And why?
Um...well IMO don't really feel like there is. If something pops in my head, then I will edit this part
3. What do you feel the best area is? And why?
Chillout, and the sub-boards there. Why? Because it shows what a great community that SSD has along with the tutorials and coding support and what not. Though I will admit that some abuse the Chillout board.
4. How often do you visit SSD? Select one.
Everyday, though I have been gone for like 5 days due to stupid Comcast having my internet down -_-
5. Would you like to see a new forum and website design?
I will agree with Assassinator on this one. I would love to, this one does get bland after a while. But I do like this one, no complaints there.
6. How do you think the website could be improved?
Don't really know, not on the website enough to give any help on that one. Though I should get over there
7. How do you think the forum could be improved?
Honestly? Just a few staff members with a bit of increased activity, though I know they have lives of there own. And maybe a few more affiliates would help. Other than that. No clue.
