There should be a mood system in a future version

[cheatmaster30]

I know, it's not something many suggest, but I've seen it used on pretty much half the sites I go to in existance, so it's kind of shocking such a commonly used mod isn't default either here or in vBulletin. Indeed, I'd say far more people use it than statuses (no offence here, but status is something I only ever see on Facebook and the like, not forums), so perhaps in 3.2 or something?

I think he wants it in the core. :unsure:

Might just be me, but I'd personally prefer something such as this stay as a 3rd party mod. The status is more flexible, you can say what you're doing, what's happening, or your mood, etc.

I don't want to see that in core because it's not a compliment of what a forum is intended to do. The prime motive in forums is facilitating communication. A moods system is more suitable as a 3rd party application.

No vote from me. This is one for a mod developer.

I doubt that this will be included in the core product, this is the kind of feature that we usually leave to mod developers :)

[cheatmaster30]

That's a good point, but what makes status so much more a feature that should be a core feature if few use it? More I'd say would use this, and I'd far more likely trust officially written features than third party modifications.

[bfarber]

I disagree. I think status is a lot more relevant and useful, and generic, than "moods".

So you mean that setting a mood isn't a form of communication? :rolleyes:

It is but it is not part of a core function of a forum. The facebook POKE button is a form of communication and I think it's a useless feature. Wouldn't want to see that feature in IP.Board's core.

we used to use it in UBB but it was rarely used in reality.

Not exactly top of my list I'm afraid.
