Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted August 1, 201113 yr If the "Poke" feature would be available on invisionboard, just as the one from facebook, i believe it could awaken some 'lost' members. For example, on my community, people know each other, they hang out with their motorcycles from time to time, so they are more buddies than friends. Also, i suggested some time ago, tagging topics and photos with friend's names or community members would also be appreciated.
August 1, 201113 yr Ehhh, it would be ok. But I think it would be getting a little to much like facebook. Considering there is already a like system.
August 1, 201113 yr The only reason for adding this would be, as you said, to be able to "wake up" members who haven't been to the community for a while. Not really sure how much use it would get since the admin should send out mass-emails to the inactive users instead as a wake-up call.
August 1, 201113 yr I think there would be no need at all for a feature like this on a forum. Go poke people on FB.
August 2, 201113 yr Sure, add a poke, but then get rid of the "like this" buttons. I can only handle so much Facebook related crap on my site lol.
August 2, 201113 yr This would be more suited to a hook ;) Also IPB might be crossing the copyright line if they copy EVERY facebook related profile trait
