So, I was just browsing the forums, and then I saw an AMAZING idea! It wasn't very well formatted, but it was still amazing. It had around 50 views. My idea is that there will be a “marked” feature on the suggestions forum. You will be able to mark posts in the suggestions forum, and that way more Scratchers would click on that amazing post you want everyone to see. And if that suggestion gets around 100 or 200 marks, then maybe it will be sent auto emailed to the ST for pending acceptance. The ST don't have to go through all those countless pages to find the suggestions they want to see, and we can get their attention! Win-win scenario!

Negatives

  • Sometimes Scratchers will make tons and tons of alts to mark their post. Solution: Make it so that only one email may mark a post. Or make it so that it's only one IP may mark a post.

  • Scratchers might start just marking all of the posts. Solution: Add a 60 second rule to marking posts. 120 for new Scratchers.

Well that's all the negatives I can think of! Time to see if this doesn't get drowned in the forums..

I'm not sure what you mean. Who can mark posts?

I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are. - Mewtwo

Would there be a button to mark a topic?

Just because a suggestion has a lot of views doesn't mean it is a good suggestion. This would add more to the ST's already hard job.
Plus, this would make competition for getting their post “amasing”, and a lot of clickbait topics would show up.
I'm confused, views would have nothing to do with marks.

Yes. The button would be next to the follow discussion button.
