Post subject:  Improving Amia Format for Posting Suggestion.

Hiya. Further to Letum's latest post and Glim's comments I thought I'd start a discussion with regards to developing an easily parsed and efficient format for entering suggestions (since forms/process work is a big part of my employment currently).

Off the top of my head I'd say something to go forwards with could be as simple as:
Topic:
Date:
Area of Improvement: (be succinct!) (eg, Rules, Area, Faction, NPC's - this should be a one-two word answer)
Current Situation: (a paragraph, tops)
Potential Improvement: (make this as clear and as simple as possible)

~~~


There can then be a follow up once the suggestion has been mulled over and appropriately done, an After-Action-Report.

Topic:
Date:
Action Taken:
Further Actions Needed: (Yes/No)
If Yes then detail:

~~~


I hope this is helpful and I welcome suggestions and comments. I hope we can get a decent discussion going (and if people are content with it, I'll repost this onto the IA forum hoho!)

I like this suggestion, it'd be a good foundation to work from.

The Improving Amia forum is going to be getting an overhaul soon, and a posting template can easily be included in that.

Cool cool cool. I definitely think a more objective oriented approach can move the IA forum away from being a talkingshop/battleground. I hope it means that instead IA can be thought of as akin to a suggestion box from the players, as well as a venue to air solutions to topical issues with a degree of consensus by players and the team alike. Both of these styles of advocacy and suggestion can be put into the format we have here, and I think that this justifies formalising the format. I hope that it is helpful that the format is somewhat similar to the existing request format though with more emphasis on clarity and brevity.

No probs. When things become clear to a point that I feel like I can action it positively, I tend to. :lol:
