As for DKYG badges, I'm leaning against it. It's nothing personal against any of you guys but since this is a joint effort between a couple of sites, we'd then need to make tSR badges as well and then pretty much everyone would have something there and it would require a lot of manual group moving. I realize you guys are actually migrating here entirely and tSR is not, and that's something I'll take into consideration but I'd like to discuss it with the rest of staff first.
What I may do, if some sort of DYKG original designation is deemed appropriate, is create a publicly-joinable group with moderated members, assign one of the originals (maybe you, Cuccos, or the one who originally suggested it?) the moderator position of the group, and have them approve joins from original members so I don't actually have to keep shuffling people around.
However, like I said, this isn't a definite thing. Just a proposed solution should it become definite in the future.
Oh, and as for downloadable mobile apps, are you talking about the forum or the site as a whole? Forum-wise, there's a special mobile theme that works well already. Site-wise, it does function on mobile devices but can be a little difficult to navigate on small screens, I admit. I'm not familiar enough with iOS or Android programming to create a native app though.
Ok cool. I didn't know so much was going on. I came back from a weekend away and kind of got thrown over here haha. I'm slowly understanding what's happening! I'm just glad my question made sense haha. I totally agree that the rest of the staff should have an input. I didn't realize other forums were coming over too.
That original-moderated group sounds fun. I don't think I would be a good mod though. I do recommend BumblebeeCody, SERIOUSLY THOUGH or A Zombie Riot if it does go through. They're way better than I would ever be.
As for the mobile app, I was mostly asking for the forum. I just checked through 'safari' on my phone and it works well, so I retract that request :P
