    I just dropped by here to see if there was going to be a name change, and there is already discussion. I'm excited to see what it it: Personally, "the Cantina" would be great.

    Yes there will be. The name change will happen 1 month after TFA hits theaters.

    P.S. The Cantina is taken. ;)

    Been thinking on the "old news" rating. I don't think it should be a red rating; Yellow rating would seem to fit it more correctly. Since not every person can read the 10,000 posts on the forums, it would be hard not to post something that has already been posted.
    Who wants a red rating anyways? I sure don't. :D

    Recently I was thinking the same thing. Now it's done. The "old news" rating is neutral now.

    I was just looking at the old posts on this thread, and seen the app idea from last year. Just wanted to know, is that still going to happen?
    The app doesn't seem to difficult to create if it was only the blog Part of the website. You could just use a RSS reader as the app... :rolleyes: if that works. Then again I have no clue about apps. :confused:

    In the very beginning of this thread someone asked about the creation of an app for the website last year. On page one of this thread, first reply.

    Oh, yes. Well, it has to wait.
    Right now we are finishing our new comments section for the blog which will include commenting with your Cantina account After that we will be starting our own podcast show and then a youtube coverage of the news. Then we will make our site and forum mobile friendly and then we will make additions to the Casion Cantina, and then we can think of a new app. :)

    I made an off-hand post in a thread I don't remember about including a Mace Windu-themed rating for:
    "Cool"
    [​IMG]
    Or "Badass."
    [​IMG]
    And I think Sam J would be a fine addition to the ratings :)
    [EDIT]Actually, come to think of it, this one might be better for "cool" (even though it's not exactly Star Wars)

    May I suggest an automatic thread creation, whenever you guys post a new story?

    People can then discuss the topic in detail and with ease.

    Great idea! I'm so sick of anonymous poster's going on crazy rants for what seems like no reason at all,its like a relief coming into the cantina for a more Civilised discussion .
    I must say during the comiccon event the blog traffic was massive,there was constant negativity everywhere and I was embarrassed to be a part of it.
    I'm sure the majority of members would agree this would be an awesome feature.
    Please tptb make this happen.
    P.s. I'm going to be embarrassed if this feature already exists and I just haven't been able to find it.it's hard to navigate this site on my phone

    On mobile the main site is giant and I have to zoom out quite a bit but when zoomed out all the way the page is way too small. Is there not an optimal mobile version yet?

    We're working on it. :)
    The issue with the zoom will be fixed in a few hours. The new mobile version will be ready in a few days.

    Could we implement a bitcoin system and connect it to the credits earned from the Cantina? Get enough, redeem, and get real life prizes! I don't know much about Bitcoin, but I did see something similar to my idea in the movie, Dope, which was very cool.

    In the movie? No, it was a system through which drugs could be bought and sold without government surveillance though a darknet, but in a more legal sense, the credits we earn here could be converted, possibly? I don't know.
