I would like to see summoning disappear. It cuts down on meaningful conversation, because people go in, dump their thoughts in a thread, and never read it again unless they get summoned. Also, during the Tour de Vizzed and VCS, some people cheat the system by summoning the local mods to report threads, giving them an easy +1 post count. The whole thing just reeks and kills the spirit of posting in a forum.

I'd also like to see the rules/faq updated to be an actual rules/faq, instead of a messy list of "do's and don'ts" and a rundown of commonly used phrases that is out of date (five trust points, Really?)

It would be nice if David ever made a proper search function for the site, or at least incorporated a Google Custom Search page. This seems like a very obvious thing to have, but Vizzed is missing it still.

I'd like to see the forum brought out of the dinosaur age with some HTML5 and AJAX scripting here and there, just to make some things a little easier on users. Vizzed should check when you make a post to make sure that nobody else posted between when you started typing and finished.

It would be nice if David allowed users to submit skins for the board. We have a lot of very good web designers here, and I think it would add a lot to the community if he would at least consider letting some people add their own flair to the board.

The Profile page is a mess... I don't even know where to start with that, but it needs to be clean up hard core.

I would like to see an overhaul of the Viz system, because as it stands, Viz is less that worthless.

And I'd like to see a userbase that isn't so concerned with post counts and experience points, and more involved with getting to know each other, being friends, and having fun. Being the best isn't worth anything, especially not on an internet site that nobody's ever heard of.

I want a lot of things improved but some aren't important or can wait.

My first goal is to become trusted. I really want to experience everything that trusted members can do like the layout editor and the extra forums.

I also want to help more people. In this year so far I think I helped at least 30 people and I am very proud of that.

I want to see the community grow. There are a lot of people in the RGR and most probably don't even know what the board is. I think if David did that catching thing again where you need to find people in the RGR and try to make them post more people will post.

On vizzed I want to try the battle arena. It seems cool to battle other people. Maybe you could bet or something.

I really think Viz should have more meaning. Right now it is for accessories, things in the vizzed market, or bragging. There should be more items in the item shop and maybe even a place to suggest items specifically.

This isn't important but I think the thing that says how many people are on a certain page is broken. I have seen guests on pages like the page that shows up after you post.

My last thing that I really want is to see more meaning in posts. If users put more meaning there would be less spam and the board would be more fun. Then most likely one person will come up with a really good thread and then there would be another thing to do.

If most of these things would happen vizzed would become a better place.
