Social Activity Stream
The Social Side of Guild Launch
I would really like to see some added functionality that encourages members to be active on the guild website bar keeping up with updates. On our last host this was successfully done by implementing something similar to a social community part. It was very well received by my members and included the following:
A Facebook-ish activity site stream, that in addition to listing what the site activity stream usually does also allowed members to post various things (text, images, links etc) they wanted to share with their guildies. This could maybe be made available through the Banter app too?
A similar user level stream on a member's profile page. This could be linked to the "Following" functionality, allowing you to catch up with what your friends post on their streams. This could maybe be made available through the Banter app too?
"About me" description where users could enter some info about themselves as well as provide links to various gaming profiles and networks.
User level image gallery - either letting them get a space for themselves on GuildLaunch or doing some kind of embedding of an external image storage such as imgur or photobucket.
A way of adding games they play, for those not using Steam or wanting to connect to it.
We’ve added some of this to user profiles and site notifications. :)
