The suggestions page is going to get filled up pretty quickly, and well i'm more partial to keeping things organized. Why not add an extra sub-board to the suggestions page in order to hold suggestions that have been done. It gives a more definite archive to see what the insight of all of us has done to help spruce up the place and keeps the suggestion area clean. I'm not too sure about this one but maybe you can do the same with dissapproved suggestions i.e. lock em and toss them in that. Gives people an idea of what flys when they go to ask for something. Also I think you guys have done great with things so far keep up the good work.

That's not really how a forum works, but it's a nice suggestion.
Most things that are done and over with either just die or get locked and then they are just never posted in again.

That wouldn't solve the organization problem. Everything in a forum's subforum shows up in the main forum.

Admins (or mods when we get some) could totally just change the thread's title to Title [APPROVED] or Title [DENIED] when those events occur. Eh?

Things are often far more complicated than just "Approved/Denied." xD Nothing is ever really denied... always still open for discussion. I don't want to give them impression that the discussion is over just because an admin/mod decided it was denied. And there is often a back up of things that need doing, and it's up in the air whether or not they are "approved."
Just. Yeah. I'm not sure I like that.

Just giving the idea of modifying the title to show the suggestion's status.

I don't see the threads for sub-forums. BUT YEAH, I agree with Bree on this and the post down there. *points* All suggestions are open for discussion, even after they are done / fulfilled. Unless it's something stupid like, "I suggest we kill Cortney!"

I spent half an hour the other day searching the ACP for that option, because I KNEW I had seen it. I thought you would be able to set it forum-by-forum. I DIDN'T THINK TO CHECK MY SETTINGS. XD Whew. :D

I noticed that Padraig has been marking threads as [Solved]
I guess that solves this one *Hint Hint*

But, I do not think it necessary at all to post in the thread saying you put the "[Solved]" thing there. All that does is bump up a dead thread.

personally i think that after placeing [SOLVED] the thread should be locked so it can gracefully fall to the bottom of the sea.
