    Default Three Addons

    I think the below three addons might help HabboxForum. I think they will be beneficial but it would be good to see what others think.

    1) Gift Donor
    2) Double post merge
    3) Football Predictions


    1) Gift Donor
    http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=237351

    Currently, to buy donor for a friend, you have to buy it for yourself and then send a private message to brandon asking for it to be transferred onto the friend. However, this way, it would be be automatic. You will just have to enter the friends name while buying it.

    2) Double post merge
    http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=233234

    This addon will mean any double post will automatically be merged, meaning users will not have to worry about it. Say if you are replying to a debate or something, and you post a reply, and if someone else posted something before you (but before you pressed reply) and you want to reply to them too, you wont have to re-edit your post, just have to reply to it and it will be automatically merged.
    Some people in debates or other forums write a long reply, and by the time they finish, theres like 10 new posts, so it would be easier if double posts are automatically merged to prevent the person having to edit their post again.
    This would mean there would be no more warnings and if a new user / old user makes a mistake, they don't get warned.

    You can set which forums to enable it in, and only to merge posts which are posted within 15 minutes. This way it can be disabled in Announcements, Staff Forums, Spam, Forum Games etc.

    3) Football Predictions
    http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=238043

    Its upto the sports forum users about this one. I think they might like it, but at the end of the day, its their opinions which matters as they will be the ones using it.
    Its an addon which lists all the football leagues and all the matches. You can place your predictions before the match and if you are right, you get a point. There is also a hall of fame showing users points. It might be a fun little competition for sports members and maybe Forum Management can hand out prizes for those who get the most correct ones per month / per season etc.

    Here is what it looks like:









    These are just ideas which I think might help habboxforum and make it a bit more enjoyable .

    Thanks.

    I am all for the first and second ones. I see no reason why these shouldn't be added and would be beneficial. Obviously their installation will need to be discussed with forum and general management fully but from my point of view, it would be quite cool.

    I feel we would need to see a lot more opinions before passing judgement on the last one, however.

    By the way, the match results are updated automatically so forum management will not have to do anything.

    The first one would only be available by PayPal and I think this would have to be cleared by Jin, I am in support of it though

    I'm struggling to see the need for the second one, as double posts arent a major issue. Although if it's a popular option I'm willing to look into it.

    The third one I don't like at at all, it's too much in my opinion, the sports forum isn't that huge of a community

    I'd like to see Jamesy's opinion on these too, from a technical aspect.

    There will be no reminders as it will be automatically merged - therefore there will be no double post.

    It won't be necessary as the double posts are automerged. There is no rule there to be break

    I do like the first two plugins you have suggested and would be nice to see them both added onto the forum. Last one, I'm not a huge fan of it due to it being too much and we don't have a big enough sports community.
