What would you like on SDMB?

I think it would be cool if there was a Post of the Week and Thread of the Week. Posters could submit nominations by a certain day and then the winners would be announced. The message board at Salon did this (before it ruined itself by becoming pay-to-play) and it was great. Not to brag, but I won once. I even got a prize: a mouse pad with the Salon logo printed on it. I felt so very special.

This just came to me: It would be cool if we had a Doper classifieds forum, where we could post ads selling/requesting things. Like a smaller, more intelligent Craigslist. There are crafter Dopers and folks trying to raise money for various things that could use it. To prevent spam, the posting priviledges could be limited to members. Anyone itching to spam would be promptly banned.

We already have Threadspotting, you know. I don’t know if we ought to highlight a single post or not.

I’ve put the Classifieds idea up a time or two, but it always seems to get shot down. I’m not holding my breath to see it implemented.

I’d like to see more threads and posts that praise my looks, intelligence, writing skills, prowess in bed, and modesty, and fewer that point out the mistakes I make and stupid things I say. Dammit.

I think I’d like to see more non-political debates in GD. Not sure how it can be encouraged though… Perhaps GQ threads that turn into debates can/should be moved to GD, the way political threads often are?
