As far as I am informed the Player and CSM part of the SCRUM is to provide Ideas and priorities to said ideas. Said idea implementation as well as tweaking is one of the tasks done by CCP.

Therefore without further ado:

Create a site similar to July 2011 Prioritization Crowdsourcing, but with few minor changes.

- Every registered account is capable of voicing his own idea (since only idea required - few words are necessary, if the need to explain arises - link the idea to the corresponding forum topic)

- Every registered account is capable for voting multiple times (limited amount) on other player's ideas. Whether votes will be for only or both for and against is up for debate.

- Said account holder can then modify his/her votes at any time - to reflect his new ideas on new patches or personal experience.

This would allow very robust and malleable system that can be accessed by anyone - and anyone would be able to see much more ideas per session.
With ever growing voting participation I expect high traffic with this idea as well, Previous crowdsourcing showed decent participation.


Main problem that I see is it can potentially grow very big, perhaps it should have automatic purging of ideas, that achieved very little response \ too much negative response. Perhaps manual management required.


Thoughts? Ideas?

What's the difference between your proposed site and, say, a forum dedicated to posting ideas in?

More consolidated information - and more easily available.

You don't need to read each thread to see the basis of the idea as well as general feelings towards it.
