Hey /g/ im creating a textboard for my campus, normies are going

Wouldn't campus normies be more comfortable with a Facebook group?

Facebook requires registration, but yeah. I guess this is an alternative. My school doesnt really have a facebook group

>>60662992
That's why I specified normies. They'll have a Facebook account already.

True, Some might like being anonymous and sharing secrets though

These sorts of anonymous school message boards are always banned quickly after some nudes get shared or some hardcore bullying happens. Then it gets featured in the local news after the autistic kid commits suicide. Yeah I have been there.

You can set up an alternative channel that doesn't require registration, but if you want to pull in the greatest number of users go for the most widely used medium. Most people value anonimity only to trashtalk others but no one will go out of their way to use an anonymous service over Facebook just because of that.

You completely miserable fuck, I like to bang your wretched little head against a wall, except I fear it'll damage the wall more than it'll get sense into you.

OP, you go right ahead and try it. If you get banned, stop, look, and learn what caught you out: and next time Fail Again. Fail Better: http://archive.is/v9qe0

And never let curmudgeonly tossers like this guy bring you down to his level.

That design makes a good starting point. Instead of asking us for suggestions, you'd do far better to ask your actual users what they suggest, and work to that plan. When you do this they feel ownership of the site, are more motivated to return to it and also motivated to recommend it on.

I would suggest your major issues going in are injection threats (you MUST sanitize all inputs!) and moderation: with links in there, you have to be prepared for some wiseass to post Lemon Party type material. I think I'd handle that with a report button: two reports and the link goes in the queue for checking and gets hidden until its approved.

He literally used a ready script and created a new CSS theme

Truely a strategy for failure.
You'll get confused and confusing input, different with each user, and whichever users' input you don't implement will result in those users not using your creation.
Users have no idea what they want until after they have at least used it. Then you'll get change requests.

This is only true if your accepting input from < 10 people.
Set out what you want at first. Fuck everybody else. Then let people try it and listen to what they have to say. After a while you may start to see a pattern and you can say "they all want different stuff, but it seems most people can't make sense of feature x and are lacking feature y" then make x better for your users and implement y, then do it again.
