Title: Personal Secret Section
Post by: JonathanCrazyJ on November 27, 2015, 01:55:56 am
I was wondering how difficult it would be for each account to have their own personal secret section.
It would be extremely useful:

-Deck organisation.
-Stat Keeping.
-Drafting and saving half-finished Forum Posts and PMs.
-Organising my sad little life.
-Keeping track of which elements I have used against who in World Championship Group Stage. (what made me think of this in the first place...)

I realise you can just PM yourself, but that can be cluttered and not particularly effective from an organisational standpoint.

If it's something to do with server space (is that how it works?) then you could simply have a cap on the amount of topics you can have in there... I really don't know how this kind of thing works, I just thought it would be a really useful addition for me personally, and I'm sure people would be able to make use of it in their own way :)

Use google drive or something (Notepad's pretty good)

Use 'Label', it's what I do.

Inbox -> Preferences -> Manage Labels

You'll have to resend them, but you won't have to go searching for them everytime.

Yeah, we're already taxing server space as it is. I think...

For deck organization, OneNote can serve as a better Notepad. Excel/Google sheets is a good place for stats, since you can then easily export them. Pen and paper is how I keep track of WC plans. Hope these help.

Thanks Majofa, that lables thing is exactly what I needed :)

Thanks serprex too, though I didn't know what SMF meant, so i looked it up.

Google Says: Stupid Mother F***er

I was like... ouch lol

Until I asked in chat and found out it was "Simple Machines Forums"... which makes much more sense! :D

People not knowing things, shaking my fist.

Anyways - adding onto the suggestions here, any sort of text document is useful. I personally enjoy the specific functions of Word more than those of Notepad or OneNote so I default to it. Pen and paper is also really useful for a lot of things, so I like to keep some in access, especially for things like match plans as Zaw said.
