New Feature / Site Updates we have on our list - Page 5

Posted: 1 years ago

The other suggestion I had is related to the genre I have always been active in, and the reason of me finding IF - which is reality shows. 

I suggest we should have some show (and season) specific badges. If we take Big Boss in particular, I feel there should be "contestant badges" available that one could "wear" to show who you are supporting - or whose team you are in smiley17 It doesn't need to be anything flashy, a simple mention of name would be enough that one could choose to display on their user info panel on their posts. Of course, loyalties change as the show moves on, and so this should be a thing that can be changed and updated anytime. I feel it would add a sense of belonging and cultivate more interest in discussions. Would also avoid unnecessary confrontation of someone misinterpreting your post when you are already displaying who you support. A possible loose end is that someone can use these badges just to infuriate a certain section of the members. But am sure we can find a way over it.

However since we do not want to get into developing everything in-house the easier solution would be to allow users to embed from players who are already specialising in it:


SoundCloud and Reverb.

This is how it would work:

People can simply go to:
https://record.reverb.chat


Record their voice and share the record link on their post. There are Chrome extensions also available to make it easy.


Usage on forums

I think this would be fun to use when someone wants to do a Singing Contest / Tell A Joke or something. Members would submit their songs and people can vote it up each round.

What do you guys say...


 Audio has the potential to be the future of social interactions .   The latest  apps add some charm to the closeness of oral conversation, but Vijay, serious moderation issues must be addressed before providing these personalized encounters.   

Every member enjoys reminiscing, reflecting on what it's like to be in their minds while watching serials, a new way of chatting with a friend, or just like  conversing with a fellow passenger in this IF travel! 

 Since few years, audio messaging has been available; voice notes on WhatsApp are especially popular in India. 

During the pandemic, these functions have been a convenient way for us to communicate with our friends!πŸ˜ƒ

However, a new wave of hip apps is incorporating the immediacy and rawness of audio into the core experience, reintroducing speech as a means of communication!!! 

The way we use our phones is maybe coming full circle, from phone conversations to messaging and back to audio.πŸ˜ƒ

A cautious approach is required, while implementing such individualised interactions.

It should not be used for malevolent purposes by members.

A much-needed update for creative people for sure. Initially, we use to have it but with the new update, this feature was not there anymore.

We were just discussing this internally few days back with regards to IPL team and we can show the team whom we are supporting. And idea we were exploring was to have similar systems for different forums.


So in IPL forum it would be IPL Teams and For Bigg Boss it would be BB contestants and similarly the same thing for other forums which the mods of those forum decide.. 😊

Will be exploring it further if it gets enough votes ..

 Wearing your favourite team's badge is a metaphor for your support! Members love to exhibit  their involvement  by wearing these special badges! 

The badge lets others know who you're rooting for, as well as your level of involvement and active participation in the discussions. 

In a way, it is a "badge of honor,"   letting others know  for whom you are rooted  and why it is  important for you to show that. 

I support this  idea Vijay❀️

I agree with Vijay fully β€¦πŸ‘πŸΌ

I like the usage on forums …. We can even have games /contests on how a particular character would react in a certain situation . 
Right now members use gifs … in future we can use voice files too 
I agree with Vijay and Madhuri that there has to be a way to control misuse by naughty members … to harass others πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ

This would really be a great feature and give a sense of belonging to the member. Only hitch maybe for those who support a couple/two contestants. If we can find a way around it, would be really great. We can even consider this for other competition based shows like Khatron ke Khiladi or Indian Idol, etc.
