I feel like the forum is getting a little bit plain (My opinion) so here are some ideas you could include into it.

  • Themes. The only themes as of right now are dark and light mode. Maybe you could add some more (this would also be a nice touch to the shop)

  • Titles. (Based off of blox fruits) For a badge you get you can set it as a title for instance if I had the Century Poster badge. I could flex it so that whenever I post a discussion or reply to something it would show the username like this:

[Century Poster] Gabriel.

Additionally, you could make them different colors based on the rarity or you could buy them in the shop. For example, since the Century Poster badge is a golden badge, it would show as a Golden tag.

  • UGC items. This is targeted mostly toward emojis and (maybe) themes. The community can create custom emojis and if any of the owners deem them worthy, they can be able to be bought at the shop.

  • Advertisements. People can use their coins to promote their games by showing them on the front page of the forum without using the AD/Promotion tag. Obviously, there would have to be a limit and cost of coins to use these (ex. 1000 coins / month)

Now obviously you don't have to put all of the ideas in but they are just some things to consider.

Themes: Not possible on Flarum.

Titles: While there is an option to showcase badges, it only puts them on the user card, and automatically selects one if one isn't picked, which I'm not exactly a fan of.

UGC Items: You can't restrict custom emojis to specific users. That's why custom emojis are bought to be added to the forum, not bought to be used.

Advertisements: Doesn't really make sense since the Promotion tag exists...

    im a big fan of the advertisements idea
    like a banner on the side or top or something in exchange for a large amount of coins

      [WUT] Adam Shame, perhaps I could code up a Tampermonkey script to make themes here. If anyone wants me to do that, upvote this post.
