User blog:Warlordalox2332/Suggestions on suggesting

hello world of the lotr wiki! I regulary peruse the suggestions forum and see alot of threads that just dont work at all so i decided to write this thread on how in my opinion to make a good suggestion.

1 Its been said before but please please please! read the FAQ: There are alot of suggestions that totally ignore it despite constant threats intimidation and sometimes violence from high powers of the wiki. I have seen people asking for gandalf about 300 times suggestions like these just clog up the board and are pretty much useless.

2 Think it through (yes it rhymes): I dont that anyone is totally unguilty of this. Some suggestions while they might seem cool at first would just not fit at all into the game. Think about how will it affect the game? Will it make it easier or harder? Where would it fit how would it be used? Dont suggest something like a sword that does 60 damage things like these would totally wreck the flow of the game. Sometimes the suggestion is great but it still just wouldnt fit in the game.

3 Let the idea come naturally: I have seen this alot as well dont just suggest a suggestion just to suggest a suggestion. These ideas are forced and dont tend to turn out well. I did this quite a bit when i was new just sat there thinking of things too suggest and they were not very well recieved. These ideas can turn out okay but not too often. Let your ideas form as you venture through middle earth braving the dangers that are there seeing what certain things lack or have to much of. I have seen two ideas that are pretty much the same and one that felt forced was ignored and one that felt natural was very well recieve.

Thank you for reading.
