I am always looking for constructive criticism about the forum software, and suggestions as to how it may be improved. As you may know, this forum uses the esoBB forum software, of which I am the sole developer, and so this gives me a relative amount of flexibility in fine-tuning the experience so that it may be better for everyone in general.
As such, let this serve as a megathread for suggestions. Ideas for new features to be added to the forum are welcome as well.
Of course, if you are a developer, you are more than welcome to contribute to the source code, which is completely open-source.
Add options in the setting menu bar for allowance of users to pee and be peed on

Suggestions to "declare (x) in my profile" will be ignored simply on the basis that there is already an "about me" field in the user settings which in turn appears on their profile. I am opposed to having dedicated fields to social media platforms for the following reasons:
- It supports another web platform that I do not necessarily trust, and inviting my users to visit that platform is morally unconscionable.
- This kind of functionality would require for me to assume which social media platforms are used by this website's community, if any, and I do not intend to cater to a particular audience of people, because it would help type the community on this website, which goes against the idea of a "topic-less free speech" forum.
Give moderators the ability to always see a user's signup email, on their profile or something of the sort. You can simply use the plugin that already exists with that functionality and extend that to moderators.

Not going to lie Brand, I think that's a bad idea, it should be privacy over everything else.

We need to be able to determine whether multiple accounts are the same person, or someone is being impersonated, or if people are using phony emails to sign up. The moderation team is vetted and trustworthy. It actually adds an extra layer of security for those of us who respond to the contact email, since we can verify whether someone is truly the owner of a given account and we can help them restore access.

Why not just set it up so you only can use one email account at a time and lock out any emails that aren't gmail, yahoo, aol, proton, ect.?

It is already set up so that accounts' emails are unique and can't be reused. Also, aol? Seriously? Do you WANT to have the site spammed to high heck?
