Yes 14
No 6


Does FP offer enough Services for members?

Yes 19
No 1


What Service would you like FP to offer members?

Even though I think there can be even more to be added, It's trial and error to see if it would be used and who and what interests them. But I would like to see people making videos spending there cash for staff team or just members to open up there videos skills

Staff services, such as being able to help setup their forum.

You have it all covered well.

I wouldn't mind to see a review service of some kind on FP. I think that's the one thing that FP lacks in terms of services. I think they offer plenty of services to their members except for this one thing in terms of services but I wouldn't be sad if they offered more though.

The level of services are good but I feel they need to be better promoted.

Encourage users to use fp coins for various services. Add more circulation of fp coins.

Blog packages and more social media packages. Such as tumblr and bluesky.

Link jumble

Basic plug in and theme installation support

Perhaps something which focuses on YouTube,twitch & gaming whether it be comments on videos or reviews


Do you have enough FP$ for your needs?

Yes 15
No 5


Does the Staff handle issues on the site in a timely manner?

Yes 20
No 0


What issue did not get handled well or in a timely manner by staff on FP?

Nothing really, other than I say I see at some point members not happy with members and they keep things to themselves more so than informing staff

One thing that discourages me from posting and really getting into the forum is posts and topics that are created with zero effort. It is useless spam that has no weight on the actual niche of the forum.

I can't think of anything the staff has not handled in a timely manner. I can always send a private message to someone and expect to receive a response withing 24 hours. I've never ran into a problem that required a response faster than that.


Should the Website Battles be eliminated (not Site Battle Madness)?

Yes 3
No 17


What would make Site Battle Madness better?

Battles specifically for forums. Battles should be among forums.

using clear judging criteria, and blending expert and community votes. Provide detailed feedback, regular updates, and meaningful rewards like badges or features. Encourage inclusivity for all site types and sizes, ensuring fairness and engagement to create a more dynamic, rewarding, and supportive competition.

Maybe more prizes......I just enjoy watching the Site Battle Madness playing out and seeing who wins. Even if I'm not participating in the event.

Better promotion. A one time in your face explanation of the which actually constitutes a site battle and the benefits of participating.

If members stopped voting for the owner they like better instead of voting or the competing websites.

Hide the leaderboard

Add a social media component where you post the choices with reaction based voting. Maybe not weight this as high as forum votes but this would allow a weighted social media vote.

Advertise it better, make it clear what can be won everywhere it is advertised - have a dedicated board in its own section for it.

No partner sites, no paid to post sites


What part of FP is your favorite?

Posting packages

Seasonal Events

I enjoy engaging in meaningful conversations with other admins. It's great sharing knowledge with other individuals on how they manage their websites or projects.

Posting to much XD

The memories.

Knowledgeable posts that are occasionally present.

Member interaction in exchanges. Second favorite, would be the Forum Fun board.

The forums.

The package service, first of all. The Site Battle Madness is a close second though.

Generally the interaction between members.

Marketplace

Everything

Intellectual Talk

The longevity, nostalgia, etc.

The staff and community


What do you like least about FP?

Nothing, I think FP has been running smoothly and I enjoy my time on the forums and being part of staff as well.

Not posting enough 😛

Some of the members.

The preponderance of off topic chatter.

Lack of willingness from people to use the FP Exchanges Board.

Low quality posts/topics that are ignored by staff.

Having to remember to post on FP in order to request a package. I get why that is a requirement, I really do.....I just forget sometimes that I have to do it and even then I sometimes loose track of my posts so I have to go back and make a couple more so my package will go through.

Promotion activities that are poorly promoted. I think there may be an assumption that every member, new or otherwise, knows how promotion incentives work and where to look for them.

Off topic discussion

The fact that staff are allowed to participate in contests.

It can be a little repetitive with the same stuff each year


Do we have enough packagers for your posting package requests?

Yes 18
No 2


On a scale of 1 to 10 what number would you give the posting package quality you have received in 2024 with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best?

Avg 7.85


Which site is FP’s biggest competition?

Administrata

Warrior Forum

All of them are competitors. But it's a niche I do not really keep up with.

Maybe the Admin Zone.....? FP offers a lot more in terms of services than the Admin Zone has, to be honest.

FP doesn't need to worry about competition because there's really no comparable competitor that I'm aware of.

Perhaps admin junkies

FP is always FP's biggest competition, can't grow if you're not pushing yourself


Would you take part in a Community Google Meets Chat (you can do messaging and don’t have to do voice/video)?

Yes 12
No 8


Do you feel that your threads get enough attention by other members or staff?

Yes 17
No 3


What kind of prize would encourage you to participate in a posting contest?

Posting packages for my forum if I win

Cash

FP$

A paid plugin for the software I'm using to power my community.

SEO-related prize would be cool and helpful.

None. I post because I can usually contribute. I don't get involved in contests.

Onsite advertising of any kind.

Crypto

free packages

Cash prizes, website related give away (plug in give aways, themes, domains, etc.)

I agree!

One thing that I didn't expect was concerning not wanting staff to participate in events. We have a huge chunk of members who are on staff, so I think there will be some events that I will allow them to participate in and then I'll also start having other events where staff will be excluded.

That is definitely a fair point.

It wasn't my suggestion but I think perhaps it's the thought that the event could be rigged and the prize will go to a staff member.

It's the only thing I could think of.

If they cheat, I fire them 🙂

None of the events I run have been rigged. When @PGen98 and I plan things, we even take things to email so that @Cam can enjoy the events too without sneaking a peek at the answers!

One would think it was rigged how well I knew Kat.

Yep, we have a system down now, we know how to keep it as clean as we possibly can 🙂
