few things but these are just my thoughts
there should be some resolution for negative trade score as if some one commits fraud and we issue him negative score in result they issue us negative score too even we remain honest on our part but other then having a negative trade score we can do nothing .there should be some resolution to this

some forum features that tempts people to remain active on forum like the activity bar in the past and also achievement should be awarded automatically as well as manually as some acheivements are of that nature that they can awarded manually only

there are some forums sections that if removed from subsection to main can attract more people especially hardware section as we can see mostly people cant find it and they start asking advice in gaming as well as in market place
there are some forums that have potential to get more people like automotive n sports and fun section. if there is some active admin and lil bit advertisement to show the exciting things happening in that sections can be helpful and inactive and dead sections can be removed permanently or can be merged

these are just my thoughts you may disagree with them

I am involved with Pakgamers for almost a decade now. Visually it should be the same as it is right now. Although minor tweaks are welcomed for fresh look but major changes shall be avoided. As the forum is really pleasing to the eyes with its color schemes, I won't recommend changing that at all.

I have no complaints regarding the forum other than the sheer number of subsections. For instance, the online gaming section. Just give posters an option to tag their posts with the platform of choice, like how threads are tagged in the market place (WTB, WTS, WTT).

As for looks.. Any metro-ish flat theme would work. Or better yet, look into Material Design. I don't know shit about web dev so can't help much but if there is some Android related help needed, including app development, I'm here.

EDIT: Do you guys have any interest in hosting game servers? Maybe if you talk to DICE they'll let you host a BF1 server :tv: Every paki player will love you.

I agree. There are a bit too many subsections, which puts you off. Less subsections=more interest and involvement in my opinion. Also, it would be nice to have more color schemes. Like we currently only have a Dark one for Desktops, something like maybe a light scheme, with light colors complementing each other or such.

Thanks for tagging me.My only advice for now which i really want is a fully functional chatroom where if you are online on Pakgamers you appear online despite even if you are not active on the site. It would be really great chatting with other members here on the same interests instantly.

Karach!
Everybody is talking about merging this and that but i have a request,

For Gods sake create a different section for threads like 'please pray for falana', 'falana is not well', 'someone is dead' etc etc.

I've spent a lot of good times here and there is a lot of talk about bringing the old members back. In my opinion, that boat has sailed and people have just grown older or grown out of this phase. I still visit from time to time and I read, but I don't indulge like I used to and I don't think I ever will no matter what changes are brought. Focus efforts on bringing new people in instead of trying to please the old ones. You just need to get in front of new people and give them value somehow.

I too also agree that the forum needs an updated look. I've been around for almost 7 years and it pretty much looks the same. [MENTION=103807]asgharkhanani[/MENTION] I don't agree with the commission. Most on this forum will be not truthful and probably not disclose their dealings. The management will need to build an entire architecture to achieve commission earnings....like eBay.....or build a mobile app exclusive for the market place like Mercari or Gameflip. Implementing commission will be easier there.

is there a chance to add a "system requirement tool"? many gaming forums have it, that lets the gamers to check if their rig will be able to run a game or not

Came back to site after almost an year.Good to see that this community is still growing. There used to be a like button for posts.Where is it?What was the reason to remove it?Bring it back.There is no need to do any major restructuring.It is already fine.

It feels good to post after such a while.Although, as someone has pointed out quite rightly that most of the old users have just moved on and grown old, I would like to say that one can still find the time to be a part of this amazing community regardless and so therefore more meetups should be arranged. And not just for Isl/Pindi, Lahore and Karachi guys. The others too, wherever feasible at least.On the functionality of the website, well I feel like PG hasn't evolved much over the years as it should have. We still don't have regular reviews and articles postings are quite less. Other than that, of course a graphic overhaul would be nice.Peace.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
