NEW FORUMS: Baked.com - what should it have? Welcome Feedback... Admins Needed!

Baked is coming soon - the forums there are installed and nearly ready ...

Baked will be a website (basically forums to start with) aimed towards folks (in particular the teen / early 20s [Generation Y] crowd) seeking primarily to socialize with others ... discussion of cannabis would be secondary at Baked.com

Some noteable differences of Baked to cann.com ...

-- Faster registration - no manual verification of users by mods; instead random image text displayed during registration ... not overly user-friendly to older folks with poor eyesight, but for the target audience should be fine; they're used to decyphering such images during registration elsewhere.

-- PMs will be enabled by default (can be disabled in UserCP).

-- IMG tag enabled by default (can potentially reduce user privacy; slower page loading - but can be disabled in UserCP)

-- Longer edit time ... 15 minutes.

-- Delete thread / posts ... not sure about this one yet?, but considering enabling that too due to the content matter.

(for serious activism, grow info, etc the cann.com boards remains the place)

Now the question is what should be at Baked ...?

* What should the Baked logo look like? -feel free to attach logo ideas to this thread.

* The current slogan for Baked is "Baked - The Community of High Folks" ... welcome suggestions...

* What forum topics should Baked have?

* Other than the forums, what else should the Baked website have?

On a related note ...

Id be a mod :p

Hey, remind me when they get up and running, please...

Thank you. It may actually cause a lot of lost time from other projects, but I'm sure Baked.com will be worth it.

a recent topics mod would be great lol and the word 'folks' sounds a lil more for older people not sure what should take it's place though.

They're just quick ones, i can take more time on them if you're interested,
Peace

The Slogan Should Be: Baked.com "Baked Fresh Daily"

I think that there should be room for a "Market Price List" (similar to THMQ in HT Mag) that is updated weekly. It would look good as a righthand column on the main page.

Good point Up In Smoke 420 ... "folks" isn't the best word ... and quite honestly, the whole slogan isn't quite right anyways ... though I like some of the suggestions, such as "Baked Fresh Daily" LOL!

With that said, please keep the slogan ideas coming ... the ideal slogan should not contain the word "baked" at all - may seem counter-intuitive, but most good slogans don't contain the name of what they represent - but there's always exceptions ... so anyways, please post more Baked slogan ideas here. Thanks!
