What does this suggestion change/add/remove: I am Suggestion a Trello board to keep up with what the development team is actively working on and planning on implementing into our game. in this Trello board it can also allow for upvotes and downvotes of ideas
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?: I don't believe so, I quick searched for it
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2): Keeps the SCPRP players up to date, small amount of time to implement, Everyone wants to know what's being developed!
Possible Negatives of the suggestion: people know stuff that is going to be implemented into the game at some point
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted: I feel like there truly are no negatives and everyone would love to see a trello board to keep up with the future of CN SCPRP.

Sorry for the short suggestion, its very straight forward and not much to say on it.

As of now the GitHub is just a huge mess and Trello is simple and easy

+Support,
they do have a GitHub log, butttttt there is so much fucking backlog that it really isnt like accurate at all anymore like remember the SCP's intercom thing yea me neither. so honestly a trello for public use could be cool and then a dev github for commits and you know as a board. basically this really inst a +support for trello but a +support for cleaning the backlog
 
Just thought I'd quickly mention here that while the backlog is quite long on the github, it still is getting done. The thing is, if we find that a ticket on the github has been left for too long and needs updates, we will move it to revision and reaffirm it in a Content Meeting if needed. The core developers already have their commits and code reviews internally, and this is likely to stay.
 
I dont see how a trello will help wiht your reasoning for clutter,

1. the backlog is a clutter because everything we accept gets logged there. Accepted suggestions doesnt mean it will be added that is for the devs to decided if they want to work on.

2. if we introduce Trello it will become the same thing no? you will have a back log in process and completed just like github?

3. Why are votes needed for changes when it was accepted and voted on beforehand within the forum? You will not see private tickets/updates at all.

In the end, it is just a copy-paste to a platform that we need to pay for, with no benefits for our development team.

See images below legit just a copy paste... and costs more money 1768397591309.png1768397518582.png

Hi, I'd like to weigh in on this as someone that used to be on the GM Team - CN used to use Trello in the past for event management, however they had to stop using it in favour of another service, because of changes to Trello that would have required the network to pay a prohibitively expensive amount in subscription fees to allow every GM to be able to access and use it.

There are other many excellent points that have been raised as to why a change of this nature would not be appropriate for Content; Especially given that the existing Public Development Tracker on GitHub.

One thing that would be important to note here, would be the sheer amount of tickets currently in the backlog - To my understanding, the length of the backlog is a major contributing factor (but not the sole one) to Content's hesitation when it comes to adding to it.

I'm trying to think of a constructive spin here to think of something that could be better to go through, but to be honest, the public development tracker is as good as it gets - I don't see a need to reinvent the wheel. It's easy, simple and it's got a good search function. Any further attempts at optimising it would just be a waste of time and potential development resources.

For no particular reason or relevance whatsoever, here's that old-ass image of the guy duct-taped to a ceiling beam at a CS LAN party:
