Suggestions for new features

We got the videos for comp matches, which is very cool (once I get one of mine that is not boring on video I will try it out :D), how about an option to add podium photos for the Medals list? Could be a small icon which you can click and see a pic or two, similar to the Promotion history photos.

Would it be possible to sort profiles to verify by 1st belts, 2nd received points, 3rd
name? I think it could speed up the verification process

Could kids have voting points? Maybe 1 for gray, 2 for yellow, 3 for orange, 4 for green?

The Silver Medal Logo is very white and hard to see. Maybe something more Silver?
And the Gold and Bronze are also very close. Maybe something more Bronze for the Bronze.

I think this strongly depends on your screen :)

Maybe you can set it up so we can right click on notifications and open in a new tab?

on STATS: I'd be interested to see average age at time of promotions, and current-age distribution by rank.

also--showing any trends over time. E.g., *now* 3 years seems longer than average for someone who regularly trains to go white to blue. It looks not at all atypical for many of the black belts here. I would guess, but be curious to verify, that current blue belts tend to have a shorter white-to-blue than current black belts.

Is there an option to have the most recent posts at the top, with older posts descending down?

That would kind of screw up the flow of reading, you'd be reading and scrolling up and down all the time :)

6000 pins would be a bit heavy for any map / browser, I'm afraid :)

I’m new on here...just found the bubble map. It’s cool to see where everyone is located.

Ooo, and I see you got your black belt from the very awesome Lana Stefanac! Do you reckon you could convince her to join here? I don't hear her name mentioned enough on BJJ social media, which is shocking as she's a double gold Mundials medallist, IIRC the first ever non-Brazilian to win both her weight division and the absolute at the Mundials (back in 2009). :D

I hope she will join and agree that she is underrated. BJ Penn is credited for being the first Amcn to win Mundials at black...the women's division combined brown and black back then. She won at brown and was promoted to black on the podium. It's awesome to hear the someone in the UK is aware of her accomplishments.

Yep! IIRC watched her compete in 2009 back in the days when the IBJJF event streaming was done properly, by BudoVideos not Flo. Followed her for a while, also did some research on her when I was writing for Jiu Jitsu Style Magazine and in charge of several columns (such as the team history one I wrote for every issue). Very cool if she's up for popping on this site. I saw Hillary Williams is on here already, so that's cool too. :D

I totally agree. A globe you can spin and zoom in and find your new travel destination. Names to contact and ask for advice. To make it complete people could mark in academys theyve visited. Yeah yeah Christian I know there is a group on facebook. But this could be the ultimate all in one sosial platform for the bjj world. :-) :-)

This could become very complex from a technical and maintenance point of view. I also think that, in term of BJJ travel connection service, BJJ Globetrotters is taking well enough care of that. This site is serving a different purpose :)

Is there a way to adjust notification settings. Like for example when you post on a forum topic and no longer want to be notified about new posts on that topic?

I noticed there is a Email preferences settings page and that is not what I am referring to. Just the actual notification bell icon on the top left of the website.

I think I already made a post on this thread with this/these suggestions but here it is again: an official entry field for Academy & association logos; and an entry field for lineage.

Age statistics would be interesting. ie. how many blue, purple, brown, black belts are per Adult, Master 1, Master 2 etc.
