I really hope there will be some movement on this suggestion soon.
Whether it is on a 'main' page, or becomes the first 'tab' of the Roleplay page, or whatever, I would like to see a better representation of roleplay ideas, which is supposed to be the focus of the site, and the 'key' to getting interaction on the site.
Right now, Ideas are simply a list that, besides being quite buried away, is not easy to use. The first page can easily be dominated by one or two new users that came in and made 10 ideas. All too often, this is done by a person that might hang around the site for a day or two, or maybe a week, but then after that period, they are gone forever. So the first page can get covered up by roleplay ideas that are effectively dead within two days or a week of creation because the owner never comes back to the site.
One way around this might be to do a search, but the longest activity period you can search on is 1 day, and that doesn't work as it should. It only finds Ideas that were 'created' within the 'activity' period. With the current user-base, this never returns anything you don't get from just looking at the first page of the Ideas tab. (Use of Interests is also low, with 67 of the last 80 Ideas not selecting any Interest for the Idea.)
Also, if an older RP idea is updated with edits by an active user, it does not rise in the listing, even though that is an activity that makes that roleplay more likely to be responded to by the creator. I was in an RP with someone that decided to simply drop Litphoria entirely. Their list of RP ideas are higher on the list than any of my RPs will ever be in any search that returns both of our ideas due to the fact that mine were created earlier, even if I've gone back and updated them, and despite the fact that my profile may have been active most days on the site for the last month, and her profile has not been active on the site for a month now. Only by deleting and recreating my Idea can it ever be shown in a list or search higher than her batch of ideas.
Suggestions:
Make the Activity search for RP Ideas key off of Profile activity, not Idea creation-date/ID-num. Thus you would make the Activity search actually return something, and get a different list than the already existing default list which sorts by creation-date/ID-num.
Make the default list of RP Ideas show by Modification date, not Creation Date/ID-num.
Rather than having to do a search on Activity with the criteria that Activity references Profile Activity, add a new tab or page that lists Ideas by this criteria. It would list all Ideas in order of Creator's last active date. This would promote the RP Ideas of active profiles to the top of that list.
