Request for Input - Rapid Raid Quick Attendee Approval
I'm kicking around the idea of creating a "Quick Attendee Approval" method on the Rapid Raid signup page. My thought is that for many guilds the Signup Group method is a bit complex. The benefit for other guilds is that it provides a lot of power. However, that power may be too much for those starting out so I was thinking of doing the following:
1. Add a "Approve Attendee" button to each signup.
2. When clicked that button would create a signup group, if it didn't exist already, called "Approved Signups" (name is still in debate) and then add that user to the signup group.
Then you'd have a signup group created on the fly with your approved attendees. If you then chose to use more complex signup group functionality, that would be your choice.
The idea here is that I think this functionality will be more intuitive for those starting out and will let people ease into the functionality and then explore the more powerful signup group options as they go forward.
Your input is appreciated!

I like the idea behind it. I primarily use the calendar raid listings as a reminder, since my guild works with dedicated teams instead of sign-ups. However, we have run sign-ups in the past and I messed around with the groups once or twice and thought it felt a little unwieldy at first. I'm sure a chunk of that is because I didn't really explore it fully. I spent approximately 5 full minutes on it. Ever. So I could probably work it out.
On the other hand, I think that with the idea that you've proposed, it would take a bit of the complexity out for new users, as you said. I think it would be a good addition.

Put it in a raid window like in game and give us the ability to move them up down sideways or delete. Color code names for classes. Come-on stephen you know you want to.
Even just a table like on my site for raid confirms http://indomitable.guildlaunch.com/custom.php?gid=24271&page_id=19416. Filling that bitch out manually is annoying

Honestly, you can already do this in the current group signups system. The only thing you won't get is the color coded signups for the groups.
It may end up being a touch different layout, and you won't have your "OT" and "MT" tags (yet, this feature is planned alredy) since its one column instead of 2, but really you can do this already.
