I propose the idea of a forum Feedback thread.

There is this fantasy I have, where the exclusive subs have a forum feedback that are Conducted well enough that they are nearly never disrailed and well enough that it remains listenable.

Well, I said it was a fantasy.

I would like this thread to be a feedback on the idea of feedback. How you might envision such a thread working, or if you don't see any point, and why.

I don't think it has to have any hard wired influence. That is, I do not suggest anything like, "A dynamic and democratic community, where the community members themselves define, and redefined the fluid environment of this very special on line crossroads." But more like a suggestion box.

I rarely ,(like only twice) have any ideas about forum issues but there is no place to address them when they do arise. I could PM Amber, but there are many reasons that is a bad idea IMO. On the other hand, if there was a thread where ideas occasionally got suggested and then if it seemed there was enough interest such ideas could be put up as polls. If the overwhelming majority of members thought it was a good idea.... Well, then I don't know what, I am not going to assume anything.

Let me describe what I mean by Forum Feedback. Or what I don't mean. I am thinking that it would be very strictly structured to included only the physical make up of the space, and how things behave within it. (I will give an example). I also see it working only as a sticky,- like I said only twice, and it works well, so anything other than a sticky would fall off and die. But I do think, there might be some fine tuning ideas out there?

What it would not be is a forum members feedback, where someone bitches because so and so keeps.....


Example: I realized just recently, that PM's in my out box would change to sent status triggered merely by the recipient accessing his/her mail page. I had made the wrong assumption that when it showed as sent, that it had been opened.

I have brought this up to a couple of long time ACF members who were under the same impression. So my idea would be to bring this up, and suggest it be modified or that some notification of how it does work be added. Ppl could then comment, and it would be clear I think if it should be put to a poll or not.

Any ideas, comments?
 
I swear to god, few people can make a long and seemingly grammatically correct post that doesn't make the least bit of sense, like you can Eric.
 
I do not think there are enough (or any?) issues on ACF that warrant the creation of a "forum feedback thread".

While I do not know the technical skills that either Amber or Jawbs possess, I do know that this forum is a premade phpBB board that is easy to install. I do not know if, even if they wanted to, they could re-engineer the User Control Panel formatting to change the trigger that switches messages to be "sent". I do not believe this issue is as simple as clicking a box that says "Label messages as 'sent' only when they are clicked on by the recipient." What you are discussing is (as far as I know) an action that would require hiring a coder to access the files of the website and change them.

I have never encountered a technical issue with this forum in general, nor have I ever encountered anything that I thought could use a useful change.

As far as "soft" changes, id est, how the forum is run by the administrators, I also see no problem with how things are going (excepting, sometimes I fantasize that Amber gives me admin powers so I can banhammer the shit out of idiots).

I realize that my own thoughts are not universal, but in my opinion, a feedback thread is not really that necessary.

Tl;dr

♥ Most technical changes to the site would require far more time, energy, and skill to implement than they may seem. And because there are no major issues with the forum, there is no real reason to put in a huge amount of effort to make small changes.
♥ Minor changes are often discussed in the model's only section, and every time something is brought up, we usually talk about it and agree that those changes would be a bad thing. So these things are discussed, but in the end, change is not necessary.
♥ I do not believe a feedback thread is a good idea.

I feel that it is a very courteous service that Amber provides this forum for us and pays the hosting costs. I also know that Amber is often extremely busy. I do not think it is fair to ask her to spend hours of her time changing parts of the forum that have never been an issue since the forum was created.

Even though the potential thread would just be *suggestions*, I think it is a bit silly to say, "hey, great forum you've got that works well and all, but how about taking your day off to make a minor change that so far hasn't been necessary?"
 
Good enough, I'm convinced. I mentioned that I did not want to PM Amber, mainly because I thought it would be unfair to waste her time. The reason I did it as a poll, and the reason the first question is what it is, is because I thought this might be the right answer. The reason I proposed it was because I thought there might be members that thought there was more need than I did. Had I encountered this post I think I would have chosen the first or the last, and would have used the opportunity to relate the mail issue. I definitely don't want to cause Amber any more work, and would not have posted if I thought changes would require the expense of a programer.

Things like, 'Hey wouldn't it be great if we could all vote on which emots were in the front set", can seem like good ideas early in the morning when you have had too many special muffins. :)

I agree completely with this. We don't need a feedback thread. Let's stick to posting our comments and opinions within the already existing threads, and stick to reporting the posts that we feel are way out of line. Amber didn't HAVE to give us this amazing forum that we enjoy everyday (and it's FREE for us).

'tis not free, bb... with every post I take a little bit of your soul....


Thank you for the posts in reply to this jumble of a mess of a proposal. Evvie hit the nail on the head about how the bulletin board works, so I appreciate not having a suggestion every other day of changes they'd like us to make. Unless something is wildly broken, of course.
 
Were do we put feedback for the feedback forum?

If we post it in the feedback section will the universe collapse into itself?!

And what if we want to feedback about this post which is eliciting feedback about a forum to feedback?

Im off for a lie down... :lol:
 
Personally, I'm ok with giving up a little bit of my soul in exchange for Amber not charging me out the ass to be an annoying chatterbug.

I'm also willing to take spankings for each post too. :shifty:
 
Think is a good idea, but see some problems
Though I'm new here, I was under the impression there's a sub-forum for "Technical Issues" or basically bugs, security issues, etc.
Almost all boards I have joined over the years have them.

I'm unsure what version/flavor of phpBB this site is, however my only concern would be "site upgrades" to address bug fixes and security issues.
(Also, it would be *really* neat if I could change how many posts-per-page were displayed, but that's just me)

P.S: If Amber doesn't have any moderators or other Admins, then this wouldn't be a good idea...

Nope, it's just her and Jawbs.

It's just my husband (Jawbs) and me. He keeps the board up to date with new versions.
 
Amber doesn't pay me enough to make that many custom changes. Besides, I have yet to receive my full payment of 450 chocolate chip cookies for building in the ACF Score.

If you ever experience a technical issue or have a technical suggestion, you can always PM me. We have made many customizations to our phpBB install throughout the years. I can't promise every single suggestion/idea would be implemented, but it doesn't hurt to bounce it off me. Just don't throw it too hard, please. I've been told I'm a fragile flower :dontknow:

Ooh, Subway has some BOMB-ASS chocolate chip cookies! LOL. :thumbleft: If they were no longer warm when I got to them, I'd microwave them at home for about 15 seconds.
