We've definitely gotten a lot of suggestions for improving the site. Thank you!!!! I've said before, and will prove to you in the future, we will take all suggestions under consideration. Given time and priority, you'll see those changes implemented.

So what about things you like that we shouldn't change?
Any other positive comments?

We aren't looking for a pat on the back, but we need to know what we are doing right, as well as doing wrong.

Thanks in advance for the input. The diversity of this Wine community will make us great!

Jumping to the active message is a definite plus.

The chat feature is a strong addition, albeit with some "fine tuning" required (and I know you are already working on)

The full UBB applicability -- this could be fun!

Keep up the good work.

what he said.

I like the My Home thing, too. Very much so.

I like the Who's Online and the Read All Posts for a particular poster. Since there are a lot of sections (which is good), I find myself seeing who is online and following where some of my favorite posters are posting.

I love the separation of the tasting notes into categories. I also like the separation of the chatting, goofing around into its own section. I like this stuff, but when we have serious subjects, I hate the goofing around. That is not to say that I don't enjoy humor or wit when discusing serious subjects. I just hated the intentional groping for attention by using goofball comments.

what he said, too. Yeah, that's the ticket!

I like how people are inviting so many other people! Keep it up!

Now that I have figured out the subtle nuances of navigating this board, I kind of like it. I do appreciate the real time updates of new posts and private messages. Oh yeah, avatars and graemlin imports are great too. (I promise no pissing squirrels!)

I think private messages will save some of the clutter that some of you find annoying on the other board many of us frequent.

I do like that most people try to be respectful to contrary opinion here. I know on the other forum I have been known to hammer some of the other participants. It almost always stems from people that don't seem to understand that a contrary opinion is not a personal attack. I still maintain that I never threw the first punch. I sort of face life with a sledge hammer rather than a scalpel. LOL.

If Rev and the boys can find a happy medium between the WS free for all and the Parker Stepford board, this could become a very interesting place to come and visit.

I promise to treat fellow posters with the same respect they show others here.

excellent thoughts ga, especially about differences of opinions just being differences of opinions.

I'd like to see the "Who's Online" timeframe increased from 10 minutes to say 30 minutes. It's be nice to see who actually was around and 10 minutes seems like not enough time. It's useful since it would prompt you to go hit their link and see what was new that that particular poster had just posted...

TJ, under Main Index, at the bottom, you can see the posts from the last 24 or 48 hours. However, within that 24 hour time period, each post has a time and date associated with it, so you can easily see who posted in the last half hour.

I know, but that wasn't what I was talking about. I will try it your way, though.

?? Perhaps I misread your post?

I'd like to see who was online for more time than just 10 minutes. It would be nice to see, so I could just link up on their name to see all posts. I suppose I could already do that by putting them in my 'buddy list' but ah never mind. I am just rambling atthis point.
