3/08/08 UPDATE - Locked in favor of:

What's Cookin' at FatWallet?

*NEW* FatWallet Member Suggestions *NEW*

 

 


OK, if it's not a Cash Back merchant wish or FatWallet Forum FAQ suggestion... let's put 'em in here, ok?

beboparoo suggested reviving the "who's logged in" button.

Madmurphy suggested a pull-down menu of the forums on the search results page... and calling forums "forums" instead of "categories."

tlaxson suggested a dropdown list of forums on the PM page(s).

ComputerWiz suggested a feature in PMing to quote (or just show the message that was replied to) so that when someone sees something like "Where is the link to that" in a PM, they will actually know what it is refering to.

TakeTheActive suggested a link to original thread in PM reply from mod after mod alert.

con suggested the 1k - 10k designation be added to the pseudo-custom avatars.

Feel free to add general site improvement suggestions here!

EDIT 5/20/05: Doing a little "clean-up" today to weed out OT posts, flames, and rants without suggestions.

Edit by Moderator: Thank you for participating in the forums. However, this topic has been covered in a recent post Here.

I guess requesting that PMs open in a separate window - on their own - is futile

Tech guys and MechanicalMan suggest doing it your own self by right (or middle) clicking to open a new window (or tab) when you want to, claiming everyone will be happy then! ...not sure if futile, though.

I would still like to see a quick reply button.

I would also like to be able to add multiple quotes into one reply instead of copying and pasting


Thanks

Some kind of three strikes system. Some how one of the hot tech guys could come up with away for the mods to be able see who has made what type of (and/or how many) violations. This would cut down on alot of the constant crap that goes on.

RightHere said:Ban repeated coupon beggars.

I usually never beg for coupons but I recall having to do it once because I needed a coupon ASAP (we're talkin' minutes...)
So I begged and begged and begged in the proper forum, no bites... Then I decided to break the rules and try my luck in OT, and I got a bite within seconds (thanks CQP! )... My threads got neutered obviously, but I got my coupon and bought by product (using FatCash too! )

So should I have been banned? Careful how you respond, I'm not called "cranky member" for nuttin'!!!

adding the links on the new login page was a great idea

Thanks AGREED! This is annoying to do. Just put a quick reply window at the bottom or where ever and when you hit the quote button, just take the current field value and add the text to quote it.

Another thing is when you click one of the format buttons, the text always appears at the bottom of what you wrote, not where the flashing line is (sorry, I forgot what it was called). Same thing should be with the emotion icons.

Edit: Some one also had requested having the formated text appear as it will (without preview) when in the text editor.

I had requested when you update a message to have the page go to the previous page in the thread when updated instead of going to the first page.

Make a board for CashBack discussion and questions. It doesn't matter how easy it is to use or how clear the information is. People are going to be constantly be confused even if you paint a picture for them.

jayK said:IMHO the Topics link should be called "Back to ____ forum", and the Forums link should be removed. If you really wanted to go back to the forum list, you can click the forums tab at the top.

    • FORUMS is superfluous (as you pointed out)
    • REFRESH is superfluous - press F5 or click on the REFRESH Icon in your browser's toolbar
    • MESSAGES is superfluous - either close the window or click on the BACK Icon in your browser's toolbar
    • TOPICS (top right) should be called INDEX, IMO
    • SUBSCRIBE TO / UN-SUBSCRIBE FROM is GREAT!

This is a bit unusual. When I'm using firefox the links that say "email topic" have the right "]" on the next line. It's probably just my window size settings, because in IE it looks fine. Maybe you could just delete the extra spaces, or find a way to adjust the table row settings.

Here's 2 more:

Make this topic a sticky!

Put a "Select All" button on topic alerts to select all of the categories (just like when you search).

Since you're trying to keep all of the suggestions in one place, here's an old one that would still be great.

old thread

When I login to reply to a thread, I am not brought back to the page I was visiting. I am brought to http://www.fatwallet.com/index.php?NoCookies=Yes and when I click on "here", I'm brought to http://www.fatwallet.com/.

The Rating Filter should default to "All Messages" (it currently defaults to something else, right?) It just causes confusion for the filter to be enabled by default.

Can we vote people off the forum?

Suggestions for Quick Summary:

1) Quick summary should be displayed even before the first post (sometimes first posts themselves are verbose)

2) When posting a message, user should be allowed to also fill in Quick Summary besides the first post. This Quick summary is at the top and can be then edited by other users and continuously improved aka Kaizen

What about a spell check? A grammar check? A redneck translator?
