Wow!! I really liked some of the suggestions provided like having the ability to chat, copyrighting the updates such that they are not copied to other sites, & so on. Since i havent managed to read all the pages, i will just post my suggestions below:-
1. General public should not be able to stalk a person i.e. unless u are a friend, u shud not be able to view the 'My Posts' button at all. Then too, like FB, a member should be able to control which friends can or cannot see certain sections of his/her profile...esp things like scraps/slambooks, My Posts etc.
2. In other words, there should be an ability to segregate friends into various groups, given that so many of us follow multiple shows & have different friend groups in each place. This group option should be selectable for any mass/ selective PMing.
3. The limit for no of ppl receiving a PM should be removed or at least increased
4. I havent seen a fwd option in the Outbox. It would be useful if we ever forgot to send a particular PM to certain ppl or if we want to keep the no limit still active!
5. There should be an invisible option!!!😆 Yup...i'd like to hide from certain ppl at certain times!!!
6. Search option needs to be looked into as even a popular keyword like update doesnt return anything in the individual forum section. Strangely, i have seen it working in the TB section few months ago...dunno y there was a difference.
7. Oh yea...celebrity ranking should go!! I'd say the entire ranking system shud go, given that it often leads to senseless posts being created & tensions/fanatical behaviours ...but let the latter be to keep forums buzzing...a lil bit of competition is always good!😈
8. There should be an autosave feature. As often many of us, & worst of all the updaters, have typed the entire post, only for some glitch to occur & all the efforts to go down the drains. I once had to type my OS 3 times!!!! I lost the charm only...& that was is only OS to date!! 😆
9. I really like the poll option...but can the question part have a longer word limit pls??
10. It is embarrassing to see grammatical/spelling mistakes in the TB articles...& it hasnt been a once off case. I know its human to err, but this website is getting popular by the day, & it doesnt do justice to see such mistakes happening every now & then. Pls better editing or proof reading...& really i have nothing personal against any particular reporter. Its a general comment.
I know that its easy to suggest, but quite difficult to execute. So, I wont say implement all our suggestions asap...but pls do consider them & let us know if & when u make those implementations. It will just make us feel a tad bit useful!
& Oh! I do love this place...& no matter how often i have gone away...i have always returned! So thanks Vijay for giving us this platform to rave/rant away!!
