Site Updates and Issues Discussions #7 DT note: 122 - Page 70

When one views My Posts or Watched Topics or any similar pages, there are links to pages 1 (appearing as a blank page symbol), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and then only the last page (let's call it number n).

Could this be changed to display links to pages 1 ... n-6, n-5, n-4, n-3, n-2, n-1, n?

One doesn't usually want to browse the earliest pages of a topic repeatedly, other than the first page.

When a topic is very active, one might remember the last page number that one viewed, and one would want to pick up again on that page, and browse ahead.

Clicking on only the last page, one can get distracted by something there and forget to navigate back to all the pages of interesting posts.

Whoever agrees, please Like.

1. We will see the possibility to allow the Poll-maker to be allowed to see results without casting their vote.

2. Editing Poll Choices: Once a poll is created and members start casting their votes, changing the poll choices could potentially invalidate the votes already cast. To maintain the accuracy and fairness of the poll results, we've chosen not to allow editing of poll choices after the poll has been initiated. This ensures that members' votes are always relevant to the choices they were presented with at the time of voting.

Can tm be given option to edit and reset the poll.

For eg: i wanted to create multi option poll but i by mistake selected single option poll.

So i had to create one more poll with same option. Instead of that if i get an option to edit poll options and which automatically resets the poll that would be more helpful.

Also one more example why do we need edit option. Here in the post there was a option which was related to killing of a character. If i had an option to edit i could have edited it. As it feels tiring to create a new poll all over again to fix these minor issues. Which will discourage people from making polls again due to work involved to copy all options.

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns. We understand the significance of post counts for our members, as they reflect your contributions and engagement within our community. Let me provide some insight into why we've chosen to reflect the post count based on actuals:

1. Integrity and Transparency: It's essential for us to maintain the integrity of our forum's statistics. When post counts are based on actual, valid posts, it provides a clear and accurate representation of a member's participation.
2. Quality over Quantity: Our forum values meaningful contributions over sheer volume. By ensuring that post counts are based on actual, constructive posts, we're promoting a culture where quality is prioritized over quantity.
3. Consistency: Applying a uniform policy where post counts reflect actual contributions ensures that all members are treated equally and fairly, regardless of their tenure or status.
4. Performance and Maintenance: Regularly clearing out "+1" posts and other non-contributive content helps improve the overall performance of our forum, making it a better experience for everyone. By adjusting post counts to match, we ensure that our metrics align with this maintenance.

We recognize the pride and status associated with post counts, and we assure you that our intention is not to diminish your contributions. Instead, our goal is to create a platform where every post adds value and where metrics reflect genuine engagement. We genuinely appreciate your understanding and continued participation in our community.

Regards,

Thank you for the explanation

The ICC World Cup is going to start on October 5, i.e., within 2 days.

Please add the sports/cricket forum to the IF Home page ASAP.

And, the World Cup prediction game is going to start within a day, so the forum must be easily reachable and accessible to all the IF members.

Surely posts can be trashed without decreasing the number count? So many members have been disappointed.
