I don't agree with imposing a single standard, but I would like to see a default selected, as well as preferred client listed.

Re: [Under consideration] Proposed Talk forum improvements for 2010
 

Texrat's Solution #8 sounds fine to me, if that's how people want an additional filter to work, but ...

I'm disturbed that in 35 minutes (or less), Solution #8 has acquired as many Thumbs-Ups as Solution #1 has acquired after a week.* Until I'm corrected, I infer that there are plenty of very unsympathetic N900 users following this Brainstorm. I'm surprised and disappointed that none of them found it worth voting for Solution #1 as a fair and painless way for them to help maintain the utility of this forum for N810/N800/770 users. Had I been an N900-using forum member, I'd have voted for Solution #1 to help them. (Heck, I'd have voted for it to eliminate other categories I didn't want also; but even besides that, I'd have done it out of goodwill.)


*And none of the other Solutions #2 through #7 had more than #1, either.

Gerald, I'm pretty sure Solution #8 got so many votes so quickly due to product placement-- I embedded a link into today's molotov cocktail thread. ;)

It's all about advertising... :D

Re: [Under consideration] Proposed Talk forum improvements for 2010
 

Then please do me a favor and advertise to them to support specifically Solution #1 also in order to give us N8x0 users a break!

Gerald... what stops you from stumping for your solution? Feel free to spread the word! Put it in your signature! Spam it from the rooftops! ;)

Just an FYI regarding technicalities of proposals...

I for one would prefer we avoid a lot of customization, mainly for Reggie's sake as well as ease of maintenance. Future vBulletin upgrades risk breaking custom solutions.

If functionality we request is not avalaible out of the box with vBulletin, but needs to be implemented using it, then IMO it makes better sense to push proposals to that development team.

Only on this thread, until this post, have I not been using my signature. :)

(OTOH, I'm not getting on lots of "molotov cocktail" threads because I don't really want to add to them; and I'm not getting on useful N900 threads since I don't have much to add; and so all my stumping is to the little remnant that's left of N8x0/770 users, and we're shrinking/dying breed!)

(You're old enough, I think, Texrat, to enjoy the link I have for "Help Save This Forum ... " :) )
