A lot of the items you've all noted have been addressed in today's update to the site. Given, not everything has been fixed/improved, but I think you'll be happy to see how much has! :-)

i still hate the idea of a daily topic add limit, but maybe a "breaking in" time, like, "you can only add 3 topics, until your karma level reaches a certain level" etc...

How about a version 2 of a topic? like, Best Movies 2007, version 2 is 2008? Or, for this topic, once items are added, they can be "legacy" topics? I'm not sure how to explain the idea, just a way to update/ or reexplore topics as things change, in a way that allows older items to be phased out and newer items to be in the top 5.

Hi all!

Thanks for your suggestions and feedback. We've made note of all of these points and have been working on them. Some will be fixed in the upcoming release of the site (early next week). Others have been addressed at on a planning level and are in the subsequent build.

Please keep adding items as you think of them. We're doing all we can to make this you favourite website! :-)

Cheers,

Eric (the bald one)

I didn't really defend anything there did i?

i see that the "add limit" has gained popularity. But I think that's a bad move, personally, so I'd like to defend my idea and offer a suggestion as alternative.

I think, the problem with topic additions isnt the amount of them, its the points associated with them. I think limiting them would maybe reduce people's involvement, a better solution might be to limit the amount of topics a person can get points for each day. I'm not sure that would work either though, given that might mean people wait to post to get points, or who knows. I guess I just dont like the idea of limiting things because of people who take advantage of the system.
