Category: Zone BBS Suggestions and Feedback
Hello admins.
I suggest that the gossip boards be structured so that the oldest posts are close to the top of the page and the most recent are at the bottom. This would make it easier for people to catch the thread of what's going on. Also, may I suggest that when searching for location, we could have a combo box with all the states listed, highlight a particular state, and click on a search button to search for people in that state. Thanks much.
Eddie
Why? Is it not always better if the newest ones are at the beginning, so you can reply to them, rather then having them at the bottom?
Because if the oldest posts are at the bottom, you have to look at each post in reverse order and it kind of makes it inconvenient in my opinion.
i agree with jazdog.
although i'm not sure who would use the location search thingy
I like both suggestions Eddie. I think having the grafiti boards structured more like these boards, with the oldest comments on top so you can follow the thread more easily would be great. And a combo box for states would be helpful as I know many people want to see if there is anyone else here from their area. Having a similar combo box for age range, gender, and maybe even some other searchable categories would also be nice.
I agree fully
I also agree .
o me too! as long as there is a box with all the states in what else could anybody possibly need? lol. after all there is no such thing as the rest of the world! i mean those other guy's, from wherever it is they live, wouldn't be interested in knowing where there fellow country folk are!
tongue in cheak of course. it is a good idea though seriously, try to remember that beyond the boarders of the US there is a rest of the world! lol.
I agree with all that's been mentioned so far. Although it makes it easier to post to Grafiti boards the say it is now, it would be easier to follow the discussions if their thread could be the other way around, like here on the Boards. And ability/option to search by age range, country, and/or keywords would be cool as well. I think it'd be hard to put more specifics such as states though, because the Zone does have many members from outside the states and we don't know all the states/provinces in the other countries. But with keywords, we could search for specifics like that, as I think putting the state is an editing option anyways, so lots of people may not even have a state or province named because they want to be more creative with their location name. Just my thoughts on this.
What, Dan? You mean the United States isn't the whole world?
honestly becky, it's true, would i miss lead you? hehehe. i definitely like the idea of putting the graphiti boards the right way round though. it is highly irritating having to read everything backwards as it were. Just put everything in descending chronological order with the oldest at the top, move the edit field for replies to the bottom of the page and everything will be far simplar.
The idea behind graffiti is that you have a certain number of posts, and after a while posts fall off the graffiti wall, only sometimes to be seen again.
If we do location search, it should be made in such a way as to include those in other countries. Thankfully for the world at large, the U.S. is not the only kid on the block.
