When voting, there should be a little window that pops up that requires every user to take at least 30seconds to read each and every site suggestion before they can vote.

I really hate it when somebody enters a topic, votes no, and then leaves the topic in less than 3 seconds. What's the point of "You Must elaborate and explain every site suggestion in detail" within the part of "How to properly write a site suggestion" if users are not required to read what they are voting for!

No from me, 30 seconds is way to long.

An alternative solution might be interesting though.

How long did it take you to read what I said and reply? That long.

I voted yes but id implement this differently.

Make voting in threads only available to people that the suggestion applies to. So for example: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=81451836&f=258 practically every single person who posted there besides plaguefear either doesnt trade at all or only trades in d2 or d3. In other words, its seems the ven diagram that details "users that actually play poe, cs:go, runescape, etc and might benefit from the suggestion" and "users that visit the site suggestions forum" barely overlaps at all.

What you get is a bunch of people who either dont understand or don't care about the utility of the suggestion because they dont play the game the suggestion is meant for. Its frustrating to see a bunch of people who dont even play poe explaining to me how I actually don't need the improvement Im advocating for and telling me how i should be using this site to trade in PoE all while they themselves have 0 experience.

So long story short, maybe when posting a site suggestion here make it so that voting can be allowed only for those who posting in certain forums. When you make the post youd have the opportunity to make voting available to everyone or go by a checklist - selecting the "PoE" forums on the checklist would grant access to those with at least one post in a PoE forum in the last 30 days to vote, and so on. You could check as many forums as you want... add in general chat, general help etc... and at the top of the suggestion it would detail the forum types that are green lighted.

Or at the very least weight the guy who actually frequents PoE forums differently than any random that happens to find the suggestion.


On the other hand I can see why the total user base should have a say in where njaguar invests his time improving the site... i just think the current way the site suggestion forum works lends itself to group think, circle jerking and a whole lot of tyranny of the majority.

Voted no. The question took 2 seconds to read and the post is just a rant, most likely because people rejected your previous ideas.

nope from me as well. just pointless, really.

Hi, my vote was null, because in my opinion it is quite obvious that suggestion is being read before voting. Also, if idea is good, it will most likely get more than 50% of yes votes and posts with explanation, and/or admins will like it and introduce it, here is an example.

You're really salty, aren't you.
Your two suggestions have simply been bad, and so is this one.

Also your poll has 2 yes and 1 "explain" that makes no sense as an option.
