If you could name the next feature we added, what would that be?

If you could manage our engineers for a week (or two) and name the next feature we put together on FunAdvice, what would that be?

Every once in a while, I really like to get an idea of what other people think is missing...and often times, the best features we add are things that other people requested. Thanks in advance, you guys rock.

Also, a bugfix: Stop emailing me to tell me I've replied to something! I know!

It'd also be preferable if it took a page from forum behaviour and only emailed me once for each modified topic until I visit the site again (or even the specific page) so I don't get multiple notifications for the same question.

a time machine!

A way to organize your friends better. For example if you want to delete a bunch you have to go one by one, it'd be nice if you could check off the ones you want and then apply an action like delete (and have other options like sending mass funmails etc.)

That's a good idea, thanks, Sika.

I'll add it to the list, and hopefully, we'll have it done in a month or so.

...time machine...

I wish, then I could retire
Any other ideas?

Maybe this is my ignorance, but does FA have a blogging feature? if not? why not!
another idea is to have ( no offence!) a nicer layout =(
But, in all other aspects, I think you have it all covered...

aprat from the time machine ofc.

The ability for the person who asked a question to nominate a post as 'this answered my question'. This wouldn't preclude further discussion, of course, but serves a couple of other purposes:
- People reading an old thread because they have the same question can immediately identify the post that best answers their question.
- One thing I've found so far is that often, answering uncontroversial questions in a straightforward manner is actually less satisfying than other questions, in part because people asking questions often just drop it with no acknowledgement when they get the answer they want.

To help reinforce those points, a view showing people the questions they haven't selected an answer for, and a stat showing how many times an answer they posted has been selected could be added.

I like arachnid's suggestion.

@ arachnid:

'The ability for the person who asked a question to nominate a post as 'this answered my question'. '

I think we already have that covered...you can answer 'Did you find this answer helpful? Yes or No' and then that gives certain answers a higher score, which bumps them up in the list (hence the 100% and 0% scores that some answers have).

Is that the kind of feature you meant, or something more specific/clear? Give us all the input possible

editor: No, I meant that the creator of the question (and only the creator) could nominate a single answer as 'this answered my question'. It'd then be highlighted for anyone reading the thread later to see. It'd also provide a bit of satisfaction for the person whose answer is chosen, instead of (as frequently seems to happen) the thread just stagnating after a good answer is given, with no acknowledgement from the asker.

Yahoo has a feature similar to that.
Either the creator of the question picks the best answer or whichever answer had the highest rating get's picked as the best answer.

Personally I like how we have it, but I think the highest ranked answer(s) should be highlighted a bit more (face it there's usually more than one good answer!).

I don't think the asker should get to pick because so many times people will ask a question to hear the answer they want to hear which may not be the best... so if they see all the users picking the answer then maybe they would give it more consideration.

...does that make any sense at all?

what about a find who type of search like you can put a word in that describes the person your looking for I guess what I'm trying to say is like a better description catagory.

I would like to see a comment box where we can comment back and forth under members answers and a light showing a new comment has been added , and also a spot where we can no when someone answers our questions a light box would light up . Just a thought , I'm new and you may already have this

And also a Edit box for our questions and answers , I just saw a mistake I made and I can't go back and change my wording -

I would want to be able to upload videos!!

Yes!

-An edit box for your answers.. I often make mistakes =P

-Possibly some way of deleting your Questions (and of course the answers that go along with it)

-And could there be some way of voting how good people are at answering questions? I know there is a 'Did you find this answer helpful' but could there be an acutual number to show how good you are or something... and maybe display it on your own personal profile?

Thank you =]
Peace

I would probably start something called 'FunChat' like a little I/m messanger for online friends on Funadvice to communicate other than just messages and comments =]

spell check option on the answering feature thing!!!
also so that you can turn it off, too!

I think a time machine is a good idea

oh- and a thing for your profile where you can nominate certain questions you want to keep an eye on so you can ggo back and look at them without having all those annoying reminders in your email

Deleting Questioin would be really nice... Like all of my questions I asked a while ago..I now think they are inaprpriate. And I would Really like to delete them myself.. Thx

A Duplicate Box and a list showing us , that our question or similar question has already been asked so we don't re-ask a question , that would be cool

deleting your own questions, pleassse
