This idea has been floated a few times, in these threads (and the wishlists):

what-to-expect-from-chesscom-forums

daily-puzzle-comments2

site-trophies-and-top-blogging

rewarding-points

voting-posts-up-and-down

forum-comment-rating

The prime candidate is Loomisthumbs up/thumbs down rating (similar to digg.com).

One of the main issues is that there is no mechanism to reference individual posts.

Team A got better players because they pushed out lower rated players and team B got weaker players because their stronger players didnt have a chance to push out team B lower rated players....   ...

Other mechanisms have been proposed (see first-come-first-served-team-chess) and some are apparently being considered.

Why dont they make a list of all suggestions made by members and put a note like-maybe or -not going to happen or -soon or -you are stupid? That way people would know that their posts and suggestions are read!

Yup, but then you gotta eat it with a smaller spoon

The loading circle isn't spinning counter-clockwise, it's spinning clockwise so fast that an optical illusion is created.

Thanks artfizz....That is why I am for that there is a list of all suggestions and short comment next to it(question number E.)...Much easier for everyone and peopele wouldnt ask same questions again and again and never get answers even if their suggestions are read before.

I got lucky because (police sketch) kohai read my post and said that my questions will be answered....but most of them are not even if they are read...

Really looking forward toread answers ;)

There used to be a series of Wishlists in which people would suggest features they felt chess.com was lacking. These topics tended to reach 1000 posts or so, with many repetitions (from people who had not read all preceding posts). At this point, a new Wishlist would be initiated. Periodically, there were attempts to structure, summarise or categorize - but to little effect.

Eventually, these wishlists were superseded by a new forum category: Site Feedback & Suggestions. This category currently contains nearly 2,500 posts - including, no doubt, many repetitions.

As Erik's response (cited in a previous post) indicates, chess.com staff have higher priority tasks than maintaining a feature log - and no-one else has the necessary information.

Even if kohai answers all of your questions, her answers are not likely to be substantially different from those given by anyone else who regularly reads the forums.

I am aware of those wishlists(I posted in them).

New wish list should look like this:

forum post rating-maybe

customised trophys-never

polls-allready got them; maybe change them

.....

and stick this topic so everyone can know what is allready discussed . I think that some of moderators can monitor this and update lists(maybe even post links for every suggestion)...Chess.com needs little improvement in publis relations ;)

Why I ask so many questions:

One who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; one who does not ask a question remains a fool forever.

perhaps we can do a better job with a wishlist and our development priorities. i'll try to do something like that soon.

Defacto

I was expecting kohai ;)

I got nasty habit to tell what I think, that is why I often ask strange questions (please dont mistake it for me beeing evil,annoying,disrespectful etc. I am deffinetly not disrespectful)

I was really hoping to get answer on question number kohai CryFrown and all other sad smileys
