| Too long? I'll take care of that: Fix 1 bug or add 1 suggestion a week or
4 a month and BL has a ton of happier sellers and buyers. Plus it shows progress.
Many of us know that there are many problems and suggestions that need fixing
and adding. Please take these debates elsewhere. I just want to publish an idea
that will not only show progress with Bricklink, but slowly make everyone happy.
How hard would it be to fix 1 bug or add one suggestion per week? Here is a couple
really simple ones off the top of my head.
Update the statistics pages. All of them.
Add percentage to feedback like this: jamesuniverse (###) 100%
Fix the download orders function (can't download while ignoring filed orders)
Now please don't use this to list every simple fix. I just listed mine. Even
if the fix was small, imagine how much happier the community would be? Progress!
Who cares if it is so miniscule. It shows 3 things.
Progress
Listening to Members
And most importantly, Communication!
This could be done weekly. 1 week to fix 1 small bug or idea? I find that reasonable.
If not, how about 4 per monthly cycle! Of course you can do more, but seeing
progress would:
Open many stores again.
Lessen the forum debates
Probably get BL a better name (as in reputation)
Please don't let this be a debate again, but I feel this could be helpful.
You don't need to build BL 2,3,4,5+.0 to replace 1.0. Just fix a couple things
every once in a while and boom. Happy members, yet you can still do whatever
admins do. :p
I try to stay out of the debates, riots, suggestions, etc. But from what I have
heard. Not much is good.
Hope this doesn't get me stop listed. :p Just trying to be realistic and
have a little peace around here.

Fix a fix that re-broke.

I voted yes, nice idea.
And for week 1 they already have code in hand that they could implement!

| I think they are fixing things. They just do not announce all of them.
A recent update made enter my address in "standardized" manner. My address was
correct, but there seems to have been an update to the form. At fist sight, this
seems to be a good idea. This website depends on reliable addresses so buyers
can buy and sellers can sell. That is until you realise that every country sets
its own standard. Now my address is no longer standardised for the Dutch mail
Later, I found a suggestion asking for this change (including comments explaining
why this is not a good idea).
