I agree with Dano about the open-mindedness. I usually try to make evaluative statements only explicitly as my opinion, but I figure my signature covers that caveat. In the case of anonymous

Chris, in a statement that ignores how others might run their groups, stated firmly: This seems to illustrate where the beta group in the past was much more thoughtful and open-minded toward ideas. It

Hi Chris, Just to clarify, I would never even consider the idea of anonymous posts. Dreadful? It would be worse than dreadful. But I sometimes think it would be good to get honest thoughts from group

No, that's true, but I imagined that such anonymous posts would be moderated, and that the bar for having one's post approved would be quite high. I tried to make the suggestion as simple as

As a group moderator / co - owner I am most unhappy with the idea that our members could post anonymous messages of any sort to our triumvirate. It might not result in "suffering, negative

OK, I was totally confused :) I went to groups.io and assumed that would be the feed page. From there it's 2 clicks to get into a group. The actual feed page, as you obviously know :), is

I've worked on a lot of software projects, used, designed, developed, presided over a lot of different defect/suggestion systems. How well they work seems to depend more on the people who use them

Might not be a bad idea, but you may have overlooked something. There are two ways to get directly to a group from the feed page. Clicking on the group 'logo' to the left of the description or using

I just went to my feed page for the first time (nearly everything I do is via email so don't visit very often), and I rather like it. After all the discussion I thought I wouldn't - I still don't

Right, which is one of the many reasons I had it on my backburner as a thought and hadn't yet suggested it. When Samuel posted his "anonymous" idea, I just thought I'd mention it. -- J Messages

If this were to be implemented just wait until you get your first crank. If you can't or won't put your name to your concerns or complaints for an online group then they're not that essential. And

Brian, I totally agree with this. And with this. We seem to be on the same page now. As for the "anonymous suggestion box' idea, that's something I was thinking about proposing on a per-group basis -

Personally, I see no point in a truly anonymous suggestion box, as Mark has solicited and continues to solicit suggestions from the membership at large. If one is making a suggestion to him there's

Thanks, Dano. And also, I agree about "Likes." But since they're still with us, I'll "Like" that. :-) -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is

We may not be understanding each other. That's not what I proposed. The developers? You mean Mark? :-) -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is

I'm tired of all this noise. The biggest logical fallacy put forth here is that beta is a 'democracy'. Groups are not democracies, and certainly when the developer is involved they are not. Groups are

Please read my suggestion carefully. My suggestion is that suggestions made through the suggestion box be posted straight to the beta list, so it would not affect the developers' burden in any

Bob, this sounds really good to me, modulo details that would need to be worked out. I like the general scheme. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My

Hi all, It’s spring break here and the kids are out of school. So I’m not in front of the computer a lot this week. I will respond to everything hopefully later tonight. Thanks, Mark
