Forums

I was just reading the "Improvements Requests" thread and I wanted to reply, but couldn't. At the bottom of the postings the word "reply" appears, but no actual reply box. Since that was to be my first attempt at replying, I had to go out of that thread and into another to discover that I was supposed to be seeing a reply text box. The thread was at 31 posts when I was looking at it. I do have some other "Improvement Requests" I'd like to post, especially to some thoughts/comments in that thread particularly.

I saw another topic in this forum with exactly 31 posts that would not let me reply - "What would make bigthink.com easier to use?"

Is there a limit of 31? Seems arbitrary to me.

So far anything under 31 I can reply to.

I, too, wanted to post an improvement suggestion but came across the same issue as you did. Hopefully BIG THINKER will stumble upon this topic.

If so - suggestions not already posted: send an email when someone posts a comment or reply to your idea (feature could be turned off in the profile section) and have a counter to indicate how many people viewed your idea, in case they didn't post a response or comment.

Now that I view this page again, it's not visually appealing to have the first two lines in white and the rest in the background color.

We're looking into this issue. Thanks for posting it.

Peter, feel free to e-mail me (assuming you have access to my e-mail address) to ask questions about the problems I've seen on Big Think, especially the forums. I would be happy to be a an "active" beta tester.

Thanks elevatorsout :)
