#BuildaBetterEden - Community Planning: November 2012 - Everybody welcome!

Contributor: Ansley Ansley
Hello everyone! Think of this thread as the official Community Suggestion Box. What kinds of things would you like to see on Eden? The scope is your imagination and the current restrictions of an internet forum. The mention of chat rooms is strictly prohibited.

CPM: October - 2012 - Suggestions were geared towards teaching others how to navigate the site better, all where great suggestions and have been passed on to the next level.

CPM: September - 2012 - We talked about general improvements for the site, some of which will be implemented!

CPM: August - 2012 - We discussed community activities. There were a couple of good suggestions and we're still open to hearing more ideas on how to get the community together and fun things to do during those times!

CPM: July - 2012 - July's meeting was about the mentor program, and we were able to snag approval for a couple of those suggestions and hope to roll those out soon.

CPM: June - 2012 - June's meeting inspired a call for some changes, some of which have been implemented, others are still to come.

CPM: May - 2012 - Lots of updates and changes were made from these suggestions!

CPM: April - 2012 - Almost all of the suggestions made in this month thread requiring changes in programming and thus time to get implemented but all suggestions have been noted and administrators will be discussing them in the next couple of weeks to see what we can get rolling in the near future.

CPM: March - 2012) - First, month long thread to discuss your ideas which include requests for a different style of sorting features for the forum to filter out discussion types or users, update the forum categories,
easier search requirements for assignments, and the option to filter what shows on your wall. In addition to those requests, there were also requests for the ability to sort people you are following by who is currently online and who is not, forum moderation to purge/delete/merge threads, and the option to not a view a contributor's activity at all but still follow them.

Where we are as of March 31st, 2012: Requests have been noted, and due to an overwhelming response from the community Edenfantasys has instituted a Forum Moderator and updated the Expectations of Conduct. Please become acquainted with the new guidelines!

CPM: 02.16.2012 - Another short meeting. I announced a few changes in how some of the meetings were going to go. - Sam

CPM: 02.02.2012 - A very short meeting, we discussed some of the new features from the update.

CPM: 01.19.2012 - We spent most of the meeting discussing the new photo uploading feature.

CPM: 01.05.2012 - We discussed things that have been brought up in the past and what their status was, and also things we could do workshops on.

I don't have a suggestion but wanted to say AWESOME updates today!

One of the updates I know folks have been waiting for is now showing on our wall - the notification simply says "rated the review" instead of the actual rating given.

Also love that we can now subscribe comments on the reviews of other EF members.

Thanks to all of you at EF!

You're so welcome!! We have had a lot of little updates here and there and I'm loving all of them. And we're not done yet (we never will be!).

I would love to see a multiple photo uploader for reviews. I also think we should be given the 20 points for every photo on our actual review instead of uploading pictures on the product page.

I would love an App for the android and maybe the Iphone also. One that you can look thru products and read summarized reviews or the experience section. Also, maybe being able to edit profile info or even buy products.

I'd love more follow up review options explaining how we feel about the toy better.

I'd also like some way to go back to a follow up review or have an option for a further update. Perhaps after my follow up, the item broke and I had to get it under warranty. That kind of info would be great to add 3, 6, and 12 months after the review.

I agree, great updates!

Also, as a suggestion - I'd love to see a way to rearrange our wishlists, as in moving them up/down on the list, etc.

You can sort by price, lure, desired, date added and items you've purchased.

We actually recommend not writing a follow up review for at least six months.

Hello, I would love to see the red numbers in our dashboard for messages extended to the mentor program. this way every time we go to our dashboard, we will be aware if there is something from our students.

thank you

I second for iPhone and android apps! That would be great for my phone and tablet.

Me either! I'm super excited about the mini changes. I hadn't been on the site for two weeks from being swamped at school...I come back and there is always new little surprises!

Oh and I second the android ap. I would love it.

maybe switch it up a bit so we could discuss things other then sex, most of us are adults and have kids and would like to discuss parenting/get tips or just anything else in general that we would like to discuss that is no way related to sex or toys, etc, but it is completely understandable if you decide that is something that should not change, its just a suggestion.

I would like this feature too. That and I just realized something I want to add to my first review, but don't want to loose the option to update it down the road.

I would like to see more furniture. Like the loungers. I like the idea of being able to move your wish list around.

I'd like the ability to crop my pictures horizontally or vertically, independent of each other instead of the whole box moving! I forgot what the word is for when the whole thing moves.

I don't like all the white stuff around my pictures and I can't crop them to capture the whole picture I want without it being too large or small.

Thanks

I second this but I think someone stated that this wouldn't work due to apple not allowing adult apps.

That's crap though because you can still go online and find porn!

Maybe a mobile version if an app isn't possible?

I also like xoheartsyou's idea about points for pictures, but maybe something like 10 points w/ a max of 5 a day or something. I don't want to see pointless pictures or repeated pictures spamming up reviews and product pages because of the points.

I should clarify - I meant sort the wishlists themselves, not the items on the wishlist.

If not an official ranking system, it would be nice if there was a forum area that was dedicated to transactions made through the Classifieds section. Something that sellers/buyers can rate their experiences and leave general feedback about how things went.

i just realized that we can't subscribe to comments on our sexis articles. Or am I missing something? if we cam't i would love to see a feature that would allow us to.

I had no idea the recommended time was 6 months? I always get an email when it's been 2 months?

I have a very small suggestion. It's not terribly important but I think a lot of mentors could benefit from it.

I was thinking that it would be nice to be able to place comments on our students like we are able to do on wishlist products. Just for us to see- not the student.

The reason I was thinking about this is because I have a student who lives outside the shipping areas but will be in the USA in January of next year. I told her we could keep the class open until then. I would like to be able to put a little note-to-self by her name that way I don't forget.

It would also be nice to have to track when I sent the last message to the student (assuming they had signed up and were never heard from again- happens A LOT!!!). Some people won't have issues with just going into their "sent" mail to find this out but I have a scary amount of pages of sent mail since I've got all of the students, staff, EF friends, and than random new users who need help that I message.

I could always write it down on a piece of paper but then I'd probably lose the paper. So yeah, just an idea that may be helpful

I can see how that would be nice but the reason they want us to upload the photos to the product page is for the customers who aren't going to browse through all of the reviews!

Sort of a related issue, I would love the ability to create folders and archive mail/messages.

It would be nice to get rid of all those students that don't finish off of our page.

I get so frustrated when students do that, then I end up cancelling the class to let more students in, and I have like 6 or 7 of those on my page. I would like to see only the students that pass show up on our pages.

As for the note to self thing, I like that idea.

What happens when students get a toy for free to do a review and never do one? I don't much care for getting people free toys so they can just go on their way and not finish the class
