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

Contributor: Ansley Ansley
Hello everyone! Think of this thread as the official community suggestion box. If you have an idea you feel would add value to the website or community, please leave a comment in this thread and we'll see what we can do to get it implemented. We love to hear your feedback!

If you like, you can read through some of our previous meetings to get an idea of what kinds of things you can bring up, or just have fun reading about the things we've talked about!

CPM: May - 2012 - All suggestions have been noted and some things are in the works. We're doing a lot of updates and spring cleaning still, so keep a lookout for new changes!

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 have a suggestion about the lingerie section. Can you please add the new companies current size charts for us. I've had to go hunt online for Rene Rofe and I know that not all size charts are offered. If all the new companies size charts were added around the same time new clothes were added, that would be greatly appreciated.

I have two suggestions:

I would like to see the country of origin on product pages. I try to buy things made in the USA or EU and a lot of them are made in China, even the high-end products. It's a pain to have to find out from the company where the product is made. I don't think I'm the only one who'd like to see this.

If I'm not mistaken, currently you cannot add links and images or text formatting to private messages. I'd like to see this made possible.

Just want to say that I love the website! So much great info and especially helpful for beginners!

I do have one or two suggestions for searching for products. Often a product will have a popularity rating of "Top 10 vibrators" or "Top 50 Masturbation Sleeves". This is really helpful, however it would be nice to click on this and actually see what the top 10 vibrators are.

Also for a lot of the sales, like today's 25% off vibrators, you can click the ad and get a list of everything involved in the sale. However, then you cannot sort them by price or best sellers. The ability to sort would be great!

Thanks again for all the hard work!

I do like the idea of Assignment filtering,because every time i want to order my assignment,i always get the message that i can't get it because of the reviews that are already out on it.

If they decide to do it,it'll be twice as easy to get the assignment done! Like if i want a corset,and i do the filtering,i can see my options,and i won't have all the frustration! It's a brilliant idea,don't you think?

This might be a rant... but... it's something I'd like to see!!!

I love taking part in comparative discussions for example; which do you like best and why? Or which one is better?

But I hate it when I have to take the time to click, wait for the page to load and open only to discover that it is a discussion on lingerie.

Not that there is anything wrong with lingerie that is... at the moment, I am just not interested in fancy knickers. I'm still working on my toy collection.

For me, it takes ages to wait for a page to load as I have to use a proxy to see and do anything on Eden and sometimes I could be waiting a while to see a page. I get a little frustrated that is all it is.

Could we install a strong suggestion or perhaps even have the Forum Moderator slip into the title of comparative threads to include "Lingerie" or "Vibe" or "Dildo" or "Massager" or "Cock Ring" so it's easier look over or easier to find threads that a person might be interested in?

Merci buttocks!

Yes please this helps avoid confusion because we're not always the same size by the standards of every manufacturer. Plus it can be tough to get accurate numbers when searching for some companies charts online. There is one on here, I don't remember the manufacturer, that has some pieces listed as s/m and m/l but when I looked them up I couldn't find the measurments on their charts for this. It would be so nice to have this information accessible. Thank you for all of your hard work.

I was wondering if the free assignment lists could be fixed. Sometimes when I'm looking for lingerie to put on my wishlist I find that its old but there's no review for it. Furthermore several of these items are not listed to be reviewed as free assignments. Now I know that we have many great reviewers that will write something up without it being assigned or maybe this was given to someone who did not follow through. But sometimes an item in the lingerie section can go months without a review. I would like to suggest that the list either be updated for all sections of Eden or these items be given to dependable reviewers as push assignments. If you're interested I can even give you a list of some items I am aware of where this is the case since it might be a lot of work for whomever is in charge of this task.

I usually look at the Category of the posts on the right to determine if I want to look at a certain thread or not, and usually lingerie posts are posted in the correct category. That's usually a good label for me.

I'm still hoping for a 'less than 3 reviews' thing for the assignment search!

Also, would it be possible to filter items that are on sale? I've had the issue where I see an item that's under my price-limit, and I go and check it and... nope! It's usually 65$ instead of under 50$.

I'm agreeing with the 'top 10/top 50' lists - I always see those and go, "What are the other ones? Hmm..."

There's one more point that I'm curious on - I see a lot of product pages that aren't up on the main website yet, but I can never tell if these are actually going to be in-stock. Could there be a note on the page somewhere that says "this product will be in stock in the future!", please?

On the public profile pages, could we add "mentor/former mentor" to the relationship checkboxes?

ETA: Could we also be given the ability to turn off lightbulbs on threads we no longer wish to participate in?

I think you should put a walkthrough of how to use the eden points, how to get them, etc. Would help. took me about 20-30mins to kind of get a hang of it, still a little shaky on what I can do to earn points, I know theres forums and posts and stuff like that.

I don't want this to be taken as a rant (this is the best website I have found!) b/c those are not my intentions. I wanted to mention it and I'm sure it's been said before. I'm still getting used to the way the whole community works but the biggest thing I have seen was the confusion of mentor program/advanced reviewer. When I started I read through all the instructions for the mentor program and all the rest, what I found confusing was that to become an advanced reviewer you would need 2 reviews and then the community will vote on your upgrade, or go through the mentor program and if it goes well you will become an advanced reviewer upon graduation. I was confused b/c when I joined the mentor program I had already completed one review, which now I know was ok. At first though I felt really badly for my mentor b/c I thought I was taking something away from them, which I didn't want to do as they are helping me with my reviews. All ended fine but maybe a comparison page explaining that there are different options to become an advanced reviewer and the choice is up to you. (I know there are pages that break this down but I mean strictly a comparison page that would list benefits, pros and cons of each.)Now that I am more familiar with Eden's, I think I have figured it all out but at first I felt like I was inundating my mentor with questions b/c I didn't know anyone else in the community and was a little intimidated to ask anyone else. It was frustrating b/c you have to wait for a response from your mentor who may not be available for a few hours or days. This is normal and I'm not complaining I mean we all have lives but when you have to start and stop to wait for an answer it can take some steam away from you. If there is a comparison page and I have just missed it please let me know. Thanks!

I also like the idea to filter what has less than 3 reviews on it, so that I know what is up for free reviewing. also when stuff is out of stock maybe post an estimated restock day, that would be very helpful, like if I wanted to order something for a special day and to be able to figure out if I would need to pick something else to get in time for that day. and what about a customers who bought this also bought this, have seen this on other pages and sometimes leads to more sales. love the site though and love being able to read others reviews on products and ask questions about the reviews.

It would be a great idea to have some kind of comparison! When I became advanced, I had no idea what the mentor program was, so I didn't join it. Now I wish I would have.

Two suggestions I would like to add:
1) On the reviews would it be possible for the reviewer to be able to see the traffic of people viewing there review. That way we have a better idea of how many people actually read what we write. I know we have to voting system right now but I don't think that accurately depictes how many people are reading. Or would that lead to problems with reviewers who might want everyone to vote?

2) Is there a way to filtered the number of products that show up in one page while viewing a site? If the number of items being searched reaches beyond 9 pages right now we cannot 'view all'. It's kind of tedious having to go through 10 or so individual pages when we could just increase the number of items viewed per page. This way we can have, say, 3 long pages rather than 12 short.

Comparison threads are one of the things we actually can't edit. Polls are tricky like that.
