Sticky threads are sorely needed.


Threads without any activity for a year (or whatever) should be placed in a "forum archive".
I agree!

The issue I think most needs addressing, which we also discussed recently, is a redesign of the front page and site as a whole. Things are not intuitive nor easy to find.

I went to lay down for about an hour and ended up falling asleep. I was very happy that I had set an alarm on my phone just in case.

I think the random button for reviews is the one I am most interested in.

I can kind of understand why noones done anything with the lingere swap, I prefer to not get used lingere even if its not panties and if I want that I can go to ebay etc.

Chicago is not to far for me but if you made it in lower Michigan we could get the Canadians to come too. It would be only a days drive for most of us.

I had a previous post about what I'd like to see happen off that list.

I think old threads without activity should be moved to a forum archive or be "locked" so that things with outdated information could stay out of the new feed which may confuse people.

Also, a better layout to the forum main page would certainly help. All of the subforums are jumbled up. It's be much easier to navigate if they were in list form. Much easier on the eyes.

I'm checking with Gary to find out the best way to try and get something like that rolling.

I wouldn't mind things like chemises or babydolls or corsets.

locking old threads would be great, especially things that are long resolved like the gift card thread now, I would hate to see that resurrected 6mths from now

Sort of related, but maybe a forum moderator to merge or delete similar threads?

I got two of them yesterday!

(And then I got home and found that there were ID sample packs in the mail, and my boss gave me some more lube samples today. My assignment including two bottles of lube also showed up. I'm drowning in it!)

recycling or upcycling toys is a super attractive idea to me. EF being extra environmentally friendly is certainly a plus!

also, an FAQ for newbies on the main page is a GREAT idea. half the reason mentors are so needed is because finding your way around this beast of a site (with all its magical labrynths... it's really a CUTE beast) is so that newbies can figure out what the hell they're doing. it's very confusing when you start.

i'd be more than happy to give a hand with putting that together if you need/want it.

I would like that too. Sometimes its just really hard to judge size from the info that the manufacturers give.

Some kind of a contest maybe? Have community members submit ideas they draw up and then we could vote on it.

Lol, you can NEVER have too much lube. I got some of the warming/cooling too but I am willing to try anything once, twice if I like it...i.e. the bat that I reviewed lololol!

yeah, ones like old comparison threads, polls that really don't have any real content, the "spam threads" that are all over the toy subforums . . .

In order :

Sticky Threads/Reworking the forum to be more organized

Reworking the main page for noobs

Toycycling!

I would also like to be able to find assignments in the product search that need reviews. There some with one review or two that can't be found in the "products without reviews" option.

I can definitely see how this would be at least a little bit useful, but I also feel like it might deter people from posting in the forums in general because what gives us the right to decide that this post about blowjobs or anal sex is less worthy than other ones? Idk, that's kind of how I feel about it.
