Maybe they are getting Closer....

I am a bit nervous about the explanation report, because there are still those who will report because they have a different point of view then yours. There is another thing that I want done. When I got my friends, I have a whole page of them and I do not exactly check the notify me on the friend page until later on. I would like the notify me be on the profile page, so I think I will ask about that. It would be a good idea, do you not think so?

I think its good that they have started in the right direction as it keeps people from negatively rating people for no reason or just because they dont agree with them.I hope that they are going to get closer to what we wanted.They have been improving the site so we never know.:)

I did notice that when rating several posts that the report button was still there. In my opinion, that is an improvement to the site, but still need a top friends list, so I can find certain members discussions, as a few people on my list post so many that its hard to find anyone else's discussions.

Hi drknlvly, I have also responded to another member stressing this (!) symbol..Honestly, I really don't know the function of that, hahaha! Excuse again my ignorance! I just learned it lately with Lori..ANyway, I am sure they are really monitoring what are the common complain and suggestions of members and they are working on it..Great job right?[em]

Well, i don't understand how that can control trolling... i rated this discussion positive... but the ! did not disappear... unlike before where it will just say rated... well... maybe after a while... we will feel what this new upgrade is all about... and i hope this will definitely control the trolling of some members...

Well I am glad you told me what the upgrade was because it happened yesterday and I did not have a CLUE what it was they had upgraded LOL. Shows how observant I am ah??? It is good if they are listening to what the members actually want, they should do really as we are the ones that keep it all going. If it was not for the members then the ship would sink really. Plus we are the ones on here all the time and so really we know what would work best.

They might be, but we will not truly know until another big change comes our way. We have to be patient and see what other changes MyLot is going to make. They have made a lot as far as I can see, but I can also see that they still have more changes to make.

I noticed it this morning and was not sure what it was going to accomplish. I think it's not that great of a change because you can rate it positive AND report it at the same time???

I did not notice it. I would like to see a duo rating system. 1) Did the person put real effort into the answer. 2) Do you agree or disagree with the answer. I think it would be interesting - let's say a person is talking about an abusive relationship but they have 3 kids, their is no abuse involving the kids. Find out what percentage of people agree with with the advice given. A person could say I think you should leave and nothing else, you could agree with the answer but since they did not back up their reason why rate them differently for the effort in the answer. Another person person could say - the kids need 2 parents and since they are not the subjects of the abuse, you should stay. You married this person, you knew what they were like and you should stick it out. - MORE EFFORT IN THE ANSWER so they get a plus but you can disagree with the advice. See what I mean.

I did see that. As for whether they are getting closer to giving us what we want, I don't know. One can only hope. But, I think that in order for them to actually be getting closer to it, that would mean that there wasn't a rating system that can be abused in the first place. LOL! But, we can hope! Perhaps they will make it so that you have to respond in order to rate. That would help. If you can rate people without responding, that would keep the brats from holding on to their anonymity.

no, i never noticed it. thanks for informing me, guess i have to pay more attention around here lol.

I didn't notice this either, you're very observant. It's good that they're still making changes, it makes you wonder what the next change will be. I hope that they'll tackle some of the trolling problems too.

Huh, what do you know? I hadn't noticed that. Then again, I don't rate people very often unless I'm either very impressed or very disgusted with what they said. MyLot seems to be making lots of little changes lately, though, so I don't know if they're going the way so many people want them to, or what. That would be nice, though.

what are u scream for? i'm new in the comunity and the site looks normal no?

Good observation! I haven't been here for a couple of days and I hadn't noticed that yet. Thanks for bringing it to my attention and have a great day!
