As the other thread's gotten quite long and a bit messy, I'm starting this new one and a separate bug reporting thread. Post here to suggest new features, improvements on existing stuff, etc.


 
Please explain things as clearly as possible; state what the suggestion is, why we need, how it would be used, etc.


 
Wherein I list the things that we already have a plan to do, and those things that have been suggested but are very much _*likely_* not going to happen. Discussing new things we should want to do is done over "[here.":](/meta/tell-us-stuff-that-needs-doing

As the other thread's gotten quite long and a bit messy, I'm starting this new one and a separate bug reporting thread. Post here to suggest new features, improvements on existing stuff, etc.

Please explain things as clearly as possible; state what the suggestion is, why we need, how it would be used, etc.

Wherein I list the things that we already have a plan to do, and those things that have been suggested but are very much _likely_ not going to happen. Discussing new things we should want to do is done over "here.":/meta/tell-us-stuff-that-needs-doing

*Anyone posting a suggestion already covered in this first post gets a free 12h ban.*


As the other thread's gotten quite long and a bit messy, I'm starting this new one and a separate bug reporting thread. Post here to suggest new features, improvements on existing stuff, etc.

Please explain things as clearly as possible; state what the suggestion is, why we need, how it would be used, etc.

Wherein I list the things that we already have a plan to do, and those things that have been suggested but are very much _likely_ not going to happen. Discussing new things we should want to do is done over "here.":/meta/tell-us-stuff-that-needs-doing
