I was asked a while ago to add page navigation to the top of each multi page thread. Done.

What else is on your wish list? Let's keep this on topic. Feature suggestions. I'm not looking for advice on moderation nor suggestions on how the site is set up.

Thanks

I don't know what's possible, but I'd love some more search options/improvements, especially sorting results by oldest.

We need boneyard merch

That's a solid idea and could help with funding. Feature wise I find the site works well at present, although I occasionally get script and security errors at work (I think from certain ads).

Ability to track and count dumb posts and everyone gets a dumb post score.
So right next to someone's icon in a thread we know their number of posts, likes, and dumb post score.

Maybe call it the "Bonehead Score". Time to identify and filter the idiots.

I have always been perplexed why the team schedules weren't available at the top.

Instead of a dislike button an idiot button with Dwight Schrutes face

Not sure if there is a way to make the original post stand out a little more? Either it is separated from the rest of the responses in some way, or is at the top of each page of every thread. Helps keep things on topic/ add a little pizzaz to the site.

Also, if theres a way to click on the thread and it automatically goes to the most recent post ( on mobile I'll click on a thread and randomly will bring me to page 8 of an 11 page thread)

It goes to where you left off. If you click on the timestamp on the right, it will bring you to the most recent post

Makes sense, maybe be able to choose what page you want to start on the mobile site? It just lists the thread and the most recent reply(which you can't always get to because of what I stated above)

You have to click the time and/or date and it will bring you to the most recent post every time

The ability to ignore a thread from the main page of each forum. The list of the all the threads. So you wouldn't have to go into the thread to ignore. Would save some time but not terribly important obviously.

You still have to not be raking leaves to see it.
I should not have to leave the BY to access a schedule. By leaving the BY there is a good chance I get distracted by menial things like leaf raking, dog walking or walking circles in the basement.

Bring back the old “top contributors” tracker to each thread. Was interesting to see in the megathreads that build up. More stats in general would be welcome.

Maybe a “Dark Mode” mobile style? White letters on a dark background? Would be nice for late night Boneyardin.
