We see many suggestions for new features. Some good, some not quite so good. Some complex to implement, some trivial.
A simple voting system of thumbs up/thumbs down (perhaps next to the "report post" icon) would allow BB to quickly see the most popular ideas.
More importantly, how about some more visibility from BB about whether ideas are being considered, accepted, and put in a developer's queue of work?
There's a recent request for the 25-limit to be increased on certain items e.g. fish deposits, buffs, recruits. Every single reply was supporting it. It is technically simple to implement. If BB were to post that they had accepted the suggestion, and lock the thread, it would save players sending PMs to BB_Alpaca, adding further "+1" requests to the thread, and would make it clear that no further requests were necessary. Yes, it might take a few weeks to actually happen, but at least we would know it is considered a worthwhile idea by BB and we can stop asking.
If other players like this idea they can use the thumbs-up button to vote for it... oh, no you can't.
