Earth will explode!


I changed the configuration so that when an idea is accepted, completed or refused, votes are returned to users (not decrementing the vote count though)

Hello,

Every user starts with 20 votes available, and I think you can earn more along the way by answering and/or commenting questions.

If at some point you run out of votes, we'll see what we can do to give you more. Bribery is an option, obviously. (no it's not :) )

Of course, limiting your votes to the really important matters is the way to go. We already struggle to fit new features so we really need to focus on the most important ones.

Hope it helps!

Thanks Alyzee,


Maybe they can refresh every year? 20 votes for a lifetime seems too short haha.


And I am happy to send some chocolates lol.

All the best,
Raul

Unsure how to ask for additional votes - none are being returned to me if an idea was accepted.

Since none of my suggestions are "accepted or completed or refused", I will never have any more votes it seems.

Seems a strange system to me. As a developer who is selling in the marketplace, I would have thought I could cast a vote, but what do I know?

I bid you adieu.
