It's great to see a mechanism to prioritize user requests. That said, Uservoice is a terrible choice (as shown by hundreds of user complaints here<http://feedback.uservoice.com/forums/1-general-feedback/suggestions/1297591-periodically-increase-number-of-votes-available>or here<http://feedback.uservoice.com/forums/1-general-feedback/suggestions/2300-per-user-vote-limits> or here<https://feedback.uservoice.com/forums/1-general-feedback/suggestions/8212-ability-to-create-new-suggestion-with-zero-0-vot>), because the same limited number of votes for all users has two major flaws:
1. It assumes all users are equally good at coming up with good ideas. Imagine Thomas Edison or Steve Jobs had to use Uservoice. They would have no more influence than Average Joe. 2.The point of having only X votes is allegedly to encourage users to vote only on the most important features to them. What tends to happen in reality though, is that users vote on the FIRST features they realize they need, or the FIRST ones they see on the UserVoice website. After that, they run out of votes. *Extremely* few users will go back to remove their votes from a feature they voted for first, and instead vote for a more important feature. What the MLO team can do (if they want to keep using UserVoice), is to increase the number of votes to, for example, 100. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
