I agree with Stéph regarding UserVoice's fatal flaw.
One more plug for GetSatisfaction: it combines some of GGroups and
UVoice: If you post an idea, question or suggestion it works a lot like
GGroups. But if you post an idea, it opens voting. Everyone can vote on
the idea, so it measures which ideas are popular without trying to say
whether the latest popular idea is better than last year's popular idea.
By being integrated with the discussion space you get to skip all the
discussions about where the voting lives and how to get there from here.
Big drawback of GSat: They will not reveal the cost, which means it's
too much.
If someone wanted to reinvigorate UserrVoice here are two ideas:
1. Double the limit on votes, and let everybody know that they have new
votes to cast.
2. Even better. cancel all already-cast votes and tell everyone that
voting has been restarted.

Nah, Uservoice has a fatal flaw. New ideas get lost at the bottom of the
list, before they have a chance to gain any votes. There has to be a
better option than that.

Well, that's the point though. UserVoice is supposed to be
maintained. That's not the fault of the users of MLO who used it.
They went there thinking they were posting features in a system that
was going to be maintained. The least Andrey could do is to close it
down if he's not going to use it instead of having it sit there only
to confuse people. To me, using it is smarter because you have
people post features and then the he could easily see which features
poeple wanted most. That doesn't mean they would or could be
implemented. OneNote is using UserVoice and it seems to work
wonderfully for them.

The problem with uservoice is that it has been there too long
and the requests are out-of-date. This is disheartening for new
users whose votes simply disappear into a sea of out-of-date
votes. And presumably most of the requests still there are for
things which MLO has decided not to go ahead with, but they are
at the top of the voting rankings. Also not encouraging!
Moreover, from what I could see, if the user is voting on
completely different software as well their 10 votes get used up
by any votes for the other software, which seems bonkers.
I suggest all old votes on uservoice are archived off and that
MLO starts again there from fresh, with a new account if
necessary. Or a use a different voting site completely.
Either way a decision is needed! And whatever the result is
should be reflected at the top of this Google Group.

Neither am I. I agree that I'm better off without it, and I
won't log in to my old account for MLO. If they really want
our feedback they'll make a better choice available.

Having an account I decided to post there anyways, but
since we do have https://mlo.uservoice.com - private
<https://mlo.uservoice.com> where people can actually
*gasp* vote on features so it is clearly visible what
users want instead of trying to compile that manually
from a list of Facebook posts would make more sense to
me. But then I am more into tech and automation than
being social.
Say...did MLO maybe forget that
https://mlo.uservoice.com - private
<https://mlo.uservoice.com> exists? Sometimes it seems
that way...
