Feedback on the Top 10 lists



Recommended Posts

I appreicate the hard work of the mods, etc. to keep the board up and running. This is an incredibly useful and supportive place. I also know change is essential to survival.

However, in my opinion, the new Top10 lists present too much information on the homepage. It's too overwhelming a visual to take in and be useful at first glance. I liked having the top 5 recent posts and the newest joiners. But to see the top 10 posters and the top 10 thread starters is too much information. People come here to read the threads. With the stats at the top, it makes it appear that this place is stats driven instead of information driven. It also stretches my screen.

As these pieces of information are interesting, perhaps you can move them to the bottom of the screen with the list of people currently online. That way if people want to see them, they can scroll to the bottom to view them. Or maybe you can have that info customizable by user? Or in an expandable view so each person can click the subject to view the related statistics.

I know that no one asked lil ole Nathalie her opinion, but I thought I'd share it anyhow. :uwelcome: I design marketing materials, and part of my job is to make webpages, brochures and marketing collateral pleasing to the eye. I couldn't help but provide a bit of feedback on the recent changes to the site. Take it, of course, for what it is: one person's opinion.

WOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Thanks SO MUCH - I couldn't *see* the little arrow because the stupid stats stretched my screen to BFE.

Thanks, Alexandra.

Problem solved.

Let's vote....who wants top 5 and who wants Top 10 ? ;-)

I'm OK with either 5 or 10, however the "latest posts" column sticks way out to the right on my computer. I actually have to move the screen to see the latest postings. I don't know if it's just my computer or how it's actually set up. If it's not mine, I wouldn't mind seeing the "latest posts" moved to the left since that's what I use the most up there. The most "top posters" doesn't change much over time.

Saying this, I want to make clear that I'm not complaining. I'm very grateful to you, Alex, for this site and as well to all the moderators. I'm so very happy to have found you all.

Not to sound at all ungrateful, as I know it was a lot of work, but I too would prefer to have the new posts to the left, so I don't have to scroll my screen left to right unless I have a need to see who the top poster is. As it is, when I scroll to the right to view it, then it has to go back to the left for the posts to be in correct viewing position.

Maybe like Nathalie said, towards the lower screen with the current users, and chat room activity, birthday area.

It really doesn't matter, I am gonna be here using it anyway!!! And I do appreciate the efforts to keep everything updated--you rock!

Do you still need to move your screen to see the latest postings ?

I do! It extends to far to the left and I have to scroll over.

*edited* Never mind, I can actually see the important part of the new post easily!

Alex -

I totally love you. YES! It's all better. No more scrolling to see what's to the right of my screen. Thanks for your responsiveness and all of your hard work to keep the site up and running so smoothly for us all.

You rock!

Service with a smile....wow I had forgot all about that!!!

Seriously tho--thanks for caring what we thought about it, I know it was something that took a lot of time.

It is great now, we can see all we need to without moving the page!

Thanks again!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
