      @scottalanmiller The system is broken, but then again, so is SW.

        I find it ethically wrong to ask them to join the website simply to write reviews and then boast about all the Spiceheads that use Quorum and love it. That's Quorum gaming the system.

        The system is designed as a game. Gaming it is the intended behaviour. Don't hate the playa, hate the game. If you don't like the rules of the game, you have to either stop playing or change the rules. Don't be upset that people are willing to play it as is.

          I was just going to post something like this... but that quick typing thing wins out every time.

            The game has bugs in it, and the current devs don't seem to care. We need new devs!

                    It annoys me that when it shows you have an unread post in a thread, it takes you to the NEWEST post, not where you last left off. That part is a bit annoying, especially when they are on different pages.

                        Devs have little to nothing to do with it. They don't make decisions like this. Blame the committee that decides where to build a bridge, not the civil engineer who makes sure it doesn't fall down. A dev doesn't get any say in how the system works. That's not the job of a developer.

                          Mine doesn't do that.

                                  I was talking about ML in my thing about it jumping to the newest post instead of where I left off.

                                      I paginate. Makes the site load faster, especially on a phone.

                                        I just like logically breaking it up, and it's easier to remember a post was halfway down on page 4 than to go hunting for it in one long stream.

                                          @thanksaj that's kinda true. I do find that I can find things again more easily. Although I do enjoy the constant stream, constant update approach too. But on 2,000 post threads, it gets to be a mess.

                                            Exactly. There is actually a thing scientists have created as a label for people who can't remember the answer to a question but they remember how to find it. I believe it was called the Google effect but I may be wrong. Like remembering that the answer to someone's question is on page 2, third link down of a given search in Google, but not remembering the exact answer. Used to happen to people long before Google but it was second paragraph on page 67 of this book. Remembering where and how to find it without remembering the actual item.
