If there is anything I as a user can do to help, please let me know. Aye. I feel equally bad for those who put in effort to suggest features that haven't even been seriously looked at in past 4 years and that ended up in some unexplorable archive. I also feel sorry for the people that got a thread endorsed with a bunch of unrelated suggestions the mod team cannot appreciate. And I feel sorry for those who had a good idea endorsed that isn't listed in the overview threads yet, so the chances are small that the mod team finds it once they start searching for specific or related subjects. Finally I feel sorry for Mevans and his buddies for all the effort they put in numerous features without getting clear overview in time of relevant suggestions made by the community over the past four years.

Not mentioning wiki moderators and other dedicated contributors who continuously have to deal with so many repetitive suggestions throughout the years, and with criticism of both mod team and community members for not being effective both in filtering out the pointless additions on the one hand and in ensuring no original notions are filtered out. Oh, I did mention that.

Meanwhile we have an evergrowing oceanic soup of community endorsed suggestions that hold much valuable notions that may be of use to the mod team. Time to place some additional filtration capacity in the numerous rivers and sewers that debouch in that ocean. Thank you. I do understand that. I never said I didn't feel bad for the moderators. I do. If you are being sincere, then I am with you for a long way, but if you are being sarcastic, (as I can't tell for sure in type) I don't believe I deserved that. All I was trying to say, was that it might be worth clarifying a little more what types of suggestions be allowed.

If I hurt your feelings, you mave my sincerest apologies. That was not my intent. I see no need to take anything I mention personally. I don't expect my words to be taken personally either, certainly when I'm not using 'you' in a quoted reply. ;) Understood!  Thank you.
