Do you use the SBI Wish List?

The power of democracy is supposed to be harnessed by SiteSell to help extract and identify the best ways to improve Site Build It for us all. The system however is entirely dependent on us all using it

My question for you is do you visit the wishlist forum; if so when was the last time you used it? Do you vote on other people's wishes? Do you have your own wishes?

I used the wish list before but my wishes never came true.

My wishes:

-Twice I have wished for C2 comments to be optional. I have a Q&A forum on my site. Whenever someone submits a question, I always provide an answer. And I do not like having to give my answer a comment title just for it to go through. I just don't see the point in that. I usually end up using something like "my answer..." or "my thoughts..." for the comment title.

-A search option for C2 submissions. I'm pretty sure this did not get attention because I could just use Adsense for search. I wanted a search option for just my C2 submissions, not my entire site. A few times I was looking for a submission myself, but it took a few minutes to find it because I have a long list of submissions.

-Option to analyze a page in the Quick Re-upload section.

I have voted for the following wishes:

-To change the word "day" to "stage" in the action guide. Apparently, some people actually think a "day" is 24 hrs or less. I didn't know this was misleading to some people, but I was always under the impression that I could be working on any "day" for an unspecified amount of time.

-Ability to re-order C2 submissions so that the first submission is listed first.

-And when I first started I wished for more templates to choose from.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few, but these are the ones that came to mind.

Yeah, that "Day" concept was misleading to me. I would rather a more universal term "Step", which is used in user guides all the time to complete a program or procedure or instructions. It is always dependent upon the resources applied to it as to how long it takes to complete it varies with the mechanisms involved.
Once I get through all 10 days or should i say steps and become familiar with the overall functionality of all SBI resources, I can look at the wish list.

Good point about the Day concept. It also can lead to anxiety because people get so frustrated if it takes them 6 days to move to Day 3. And I think SBI! mentions that it's OK if it takes you longer, but I agree Steps would be better. It's amazing how one word can make all the difference in how something is perceived.
