6/10 for 2007. and Assasination wasn't that bad - just too long - but no where near deserving the #2 spot. - Guy Dec 9, 13:12

      - ST has a search feature integrated -- nm - Guigue Dec 9, 13:12
    - i have to say i think people should stop telling Bery what to do with his site. most of us like it just fine, but there seem to be a lot of people - Elf Andie Dec 9, 13:05 18
      - If this were my site, I would hate it if people never asked for anything new. It shows people care about the site and want to stay. -- nm - con_carne Dec 9, 13:10
      - bah. I've made websites before (even used by people here) and for the most part, you have your stuff you build into the site but then much of the - oblique Dec 9, 13:10 12
        
        oh, suggestions are fine, it's the demanding tone that sometimes happens that annoys me. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 9, 13:12
        
        Suggestion is cool, but "bitch and complain" isn't. Bugging everyone with non-existing feature either -- nm - Guigue Dec 9, 13:11 6
        
        I actually thought at first Mop was bagging on Twitter's dumbness. I can't imagine wanting that inanity to show up in *more* places. - TFox Dec 9, 13:12 4
        
        The next step is asking to be able to put ugly repeated background patterns in our posts -- nm - Guigue Dec 9, 13:15 3

        AVATARS!!! -- nm - Spawn si Dec 9, 13:12
        
        All I'll say here is that there is a difference between a polite suggestion and trying to force an implementation. -- nm - David Dec 9, 13:11 3
        
        I'm getting the vibe Mop's just bringing the funny and isn't casting orders. Mop? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 9, 13:12 2
        
        it's not just Mop. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 9, 13:13 1
        
        I guess I just haven't picked up on it ever being a serious order. More a suggestion with a humourous tone. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 9, 13:14
      - [deleted]
      - thank you -- nm - prayformojo Dec 9, 13:08

        Beat me to it. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 9, 13:15
        
        Didn't you request something like that, about a year ago? :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 9, 13:14 1
        
        If you allowed keyword tagging like #suggestionbox, then you'd know, wouldn't you? - oblique Dec 9, 13:15
      - What's wrong with that? You don't like 'em, don't use 'em. -- nm - Mop (229 lbs) Dec 9, 13:04 5
        
        i don't use twitter because i hate those tags, if they come here, it will ruin the conversational feel of the board. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 9, 13:06 3
        
        Plus I really don't see the use. If I'm looking for "celebrity gossip" i won't search slickertalk, I'll search Google -- nm - Guigue Dec 9, 13:09
        
        I don't even use those tags on twitter. You can search for stuff without them. -- nm - Callisto Dec 9, 13:09
        
        Regarding this specific issue, if you want to categorize posts, use del.icio.us in your browser to tag links -- nm - oblique Dec 9, 13:09
        
        I don't like having to pour shit onto my eyeballs, because it causes pinkeye. Don't give me pinkeye with your dumbass # signs. -- nm - TFox Dec 9, 13:05
no matter what some of you think of my Sen. Harry Reid, he has a very good office staff - peglegpete Dec 9, 13:00 4
- I haven't heard of the 6 month thing ever. - Will Hunting Dec 9, 13:04 2
  - he said his office was out of tix, but trading with other senator offices for last minute tix is dome all the time - peglegpete Dec 9, 13:13 1
    - Right...but that still doesn't make sense for the 6 month thing - Will Hunting Dec 9, 13:16
- Or you can just show up at the gate and say you were invited. -- nm - Mop (229 lbs) Dec 9, 13:04
