Yay i signed

I don't see how you will get them to pay any attention to a petition that's asking them to pay attention to their own website.

I signed the petition

it forced me to sign a bunch of random petitions before I could sign it but I did

It didn’t make me do that hmm

lol

Ah yes, petitions...the one thing that ALWAYS works.

Petitions are useless and never work!

If y'all wouldn't mind me being an Elo apologist for just a moment I believe the issue is just a misunderstanding between how Elo wants to go about making changes and what the community precisely wants.

Since they're the new owners, they want to be accepted and be seen as caring and already doing things around the site. That's why one of the first things they have done is redesigning the logo and the main page of the site. Everyone can immediately see that things have changed and that Elo is doing work. And it seems they'll keep going this way for a bit, focusing on bigger changes instead of fixing bugs. They'd rather work for a long time adding new widgets and customizations to user profiles, and adding more moderation tools before fixing the notification and submittion bugs which way less users would notice.

So all in all I wouldn't say that they aren't listening at all, they are aware of the majority of the issues raised by the users but they simply have different priorities. They'd rather make visible surface-level additions to the site to signal that they are working on improving things, rather than fixing the more in-depth obscure issues that the more experienced users are calling their attention to.

Of course all of that still isn't necessarily a valid excuse, but I just wanted to share (what I'd imagine to be) the other side of the issue.

I myself am just happy that things are happening.

Update:

Fair enough

Ah yes, the feedback form and forum that continually get ignored. Grand suggestion.

If I'm going to be honest, trying to personally get lewisandspark to look at the feedback form definitely wasn't an appropriate thing to do.

I agree, it was kinda shit to do

the petition worked Kappa
