We are working very hard to improve the whole site and it will take some time before we get to where we'd like to be.  To help us please post what you'd like to see, and what you think doesn't work - and not just in the chatsite please.

We don't promise it will all happen but we will read all your comments.

Thanks

Yes, I'd also like to have the ability to edit and delete my comments again, I think "dirty words" should be allowed because, in fact, dirty words in the forum aren't actually dirty and I think that's all!

I'd like to edit/delete my comments. I'd also like a list of characters for each book, as it was on the previous website.

On the old forum, there would be a "lightbulb" that highlit yellow if someone posted anything new since your last visist. I think a similar system on this site would be useful. (ex. the text is bolded if a new post in a forum has appeared, etc.)

I'd just like to repeat my comment that you've gone a bit OTT on Spoiler Warnings. If you can't tell what the title of the thread is that the spoilers refer to, they're not much use. Thanks!

I'd like to echo the other comments about the Dirty words and also, the spoiler threads. I think, even if a thread contains a potential spoiler, it is permissable to allow a thread title.

Under "Famous Fans," you have misspelled the name of model Kate Moss. There's no "e" on the end.

I don't think they are referring to the model Kate Moss, but the writer Kate Mosse.

Hello. I hope I can delete my posts and have a new post again. I can't edit my posts but I can edit my reviews. When I'll edit my posts there's an "Agatha Administration" site and I'll need to login there but I can't and it said that the username or password is invalid but I am logined in the real AC site.

I also hope we can review any books or rate them like when we are rating items from amazon. I also wanted book trailers if possible =)

I also hope there will be new online AC games. I also hope we can see everyone's profile and see what's their favorite book, owned book etc. and add them as a friend etc so that it will be more fun and enjoyable.=)

For some reason, I can't quote people's answers in my reply. Has this feature been removed?

Also, a Misc. section would be helpful (for those topics that are a crossover between Poirot and Marple, for instance, or those that include all of AC's books).

I would like to be able to create a poll in the 'Have your say' section, and let other users vote on my poll. Example from the 'Jack the Ripper' Casebook site: http://forum.casebook.org/showthread.php?t=1509

Maybe have the Light bulbs.. but those got annoying because most of the time they didnt work.. I would like it if the time and date displayed next to the posts were adjustable to different time zones.. I find my self a little confused when I look and see I posted something at 12:00 at night. I would also like the wishlists back and perhaps a blogger profile (not personal info) just things like favorite book, your wishlist, favorite Christie movie.. ect ect. And also PLEASE keep the "Dirty Language" ban.. I hate seeing reading something with cursing and swearing.

I also love to see polls like "Who's your fave detective" or "fave book?" and stuffs like that if they like to do it.

I think that the "No dirty words" rule is good, because it's not just adults in here.

I saw that in some replies with spoilers if you see them through the Last reply column in the main part where it shows all the posts of the topic the spoilers can be seen even if inside the post there is a spoiler warning in that particular reply. So if there is a spoiler in one reply you won't see it if you are inside the post but if you are in the main page and you read the last reply it is visible. Did I make myself clear? Is there anyway to change this?
