Hi, it's spacefem. Just wanted to let you know that it's nothing personal, but when I have suggestions fo the site, I'd much rather make them in the moderator's forum. For one thing, I don't know if my suggestions are valid or not, or if people agree with them... when there's multiple person discussion, it helps me clear things up. That's the main reason I do it. The other reason is that I feel like there are disconnects between this inbox, the to-do list, and what actually probably gets worked on. So if something is discussed in the moderator forum I feel like it got attention. I'm not sure I feel like that through any other ways. I don't even know where the to-do list is.
So yup, that's why I don't take my suggestions to you privately. I did this one though! Better?
I appreciate your note here. Since I pay little attention to the forums unless one of the L2s tells me something needs my attention, that probably isn't the best way to get my attention on something.
For general discussion I am glad you use the forum. After all, that is what it is there for. :-)
If it is just general attention you want, then the forum is the right place. If it my attention you want, my e-mail, phone number, Skype or lastly this box are the best ways to get that.
There are definitely disconnects between the to-do list and what gets worked on. I have two to-do lists, one which has always been public, and another which is kept private for security reasons.
... quite a number of things on there are done, but not marked off yet. I always tell myself I will spend a day going through and tagging them, but it never seems to come to that day.
These days, whatever gets worked on is whatever I can manage. There is a lot going on on this side of the keyboard. More than I care to explain here.
Owning and running advicenators may have been more expensive than I anticipated, and I am not talking about money.
