We will probably open up the site starting next week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11842 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 17:03:48 +0000 Wondermommy 11842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I smell a chat feature/room? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11837 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:59:11 +0000 mrbee 11837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will not have a private area in the foreseeable future. However we do have plans for other ways to better serve the privacy needs of our members!</p> <p>More on that later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11835 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:58:00 +0000 .twist. 11835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: That would be awesome. I love the idea of a private community or partially private community. I think it would make everyone a lot more comfortable sharing details about their lives and making friendships if it weren't so easy to google search everything and everyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11833 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:50:26 +0000 BSB 11833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Spin-off from Twist's comment, is it possible to have a private and a public area? Maybe we could check off a box, if we want a thread or comments (maybe?) private. </p> <p>The WB thing with the whole site being searchable on google kinda bothers me. Maybe allow the titles of the topics be searchable via google just not all of the comments. </p> <p>Yeah, I know this gets a little hairy. Just a suggestion.</p> <p>@MrBee- Oh, thanks for looking into that 'command' issue for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11820 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:37:09 +0000 mrbee 11820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee - I looked into the Mac issue, and am not sure how to fix it. Sorry! I'll keep looking into it... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11818 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:36:04 +0000 .twist. 11818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It can't just stay this way? our little secret? lol! </p> <p>I think it runs pretty smoothly. I have only been here for 24 hours but haven't run into any issues so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-11813 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:32:58 +0000 BSB 11813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember where this was mentioned but do you know if there will be a fix for the 'control' and the 'shift' key issue. Or when I'm on a mac, the 'command' key.</p> <p>Also, it would be great if clicking on a link in a thread creates a new window instead going right to it from the window I have Hellobee open. It's annoying when I go to look for my Hellobee tab in my browser and notice it's not up there because I clicked on a you-tube link. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7217 Sat, 29 Oct 2011 14:13:17 +0000 Red 7217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Release the Kraken!" :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7158 Sat, 29 Oct 2011 00:04:35 +0000 Boogs 7158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's ready. Sure there are tweaks that can be made, but there probably will always be. When waiting for perfection, you'll wait forever. I think HB is in amazing shape. The only thing I think people will hope for when they come swarming in is an app to help feed their addiction. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7137 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 21:25:21 +0000 MaisyMay 7137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with PP about loving our little beta community! I would wonder when pics will be able to be posted. That's one thing that I think would really enhance HelloBee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7121 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 18:05:01 +0000 mrsjyw 7121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BABYCHIN - my selfish side wants to keep it to our lil' beta community. :P</p> <p>But, honestly, HelloBee looks and runs amazing! I think it's ready for public use! As the community grows, I am sure Mr. &amp; Mrs. Bee will be able to add on a lot of "bonus" features that members are looking for! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7118 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 16:59:22 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 7118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the community too... it's nice to see the same people commenting over and over... </p> <p>but I do believe it is ready for public consumption. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7107 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 16:10:52 +0000 Rubies 7107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aw, I love the little community we all created here! Like @Andrea said, it'll be interesting to see how others will take to Hellobee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7087 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:54:55 +0000 Andrea 7087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I think it is ready. I think we are all interested to see what the "new blood" will be like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7058 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 13:54:03 +0000 winniebee 7058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with others that aside from some minor tweaks, the site is ready to go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7054 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 13:31:53 +0000 looch 7054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What mamadreams said. I'd prefer a more message board like format, something like VBulletin, where you can see the categories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7048 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 13:01:01 +0000 rawrasaur 7048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to see it open up and grow sooner rather than later. I think that there are changes that I would like to see with certain features, but overall nothing that keeps it from growing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7047 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:54:36 +0000 mediagirl 7047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrBee - yeah, I hear ya. Other than that, I think it's ready to go! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7032 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:45:07 +0000 MamaDreams 7032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's ready to be opened up, and then changes can come as time allows. One thing that I think would REALLY help the boards explode once it opens up is some sort of tiered view of all of the boards. It's a little tough when you can either only see the top threads on all of the boards or go to the drop down for specific sub-boards. It would be great to visually see all of the categories at once. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7015 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:31:06 +0000 Mrs. Marbles 7015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's ready! I don't see anything at first glance that would prevent Hellobee from succeeding with the public! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7013 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:29:56 +0000 katdevargas 7013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I fourth that! The site is really coming along so nicely &amp; I think anything additional that you/the community want done can be dome after the site is public </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7011 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:27:07 +0000 tequiero21 7011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i agree with blushink and anyonesays. i think there are some tweaks i'd love to see but it's not something we need to hold up the site for. this site is great and would be awesome to see some new blood and see what others have to say. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7009 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:23:58 +0000 theotherstark 7009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so too, @blushink! (that reminds me - are is there going to be a reply function eventually?)</p> <p>Mr Bee, the site seems to be running really smoothly, and everything is lovely and fabulous. It seems like the community is really growing! I love it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-7001 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:13:38 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 7001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's ready and additional features can be added later on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-6989 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:09:17 +0000 mrbee 6989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink - You only need to create an account to post or comment on the boards. For the blog, you can comment as a non signed in "guest". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-6988 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:08:42 +0000 theotherstark 6988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a "next" button when you're reading a blog post? This is very minor, though :) Exciting that things are nearly there!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-6984 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:07:06 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 6984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm, do people need to create an account to "comment" ? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-6976 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:56:27 +0000 mrbee 6976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee - Once we open up the site, users won't need to log in to see posts... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-the-hellobee-site-ready-to-be-opened-up#post-6974 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:55:36 +0000 winniebee 6974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a question - will users always need to log in to see posts (or will it be like Weddingbee where the general public can lurk and read posts, but have to log in to post?) </p>
