That real estate on the bottom is overlooked by me, but it is helpful. I can usually puzzle them out. </p> <p>@MrBee: that's good to know about the due date clubs. The long threads are hard for me. I think we're also on the same page about anonymous commenting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600933 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:49:30 +0000 MrsTiz 600933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: True. What if the comments were geared more towards answering questions.. perfect example, the thread that was anonymous because the OP was pregnant with a baby with a birth defect and wanted to terminate. Another user had the same experience and was able to offer some fantastic advice to her, but she went anonymous to do it. That is what I see the comments being used for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600906 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:45:30 +0000 Pirouette 600906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: yes! alerts other than email notifications. i don't like email notifications, but i like knowing if people respond to me!</p> <p>and quotes are nice too.</p> <p>@Beetones: i know there's a search function, and i've used it, but i always find it hard to find on my screen (is there some irony in there?) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600904 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:45:19 +0000 mrbee 600904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: I see the value in why people might want to go anonymous for a thread...</p> <p>I don't see the value as clearly for anonymous commenting? I mean, it's there... but the potential for abuse feels much stronger? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600897 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:44:09 +0000 mrbee 600897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>&lt;&lt; A way to facilitate for due date clubs to have more than one, super long thread. Or perhaps this is already possible? &gt;&gt;</p> <p>@Happygal: Due date forums can already have as many threads as they'd like... not super clear on why the due date forums usually prefer to have one giant thread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600890 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:43:30 +0000 MrsTiz 600890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: What if you (or admins) had to approve them first? That way people aren't going anonymous to be mean. You can tell who the anonymous accounts are anyway, right?</p> <p>So unlimited threads and maybe a limited number of comments, or everything has to be approved? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600882 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:42:26 +0000 .twist. 600882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: I hope the anon feature would only be for the specific thread they created anonymously. I would hope that for any other thread you couldn't choose to go anon just to be snarky or something like that. That would be awful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600881 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:42:15 +0000 MaisyMay 600881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: If you look at the bottom, on the right side, there's a list of all of the acronyms that you can access. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee/page/2#post-600874 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:41:11 +0000 mrbee 600874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: We might consider allowing anonymous threads from an existing account, but I think allowing anonymous comments could be a dangerous thing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600861 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:39:22 +0000 Happygal 600861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not wild about deleting posts and going anonymous. I know the idea is to add privacy and encourage people to share openly, but I think it could go the other way and cause people to not be as careful and kind with what they say. Posts that are there one day and gone the next would be frustrating, and I wouldn't value the responses from anonymous folks as much as people I'm getting to know here. </p> <p>@MaisyMay: a chart or something like that would be helpful. I can imagine a bunch of different helpful stickies, like book recommendations on sleep, how to start cloth diapering, etc. As someone who loves data, this actually excites me. I've been putting together lists here and there on my own. Like the thread the other day on slings and all the acronyms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600842 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:35:48 +0000 mrbee 600842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: Added your suggestion here!</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/anonymous-posting-option" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/anonymous-posting-option</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600841 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:35:35 +0000 T.H.O.U. 600841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>- LOs ages next to name (gold only)<br /> - hide threads and comments (or maybe make gold only) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600831 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:33:42 +0000 mrbee 600831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: @MrsTiz: Any suggestions on how we should format a scroll to top button?</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/scroll-to-top" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/scroll-to-top</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600824 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:32:38 +0000 mrbee 600824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: @scg00387: Would be interested in your thoughts here!</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/allow-parents-to-add-their-kids-to-their-profile-page" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/allow-parents-to-add-their-kids-to-their-profile-page</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600814 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:31:03 +0000 mrbee 600814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: @stargal: @Mrs. Pen: @Arden: You can weigh in on a potential Classifieds feature here!</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/classifieds" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/classifieds</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600801 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:29:17 +0000 stargal 600801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: LOVE this idea!</p> <p>yes and maybe signatures of lo's names or ages...i mean nothing to crazy long like ive seen some other baby sites do but something short to remember everyone's lo ages or pregnancy stage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600796 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:28:36 +0000 MrsTiz 600796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. Ability to bold, strikethrough, underline, etc.<br /> 2. I would like a little alert too. I attached a picture of what I have in mind, where an envelope pops up when you have a wall post?<br /> 3. I would be open for another row under "Gold/ Pomegranate / 4381 posts", and it could say "Pregnant with first" or "Vanessa, 6 months"<br /> 4. Ability to delete your own posts/comments<br /> 5. Ability to go anonymous for a comment (Gold feature)<br /> 6. Scroll to top button<br /> 7. More tabs at the top - maybe a Series tab, a Classifieds<br /> 8.

Every anon post would be anon and I think that would make the guessing games WAY hard and would be much more anon that way. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600753 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:22:11 +0000 Happygal 600753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Searching threads.</p> <p>A way to facilitate for due date clubs to have more than one, super long thread. Or perhaps this is already possible? </p> <p>Stickies, or something likes this. So if someone went to charting board, there could be something they could click on that would always be at the top explaining the ins and outs of charting. There's so much good information floating around here, and it would be nice to compile it into one spot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600745 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:19:55 +0000 Mrs. Pen 600745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: THIS. I have like two other accounts from things I posted anonymously hahaha. It's a pain to log out and log back in. I feel this could be abused to maybe there could be a limit of say 10 anonymous posts per user?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-like-to-see-on-hellobee#post-600744 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 13:19:54 +0000 sunny 600744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Quoting please! I added this suggestion awhile ago! I get so confused when people say "me too!" and I have no idea what they are agreeing with. :-) </p>
