A scroll to the top button would be FANTASTIC. I think about one on here all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860960 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 20:26:45 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 1860960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A way to be notified when someone replies to you on a thread. Also it's really hard replying to multiple people on a thread if you are replying to people on different pages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860940 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:56:54 +0000 spaniellove 1860940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: Agree, I find it helpful when people leave their due date up so I can figure out roughly how old their LO is! Of course that only works with one child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860938 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:52:01 +0000 mrbee 1860938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: yah it might be awkward for discussion purposes to have gold posts in a thread open to all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860937 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:50:12 +0000 Applesandbananas 1860937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: yeah, probably. I'd think a gold reply in a thread would be visible to all gold. </p> <p>What comes to mind is like IL threads. I find it hard to articulate the tips/advice/commiseration for the OP without sharing at least a bit of what I'd experienced but I especially would want IL/family stuff Gold. I could see how it could be challenging to try to follow the thread if you're a Classic member though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860859 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 17:49:47 +0000 ShootingStar 1860859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd really love quoting and an iPhone app. Or maybe some responsive design added so it displays better on mobile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860720 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 15:18:08 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1860720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: displaying the number of OP responses make sense to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860716 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 15:15:45 +0000 Lindsay05 1860716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To repeat others, a notification bubble, square, trapezoid, or whatever would be nice. I feel so bad not replying to people because I just either get busy or don't realize I have been replied to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860649 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:47:47 +0000 sunny 1860649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love a notification bubble and drop down to show me what my replies are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860646 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:46:20 +0000 mrbee 1860646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@OpinionsLikeKittens: Ahh, got it! We programmed the reply feature to work like that on some other sites, but making usernames into links doesn't really work that well on mobile devices (since the browser has to support richtext editing/HTML). So we decided not to do it like that for Hellobee... until mobile browsers get better at support richtext editing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860644 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:45:45 +0000 .twist. 1860644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pirouette: oh yea... mine wasn't a suggestion, I was just trying to understand @Applesandbananas: suggestion. Like you said, I think there would be complications with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860637 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:43:52 +0000 Pirouette 1860637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: ooh that's an interesting idea. like you can reply within the thread but make your comment gold so only gold members can see it? only issue would be what if the OP wants to respond to you? if they can't respond to you, it's a bit awkward, and if they can, it will be confusing to everyone nongold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860636 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:42:55 +0000 reverie 1860636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: What I'm trying to explain is in your comment to me; where it says @opinionslikekittens someone could click my name and it would scroll up to my comment that you were replying to. Sorry I'm really bad at wording this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860631 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:39:38 +0000 makemake 1860631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMccarthy: yes. Seconded. An easier way to reply to multiple people in one thread, even if they posted several pages back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860624 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:35:20 +0000 Synchronicity 1860624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@OpinionsLikeKittens: YES I love that feature! You click on the username of the person that is being responded to, which takes you to their comment, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860617 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:33:13 +0000 mrbee 1860617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@OpinionsLikeKittens: Do you mean the name of the last commenter in the right column of the main boards?

Or just the user you quoted? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860613 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:31:44 +0000 reverie 1860613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked on other forums if someone replied to a comment you could click the user name and it would take you to the comment they were replying to. like clicking @opinionslikekittens would take you to my comment in the thread. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860612 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:31:27 +0000 mrbee 1860612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: Would a built-in notification system help out here? So if you walled someone, they'd be more likely to see and get their wall notification... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860609 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:29:11 +0000 Applesandbananas 1860609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd love the ability to respond to a non-Gold thread as Gold. It feels so disconnected to go to their wall and I'm really bad about checking mine so sometimes if someone has replied there, I don see it for several days and their response doesn't make much sense outside of the context of the thread that was posted several days ago. I hate replying with "walled you" because that's like announcing to everyone that you just told OP something you don't want the rest of them to hear! And maybe a feature that blocks them from replying to you in a non-Gold response. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee/page/2#post-1860587 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:21:37 +0000 mrbee 1860587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Synchronicity: There are some issues with tagging users... this thread spells them out a bit!</p> <p><a href="http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/ability-to-tag-users-in-a-post" rel="nofollow">http://suggestions.hellobee.com/topic/ability-to-tag-users-in-a-post</a></p> <p>We'd love to add this... just need to come up with a design for it!</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-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860550 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:07:05 +0000 Mamaof2 1860550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Because I am lazy..... a TOP bottom on the bottom of a page - so I don't have to scroll ALL THE WAY BACK UP</p> <p>yep, I'm lazy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860538 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:00:59 +0000 Synchronicity 1860538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So many good suggestions here! Notifications (something similar to, I almost hate to say it... Facebook) for new replies would be a big one for me. I'd also love to be able to just type @MrBee (for example) and tag someone who may not have responded in a particular thread. And a live chat for postathons would be pretty cool! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860502 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:38:49 +0000 mrbee 1860502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: @cmomma17: You can weigh in on that suggestion 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> <p>It's something we've been wanting to build, but it has a fair amount of user interface work involved on it... so we haven't gotten to it yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860501 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:38:46 +0000 sunny 1860501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: I agree.

Maybe you would put in their birthday and it would say "E, boy, 8 months" or something like that? I get people confused as to who has what age kiddos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860485 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:31:25 +0000 mrbee 1860485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Is that like threaded comments, where replies are nested under each other? If so, our message board software doesn't support that unfortunately... I agree that I'd love something like that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860469 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:22:24 +0000 ineebee 1860469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd love to see (I don't know what it's called, but) "nested" formatting on the boards? Like Chowhound. I hear that that's pretty complicated and I'm sure someone's brought it up already, but it would be great and much easier to follow certain conversations on long threads. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-features-would-you-most-like-to-see-built-on-hellobee#post-1860440 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:03:27 +0000 mrbee 1860440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Not lame at all!
