every time I rearrange my friends list it automatically changes the order to something else...is it just me?...am I doing something wrong?
I experience the same If i move someone I have to move them one by one passing all friends.... but then again could be the hair colour

Never had a problem before, but just looked at it, and it seems my friends list has reversed itself on its own.

Everyones profile should be fixed up now and friends are back in the correct order. The re-shuffle *should* now be resolved, for good!

We need a Panic Button..... for when we are at work or creeping online late at night so our other halves don't catch us!
We have one at www.historiaslush.com (bottom right corner).
I am not all that keen on having one here too unless there's pressing member demand. I find them a little distracting and interfere with the site design. It's still doable if necessary.

We could have a more specific voting system or add a more specific one next to the one we already got.
I got the idea from this Poetry site in Swedish, and it's really helpful to see what you might need to work on.
Also, it helps a person not get beaten up by an over all 3 when he/she gets a 5 in one of the categories.
The categories they use are:
Language
Structure
Overall
Expression/emotion

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

What if the voting is already too complicated for some people? Why don't we just go to a thumbs up or thumbs down style of voting? Yes, I liked it or no, I didn't. Then if they vote no we can have a dialogue box pop up that asks them if they want to change their vote. That way everyone is encouraged to get amazing votes and no ones feelings get hurt.

Point taken, you don't think its a big deal or worth talking about, apparently. We get it.
But if the voting system is not to be fussed over or taken seriously, then what other parts of the site should we just not concern ourselves with? It's hard enough to write stories worthy of being shown to the world, and in some cases have courage to post them, only to feel like you're going to get voted badly, for reasons having nothing to do with the quality of the writing.
And save the whole "maybe the story really DOES deserve a low vote" argument. Anyone can attest that what I, and others, am referring too happens a lot. We're not all in our own little love-our-own-writing mode here, sorry.
I'm not saying make drastic changes (see above post), but this is something that comes up over and over again. If you feel like it's just a bunch of members being babies and taking it too seriously, then thats fine, be snide about it all you want. But that opinion is far from a consensus here.

ok while i DO like the idea of changing it to a 1-10 voting system, yeah, having people do more then hit a number isn't going to work here, i fear - i mean, i have had stories with thousands of hits and gotten less then a dozen votes on them, so like Alan says, making it harder isn't really fruitful.
ps - Gav? what about developing a DirtyMartini device of some sort not sure what it is, but sometimes, i feel the need for one... maybe it could ad random bad puns to everyones posts or even stories? *giggles* and yes, i love you too, Alan *blows kisses*
