so this roadmap to the future thread has some great ideas for future improvements like the time extension @periwinkle brought up . obviously getting the site running properly again is the main objective for the time being, but i am wondering what the best way to discuss & keep track of such possible improvements is going forward. i am posting this in the suggestion & ideas part of the forum as a question, b/c this is where it seems to belong? it looks a little cluttered here too. the long & short lists dont seem to be in use, and masterj's THE LIST is unfortunately just a collection of dead links. i dont know how to solve this, but it would be nice to have an easily accessible collection of ideas for a) discussion & b) order of importance for implementation. maybe the long & short lists could be reinstated again? should there be a voting system for ideas? should this even be publicly discussed?
i know that there really are much more pressing issues atm, it would just be a shame for good ideas to be buried and forgotten in some badly organised threads. so for starters & the record i would just nominate peri's time extension suggestion above. but i am sure there is so much more.
& happy new year everyone.

Great ideas, Once.

If the answer to public discussion is "Yes", then maybe a Discord server? I've used it before (never set it up), and it seems to be a good solution for discussions and idea repository.

Maybe down the road though -- as you say, probably more basic issues being solved at the moment.

yes. that is how it looks too, a massive amount of work for sure. i dont know how forums work. but maybe there is a way to resuscitate those links? they are pointing towards an older forum, is that it?

yeah, my guess is it got broken when we moved to the new forum infrastructure. The threads are all still out there somewhere
