ive never seen a poll get to 150 votes so it looks like its staying

If you go through the poll results the most votes a poll got was 185, and that was which Wii-Sports game you like most. I don't think a poll like this has any chance of getting that many votes, let alone making it to 200. I hope that doesn't mean that the update has no chance of being removed!

Update bad! I liked skimming the new topics on the homepage everyday. Allowed a good quick lookover of whats new and happening on the majority of the site. Now you have to pop on your hard hat and dig in the forums. I'm not built for that kinda attention-span!

Edit: Also! Also! It gives over fortnight old seemingly coma-state threads place of honor on the front page, just because it has a few pages. Does that bug anyone else? It bugs me. I count for 3 people by the way.

No! please get rid off it, I prefer it the way it was before, every latest post should be displayed there, not just 'popular' and 'wii-related'. Then what about the people asking for help? they'll never get answered! Bring back the old-school.

I agree! One of the great things about MyWii is it's ease of use, it's simplicity. This new way has complicated things a bit. I don't think it's best to confuse the members of MyWii anymore than they already are

Ok. That's good. For those of you who are new or don't understand this poll, here's the lowdown:

On the Main page, the discussion you see there are only the popular discussions (when you click in a discussion "Wii Related") which appear here. If you take a look at the "Forums" link, there are many discussions here you don't see on the "Main" page.

The old way, before the update, any new discussion that someone created, or any response to a discussion that was made, instantly went to the top of the "Main" page. Most of us believe that this is the best way to handle the discussions, and that no one will miss out on having responses/questions answered. Vote "NO!" for this way.

Omi said: Well, I'm kinda wondering who would say yes!

I'm surprised that so many people have said that they like it. I'm wondering if everyone realises that in saying yes, you are saying you like it this new way. You say no if you want it back the way it was...



maybe someone should re-word the poll choices to:
YES - Keep the new changes
NO - Bring back the old stuff!

i am all for making improvements to mywii, but this is somewhat a step back. it was working nicely before.

I don't like this new update.

If a thread is popular it will always appear on the main page because people with regularly check and respond to it.

If a thread sucks, then it will quickly disappear off the list.

Let the people decide which thread stays or goes, and not leave it up to a script.

Return it to how it was! A button doesnt make something popular! Discussion does! And If we cant see the discussion then how can it ever be popular!

Also People are confused about the question! You didnt word the poll correctly! Look at cmpa's message. He is against it but says Keep it which worries me that those figures are incorrect!

The way it worked before was perfect. I always liked seeing new discussions on the main page as well. Having to click on "Forums" to find new discussions is annoy, plus the fact that you continually have to click on the last page number to catch up with the discussion.

No. It's a pain. I like going from the Home page to check threads, it looks cleaner, less messy. Now I keep jumping from the forum page to the home page. Too much extra effort for my little hands to handle!

I guess I can understand why it's been done. It is a Wii site afterall, so it makes sense to have all the Wii only related threads on the main page. It sure would be better to hide all our silly little non-Wii threads from visitors to this site, some of them may scare them off!

But those non-Wii, and lesser threads are the 'backbone' of this site. They are what make it a little community and not just a Wii site. Hide them away from main view and it makes it feel all cold.

Okay guys, lay it down straight -
There is a new update, that keeps only the Wii Related pages and most "popular" pages on the Home Page of mywii,
It stops certain threads from appearing on the front home page
