      The game has bugs in it, and the current devs don't seem to care. We need new devs!

      Devs have little to nothing to do with it. They don't make decisions like this. Blame the committee that decides where to build a bridge, not the civil engineer who makes sure it doesn't fall down. A dev doesn't get any say in how the system works. That's not the job of a developer.

        It annoys me that when it shows you have an unread post in a thread, it takes you to the NEWEST post, not where you last left off. That part is a bit annoying, especially when they are on different pages.

        Mine doesn't do that.

                I was talking about ML in my thing about it jumping to the newest post instead of where I left off.

                    I paginate. Makes the site load faster, especially on a phone.

                      I just like logically breaking it up, and it's easier to remember a post was halfway down on page 4 than to go hunting for it in one long stream.

                        @thanksaj that's kinda true. I do find that I can find things again more easily. Although I do enjoy the constant stream, constant update approach too. But on 2,000 post threads, it gets to be a mess.

                          Exactly. There is actually a thing scientists have created as a label for people who can't remember the answer to a question but they remember how to find it. I believe it was called the Google effect but I may be wrong. Like remembering that the answer to someone's question is on page 2, third link down of a given search in Google, but not remembering the exact answer. Used to happen to people long before Google but it was second paragraph on page 67 of this book. Remembering where and how to find it without remembering the actual item.

                            What you are describing is the "book effect." Humans naturally (or evolutionarily or environmentally) are conditioned to be able to recall locations in media like books to find something that they had seen before.

                            The Google effect is a similar one but one about the ability to backtrack search or link results to find information. So related, but the exact description you are giving is one that goes back thousands of years.

                                Hmmm... I like the stream but I am now going to see if I can't find the pages option.

                                  I have no clue where the setting is off the top of my head...

                                    That should take you to the page.

                                      Yep found it shortly after I posted. I guess I had never dug into the settings too far... ML is much more responsive now that I've turned pagination on.

                                        So how does it look when you have zero reviews on SW? I haven't even attempted to tackle that yet as its hard enough for me to get a customer to find time to do a case study, let alone have them go create a SW profile to go write a review for us.

                                          Do not ask customers not on SW to join SW just to submit reviews. I got furious/livid at another vendor who did just that.
